Poll: ‘Titanic’ worst film ever
“Titanic,” the 1997 romantic epic that rang up $2.4 billion at global box offices and won 11 Oscars including Best Picture, has been voted the worst film ever by viewers of BBC One’s Film 2003, the BBC reports.
The blockbuster beat out “AI: Artificial Intelligence” and “Pearl Harbor” to win the unfavourable distinction.
Film 2003 conducted the survey to coincide with the British release of the Jennifer Lopez-Ben Affleck bomb “Gigli,” considered by many critics to be one of the worst films of the year. Surprisingly, it didn’t even make the show’s list.
Other top 10 offenders were Tom Cruise starrers “Vanilla Sky” and “Eyes Wide Shut,” John Travolta’s personal project “Battlefield Earth,” 1999 indie hit “The Blair Witch Project” and superhero flops “Batman and Robin” and “The Avengers.”
Ironically, just last month “Titanic” topped a different poll of the greatest film endings.
Here’s the full Film 2003 list:
1. Titanic
2. AI: Artificial Intelligence
3. Pearl Harbor
4. Vanilla Sky
5. The Blair Witch Project
6. Batman and Robin
7. The Avengers
8. Battlefield Earth
9. Eyes Wide Shut
10. Highlander 2: The Quickening.
