Movies That Should Have Been Better

Let me first say that I still think A Beautiful Mind is good drama. However, I think it is a failure in regards to two things:
1) the movie fails to properly examine John Nash's theories, which were incredibly fascinating. A better screenwriter would have better integrated the man's work into a biopic.
2) the dramatic licensing is way too excessive. The movie is practically fiction. I just don't understand why they had to change so many details about his life.

I'm gonna get slammed for this but...
"Lone Survivor"
To me, it was just a movie with a 45 min fire fight in it.
They should have done back stories on the guys.

Almost every movie ever made.

John Nash was/is a schizophrenic and a profound a-hole, so I'm not sure an accurate portrayal of his life would have made a good movie.

Quantum of Solace. If not for the writers strike, it would have been much better, IMO. There's a skeleton of a movie there, but nothing was fleshed out in a satisfying way. Could've done with a more competent editor as well.
It's a shame how that movie turned out considering what Daniel Craig did with Skyfall and Casino Royale.

Alien: Resurrection
I don't find it that bad, but you have an awesome director, a classic series, and a not so bad story.
In the end it just didn't come together.
And it's still better than Prometheus.

Godfather 3 (probably would have been better had it not been made)
Dark Night Rises (it was good, but just missed the mark)
The Matrix sequels (killed the franchise for me)
Terminator Salvation (finally we get to see the future and you give us this shite?)
X-men ( We as kids grew up with the Cyclops beef with Wolverine over Jean Grey, we expect it. We don't expect the X-men team leader to be a cold emo pussy)

Didn't read the book, but it had to be better.
