Matrix Revolutions. The worst film I have ever seen. It used to be Kill Bill 1, simply because that film bored me to tears with it's self-knowing references to everything under the sun except it's own goddamn story. But Matrix Revolutions ruined the trilogy for me. I'd thought it might redeem Reloaded. But it just buggered it up. At least in Reloaded you have the freeway and that Chateau fight (which is much more interesting than the Smith fight; I swear Keanu Reeves only did two moves whilst filming that, the rest seems to be all CGI). Revolutions has nothing. That fight with Smith at the end? Boring. The end itself? Wet and anti-climactic.
I keep meaning to watch it again, in the hopes that I'll find something, just one thing, to enjoy. But I keep putting it off, because I don't enjoy pain.

When I saw Reloaded I was sitting in the cinema thinking 'ohmygodwhataretheydoingtotheMatrix???' over and over again. Even worse, everyone else in the place didn't seem to have noticed how bad it was! I still haven't plucked up the courage to watch Revolutions. I know all too well that it will be awful.

I'm not bitter at ALL.
Got to agree with you there for the most part. The first few episodes of season 3 were good, but after they got rid of the brilliant JMS, it bombed. We've not even seen season 4 in the UK, so it looks like Sky TV agree that it's crap and didn't bother buying it.
People said at the start "Oh no - Hercules in Space". It took Sorbo a while, but he got there eventually. Just one scrap after another, with the excuses for the fight scenes getting thinner by the episode. Shame really, started well, and had a really great forum as well (eh Lillius?). Perhaps it still has a great forum - not been there for ages.

Harlan Ellison walked away from The Starlost because they turned it into such crap and refused to listen to him. Dig a little deeper.

JMS? He had nothing to do with AnDumeDuh.
It sucked from the beginning. Here are a few things I have had to say about it in the past-
Excerpts from the "Andromeda and Mutant X Cancelled" thread:
"Crap stories, crap acting and crap production. Who gives a damn about Sorbo's ego? That only made it proof positive that you cannot polish a turd."
"I truly have found the best parts of Andromeda-Generally the minute after the show ends, or the minute before when I remember that taking an hour long power dump would be far more interesting."
"Oh and I thought of another good part of Andromeda-Back before it was on the air and only the synopsis was being bantered around. Seemed like a good idea at the time.....
Oops, time to take another power dump. The subject of Andromeda seems to have a laxative effect.........."
Yep-Worst Sci-Fi ever.

I gotta say, I was a HUGE fan of Andromeda, it almost instantly became one of my favorite shows, and I didn't even manage to see the first half of the pilot!(so I was rather confused for a while till I managed to see it)
If you didn't like the show, fine, but it certainly wasn't universally terrible until the latter half of season 2(and season 3 on was just astoundingly bad, hell, even one of the actors quit because he couldn't stand it or his character anymore after they butchered it/him)
As for worst sci fi, I don't know. Stuff I (mostly) didn't enjoy: Ep1/2, Indepence Day, The Day After Tommorow(thats sci fi, or fantasy, relax though, I saw it for free with friends while we mocked it :)), Event Horizon, Matrix 3(and lesserly matrix 2 due to 3 sucking). I really can't come up with many things not mentioned that I thought was horrible.
Oh yeah, Mutant X, not SO bad with the execution(I've seen a few eps here and there), but way WAY too ripped off x-men to get any real enjoyment out of it.

OK, we're talking egos here - so I'll say I hate what they did to thew movie Stargate in the form of the Ego-Stroke for Harry Dean Anderson called "Stargate - SG1".
Not really worst all in all, but I got tired of nearly all the stories revolving around McNeil.
Dean's preformance cannot hold a candle to Kurt Russel.
but as a wise man once said - "Opinions vary" - heh, now where is that line from? I know, do you?!

just have to voice my opinion. i thought matrix revolutions was okay. it was disappointing, but i think the writers were seriously backed into a corner because expectations were so high. regardless of how they ended it, most people probably would have thought it should have been different. i thought kill bill vol 1 was a lot of fun. it is a completely over the top kind of 70s style action movie. i enjoyed it because it was so outrageous. anyhoo, just my humble opinion.
as for bad sci fi, any of the movies shown on MST3K (not the commentary by the guys, just the movies themselves) are absolutely terrible. who authorizes these things?
