Dan in Real Life. It is such a paint by numbers bullshit that anyone who has seen 10 movies in their life could have made it themselves. Its like if you made a computer program to spit out a script you would gets this tripe. Also its like why have Steve Carell if its this bad.
f***ing pisses me off.

I actually like that movie.
The one that comes to mind is Harry Potter 4. It was like they read the book, took a dump on it, then threw it against the wall and used what stuck and just filled the blanks in with completely made up scenes. The book is sooooooooooooo good, but the movie barely holds a candle to it.

The 1990 version of Lord of the Flies. It was one of the first film adaptations I had seen based on a book I liked, and man the changes they made pissed me off royally.
I can't even watch it without getting a little annoyed.

Farenheit 9/11: For reasons I can't get into.
Dogma: For reasons I can't get into.
Da Vinci Code: For reasons I can't get into.
An Inconvenient Truth: For reasons I can't get into.
All of these movies enrage me deeply, but out of respect for the board rules I won't say why as to avoid politics and religeon. ;D
Edit: Fixed for self stupidity.

I liked it as well.
It is paint-by-numbers, but I thought it was made well. I thought Steve Carell did a great job in the flick. Not great, but good and heartwarming at times.

Any movie with the words "National Lampoon" in the title made after 1983.

Shutter. When it got to the big "scary" revelation at the end I laughed til my eyes watered. Then I remembered I just spent money expecting to be scared. Pisses me off everytime I remember I sunk cash into that.

The Phantom Menace. I loathed that film; I liked Attack of the Clones, so it made up for it, but just, the first one, man I hated it.

If I've said it once, I'll say it a million times.
"Crash"
Yes, I get it. Racism is bad. Do I really need to be beaten over the head with that message for over two hours? I hate the movie because of how pompous and arrogant it is, like it's the most important movie ever made.
I'm pretty sure the DVD commentary is just the director saying, "...And I shot this scene because it's important! Look at how important this is! Feel guilty for being racist, you racists! Feel shame! This movie means something!"

American Wedding. Not only was it awful and not live up to American Pie 1 and 2 AND start the total bastardization of the entire franchise, isn't it a sign when you can't manage to entice Chris Kline to return that maybe it shouldn't be done?

Any WWE Films theatrical release. They're a total waste of multiplex screens and hardly ever last more than 2 weeks.

The Good Shepard. Why? Because it tricked me. It looked like a good spy drama, but in reality it was the most boring movie I have ever seen.

Erin Brockovich, A Civil Action, and Libby, Montana were all based on real civil cases in which people got sick or died due to illegal disposal of harmful chemicals. The real thing that pisses me off is that one of the companies that was a defendant in A Civil Action (W. R. Grace and Company) was also behind the asbestos contamination in Libby, Montana, as well as being a defendant in two other major cases.

Cube: This made my brain hurt in it's stupidity. The acting sucked, the dialogue sucked and the end was god awful. Damn Canadian cinema.
Funny Games(American version) One of the stupidest damn movies i've ever seen. Nothing about it was good.
Invasion: I get it, it's a parody movie but I thought they were supposed to be funny. This crap wasn't.
and Finally for reasons I can't get into here: Jesus camp.

Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within because it wasn't Final Fantasy, dammit! I might like it if I watched it again since I know what to expect now.
