Not one comment in here about Lord of the Rings.
Which I agree with. Amazing movies. Glad everyone's on the same page.
For me, it's James Cameron's Avatar. Visually stunning, especially for its time, but the story has to be the most cliche, predictable, boring, lazy piece of writing to ever have existed. It's like they held an environmentally conscious 11 year old at gun point and made them write a story. The cigar chomping military guy working for corpos wants to pilfer a beautiful planet for its resources with disregard for the native populations that live there. Where have I seen that before? Oh yeah, ALL AROUND ME, EVERY FUCKING GOD DAMN DAY. Get an original idea.
Fuck this stupid piece of shit dumbass movie. It's intellectually insulting. It's a disgrace.

The cinematic releases of LOTR were good, but the directors cuts are way too long and quite boring at times ๐
The director's cuts are amazing, but they are only for diehard fans of the LOTR lore
