Blog:My Top Seven Ocean Liner Fims Far Worse Than Poseidon (2006)



Poseidon is a 2006 movie remake of 1972 that is pretty much an inferior to the [[mh:greatestmovies:The Poseidon Adventure|1972 film of the same name}}, but thankfully, it's not too bad, and don't give me wrong, Poseidon 2006 remake does exactly, however, has memorable moments that nearly make the remake look like a decent film or a remake to 1972. Not to mention, the remake of Poseidon does try to do something really different, and trying to be a good remake to 1972 one. No people I seriously don't think it's one of the bad remakes to the original one.

Here are the top seven Ocean Liner films that are far worse than the 2006 remake.

Number #7
The Legend of the Titanic



This is one of the most abysmal Titanic films of all time, it is one of the huge insults to the tragic 1912 disaster event of the same name. The mvoie adds cartoon rip off Disney-Waner Bros. animals that does have nothing to do with the Titanic. What makes it worse that the octopus came out from nowhere and grabs the Titanic, and nobody was killed during the sinking of the Titanic. Why, just why?!

Number #6
Titanic: The Legend Goes On



While not as bad as the The Legend of the Titanic, but it's still worse, because it contains an infamous Rapping Dog song that became a meme. It has way too much comedy for a film based on the Titanic disaster. And it also has numerous editing and animation errors in the movie. (e.g. when the two robbers set off to attack the old woman, the movie goes pitch-black for a few seconds and the scene just ends without explanation.)

Number #5
Titanic II



Behold! It's another Asylum's worse film. Titanic II is another horrible Titanic film that the Titanic II was made in 2012 in this film. First off, doing Titanic II is a horrible and lazy concept. A group of Asylums had probably seen the movie Titanic (1997), and they were like, "Hey Aslyms, let's make Titanic II, and other Asylums replies, "Yeah, that's a great idea! Let's make one!" And then... The did it, also the movie itself is downright insulting to the victims who died in the Titanic disaster, and it has even tries to mix Titanic and The Poseidon Adventure, but fails miserably. The back of the DVD case even states "In the tradition of Titanic and Poseidon". Ugly special effects for the tsunami, and as well as the breaking icebergs and even and floating iceberg that was heading straight to the ship. Even if ice were to cause a tsunami, the ship would not have been impacted at all, due to being in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean!

Number #4
Beyond the Poseidon Adventure



A horrible way to end the two-part chapter of the Poseidon sinking series. It barely improves anything from The Swarm, instead, it fails to improve anything from Allen's previous disaster film. Not only that, Irwin Allen still sucks at being a director like he did with the previous film and this film made it worse. It tries very hard to conclude this chapter of the Poseidon stories, but it fails to do so leaving the film into an unsatisfying conclusion of the two-part Poseidon series.

Number #3
The Poseidon Adventure (2005 film)



This is a terrible remake to the 1972 one, unlike the 2006 one, it has an unnecessary terrorist plot that was never even mentioned in the original novel, and they said terrorist plot is even the cause of the ship capsizing. This is due to the fact that the producers doubt that a tidal wave would be big enough to capsize a ship. They obviously haven't researched about rogue waves. On the topic of the ship capsizing, a hole in the hull would actually cause the ship to sink by the stern, not capsize. The acting is terrible, which shows that the actors had no care of being in this movie. What's worse is that it wastes the talent of actors like Adam Baldwin and Peter Weller.

Number #2
Ghost Ship



Ghost Ship isn't scary, it has a boring premise and the poster is a blatant rip-off of the one used for the 1980 film Death Ship with George Kennedy (shown on the right). And it's also a plot is a rip-off of Event Horizon.

Number #1
Speed 2: Cruise Control



Speed 2: Cruise Control isn't faster and thriller movie, it's so slow, and it doesn't need a sequel! It's very slow-paced and has little-to-no suspense for a movie with the word Speed in the title. Also, the title is wildly inaccurate, as the cruise ship barely even goes that fast. In addition, the idea of having the Speed movie take place on a slow-moving cruise ship is much less thrilling than the first movie's setting on a fast-moving bus. Although Willem Dafoe's over-the-top performance can be entertaining at times.
