The Pink Panther 2006
We rag on Shawn Levy for propping up his latest directorial effort on the vacant charisma of Ryan Reynolds and Taika Waititi, sure. But when this early in your career you get to play around in the comedic sandbox with such talents as Steve Martin, Kevin Kline, and Jean Reno, can you really be blamed for what follows? It’s all downhill from here.

Elvis 2022
There used to be a roller coaster at Cedar Point called the Mean Streak—all wooden, antiquated, rickety from the get-go, headache-inducing with no build-up or pay-off. One long annoying ride that somehow still attracted visitors, despite its all-too-literal name. That said, Elvis at next year’s Oscars: Best Sound Mixing, Best Sound Editing, Best Film Editing, Best Costume Design, Best Production Design, Best Makeup and Hair Styling, Best Actor in a Leading Role, and Best Director.
