    That was the start of his decline.

    "High Anxiety" was in 1977. It's terrific.

    He followed it with "History of the World," which wasn't nearly as good, and then "Spaceballs," "Life Stinks," "Robin Hood: Men in Tights," and "Dracula: Dead and Loving It." Just an unprecedented run of complete garbage.

    "Neighbors" -- the one with Belushi and Aykroyd.

    Though he has not made the worst or best movies I’ve ever seen, Clooney has made more really good...and more really bad...movies than most.

    But in case you’ve forgotten how bad Batman & Robin is...pop it in sometime.

    Agreed. I’ve watched just about everything of his and I didn’t even bother with Robin Hood. I don’t even want to know.

    The most memorably bad, to me, was one that actually was critically acclaimed: Manchester by the Sea. Casey Affleck won an Oscar as the Best Actor of 2017, and the movie won that year's Academy Award for Best Screenplay. But I didn't like it at all, thought it was boring, dozed off through part of it, and I thought the ending was dumb. I can clearly remember wondering what in the world all the buzz was about.

    I think OscarMadison referred to that one, too.

    Saw it while I was living in the U.P., in a small town with a movie theater that never got new movies until they were at least a month old.

    "Batman and Robin" was the exception. Got that one opening weekend. Should have known it was a clunker.

    No, that one had to be on this thread, as did your hatred for it.

    Independence Day.
    Pee-wee's Big Adventure.
    Forrest Gump.

    YMMV.
