Line 55:
** Stallone has also expressed distaste towards ''[[Rocky IV]]'' and ''V'', and to a lesser extent ''Rocky III''. He said that if he could make ''Rocky IV'' again he would have hired Bill Conti to score it (this is the only film of the series to have been scored by someone else - [[Transformers: The Movie|Vince DiCola]], if you're wondering) and would have punched Brigitte Nielsen in the face.
** He also deeply regretted ''Rhinestone'' but did enjoy working with Dolly Parton nevertheless.
* Many of [[Peter Sellers]]' early 1970s efforts, when his star had fallen far enough he was willing to do just about anything, qualify as this in one way or another. He tried to prevent the release of 1970's ''Hoffman'' and badmouthed 1972's ''Alice's Adventures in Wonderland'' before it opened. In fact, he called his 1965 through mid-1970s output a "bad patch" to [[Time (magazine)|''Time'' magazine]] not long before his death. Sellers was infamous for being overly self-critical of his work, though - the truly shameful work didn't kick in until the '70s. (And ''Hoffman'' is surprisingly popular with the more devoted fans.)
* [[John Wayne]] aggressively campaigned to be cast as [[What the Hell, Casting Agency?|Genghis Khan]] in ''The Conqueror''. He would later shudder at the mention of the movie and claimed the moral of the story was "not to make an ass of yourself trying to play parts you're not suited for."
** This movie did have a very good, and tragic, reason to be regretted; it was shot in Nevada near an atomic test site, and many of the cast and crew (including director Dick Powell, co-star Susan Hayward, and Wayne himself) were later stricken with cancer - studio owner Howard Hughes was so devastated he took the film out of circulation.
