Yogi Bear: The Worst Movie Ever?

The 'worst movie ever' is a term often thrown around when terrible movies are released. The upcoming 3D film Yogi Bear takes its inspiration form a classic cartoon and apparently wrecks it. The acting seems staid and the jokes in the commercials are embarrassing. It could possibly be the worst feature film in history.

My personal favorite, of course, is Tommy Wiseau's masterpiece The Room. Yet at least The Room has some redeeming features, mainly the fact that it is so bad, it is good. For example, please enjoy this quick summary of the movie:

They just don't make movies like this anymore.

LOL!!! Absolutely!!

A Roger Corman classic!!

Anybody remember the old Buster Crabbe serials, Buck Rogers?
Although not officially a movie, the awfulness of it was real enough.

IMHO, what's not to like? Buncha hot naked chicks slinking around, while macho guys blow up stuff with hand held nukes. Doesn't get much better than that.

Agreed. Some great subversive humor (e.g. boot camp training with a sadistic seargant), co-ed military showers (YEAH!), a very-hot Dina Meyer, and some really great bug-vs-human battles. Personally, I NEVER get tired of this movie. Great, great fun.

The television series from 79-80 was awful too; so at least they were faithful to the original.

LOL!!

Only movie I ever walked out on was that gay ass movie starring Patrick Swayze... Wang Foo or something like that.

I kept waiting for the gay characters to turn into the guys from RoadHouse... but it was a homo movie as far as I know because I couldn’t take it after 25 minutes and all of us walked out (Base movie theater at Lajes Field, Azoes)

I wasn’t a big Hanna Barbera fan. I liked Warner Bros cartoons.

[Happy Rain]

Saw the trailer and ever nice butt kisser Boo Boo had a tude—lost all reality for me there so no plans to see the wreck.

Smarter than the average veiw-aire!

I didn't think The Perfect Storm was that awful, but I'll admit to two significant prejudices in that respect. One is that I lived there, and lived through it and no one who did so will ever forget it. The second is that although she struggled a bit with the working-class Massachusetts accent (who doesn't, except for us natives?) Diane Lane is a gorgeous woman. Clooney's performance was stilted and forced, but I thought Mark Wahlberg (another native) was pretty good.

One of the best MST3K episodes, ever.

[Skooz]

Worst movie ever is The Trial of Billy Jack. That is inarguable.

I’m sure Yogi Bear is Doctor Zhivago by comparison.

“Howard the Duck II?”

There is a Howard the Duck II? Hmmm learn something new everyday.

[Lockbar]

I saw a billboard for the Yogi movie and I thought it might be cute. Then I went to you-tube and watched the preview. So bad its almost difficult to describe. They try to mix computer animated animals with live action humans. Doesn’t work in any way possible.

[SIDENET]

LOL, I remember the jokes about “Fatgirl”.

[crusher]

To think I had successfully purged “The Piano” from the memory banks and you had to go a revive the memory. thanks a lot.

I just wanted the gal to drown with her piano.

Any movie with a naked Harvey Keitel is vomit inducing.

[Norman Bates]

It needed to be 30-45 minutes shorter. Would’ve been a much more compelling film then.

[crusty old prospector]

Maybe you should pour salt in old wounds and stream it tonight on Netflix? It is possible that you have now matured enough to appreciate the depth of this epic piece of cinema.

I have only walked out on two films...How High and Xanadu.
