15 Of The Most Ridiculous Films That Actors Should Be Ashamed Of

6. Waterworld

If you look up information about some of the most troubled film shoots in the history of Hollywood, “Waterworld” will always get a mention in anything that you find.

Entire books have been written about how laughably bad all aspects of “Waterworld” are. “Waterworld” was a film that started out expensive and got more and more costly as time went on.

The film’s director and Kevin Costner, the film’s star, reportedly hated each other so much that they stopped speaking at one point. It’s hard to make a movie when the director and the lead actor won’t even look at each other, let alone talk to one another.

Joss Whedon, writer and director of hit films like “The Avengers,” reportedly spent two weeks on set rewriting the script and trying to get it into shape. He still describes it as one of the most depressing times in his life to this day.

Even though “Waterworld” didn’t necessarily lose any money, it still didn’t make any money, either. It goes down as one of the most costly movies that resulted in a disaster to this day. Kevin Costner didn’t return to the science fiction genre until 2013’s “Man of Steel,” a film which he (thankfully) didn’t star in.
