This is a thread for all the things over the years that have have let you down or not lived up to your expectations... The disappointments.

It can be anything... It's wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide open,folks.
Movies, Music, comic books, work or even Life in general...

1. Art college.

Yeah, art college wasn't good for me. There was nothing they could give me, y'know?
I was there two years before i dropped out and, i can honestly say, it's one of the very few decisions i've made in my life that i've never thought twice about.
Two years of art school and i only learnt ONE thing... I hate art students.

2. Spider-Man 3

I've had break-ups that hurt less than the feeling i had coming out of the theatre on opening night...

3. The Kings Of Leon.

It was the start of the new century, and i'd just fallen in love with a band. Their name was the kings of Leon. They made this loud, gin-sodden hillbilly rock and roll sound that was so... Fresh! And they were the real deal too.
Over the years, with every subsequent album, i've watched this band mutate into basically what amounts to one of those boy bands with that 'sanitised stadium rock' sound... Just compare a picture of them from 2001 to a picture of them now.
I hate this expession but it's the only one that fits... The people are sell-outs. Only suitable for the kind of teenage girls you cross the street to avoid and people who buy their albums in supermarkets.

You go.
Let's have fun with this.

the Ultimate Spider-Man game. I remember counting down the days months before it was released...:csad:
 
Pretty much every major motion picture this year with the small but notable exception of Star Trek.
 
2. Spider-Man 3

Oh my god, ain't it the truth? :wow:

I felt like my childhood was being beaten with a stick for 2 and half straight hours.
 
I'm Disappointed that I'm not the first one to say Spider man 3, I'm disappointed in the OP for not saying XMen 3
 
I'm disappointed that we all can't just get along
 
DING! DING! DING!
And the winner of 'The most obvious post' is... Drakon!

Congratulations! You've won a lifetimes supply of Fail!

People that dont appreciate LOST.
 
I get disappointed when the Maury show airs an episode that's not a paternity episode, I get disappointed when he does run a paternity episode and the guy ends up being the father.
 
I disappoint myself due to repeatedly making bad decisions.:hehe:

I agree to an extent, i went to art college and did hate most of it but i found that it depended on the type of student, i mean i got on well with anyone who was studying graphic design style art, but anyone who studied fine/modern art was so far up they're own arse the could vanish
 
BATMAN: THE MUSICAL. My composer had a mental breakdown and abandoned the project, and I then had it professionally budgeted at $300,000. For a weekend's worth of shows. $295,000 without the car. So that's in development hell.

I know you probably work for a bigger company but... How did you get professional budgeting? My friends and I are making an indie film, and we're trying to get help with our budget... It'd be cool if you could just point me in the right direction.
