Top 10 Movies That Experienced Massive Backlash


they’re the movies some continue to love
and others love to hate so enjoy it stop
crying
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
movies with massive backlash everyone in
North Korea will be watching for this
list we are taking a look at movies that
were highly acclaimed when they first
came out but have since received an
adverse reaction from a large section of
the audience I know this seems like a
scary thing it’s not just because the
film incurs backlash doesn’t necessarily
mean it’s bad or undeserving of its
initial praise you get me what I need
I’ll see to it you get your legs back
when you rotate home the universal love
these films once had however is now
contested by equally passionate distaste
however we’re excluding films that
received backlash from their directors
writers or people they might have been
based on so I had a fight and though
your Black Panther Party number 10
Shakespeare in Love Romeo Romeo
a young man Verona a comedy by William
Shakespeare as it is a well-made funny
and romantic film Shakespeare in Love
would probably get much less grief had
it come out in a lesser year for movies
you will know tell
as I love you and as you love me you
will find my breast and buy me a boys
wig unfortunately its lasting appeal has
been diminished by the fact that it
allegedly stole best picture from Saving
Private Ryan to my joushi my lord
many feel Steven Spielberg’s War epic
has held up better over time even
Harrison Ford looked displeased when he
opened the Oscar envelope it strange to
meet like Romeo and Juliet Shakespeare
in love might have started as a comedy
but its lifespan has ended in tragedy
number nine the Twilight franchise what
does that mean
after Stephenie Meyer’s bestseller got
the big screen treatment half of the
human population rejoiced while the
other half was indifferent believe that
the more attention Twilight got and the
more MTV Movie Awards at one the more
annoyed people became I don’t care that
annoyance quickly turned to feverish
anger as if the franchise was Satan’s
spawn while even once diehard fans are
starting to admit Twilight received more
success than it deserves
it’s also possible we’ve given it more
hate than it deserves why did you hate
me so much when we met at least we can
all agree Bella does not deserve any
happiness we shouldn’t be friends you
really should have figured that out a
little earlier number eight The Hobbit
an unexpected journey I’m looking for
someone to share in an adventure
although most of us knew the Hobbit
didn’t need to be three movies we were
just excited to revisit middle-earth and
went along on Bilbo’s unexpected journey
at first it was fun to see Gandalf and
Gollum again after sitting through the
trilogy’s following chapters however
Peter Jackson was officially trying our
patience because the Hobbit began as a
relatively short children’s novel many
concurred this drawn-out adaptation had
more filler than a never ending soap
opera not the stuff of legend
perhaps a director’s cut or better yet a
fan cut is an order I wish you all the
luck in the world
really do what was also unexpected was
the mixed result over the new 48 frames
per second tech used with many
moviegoers finding it less than an
improvement show beard number seven
signs cares and Monster Jam my root
canal classroom bloggers just as M night
Shyamalan has endured one of the most
brutal backlashes of all time so have
several of his movies the aliens cat
reader lunch
signs was an enormous critical and
financial success when it came out
seemingly cementing shamah lens legacy
as a master storyteller won’t let
anything bad happen to you
can you each return then folks started
to think about the film’s plot and
realized several things didn’t add up
don’t think I like water it’s hard to
believe we initially overlooked the idea
that water and puny weapons defeated
these superiorly intelligent aliens
swing away with this in mind many people
can’t get through signs now without
laughing hysterically
number six Forrest Gump a box-office
sensation and winner of six Oscars
Forrest Gump remains one of the most
iconic quotable and beloved films of the
past few decades congratulations how do
you feel in recent years though it’s
also gotten a fair deal of flak part of
that is because it won the Best Picture
prize over pulp fiction and the
Shawshank Redemption both of which have
aged like fine wine critics have
additionally condemned the film
sentimentality and the title characters
dimness I’m not a smart man but I know
what love is well a movies like a box of
chocolates you never know what you’re
gonna get my mom always said life was
like a box of chocolates you never know
what you’re going to get number five
transformers you think I’m shallow
fanboys didn’t know what to think when
it was announced that Michael Bay would
be helming the live-action Transformers
movie but they knew they’d see it anyway
my name is Optimus Prime we are
autonomous robotic organisms from the
planet Cybertron although it was
irrefutable mindless entertainment the
masses were sucked in by the
blockbusters solid action humor and
visuals you got a high rise double pump
carburetor that’s pretty impressive Sam
double pun it squirts the fuel in so you
can go faster oh you go fast with each
passing sequel however it became clear
that bay had nothing new to offer he
simply doesn’t seem to realize that
making a movie louder doesn’t make it
better
by getting this now all the Transformers
films blend together as one ceaseless
array of mind-numbing explosions before
gravity right out of the airlock people
hailed gravity as a cinematic triumph
admit one thing can’t beat the view
everyone was universally blown away by
the film special effects but some
complain that the story was as hollow as
space North America just lost their
Facebook they also argued that the
smaller the screen you watched it on the
less spectacular the experience would be
so is gravity just flashy IMAX porn
while the visuals admittedly outshine
the dialogue many people still look
beyond the film stunning surface to see
the astronomical body of emotions at its
core
number three crash look I know what you
did was the right thing okay
I was humiliated
although Brokeback mountains seemed
preordained to win the 78th Academy
Award for Best Picture a select group of
people were rooting for Paul Haggis Azaz
omble drama about racial tension to pull
an upset but if the white person sees
two black men walking towards her and
she turns and walks in the other
direction she’s a racist right well the
little movie that could crashed the
Oscars and its supporters immediately
jumped ship now when people discuss the
most unworthy Best Picture winners crash
is typically the easy answer with many
calling it traffic for dummies I mean
you’re the expert here but to me it
means false if you’re one of those few
people that stand by the Academy’s
choice though we won’t judge you and
that’s evidence of racial discrimination
did you notice that our waitress was
black number two
Titanic eject awesome
rooster would be hit it’s possible for a
movie to become too successful Titanic
being an evident example the film broke
all kinds of records at the box office
and the Oscars but James Cameron’s
unsinkable hit didn’t stop there for the
longest time it was impossible to go
anywhere without seeing Titanic being
referenced once the world finally got
sick of it they really really got sick
of it be that as it may
chances are you saw Titanic in theaters
multiple times any film that
accomplishes that must have done
something right before we unveil our
number one pick here are a few honorable
mentions
I taught mayor Hartsfield out of this
same book I sure do thank you Miss Daisy
it’s not a Christmas present good
morning Starshine the earth says hello
oh sorry
number one avatar who’d you expect
numbnuts the bigger the movie the bigger
the backlash
seeing how avatar is currently the
highest-grossing film ever it suffered a
behemoth backlash unlike any other
outstanding paralleling Titanic avatar
has gone from reigning at the box office
to being the most heavily criticized
entity online this is a police for
proves to be hurt and sometimes
bloggers and commenters alike can’t
stand the notion that a movie with such
simplistic themes and a cliched story
made over two billion dollars discount
regardless there are still plenty of pro
blue people who proudly defend the film
guaranteeing this franchise is just
getting warmed up
do you agree with our list no problem I
can open a bottle opener bottle stop
what other movies have undergone a
notable backlash in the future can
always change for more entertaining top
