Il fait mauvais (the weather is bad) is the opposite of Il fait beau (the weather is nice). In everyday spoken French, people often say il fait moche (literally, “the weather is ugly”). Example: il fait mauvais/moche, il va pleuvoir (the weather's bad/awful, it's going to rain).
Aren't you feeling well, Victor? Il est malade (he is ill) is the opposite of il est en bonne santé (he is in good health), not the opposite of beau (nice). Example: il est malade depuis hier (he's been ill since yesterday).
Vite (fast) is the opposite of lentement (slow), not of beau (nice). Examples: tu parles trop vite (you talk too fast); nous marchons très vite (we're walking very fast).
Il fait froid (it is cold) is the opposite of il fait chaud (it is hot). Example: en hiver, il fait froid et en été il fait chaud (it's cold in winter and hot in summer).
Vieux (old) is the opposite of jeune (young). Note: The feminine form is vieille. Example: un vieux monsieur (an old man); une vieille dame (an old lady).
Gros (big, fat) refers to the weight or volume of someone or something, so is not the opposite of chaud (hot). Note: The feminine form is grosse. Example: j'ai un gros ventre (I have a big belly); elle a une grosse voiture (she has a big car).
