THE POP FILTER TOP TEN 

FRANCHISES THAT IGNORED THEIR SOURCE MATERIAL

BLAST FROM THE PAST

10. RESIDENT EVIL

No puzzles, no suspense, all naked-superpowered Milla Jovovich.

9. GARFIELD

None of the biting wit of the cartoon strip.

8.  CAT IN THE HAT

Dr. Seuss was never this terrifying.

7. THE LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN

Took the characters, left the detailed and interesting story lines. Added explosions.

6. GI JOE

Without the morals at the end, it’s all just flash.

5. IT

A fucking spider at the end?!

4. THE MASK

Remove violence. Add Jim Carrey. Shake until mixed. Remove Jim Carrey. Add Jamie Kennedy. Fuck.

2. BATTLESHIP

Sure, there are aliens and Rihanna. But at least there’s still a bunch of lying kids.

1. TWISTER

At least Battleship actually had ships in it.
