Not that I haven't seen far worse movies, but in each of these cases I was

Of course other people may have different lists.  And I did like Dune
somewhat more the second time I saw it.

I agree with Dune. LOTR (b) I saw when I was 12, haven't seen it since, so
cannot say. I like 1. On my list are all the new star wars movies.
Absolutely horrible! They should have let the original 3 stand, and not
produce prequels that dishonored the memory of hte original. =(

Rogue One is pretty good.

I actually quite enjoyed TFA, but then I didn't believe Han was
actually dead (I was pretty sure that with the big build-up on Maz,
her connection with the Force and having gotten a light saber
possibly through teleportational menas that she was going to pull
some mojo that would be revealed later.  TMF me.)
