Saw this at a screening in DC. Bruce Campbell was there for a post movie Q&A.

That's been on my list for ages. I really need to watch it

Don't know what you mean, plot makes perfect sense. Hard boiled Kung Fu detective fights nazi robots with dinosaurs

Clue is legit one of my favorites

Fucking love this movie!

Kills a dude in the opening coupla minutes with a carrot, Peak.

This edit never fails to crack me up

That's just like your opinion, man.

Shut the fuck up Donny

Iron sky is a masterpiece and anyone who says otherwise is getting the arian treatment.

Its even more mind blowing if you read the book. There are a lot more stupid things he does like becoming a wrestler, and an astronaut who goes on a mission in space with a baboon that he can speak with telepathically. They crash land on an uncharted island full of cannibals and they will only let him escape with their lives he he beats them at a game of chess. For whatever reason he has unlimited tries and after several years finally wins a game of chess, so they send him and his baboon on a raft and they eventually get found.

Obviously these things very fortunately didn't make it into the movie, but it's super weird to me that someone read all of that and was inspired to make it into a movie anyway. Somehow it was actually a very good movie too.

The film maker already stated that Jenny did not have Aids.

Pacific rim was one of those movies that cemented that you can't just say a movie is bad or good. The tomato-meter doesn't have nuance.

There are days I want to come home and experience the perfect sci fi movie with amazing effects, and there are days I want a drama that brings me to tears. Then some days I just want to see giant robots punching the shit out of aliens. All three are good movies for their own merits.

Dude, where’s your car?

So over the top that it's fun again. Throughout the movie, the snakes get progressively bigger until these MASSIVE snake-like schlongs get sucked out of the plane at the end. :D So unrealistic and ridiculous!

And of course, a snake had to bite into a nipple.

They wanted to make really funny and entertaining trash and they did.

Airplane 2 (1 actually had pretty common “disaster movie” plot for the time)

Your fun trivia fact for the day is that Airplane! was actually a remake of a 1950s plane disaster movie called Zero Hour! Same plot, even long stretches where they go same plot points and sometimes even shot for shot...

Airplane! just had a tonal change caused by throwing a bunch of ridiculous gags in, essentially becoming a parody of its origin movie.

If you need a YouTube rabbit hole to fill a couple of hours of dead time at some point, well, there you go.

Seconding Hudson Hawk!

That sounds like genius. Will look it up cheers

I love this movie so much for exactly the same reason

Work of art.

My seven-year-old niece showed me that movie.

I didn't have high expectations going in but it's an absolute banger, largely because of the excellent songs. It is, fundamentally, a musical.

And yes it's silly, but not in the ways that matter.

I remember watching an anime years back which has an anthropomorhpic bread bun who is depressed because he came out the oven burnt. He spends his days working a miserable office job and his evenings getting 'drunk' on 'milk', wishing he wasn't burnt so he could dare ask out the girl of his dreams, the beautiful and perfect strawberry bread.

The guy is literally bread. The premise is as silly as they come, but the characters are real and their feelings are intensely relatable, so it works.

Demon Hunters is the same show. Main girl is trying to make it with her band, but is secretly worried and self-conscious because she's hiding a terrible secret that she knows would tear her friendships and her life apart. And the movie is about how she comes to terms with herself.

So yes it's got unbelievable fights, and earth-protecting barriers that are somehow powered by music, and a group of demons that for some reason decide to form a shit-hot boy band (they're very good). But that's not the movie, that's just the vehicle.

I think whether KPDH has a stupid/ridiculous premise depends on how well it fits with the Korean stuff it's based on. I'm not Korean, I don't know anything about that stuff, so I just accept it at face value and it's fine.

I put this on expecting a trainwreck and a cash grab too, but it still had me laughing my ass off. It really felt like they understood why the originals were so funny.

I love that one of the first items stolen is literally labeled PLOT Device

Smiley Face was made by Greg Araki, who has made some really dark, depressing, and generally fucked-up shit. I mean, he has a movie called "Totally Fucked Up." If not Smiley Face, he may be best known for The Doom Generation. He also made a few movies with James Duval, who was the crop duster's son in Independence Day (his first big film IIRC) and Frank the Bunny in Donnie Darko.

Araki made Smiley Face because his last few movies were so depressing, so he wanted to do something a little brighter. That's why it has "basically no plot," it's a feel-good (ish?) movie.

crickets

LorR trilogy had a decent plot, and is widely considered some of the best films ever made. The less said about The Hobbit the better, other than reminding people that The Hobbit is how Hollywood killed off the New Zealand version of SAG.

Well that’s just, like, your opinion, man.
