Actually, the biggest tragedy about Max Steel was that it was based on a bad remake of a cartoon that was fairly good. The original version was that the protagonist, Josh McGraph was a college student who played extreme sports. After an accident gave him superhuman abilities and finding out that his adopted father was a high ranking officer in an American spy organization, he decided to join the organization as a super powered agent, going by the name Max Steel.

As soon as I heard about the Jem movie I knew it was going to end badly and as a fan of the show that hurt. It was an 80's cartoon that ran for only three seasons and had no reboots in the decades after like other Hasbro properties (Transformers, G.I Joe, My Little Pony) that would have kept it fresh in people's minds. I always felt they should have gone the MLP route and reboot it as an updated cartoon, build up a new generation of fans and THEN do a movie. Poor Jem. 😢

[@AttnDefDis_]

Or they could just leave that property alone and come up with new and original ideas. That cartoon was/is great!

[@adamb89]

It's one thing to take creative liberties with the source material, but with Jem they completely disregarded it. Jem's stage performance, as well as her bandmates, WERE holograms. I guess the writers thought they could just completely leave that whole macguffin out of the film, but that'd be like having a Superman movie where he's just a regular dude with no powers.

[@reneekyndra9771]

I went to see it at my local cheap seats and it's a generic movie. If it hadn't been made as a Jem movie, it wouldn't have fared so bad.

[@mattruffin8643]

It was kind of a, “If you build it, they will come” effort where the guys behind it had no real connection or love for the source and just figured they’d make money by trying to take advantage of a demographic by slapping the name “Jem” on it. They picked the wrong people to make a Jem movie.

I'm a little sad the misunderstood gem "Last Action Hero" wasn't on here. I worked at a little run down one screen theatre when it came out and it was the closest we got to a new release the whole time I worked there because it was bumped out of first run theaters a week after it was released. For decades, I thought my appreciation for the film was based on my sentimentality of watching it in my beloved run down theatre, but I watched it recently to see if it was as bad as everyone else remembers, only to find out it was better than I remembered, and WAY ahead of it's time.

(This has probably already been mentioned, but here goes...) Michael Cimino's follow up to his critically acclaimed movie, "The Deer Hunter" (1978) was the notorious "Heaven's Gate" (1980). Running 228 minutes, the movie was so wildly panned that it was pulled (if I remember correctly) after just one day. Not only did critics and audiences alike found it incredibly slow-paced and boring, the movie eventually came under fire for it's mistreat meant of animals, including 4 horses who died during the making of the film (legend has it that one of them was literally blown up; not sure if that's true, but that was what was reported at the time).

I worked a couple of seasons on a terrible, terrible tv series called "Equal Justice", which was unbelievably bad. I died of boredom just being part of it. The weirdness was heightened by the fact that several of the regulars on the show were actually on the edge of becoming successful and famous, but I've never heard any of them ever admit to being any part of it. Sarah Jessica Parker was about to jump into the stratosphere with Sex and the City, and Joe Morton was going to be in some smash hit movies... I think I saw a rerun once, and I couldn't even watch it, it was so awful. They had a bunch of "guest" directors who did not help the show, and spent all their time telling everyone about the last big thing they had done. Everyone was embarrassed by that turkey... It's always been amazing to me that no matter what, there has to be some magical alchemy to film making, since no matter how many success "boxes" you check off, there has to be that perfect mix of people and timing that just comes together.

Cage is such a character offscreen, that he might make for an interesting biopic subject. And no, "Unbearable Weight" does not count. It's a meta comedy. I have to respect someone who gives his all to whatever he's in. You can question his selectivity all day, but don't you dare question his work ethic. And if he loves what he does for a living, works hard at it, and gets well paid to do it, more power to him: not everyone gets to say that. I'm not exactly a Nicolas Cage fan, but I do admire him for that much.

Nowadays that Netflix doles out crap, yet as long as the powers that be say different, who are we to argue. I remember Uwe Bolls boxing debauch, a couple of magazines-- in the horror film industry, couldn't call enough attention to make bank off of it. Lionsgate, like Uwe, didn't care enough to run a proper press job on it, and it fell flat. Always puts things onto perspective.
