Sonic the Hedgehog - If they hadn't reworked his design. That movie was hated & fans wanted it canceled way before it's release.

You didn't mention Disney's delayed, controversial and still not released live-action reboot of "Snow White", which nobody wants and I hope is never released.

VENOM had the writer from 50 SHADES OF GREY (who is also directing THE LAST DANCE) MORBIUS had the writers from GODS OF EGYPT (Who are also behind MADAME WEB) And KRAVEN THE HUNTER has the writers from TRANSFORMERS: THE LAST KNIGHT AVI ARAD doomed this cinematic universe the same way he doomed TASM series

Furries found _Cats_ to be repulsive, which is _not_ a good sign.

'Cats' hit the 'uncanny valley' - faces were too human, female cats had breasts, the scale of bodies was wrong. No wonder it creeped people out!

"I really hope they make a movie version of Cats" said no one ever in the entire universe.

The only decent thing about The Emoji movie is that Jordan Peele was so offended over being offered the role of Poop Emoji, that he decided to quit acting, and focus on directing instead. As a result, he created some of the greatest horror movies in recent years.

To be fair, most of these films actually ended up being bad anyway.

Cats was already hated

I actually liked “The Hunt”. It’s action packed and darkly hilarious. It’s like Hunger Games exclusively for adult viewers. I think it’s overhated.

Twilight was hated by my 3 younger sisters for very specific reasons. 1st sister a nurse, the entire series encouraged self destructive teenage behavior. 2nd sister theater major, the lead character is an obvious Mary Sue, the dialogue is lame and the premise is stupid. 3rd sister worked at a theater at the time and frequently read books, same criticism as 2nd sister about the source material and after seeing a bunch of teenage and middle age woman screaming and talking dirty going to the premiere really hated Twilight.

"50 Shades of Gray" is basically "Twilight" fanfic

*Cats looked so stupid the second I saw the trailer for it. And there’s no way the 2016 ghostbusters had more hate than cats.*

Battleship was stupid! As a Navy man there's no way that one guy would have been allowed in the Navy, much less an officer after the crimes he committed early on!

I really don’t think Ghostbusters deserved all the flack it received. One thing I _will_ say though, is that Chris Hemsworth’s character was unnecessary.

Cats was a train wreck of legends. 😂🎉

Back to Black. While the movie isn't out in America yet, many people have criticized the movie for exploiting Amy Winehouse’s pain and trauma for entertainment and that we already have a documentary that treats her with humanity and empathy. The still shots weren't any better either.

For me Joker,TMNT(2014),Amazing Spider-Man were pretty good so they didn't deserve any hate.I didn't care for Ghostbusters (2016).

I should point out that very few people in Japan including GITS’s mangaka had any problem and were actually thrilled with the idea of Johannson playing Major. I mean the movie still sucks but if the Japanese and the series creator were happy about the casting, maybe we should get off our high horse for once.

I don't remember anyone up in arms that a pale Scotsman played a Spartan in 300. People are weird.

You know how sometimes food smells so bad you know it tastes bad, and even if it tastes somewhat better than it smells, the smell is still too off-putting to enjoy it? Same can apply to movies.

The only thing good about Dragon Ball Evolution is that it was so bad it got DB creator Akira Toriyama to become involved in the franchise again. He worked directly with the production team on DBZ Battle of the Gods and everything after it until his passing this year.

They forgot Jem. It was an abomination.

I didn't think half of these movies were that bad. Just my opinion.

Jersey Girl was dead on arrival after the bomb of Gigli.

You forgot JEM AND THE HOLOGRAMS

Movies are hated before their release if the trailer reveals that the canon of a beloved and/or historic franchise is not respected and honoured. If there is a leak indicating a "bait and switch." If a studio defies future paying customers and casts somebody that is universally hated. If there is the slightest hint of pushing social agendas onto audiences. If beloved characters are unceremoniously killed off to make way for a new, diverse cast.

What was great about The Hunt was that main character Crystal didn't give a f*ck.

Fun fact: the emoji movie had a rushed 2 year production which left not enough time to fix the script

To this day, I still don’t understand the hate for the 2014 Turtles movie. The movie is a pretty solid adaptation of them

AVI ARAD has ruined so far... * Daredevil (2003) * The Punisher (2004) * Elektra (2005) * Fantastic Four (2005) * X-Men: The Last Stand * Spider-Man 3 * Bratz (2007) * Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance * The Amazing Spider-Man 2 * Ghost in the Shell (2017) * Venom: Let There Be Carnage * Uncharted (2022) * Morbius And now he's gonna ruin... * Borderlands * Kraven the Hunter * Venom: The Last Dance * The Legend of Zelda movie * Naruto As long Arad lives, there's no hope

Ppl who have never actually read or seen the original 'Ghost in the Shell' clearly didn't know that the Majors character is specifically called 'a western model' cyborg

It’s no joke when I say that Tom Hooper had no idea how visual effects work and doesn’t know much about the anatomy of cats

I loved Battleship 😭😭

I recently saw The Flash online on Amazon Prime (for free, thank God!) and I can safely say I wish Ezra had been arrested wayyy earlier 😅

I thought 2019 CATS was a terrible film, the worst thing ever created! I’m glad that your finally waking up to reality and admitting the truth.

From what I can tell from this list not every story needs an adaptation or remake

Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey too deserves to be mentioned. I mean, turning children's property into the next horror franchise was bound to ruin people's childhoods.

Where's The Marvels and The Little Mermaid those movies had the most disliked trailers hated before they were released

The upcoming Disney Snow White remake starring Rachel Zegler which comes out next year in 2025

I’ve not seen Madame Web, Gods Of Egypt, Dragonball Evolution, Jack and Jill, Battleship, The Last Airbender, Fifty Shades Of Grey, Death Note, Cats and The Emoji Movie. I don’t really remember the hate that some of the films I’ve seen got but I do know for some that I haven’t seen.

The Lone Ranger 2013 should've got a mention.

Sorry homies,don't rush the hate

I will admit Dragonball GT is cannon before I admit Dragonball Evolution exists

I liked gods of Egypt. Was way more fantasy than historically accurate and since race doesn’t seem to matter in casting these days I don’t see the problem.

I think the initial problem with Ghostbusters is it didn’t make any real attempt to recognize the original Ghostbusters movies. A League of Their Own did simply that just by its title alone.

As bad as the Ghostbusters reboot was , Cats was still the worst by far. It definitely deserved #1, even over Emoji and

And where was the "granddaddy" of "hated before release" films, "Hulk" by Ang Lee? An unfinished trailer--that had to be rushed in time for a Super Bowl ad spot--was met with so much hate and derision, that even when more finished and polished trailers were released in the months before the film's release, the damage was done.

That Ghostbusters movie did not deserve all that hate. I don’t get what people’s problem was

6:57 Twilight was not hated before it was released as far as I can tell. And whilst I agree that 5 years was to early for a reboot to write off The Amazing Spider-Man completely is unfair and disdainful.

I actually did not mind the emoji movie for what it was and I was a huge twilight fan and still am so no complaints there.

What’s funny is that a fair few of these movies became popular and/or well loved after they were released and still are. Definitely the epitome of the phrase “never judge a book,” or in this case, a film, “by its cover”

It's amazing how many times "white guys were in it" was used as a reason to hate these movies.

2:35 It's always Fox News I'm not surprised.

Ok but Emoji Movie, Ghost in the Shell, and Ghostbusters 2016 are some of my favorite movies though 😭

I'm sick of The Flash getting a lot of hate over Ezra Miller's crimes and some uneccesary changes. The hatred should be going onto WB for ruining the DCEU since they stupidly rush it instead of waiting 5 years to assemble the Justice League.

I'm sorry I like gods of Egypt but I thought it was a good movie

#1 definitely deserved the preemptive hate. Sony learned their lesson and gave us "Ghostbusters: Afterlife", which was much closer to what the fans originally wanted.

I actually love The Interview 🤣

From my memory, Twilight wasn't hated before it's releases. It was hated after it's releases and became a joke after they divided the last book to copy Harry Potter and Hunger Games who both came out with their part 1 of their last book movie that year.

Ghostbusters had way too many SNL cast members. It was distracting.

IMHO Battleship was great. It had funny moments and serious moments. The aliens were a pleasant change from the plain old grey.

TOP 10 Ugliest Robots

Irony alert: At the 11:30 mark with "Avatar: The Last Airbender," the comment, "Condensing a season's worth of episodes into a 100 minutes did not sound like a very good idea" is made. Considering the show was deeply influenced by manga and anime, anime fans know that the entire industry thrives on doing just that. Whole seasons of anime TV programs will routinely be edited or reworked into feature-length films (not to mention the tradition of taking weeks and months of manga stories and creating an anime film or TV episode is commonplace in Japan).

I feel like I'm the _only_ one who _seriously_ *didn't* find the CATS in "Cats 2019" to be _"CGI abominations."_ If anyone else out there happens to feel the same way, please speak now, or forever hold your peace.

Too this day, I refuse to watch said "Ghost in the Shell" live action movie. I've seen enough bits and pieces of it, to realize the "Movie" tried to tell way to much of the story, again.

Cats's messy plot? In reality, it entirely lacks a plot, being based on a poetry anthology. I recommend the book over the musical.

The thing that I always get really annoyed by is when people look at the ghost in the shell movie and call it whitewashing. Despite the fact that chances are 99% of the people that claim that it is whitewashing literally have no idea what it is they are even talking about. Well, let’s face it nowadays even as Japanese animation has become much more “mainstream“ there are still a lot of people that don’t know a lot about many many projects. For instance, people don’t seem to realize that in the world of ghost in the shell and individual can have their brain implanted into a completely synthetic body about as easily as changing the battery of a car. In fact this is even brought up in one of the shows where it is pointed out that the main characters body isn’t even a representation of her actual physical body that she had when she was born. But actually a mass produced model that has been heavily modified for police and special operations stuff. meaning that basically saying that the film is whitewashing is pretty stupid. Similar to how doing the white washing thing with the avatar film is quite stupid Yes, avatar the last Airbender was deeply influenced by Asian and Benny Eastern cultures. After all the various bending forms are all derived from various forms of martial arts. Water bending is based around tai chi, earth bending is based around kung fu. I believe fire bending is based around taekwondo or maybe it’s judo. And I don’t quite remember what air bending is , regardless it seems kind of dumb to claim it for whitewashing when literally one of the primary characters in the animated series was for all intensive purposes, a white person.

I didn't know Gerard Butler was in Gods of Egypt. Gonna have to watch it now. Look it up. Japan said they were okay with Johansson playing the character because they said that if Hollywood had chosen an Asian actress, it would have been an insult if the actress wasn't Japanese.

All of these just prove a point us film buffs learned a long time ago. If you don't start with a good script, I don't care who you have starring in the film or how much money you throw at the special effects, your movie is going to stink. Period.

Disney's live actions are a mess, between messing with the original characters, their race, looks or things just being forgettable,

Wow, what a c*ntish way to dismiss people that didn't like Twilight. It sucked. It was written by a religious fanatic that had no idea what vampires really were, and the main character was intentionally left as a blank slate so desperate women could imagine themselves as her - which lead to a lot of older ladies acting in a way that would get men arrested if they acted that way towards young girls.

CATS is fun onstage but really the only possibility for making a movie of it successfully would probably be animation. Instead we got this disaster and the additional humiliation of throwing in the marginally talented Swift in the hope that she would fill seats. Nothing could save this disaster.

Cats… ugh!

Sony’s Spider-Man Universe, THE MUMMY (2017), THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN, GHOST IN THE SHELL (2017), and THE EMOJI MOVIE don’t deserve the hate. Plus, having Spider-Man in the MCU messed me up and NO WAY HOME ruined my childhood.

The Ghostbusters remake was absolutely guaranteed to be number 1 on the list. That movie was hot garbage and should NEVER have been released. The true fans of the series will never accept that one as cannon. Twighlight I thought got more hate than it deserved though. Ghost in a shell I think people didn't understand the whole inspiration of Major and that movie was actually pretty good too.

You forgot Megamind VS The Syndicate

I'm pretty sure the flash movie was a box office dud because it was just a terrible movie. It had so much potential and so many amazing elements but they managed to fumble every step of the way. And don't get me started on the terrible VFX. Cough cough microwave baby

At least Death Note gave us the "manga, anime, netflix adaption" meme

No Dark Tower? A story of massive scope and covering multiple worlds and timelines just being turned into a parade of Stephen King Easter eggs. Pisses me off to this day.

Don't forget Teen Titans Go to the Movies

WB might have had better financial success if they had released the Batgirl movie rather than the Flash.

The Emoji movie being pick by the studio and canceling a Popeye animated was such a dumb movie

I am one in a few who loves the Silent Hill movie. The second one was " okay " . They turned it into a typical horror movie and rushed it due to the 3D fad .

2016 Ghostbusters was great. It was funny lighthearted summer movie, exactly what it was meant to be. The cast and crew got so much hate online over a movie. Nothing deserves that. Its not that serious people, your childhood was not ruined.

No. 20, After these types of Sony licensed by Marvel films, Sony definitely does not deserve those Spider-Man film rights which need to revert back to Marvel like the rights to the X-Men and Fantastic Four did when Disney acquired 20th Century Fox in 2019 🕷️🕸️

Sometimes you just wonder how this idea got to an executive's desk, let alone greenlit??!!? And for some WHO ASKED FOR IT? Making it an obvious cash grab all the way to just baffling.

if you were alive in 2008- thanks for making me feel old Watch Mojo

"Ghost in the Shell" wasn't a bad movie. Oh, not Oscar material - but a reasonably fun run.

Where's the little mermaid 2023 and snow white 2024

I'm kinda shocked Star Wars Episode 9 wasn't mentioned at all (Not that I hated it before or after the release)

Peter Pan & Wendy’s trailers suffered getting so much dislikes before it came out.

No. 17, Well, at least it wasn't completely awful it had an okay response and even became the highest grossing R-Rated film upon it's release came around 🃏

Amazing video Rebecca from watch mojo of movies hated before they were released in cinema,fantastic job. I really enjoyed like ghost in the shell movie and what about Alita battle angel. Do a top 10 or 20 hated tv show hated before there release or after too.

Should've added some of the live action Disney remake movies to this list. Not to mention, the horror version of Winnie the Pooh.

Dead Trigger (2022) If You're a Film Based On a Mobile game starring Dolph Lundgren and Lil' Romeo you're a bigger bomb than Heavenly Sword (2016) tragic man just sad

I actually liked the move "The Flash," thought it was a rather good movie. I do agree on "The Emoji Movie," though. When I heard that the filmmakers were originally going to be making an animated Popeye movie, but cancelled it and made "The Emoji Movie" instead, I refused to see it. I love Popeye the Sailor, been a fan of him since I was a kid, and I'm still angry that they cancelled that Popeye movie, and what's worse, they didn't go back to finish making it, making it seem unlikely that movie will see the light of day. I sure hope I'm wrong about it never seeing the light of day. I did not like the movie "Joker" either, though I actually hated it after I saw it. I was expecting to see "Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey" on this list.

I see no problem having scarlett johansson playing in ghost in the shell. First she's a robot, second her race doesn't matter to the story, third it is set in a futuristic cyberpunk world
