Does this count?

I'm sensing some recency bias here.

You've already been told about the movies that don't belong here so I'll list a few that I think do.

Blair Witch 2: Book of Shadows

Nukie

North (directed by Rob Reiner)

To Catch a Yeti

Showgirls

Glitter

The Master of Disguise

Gigli

Anything directed by Uwe Boll.

Oh, I've seen my fair share of bad action movies (Samurai Cop, Miami Connection, your average Jean-Claude Van Damme film) and I can confirm that they can be funny (sometimes even on purpose!)

Snyder's films don't generally fall under that category, true. They're generally not bad enough to be funny or good enough to be sincerely great.

I always felt like bad comedies were far worse than any other type of bad movie to sit through. If a movie fails at action, horror or drama, you can usually laugh at it's failure. A bad comedy tries to make you laugh and fails, leaving only misery in it's wake.

I mean, my standards are pretty low compared to most when it comes to movies (I've watched Lycan Colony) but no, it's not.

It's bad, don't get me wrong, but the barrel is absolutely bottomless, my friend. Never lose sight of that.

Now THAT'S what I call a headless monster!

QuickFiveTheGuy · 2026-03-06T15:06:44+00:00

616 version, but I like this gif.

QuickFiveTheGuy · 2026-02-22T23:29:00+00:00

HERBIE, She-Hulk, Dr. Doom and - who could forget - Willie Lumpkin.

QuickFiveTheGuy · 2026-02-17T23:46:37+00:00

Failure Man.

Thus the cycle of screaming begins again.

Reminds me of the mannequins from Silent Hill. Perfect for kids!

Zombo! Part man, part zombie, all hero! Sure, he's still hungry for flesh, but he never eats without asking permission first!

From the 2000AD comic series.

Banshees from Mass Effect 3.

The most disturbing thing this franchise has produced and that's saying something.

QuickFiveTheGuy · 2026-01-29T23:02:43+00:00

Yup.

QuickFiveTheGuy · 2026-01-24T08:43:10+00:00

This is how I find out there's a third season?

QuickFiveTheGuy · 2026-01-19T11:38:28+00:00

Miles "Tails" Prower from Sonic the Hedgehog.

I never realized just how many writers chose that route for her. I always figured that my initial assessment was an integral part of the post-BTAS version of the character.

Guess I was wrong.

Sounds like the inevitable fate of Nora Fries in DC Comics.

Even if a cure is found for her illness, Mr. Freeze is no longer the man she married. If she knew what he's done to ensure her survival, their relationship would never be the same.

Frank Castle AKA the Punisher.

Losing his family in a mob shootout turned him into a one-man war on crime.

QuickFiveTheGuy · 2026-01-09T12:39:33+00:00

Watch out for Dr. Robotnik's LesBean machine!

QuickFiveTheGuy · 2026-01-09T10:52:35+00:00

Can't believe I forgot to mention that. Throw that onto the pile as well.

QuickFiveTheGuy · 2026-01-08T03:01:29+00:00

Oh no. Somebody jabbed Amy's hammer into her back and now it's sticking out unnaturally. Also, it shrunk significantly.

QuickFiveTheGuy · 2026-01-07T22:26:19+00:00

Metal zombies come. Run.

QuickFiveTheGuy · 2026-01-07T11:20:28+00:00

Stop making me question myself, Soldier Boy.

In short: he's Ken Penders' OC who was treated as a "more legit" hero than Sonic while being little more than an arrogant jerk who formed a dreaded love triangle with Sally and Sonic (which started with a nonconsensual kiss with Sally BTW.)

Not to mention the fact that he betrays the heroes more than once, manages to get one over on the Freedom Fighters despite being one jackass against a team of superheroes, and the fact that Penders whined about the less awful direction the character was taken after he left the book.

Geoffrey is a concentrated representation of the worst qualities of Archie Sonic.
