Matrix (never bothered watching the sequels). Once they did the 2nd slo-mo scene that was 1 too many. I think I have watched most of it by now in bits and pieces. And it was a ripoff of Dark City to which gets me more pissed at it.
And now to have people faint
Lord of the Rings - it seems nicely filmed and really don't have a problem with the acting I saw but the storyline
I haven't read the books but I'd heard it was a lushly filmed fantasy story so when it came on cable I sat down in front of the tv prepared to be wowed and the voiceover starts at the beginning of the movie - I think my jaw might have hit the floor. When that part was over, I went - oh brother, this is what this is about, you've got to be kidding me. Tried to give it a try anyway but lasted about 20 min before I decided it was a waste of my time (and suspension of disbelief). I watched some more of one of the movies some time later - some scene going up/down a long set of stairs but only lasted 10 min.
