Games:
Burnout Revenge (loved Burnout 3: Takedown, but thought this one sucked)
Super Mario Sunshine (not as good as Super Mario 64, haven't tried Super Mario Galaxy yet)
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (it was good, just not as awesome as Super Smash Bros. Melee)
Final Fantasy VII (bleh)
Sonic Heroes (the game that soured me against Sonic Team for years to come)

Movies:
Signs (I don't care what Roger Ebert thinks, the ending ruined it for me)
Die Another Day (James Bond is not MacGyver! Casino Royale made up for it though)
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (enjoyed it, but didn't even come close to living up to the previous three films)

I can't think of a long list right now, but one big one is Yoshi's Story...it wasn't terrible, but it was NOTHING compared to Yoshi's Island.

Oh, yeah, Signs is the most disappointment I've had in a movie.

The first two Star Wars prequels were really disappointing to me, even considering that I was expecting disappointment. In video games, I think Zelda 2: Adventures of Link was one of the biggest letdowns I've experienced, especially considering how excited I was to get it when I was a kid. Oh well, they made up for it with later games.

I'll probably pick it up in the January sales, along with Mario Kart Wii and at least one other Wii game. Maybe The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. I don't want to die without having completed at least one Legend of Zelda game.

Games: Final Fantasy VII

Movies: The first Incredible Hulk movie. After watching it, I wished I'd taken a red hot soldering iron to my eyes so I wouldn't have seen it. Thank god Edward Norton saved the Hulk.

I agree with Yoshi's Story. Yoshi's Island was way better. I also didn't like the GBA Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories.

Also as mentioned before Link 2... what were they thinking? I mean really?

This list could get really long.
