As did I my friend
I was very cruel to mine.
I melted holes into it so it looked like it flew through an asteroid field. A lot of holes.

This is a good sci fi action flick despite all the haters.
The director apologized for this film and said it wasn't very good.
I enjoyed it but it was a hot mess.

It still generally well received. Even the original Blade Runner was not thought that highly of when first came out but has become a cult classic.
I always hated that Apollo had to sacrifice it
In February 2015, while promoting his newest film, Chappie, director Neill Blomkamp expressed some regrets regarding Elysium, commenting: "I feel like I fucked it up, I feel like ultimately the story is not the right story.. I still think the satirical idea of a ring, filled with rich people, hovering above the impoverished Earth, is an awesome idea. I love it so much, I almost want to go back and do it correctly. But I just think the script wasn’t... I just didn’t make a good enough film is ultimately what it is. I feel like I executed all of the stuff that could be executed, like costume and set design and special effects very well. But, ultimately, it was all resting on a somewhat not totally formed skeletal system, so the script just wasn’t there; the story wasn’t fully there."
Everyone is always their own harshest critic. So what?
OK then.
Can you think of any other movies that weren't bad where the director publicly apologized?

Some of those movies I enjoyed inspite of what their makers think
Those were some pretty bad movies.
I'm not saying that is, but those look like 2001 toys. From the ship to the suits. Well the ship head isn't as round, but it reminds me of the one they took to the moon. But it's not.When I was a kid I had this, one of the greatest science fiction toys ever.

No worries. I imagine 2001 is still used as inspiration today for these things, so I could always find something that reminds me of it.I couldn't find an image of the one I used to have.
