15 Upcoming Films That Could Score 0% On RottenTomatoes

Nicolas Cage strikes again, Angry Birds take flight, and yet another Paranormal Activity sequel...

Filmmaking is hard, so much so that even some of the worst movies you've ever seen have had a ton of effort poured into them, meaning that to score 0% critical approval on Rotten Tomatoes is almost as difficult as nailing 100%. If you wanted to make a bad film on purpose, it'd be almost impossible to hit 0%, because some measure of self-awareness would probably show through and cause someone, somewhere, to give it even mild approval. Making a film that not a single critic likes requires a special kind of contempt for your audience, to abandon the most basic rules of movie-making and to continue in spite of audience pleas to just stop and give it up. These 15 movies, for a variety of reasons, are setting off the 0% radar already. Even though some of them are far off, it'd be a shock if any of them even scored above 20%, while getting to Fresh status (60% or more) already seems virtually impossible. Movies can surprise us (last year, we theorised John Wick would get 0%, but it went on to score 85%), but at the same time, the vast majority of these movies are going to end up in the exact same box you expect: critically loathed, regardless of how much money they make (or hopefully, don't).
