10 Film Sequels And Spin-Offs That Should Never Have Happened
1. Catwoman
A movie without a single good idea in its 104 minutes, Catwomangets off to a bad start by reimagining the lead character as Patience Phillips (Halle Berry), a clumsy graphic designer who makes ads for Beau-Line, a beauty cream that (in theory) reverses the aging process.
In practice, it causes headaches, nausea and disfigurement, and when Halle discovers this, shes left for dead by Sharon Stone, who practically has Evil Villain written on her forehead. Weve barely reached the 20 minute mark and the films biggest problem is already apparent: a heroine nothing like her comic book counterpart will spend the rest of the movie trying to save America from a skin care product.
You see, Stone knows all about the creams side effects and, having presumably paid off the Food and Drug Administration, plans to launch it anyway, which will.give a lot of people headaches. And a bit of a rash. In order to stop this, Berry gets a superhero costume that covers her face but leaves her midriff exposed, which is enough to shield her identity from everyone, including Stone.
To think Roger Ebert hated this movie.
