editI believe this wiki page has nothing useful to give to humanity. I request this to be deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:A601:A7D5:5900:8814:773B:2268:F0D (talk) 06:06, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

- This would apply to a good majority of the articles here. Explain to me how pages for Fanta cake or Fanum tax benefit humanity. Edelgardvonhresvelg (talk) 19:59, 11 September 2024 (UTC)
- Those articles are at least a description of something, this is just a curated list of opinions. HootyTheOwlTube (talk) 07:03, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- Cited opinions, from official sources, backed up with facts. This is the essence of Wikipedia doktorb wordsdeeds 11:11, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- Yes I’m not arguing that these aren’t citing publish opinions but there isn’t an objective metric or list of them that qualifies a film for being included anywhere. HootyTheOwlTube (talk) 08:31, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
- As you can see from the top of this page, there have been 11 deletion discussions dating back to 2003. All of them ended with strong votes for this to be kept. The study of "worst" films is objectively a notable topic.LM2000 (talk) 10:26, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

Joker 2?
editShould we include Joker 2? HiGuys69420 (talk) 23:26, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- Can you find any sources calling it the "worst" movie? It has bad reviews but I don't think anyone considers it to be one of the worst movies ever, or even the worst superhero movie. To be honest it's not even the worst movie with the Joker in it. Di (they-them) (talk) 23:40, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- This is too recent of a film to be considered one of the worst. It simply appears to be just bad or mediocre similar to the new Jurassic Park and Ghostbusters films, but nowhere near films on this list such as The Last Airbender and The Room or some of the 2024 contenders like The Crow, Borderlands, or Madame Webb. Edelgardvonhresvelg (talk) 01:02, 13 October 2024 (UTC)
- I presume you mean Joker: Folie à Deux. I can't find any reviews calling it the worst of all time. The title of this Wired article posits that it may be "the worst comic book movie adaptation of all time", but what follows is not actually a review at all; it's a commentary on the film's box office returns and cultural impact. In other words, the title is misleading clickbait. I will also point out that the Tomatometer for Joker sits at 33% while the Tomatometer for Madame Web sits at 11% and The Crow at 24%. Have I mentioned how interesting this year has been in terms of bad movies? Carguychris (talk) 23:00, 12 October 2024 (UTC)
- The 2020s have been an interesting decade for bad and mediocre movies in general. We have forgettable and soulless cash grabs made from franchises begging to die, novelty films, sequels and remakes that nobody asked for, superhero slop, adaptations that are disrespectful to the source material, etc. Edelgardvonhresvelg (talk) 01:24, 13 October 2024 (UTC)
- Don't forget about the TV show that broke Star Wars canon and is only praised for its fight scenes and Manny Jacinto's performance. HiGuys69420 (talk) 04:17, 13 October 2024 (UTC)
