I liked Bruce in the Red movies. The movies themselves are fun throwaways, but nothing special.

Apart from Keaton’s, the Batman movies are an utter trainwreck.
I know they’re not connected but it is a franchise.

I watched The Matrix Reloaded recently. Not nearly as bad as I expected, I even liked it and thought it was pretty good. I'm not very hard on movies though. The rave scene was fine. The bowling pin sound effect was pretty goofy, but didn't bother me.

I definitely agree with Pirates and Die Hard. I don’t agree with The Matrix - the Battle of the Docks is still an epic battle sequence - one of the best action sequences ever.

I’d like to add Iron Man. Those sequels suck so much.

LotR too. The original trilogy is near perfect. The Hobbit trilogy is terrible.

TV - True Blood. Those last 2 seasons are near unwatchable. The first few seasons are so much fun.

Video Games - Sonic. No great games since Sonic 3.
