BAD FILMS BASED ON GOOD CARTOONS
Films that ruin my childhood favorites with their cheesy scripts, bad casting, bad cgi, abuse of creative license, dismissal of source material. Many movies based on anything have committed these sins but this list is about the ones based on cartoons.

- DirectorMichael BayStarsShia LaBeoufMegan FoxJosh DuhamelSam Witwicky leaves the Autobots behind for a normal life. But when his mind is filled with cryptic symbols, the Decepticons target him and he is dragged back into the Transformers' war.robot balls? Bad jokes, inappropriate and rude, not funny at all. Robots disguised as humans?? No. Stupid goof ball characters and of course the *beep* trademark CGI from the first movie that makes all transformers look like pile of garbage that came to life in a junkyard with no actual personality or symmetry to their style. This was the movie that made me stop watching the Transformers movies. They don't get any better from here. And although the robots looked like piles of *beep* in the first film at leas it was enjoyable.
- DirectorStephen SommersStarsDennis QuaidChanning TatumMarlon WayansAn elite military unit comprised of special operatives known as G.I.

- DirectorRaja GosnellStarsHank AzariaKaty PerryJonathan WintersWhen the evil wizard Gargamel chases the tiny blue Smurfs out of their village, they tumble from their magical world into New York City.One day someone will save us from cgi and introduce realistic special effects that will end the simulation take over.

- DirectorRaja GosnellStarsNeil Patrick HarrisJayma MaysKaty PerryThe Smurfs team up with their human friends to rescue Smurfette, who has been abducted by Gargamel, since she knows a secret spell that can turn the evil sorcerer's newest creation, creatures called "The Naughties", into real Smurfs.Please stop taking your kids to see these movies MAKE THEM STOP MAKING THESE with CGI

With Zordon dying and their powers lost, the Rangers head to a distant planet to find the mystic warrior Dulcea.Sorry this is not a cartoon but might as well be. The original show looks better because it's actually more appealing to watch sfx with miniatures than it is to watch them with *beep* CGI

- DirectorJonathan LiebesmanStarsMegan FoxWill ArnettWilliam FichtnerWhen a kingpin threatens New York City, a group of mutated turtle warriors must emerge from the shadows to protect their home.After Transformers Mike Bay should just be black balled and fired from touching anything to do with any cartoon or toy frachise. I hate him he ruins everything. This movie had a lot of stupid bs in it but was completely ruined by CGI. It could have even been adequate with this CGI if he had LEFT THEIR NOSES ON THEIR FACES. I mean look at the cartoon then look at these flat faces nostril having monsters. They are gross and ugly and stupid looking. a thousand times worse than the live action movies that used Jim Henson style effects

- DirectorDavid GrossmanStarsChristopher ShowermanJulie BenzAngus T. JonesGeorge, now a father, goes to Las Vegas, where he has to help out his brother.The firs one was tolerable as much as the Flintstones live action movie was I guess. But sequels are just never a good idea
- DirectorBrian LevantStarsMark AddyStephen BaldwinKristen JohnstonIn this live-action prequel to The Flintstones (1994), the Flintstones and the Rubbles go on a trip to Rock Vegas, where Wilma Slaghoople is pursued by playboy Chip Rockefeller.They should have never made a sequel to the first one. This is pure garbage and paid for by Vegas to tempt you to go there like every other Vegas movie and show that is paid advertising to get you to go there. Just like every show that has their cast go to Disneyland like on Full House. That was also paid advertising and you loved it. YOU LOVE CRAP AMERICA!!!
- DirectorMichael BayStarsShia LaBeoufRosie Huntington-WhiteleyTyrese GibsonThe Autobots learn of a Cybertronian spacecraft hidden on the moon, and race against the Decepticons to reach it and to learn its secrets.An attempt to recover from the suck-age of part 2 yet they still couldn't do it. Nothing can save mike bays terrible "vision" of this franchise. TRANSFORMERS NEEDS A REBOOT!
- DirectorMichael BayStarsMark WahlbergNicola Peltz BeckhamJack ReynorWhen humanity allies with a bounty hunter in pursuit of Optimus Prime, the Autobots turn to a mechanic and his family for help.Probably seemed like a good idea to get Mark Walberg in on it. Definatly and improvement on the lackluster bland blah boredom of part 3 however nothing can save this franchise now. It's just all so uninteresting by this point. After suffering through part 2 and 3...there is nothing 4 could have done to make it better other than to NOT have been made and just let Marvel studios REBOOT the property with a GOOD movie. And why not? Marvel actually did the Transformers comics for awhile
