In many ways, a boring movie is often times worse than a movie that's straight up bad. So here's the movie to tell the rest of the farms about films that you finding boring as hell.
I was going to open this up with Disney's Dinosaur, but then I made the mistake of watching Looney Tunes: Back in Action today.
For those that don't know about this film, it doesn't even really focus on the Looney Tunes. Sure, Bugs and Daffy are major characters, but for the most part, their put on the sidelines in favor of two generic, dull people that I can't even be arsed to remember their names (just know that's a WB executive trying not to get fired, and Brendan Fraser playing Fraser's stunt double), and most of the movie involves these four getting chased by some looney Tunes villain; take them out of the picture and replace with generic thugs, and nothing would really change. At all.
It's attempts at humor also amounts to self-referential jokes that made me think a TV Tropes wrote this (and also an incredibly lame product placement for Walmart, but it's totally okay because they point out how much of a stupid product placement it is *sarcasm*).
Overall, the only thing I can remember fondly is hearing a remix of Powerhouse.

I was debating between Lady and the tramp or Smiley (starring famous youtuber Shane Dawson) and while I fell asleep during both of these films a third more boring film hit me, so boring I forgot I had seen it. Sin city 2.

Literally took all the things the first one did right and threw them out to make the blandest, cookie cutter sequel.

In my mind, a boring movie is something that I don't remember watching in the slightest, but The Host, the one based off of Stephenie Meyer's book, was just so bafflingly boring on top of being bad that I can still remember how excruciating it was to sit there the whole two hours. Basically, it's a movie where nothing happens, none of the characters act like characters, the sets were vapid, and the one "action" scene that happens just amounts to nothing (probably because it was never in the novel from what someone said). I only saw it because I made an agreement with my mom I'd watch one of her movies in exchange for having her watch one of my favorite anime with me. (Funny how she ended up liking Escaflowne while I despised The Host. It's like my mom has shitty taste in movies or something. :roll:)

For a more recent example, as in a boring film I saw in theaters, A Wrinkle in Time was just the same way, though I managed to entertain myself by occasionally making (hushed) comments to my brothers about the unbelievable shit that was going on, mainly with how godawful the cinematography turned out to be, and the hilarious costume design.

No Country for old Men. Dear god, I nearly fell asleep watching that in the theater.

You know what, I have to agree. Granted, I watched that around like midnight and I took a bathroom break at the halfway point, so I had to keep from falling asleep as well (that scene with the shoot-out was loud, though, successfully jolted me awake), but I just didn't really get why it is people like the film so much. It's way too damn slow for its own good if you ask me.

Descendents (yes it's spelled like this.) made in 2008 also known as Solos in Chile. It's a zombie movie, but all I remember is a littler girl walking and little to no talking for over a hour, little to no zombies, some crazy solders and I think the kid turns in to a fish person at the end, or she has gills. I can't really remember I fell a sleep. I think the director wanted it to be a message about how children are the future.

Not exactly considered a "boring" movie, but I remember taking a nap during one of the Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows movies while in the theatre. The fact I can't even remember which is a pretty good indication of the fact I just... didn't care (especially after years of being dragged to the theatres to watch movies I didn't give two shits about. And being forced to spend my 12th birthday watching Deathly Hallows Part 2 because it was opening day or something. Which I'm still a little bitter about).

Man of Steel. I liked the old Superman movies and did not enjoy how plodding and preachy this one was. It gave the impression it was up on its high horse about the IDEA of Superman without any real personality to it. By the time the stupid action rolled around, I blinked and realized that I'd missed twenty minutes from nodding off.

The first Michael Bay Transformers movie. I was into one of the Transformers shows some years back, and I've enjoyed what are considered to be movies/TV shows for boys/men since childhood so I decided to give it a chance for some stupid reason, despite finding Armageddon and Pearl Harbor terrible. I went in expecting action, explosions, and giant fighting robots. What I instead got was almost two hours of nothing happening and then the only battle in the last twenty minutes. The only thing I was glad about was that I only wasted money on a rental instead of $20+ at the theater.

I'm a little conflicted with the poll because usually I find bad movies pretty boring too if they're not "so bad it's good."

As for my choices, my top 3 would probably be Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack (had to watch 3 times because I fell asleep the first 2 times.), Blade Runner, and maybe Dune.

I'm gonna go ahead and agree with this, I find a lot of movies amusing in their incompetence but some just really grinds my gears, like Uwe Boll's Alone in the Dark, or the slasher Anthropophagus

A movie I couldn't even stand to finish was The Disaster Movie because it was so overly dull I gave up after 30 minutes
