10 Most Boring Blockbusters Of All Time

10. The Last Airbender

There was a huge audience waiting to see a big screen adaptation of the Nickelodeon animated series, but unfortunately Paramount gave the movie to M Night Shyamalan, whose previous anti-masterpieces included The Village, The Happening and Lady In The Water.

Adopting Ed Wood’s storytelling style, Shyamalan keeps things unpredictable by giving you no idea as to what’s supposed to be happening before providing an explanation that turns out to be gibberish. After being informed that the Spirit World keeps balance in this universe, a character asks what the Spirit World actually is and is told, “It’s not a place made up of things you can touch. But it exists, nonetheless.”

There’s a protagonist with magical powers, some characters you know are pure evil just by looking at them and lots of special effects, but it’s never even remotely engaging. If it wasn’t for some hilariously awful dialogue (“I offer my condolences on your nephew burning to death in that terrible accident”), the movie would be used by vets to put animals to sleep.
