* You might think the words
to:
* You might think the words \"shame\" and Creator/PamelaAnderson don\'t go together. \'\'Snapdragon\'\' and \'\'Raw Justice\'\' prove you\'re wrong.
* Creator/JenniferAniston\'s turn in the low-budget horror schlockfest \'\'Film/{{Leprechaun}}\'\'.
* Antonio Banderas wasn\'t proud of \'\'Film/TheLegendOfZorro\'\'.
* Creator/JoshBrolin hated \'\'Film/JonahHex\'\'.
* Bobby Cannavale is not fond of \'\'Film/{{Annie 2014}}\'\'.
* Michael Chiklis apologized for \'\'Wired\'\'.
* Creator/ChrisColumbus is not fond of \'\'Film/ILoveYouBethCooper\'\'.
* Apparently, Creator/TomCruise doesn\'t like \'\'Film/{{Legend 1985}}\'\' much.
* Colin Farrell was disappointed that his sons only thought \'\'WesternAnimation/{{Epic}}\'\' was alright.
* Barry Gibb doesn\'t like Film/SgtPeppersLonelyHeartsClubBand.
* Producer Brian Grazer regrets making \'\'Film/CowboysAndAliens\'\'
* Barry Humphries is embarrassed by \'\'Les Patterson Saves The World.\'\'
* Creator/MarciaGayHarden doesn\'t appreciate \'\'Film/SpyHard\'\'.
* Creator/ArtieLange has distanced himself from \'\'Film/BeerLeague\'\'.
* Piece of advice: don\'t mention \'\'Film/TheWizard\'\' to [[Music/RiloKiley Jenny Lewis]].
* Richard O\'Brien disowned \'\'Film/ShockTreatment\'\'.
* Creator/ElvisPresley regrets doing the majority of films he starred in.
* If you meet [[Series/MyNameIsEarl Jaime Pressly]], don\'t bring up \'\'PiƱata: Survival Island\'\'. Just \'\'don\'t.\'\'
* Mike Reiss regrets working on \'\'Film/AirplaneIITheSequel\'\'.
* Ray Romano didn\'t care for \'\'Film/WelcomeToMooseport\'\'.
* Creator/TreyParkerAndMattStone both dislike \'\'Film/{{BASEketball}}\'\'.
* Creator/PatrickWarburton isn\'t too proud of \'\'Film/SpaceChimps\'\'.
* Nicol Williamson did not have fun making \'\'Film/{{Spawn}}\'\'.
** Creator/BobHoskins felt that being given a role in \'\'Parting Shots\'\' wasn\'t a career highlight either. Hell, \'\'\'anyone\'\'\' who was involved in \'\'Parting Shots\'\' probably considers the film an Old Shame.

The following have been moved to the Western Animation subpage, which will be sorted soon.

* Yeardley Smith also isn\'t too keen on \'\'WesternAnimation/WereBackADinosaursStory\'\', which she only did to break away from the Lisa Simpson image. Hell, \'\'We\'re Back! A Dinosaur\'s Story\'\' was an OldShame for \'\'everyone\'\' who worked on it.
* Creator/RalphBakshi is ashamed of \'\'WesternAnimation/HeyGoodLookin\'\' and \'\'Film/CoolWorld\'\'. The latter was ruined by ExecutiveMeddling.
* Considering it took Disney 13 years to release \'\'WesternAnimation/Dougs1stMovie\'\' onto DVD and then pretty much used the TV edit on the official DVD as opposed to the regular movie, it seems like the studio more or less feels this way towards that movie.
* Donnie Dunagan, the voice of the title character in \'\'Disney/{{Bambi}}\'\' as a child, kept the role a secret through his time in the Vietnam War serving as a Marine Corps boot camp commander, afraid the other soldiers wouldn\'t take him seriously and call him \"Major Bambi.\" Eventually a marine discovered his secret, and he\'s been more open about the role since, even saying he now loves the attention the role brings him.
* Creator/JeffreyKatzenberg feels shame over \'\'WesternAnimation/RiseOfTheGuardians\'\', though more over what it did for his company than for the quality of the film itself.
* Creator/RichardWilliams was so devastated at [[ExecutiveMeddling what happened]] to his flagship film \'\'WesternAnimation/TheThiefAndTheCobbler\'\' that he refused to acknowledge the film\'s existence for a long time.
* Creator/LisaOrtiz has admitted that she finds it \"disturbing\" that people have actually heard of \'\'Animation/{{Ratatoing}}\'\', let alone watch it and review it.
* Martin Vidnovic, who voiced The King in the animated version of \'\'WesternAnimation/TheKingAndI\'\', admits it was pretty bad. It was a bigger OldShame for the Rodgers & Hammerstein estates, who were really displeased with the result of Richard Rich\'s Disneyfication of their work and prompting them to put out a mandate that no other musical from the estate can be adapted for animation.
* Nobody at Pixar is fond of \'\'WesternAnimation/{{Cars 2}}\'\', except for Creator/JohnLasseter.
* Creator/ChrisWedge and Creator/WilliamJoyce felt that they needed more time to work on \'\'WesternAnimation/{{Robots}}\'\'.
* For the longest time, Creator/LeonardNimoy refused to even mention his participation in \'\'WesternAnimation/TransformersTheMovie\'\', to the consternation of fans. His complete disavowal of all things Transformers-related finally cracked when he was convinced to voice Sentinel Prime in \'\'Film/TransformersDarkOfTheMoon\'\'.
** Orson Welles wasn\'t terribly fond of the movie either, having done it [[MoneyDearBoy for the money]]. When asked what role he played in the film, he said he was \"[[MerchandiseDriven a toy]] who does horrible things to other toys.\"
* One of the animators is ashamed of \'\'WesternAnimation/{{Foodfight}}\'\' and even said [[http://www.amazon.co.uk/review/R3G641B07U3ZEL/ref=cm_cr_dp_title/278-4630214-3644732?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B008NAV1ZC&channel=detail-glance&nodeID=283926&store=dvd on Amazon]]:
-->\"I actually worked on this movie for a bit. It was one of my first jobs in the industry and let me tell you, if you think it was a train wreck viewing, you should have seen how terrible it was to work on it. The sad truth is there were plenty of talented people working there. many of those people moved on to major studios in both film, TV and games. The bottom line is the director, Larry Kasanoff is a talent-less, classless scumbag that should be banned from Hollywood until the end of time. All of the inappropriate innuendos are a direct product of his \"creative hand\". I cannot tell you how many times this moron derailed production with his brainless input. It literally has cost the studio millions of dollars. They eventually stepped in and removed him from the project. Unfortunately, that was a decade and millions of dollars late. I am so ashamed of this movie that I have completely left working there off of my resume. On behalf of the many artists that have had the dubious distinction of working on this dumpster fire, I apologize to all of humanity for our part in this.\"
** An animator for \'\'WesternAnimation/TheKingAndI\'\' has also said they didn\'t care for much it as have the animators of \'\'WesternAnimation/QuestForCamelot\'\' including Lauren Faust.
* Most of the recent 2D films from Disney (well, those released since Emperor\'s New Groove) are now considered old shames as well (with Lilo and Stitch being the arguable exception), especially \'\'Treasure Planet\'\' and \'\'Atlantis:The Lost Empire\'\' (they did not make Disney as much money as expected and merchandise for those films has become scarce).
* {{Creator/Disney}} does everything in its power to make people forget about \'\'Film/SongOfTheSouth\'\', due to its UnfortunateImplications. This has led to some AdaptationDisplacement for their [[Ride/DisneyThemeParks Splash Mountain]] ride, which uses the characters from the animated segments. \"Zip-a-dee-doo-dah\" falls into the same boat; Disney still uses the song, and most people know it, but they don\'t know where it comes from.
** For many years, Disney was also deeply ashamed of \'\'Film/TheBlackCauldron\'\', a film that performed so horribly upon release that it nearly killed their animation department; and that\'s not even getting into the troubled production that saw it go through multiple edits to make it more palatable for audiences unfamiliar with its source material. A VHS release of the film was not granted until 1998, a full \'\'thirteen years\'\' after the movie\'s original release, and this was only after considerable pressure from the film\'s growing fanbase. Even with this and an eventual DVD release in 2010, the film remains virtually unseen among the studio\'s vast array of merchandise.

** Pratchett refers, with pride, to a teenage American reader who wrote to him, about \\\'\\\'Discworld/LordsAndLadies\\\'\\\', that he had to go to a dictionary to understand the description of the Elf-King as \\\"priapic\\\". He - and his mother - had thought the word was something OldeEnglishe about maypoles and folk-dancing...

I\\\'d also point out that L&L makes a RunningGag of the phrase \\\"I\\\'ve got a great big tonker\\\" in relation to the Elf-King, which is a bit less subtle.
