The movie of "Dune" (not to be confused with the mini-series which I rather liked).
I hate it when they take a gigantic sweeping story and try to pare it down to 2 or 3 hours. Tons of exposition or having the characters' thoughts in voice over to explain things for the viewer.
The Golden Compass had the same problem ... too many characters yaking about the history of things in a manner that is so unnatural.
The second one character in a movie starts explaining the entire history of whatever universe they are living in ... I know I'm in trouble.
