For me the first thing that comes to mind is Tales from Earthsea. I don’t think it’s excellent or anything and has plenty of problems but people act like it killed their dog. While it has its problems that have been covered extensively, I think it has a beautiful atmosphere and art.

IMO it would have been better received if it wasn’t advertised as an Earthsea adaptation and was just its own thing.

    That’s one of those movies that’s better than it has any right to be. Remake “It’s a mad mad mad mad world”, and now we have Smashmouth? Nah.

    Same with “Hot Tub Time Machine”. Should be awful, is actually good.
