The Adventures of Ford Fairlane
I definitely wouldn’t class it as “objectively terrible” but I have been seeing a lot of sentiment that the tonal shift in Click made the movie awful, and if the script had been taken more seriously from the start that it could have been a great movie.
I actually found the movie to be great, it was one of my favourites when it first came out.
Moonfall. Terrible ratings, etc, but I own that shit on Bluray cause I love it so much.
AeonFlux is pretty bad, I watch it every few years. Never saw the show.
Lego the movie
They said objectively terrible
There is a movie called Club Paradise. Mid-80’s comedy starring Robin Williams and Jimmy Cliff, Twiggy, a bunch of 80’s comedy regulars, Peter O’Toole is in it. The plot of the film is local honest people vs corrupt government and business, but minute to minute it’s mostly a spring break shenanigans movie starring a bunch of adults? Like, Rick Moranis and Eugene Levy play a pair of potheads named Barry and Barry who repeatedly fail to score weed and chicks.
It has mostly negative reviews, but I’m fond of it. It DOES NOT work as a cinema film, I cannot imagine going to a theater, sitting reverently and quietly as it boomed down at me, but it works on TV as “let’s put a tape in while we’re getting ready for Family Saturday Afternoon Hobby Outing/waiting for Family Saturday Afternoon Hobby Venue to open.”
I’ve been told Madame Web is objectively bad. I like it. I like the atmosphere of it. I like the main character despite reports that the actress gave an intentionally bad performance. I like the Britney Spears song playing in the diner scene. I like the story of her suddenly having to look after three teenagers. I know there are plot holes but I don’t care. I like the comedy, that may or may not have been intentional. I like that Peter Parker is born in it, but I don’t get why they don’t say his name. Yeah, overall I like this movie but nobody else seems to.
mine is Pluto Nash. I offer no real defense for the movie, it’s a hot mess, but I’ve always enjoyed it for some reason.
Lethal Weapon #4
The plot is “have seen it before, many times”.
The stunts are “have seen it before, and after, many times”.
But I just love their jokes.
Lethal Weapon 4 is a masterpiece compared to the dumpster fire Lethal Weapon 5 quickly turned into. So much unnecessary full frontal nudity and I’m pretty sure the guy playing Roger Murtaugh was wearing blackface.
Lethal Weapon 5 hasn’t been made yet.
What was it that you saw…?
Edit: wait those guys look familiar
Edit2: Goddamn it
Hudson Hawk, Bruce Willis’ longtime passion project where he and Danny Aiello play singing cat burglars.
I genuinely love it despite it not being very good at all. Saw it in the theater knowing nothing at all about it.
God that movie is awful. I love it.
Turks fruit with Rutger Hauer en Monique van der Ven.
While I didn’t love this movie, I don’t think it was terrible either lol. He’s a very charismatic actor and elevates any film he stars in, not just the ones where he is typecast as a villain.
I think it was poorly directed - it wasn’t the actors fault! The director was Paul Verhoeven, admittedly he had some successes in the USA after that (robocop was fun) but he created another badly directed movie with Black Book, which was again a pity, as Carice van Houten is a great actress.
Related rant: it doesn’t have to be perfect to be unironically enjoyable. 15 years of cynical YouTube reviewers have conditioned us to think otherwise.
Not a movie, but I’ve learned to love amateur sci fi stories because I love seeing someone’s raw imagination unfiltered by editors and focus groups, even if I have to slog through some bad prose. Sure it’s a different kind of enjoyment than I get out of more polished fare, but it is genuine appreciation.
Tremors
What’s objectively terrible about Tremors?
The TV series and movies beyond the third one are objectively terrible. But the first two are solid films and the third one is good for a laugh.
maybe they meant one of the many completely unnecessary sequels?
Hackers, Waterworld, The Postman
More boobies would have made me love wateworld
Great concept though
The postman was good. Sure it’s a generic post-apocalyptic romp with a positive message. But I liked it.
Them: “Waterworld is crap, it’s just Mad Max on water”
Me: “that sounds awesome”
I honestly have no idea how WaterWorld was not a huge hit, I loved that movie … I’m also very afraid to re-watch it since I haven’t seen it in quite a while.
It was a pretty big hit at the time but the production costs got so out of control I don’t think it made it’s money back. I’m sure in the long run it’s done ok.
Waterworld
Dennis Hopper was just crushing it back in the day.
Hack the planet! God that movie is such an amazing time capsule.
“Twelve megabytes of RAM, 500 megabyte hard drive. Built-in spreadsheet capabilities and a modem that transmits at over 28,000 BPS.”
I just watched Blade for the first time. The computer model of the ascension chamber felt a lot like the visualization of the Gibson mainframe operated by that magician/skateboarder duo
I have it on Blu-ray and I love it.
