Also, from last time this discussion happened, I think I'm still good with the picks of Pixels, Get Hard, Entourage, and Hitman.

Pan is a legitimately entertaining movie - it's basically a cynical grunge/goth reskin of Stardust, and while it made me roll my eyes dozens of times, it was always with a kind of amazed smile on my face.

It is simply too interesting to be bad, especially culturally.

To be fair, Foodfight is the kind of awful that you could dedicate multiple episodes to and still not even scrape the sides.

I'm actually excited to see it when it hits DVD, it looks like it could be some seriously fun camp.

Now let's just see what tonight's movie is...

I mean, if the idea of seeing Hugh Jackman dressed as a budget Baron Samedi solemnly intoning the lyrics to "Smells Like Teen Spirit" doesn't appeal to you, I don't know that you can even call yourself a film fan at all!

I had bad parents so I had to endure things like seeing Down and Out in Beverly Hills in the theater

On the plus side, they did buy a copy of Beverly Hills Cop as their first VHS tape.

It cost them $80.

e: man, Down and Out in Beverly Hills would make a fantastic episode, I can hear the Nick Nolte impressions already

Maybe this is why it didn't really do it for me, "what if a colorful cartoon for kids is actually dark and hosed up???" is such well-trodden ground on the internet. They even did the "the whole thing is the dying dream of a character who actually die in the first act" thing.

Still funnier than the one about Scooby-Doo taking place after an apocalyptic recession which is why there are so many spooky abandoned buildings and they all live in a van and acquiring property is so important to the villains. Or the one about how Ed Edd n' Eddy takes place in purgatory because there are no adults and the kids all seem to come fom different cultures and eras.

usually i would agree, but they arnt taking it seriously/or pretending too take it seriously, so it just works for me. besides, i never thought i would hear the phrase "an army of red rockets" in the context of care bears.

I admit I don't like the Animation Damnnations where they're constantly going "but wait this low-effort cartoon doesn't make logical sense!", but I think it worked here because they were building on the weirdness instead of trying to pick apart the logic and apply realism to it.

The Care Bears movies have disturbingly detailed Wikipedia pages, especially the first one.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Care_Bears_Movie (drawing on 233 separate sources)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Care_Bears_Movie_II:_A_New_Generation (108 sources)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Care_Bears_Adventure_in_Wonderland (79 sources)

They get less detailed as the series goes along, as even the obsessive stopped caring. But now I know that both the first and second movies are based on Goethe, are examples of Christian socialism, and Harry Dean Stanton is Brave Heart Lion's singing voice in the first one.

That's actually a remarkably interesting Wiki article. Kinda makes it seem like the Care Bears movie is partly responsible for reviving animated films after Disney hit its 70s/80s slump- not sure if that's true, I tend to hear Roger Rabbit credited more for that, but I can buy it.

Unfortunately I found this podcast in October, which means I didn't get to call in the most ridiculous movie of all time, 2003's Party Monster.


I was going to write a description of the movie, but then I found this picture of the dvd cover, which I think sums everything up pretty handily.

Hilariously, by far. It's basically 90 minutes of Macaulay Culkin and Seth Green doing lots of drugs, wearing hideous non-clothes, putting on atrocious 'british' accents, and being obnoxious.
