I have to say, having just looked over his filmography, it's much more varied and intersting than I would've assumed.

Worst Fifth Film In A Series

Asked my household this question and the 12 year old was quick to get 1 and 2 of the results here right on the money. lol.

I haven't seen a lot of these, from the ones I know I probably would have gone with Batman & Robin. B&R appears to be a 'so bad it's good' thing, over-the-top camp like the Adam West TV series, but somehow it still manages to want to take itself seriously and becomes pretty unbearable as a result.
I've only seen Crystal Skull once but I actually liked it a lot when I did. No, it's not half as amazing as Raiders or Crusade, but I certainly enjoyed it and loved seeing the return of Marian & that happy end.
I wouldn't say I love it but don't hate Phantom Menace all that much - there's nice design in it and I liked some introductions such as C3PO.That one theory about Jar Jar actually being a dark Jedi master actually makes a lot of sense, if they'd establish that as canon I'm convinced that it would give that movie an enormous quality boost.
Of those fourth films I've seen, the one I liked best is actually Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. I'm not a Potter fan but when some Potterfan-friends made me see all of the movies I thought this was the best one by far. I really liked the first and the seventh film too & thought they wrapped things up nicely with the last. Didn't care much for the other half of the series. Many seem to favour the third but I thought that one was really boring.

Me and my mate went to see B&R stoned off our heads aged 18 and thought it was fucking hilarious, so I'm very affectionate towards it. I have never watched and will never watch it again.

Urgh that was one of the worst bits.

I thought it was more or less confirmed that that was Lucas' original intention, but he chickened out after seeing the public's reaction to Jar-Jar, which was pretty spineless of him if true.

it's nonsense or at least not seeded in any way in the first film - jar jar's accidental work towards the plot progressing is presented exactly the same as anakin's.i was thinking recently of polling the worst, most nonsensical and least necessary attempts by the prequels to set up or fanservice stuff from the original films. but then i couldn't decide whether to include rogue one and the forthcoming han solo nonsense.

i would happily vote in that poll fwiw, there's a lot to choose from!

haha okay maybe i'll go through my notes and make that one happen too
― Doctor Casino, Friday, 10 November 2017 14:40 (six years ago) link
the one fanservice omission that's really inexplicable in the prequels is that there's no cameo from the millennium falcon

star wars prequels: most embarrassing and hacky attempt at fan-service and plot resolution

i listened to the How Did This Get Made? for Batman & Robin today. so many lolz, this movie is so terrible. perhaps the apex of the degradation in this film is the moment where Batman slides down the back of a dinosaur, literally like he is Fred Flintstone at the start of an episode of the Flintstones. holy shit, this is a thing that happened in this movie.
then i found this. lol, perfect:

i still hold that view but the series did give us Nicki Minaj saying "she's a mammoth, of course" so it isn't completely worthless

Texas Chainsaw Massacre 4 might be one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I think if more people had seen it, they would agree. I watched it on late night cable while insanely baked with a friend of mine in 1999.

some people love it, and it has some of the most adventurous dream sequences of the series
i kinda hate it and like it

It was screened and shelved before McConaughey and Renee Zellweger were huge stars, then re-cut and re-released with a different name once they became famous.
It is...abysmal.

my brother is the person in this video getting disemboweled: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tTnm2hDVJU
the video gets shown throughout the park which is cool.
but because of his 30 seconds of fame here, he watched all of the TCM movies in the entire franchise in like a week. (dude isn't even a horror buff). he said he saw some "shit", and mentioned 4 as the nadir
