The Biggest Waste of Talent ever in a Movie ?
Movies which had a great cast but stunk to high heaven
I'm in the middle of watching one right now
The Ten
Has Winona Ryder, Jessica Alba, Adam Brody, Famke Janssen
Ok not a super star cast but not this movie stinks worse than a C grade telemovie with NO star actors

And then there are the "classics". For openers, Academy Award-winner Ray Milland whose head is grafted onto a black man in The Thing With Two Heads, and who can forget another Oscar-winner, Louise Fletcher, gulping down a live frog in the Invaders From Mars remake.

Peter Fonda and Alec Baldwin in Thomas & the Magic Railroad. They may not be the two greatest actors in the world or anything, but they were definitely slumming when they signed up for that one.

This could really have been a big, important, controversial movie...instead of the low-level sitcom it was.

When Time Ran Out - Could be the worst of the big budget disaster flicks. Terrific cast though. Paul Newman & William Holden trying to recapture the success of The Towering Inferno, but failing. Remember playing Hot Lava as a kid, jumping from rock to rock to whatever, pretending the ground was molten lava? That's the movie. Burgess Meredith walked a tightrope over a pit of lava. Pat Morita wasn't so lucky.
