Worst Movie of 2016

It goes without question that 2016 hasn't been a rather solid year as far as movies go. Some movies have been ok, others have had a hidden gem, then there are those that flat out suck.

Normally I'd do a top 5 list but my movie going experience this year was rather limited so I'm just going to narrow it down to one movie this year. So my worst movie of 2016 has got to be....

It has to take a special kind of superhero movie to be considered worse than Dawn of Justice. And those two movies, for me, was in a very close race but in the end The Killing Joke edges it out.

With Dawn of Justice I at least expected it to be a disappointment and the worst thing the movie had to offer was Eisenberg's Lex Luthor. But there were a few positives that kept it from being No.1.

With The Killing Joke...The fact that DC had to adapt a comic book that even Alan Moore wasn't too thrilled on should have been a sign right there. And that the movie was nothing more than some hack wanting to produce animated fan fiction involving his favorite ship that nobody wanted. And the tragedy of that whole mess was that it had the talent involved that could make The Killing Joke surprisingly enjoyable but instead it was a movie that took a colossal shit on both Batman and Batgirl. Its no wonder that WB had to bring Adam West out of retirement and do that 60's Batman homage to save face. And I consider that an improvement over The Killing Joke, regardless what the cynical fanbase may say. Because it was Adam West and Bert Ward reuniting as Batman & Robin.

The Killing Joke was bad business all around. And the tragedy of this is that this abomination makes me look forward to Season 3 of Young Justice. Because no matter how ridiculous YJ would get I can say that, at least it isn't as bad as The Killing Joke.
