I ran into an old movie I had on VHS as a kid titled “MegaForce” (1982) (RT link). I hadn’t seen the movie in decades and was worried looking at a rotten tomato score of 6% that if I watched it, I would be completely disappointed in the movie as an adult. Surprisingly, I didn’t realize as a kid that it was actually more of a spoof comedy action movie like a knock-off “Hot Shots” or “Naked Gun” and just completely enjoyed watching it again because it felt like a whole new experience (definitely better than the new G.I. Joe’s lol).
So what’s your movie from your past that you’ll always enjoy no matter how cheesy or horrible it may seem?
Kung Pow: Enter the Fist. Steve Oedekerk is a genius.
Betty?
I will never understand people who think this movie isn’t funny - endlessly quotable:
“That’s a lot of nuts!” “You should be able to beat him now!” “Beware his song about big butts, he beats you up while he plays it!”
I could go on. In a just world he would have gotten to make more films, and not just thumb parody movies.
I am bleeding, making me the victor!
How do you like my face to your foot style? ^Squeak ^^Squeak ^^^Squeak
Early Jean-Claude Van Damme Cyborg, Ultimate Soldier, Kickboxer, Lionheart, but mostly Bloodsport.
They Live and The Stuff. Watched them again recently and really enjoyed them.
So… you weren’t blinded by nostalgia and they were still good? 🤔

Totally- I just think the person I replied to didn’t quite understand the question asked 😆
I saw the stuff for the first time recently and it’s underrated. No nostalgia required
I can recognize that I love the Star Wars prequels for bad reasons.
But also they’re still masterpieces actually.Flight of the navigator.
An entire film to make one E.T. joke.
The Iron Giant for me, but that’s actually a really good movie
Fern Gully
That movie was definitely part of my formative years growing up
But seriously, why are all these movies reminding me of all the great songs. Makes me realize we just don’t have that many these days with great original soundtracks
Tim Curry as the toxic Hexus dude is amazing
Tim Curry has brought so much to every roll. High-school friends of me swooned over him in Muppet Treasure Island… and we can never forget.
SPACE!

R-R-RETURN THE MAP!!
R-R-RETURN WHAT YOU HAVE STOLEN!!
Joe dirt and Mr. deeds
Joe Dirt is a fantastic movie.
Space Jam. It’s not a bad film, it’s a good “bad film”. It’s like everyone involved from the writers to the voice actors to the lighting and camera crews knew this was going to be a pile of crap so they said screw it and just had the most fun making said crap pile. That shows through, and it totally saves the film! It is no longer just a lazily made cash grab, it’s a “look what you get to do sometimes if you allow yourself to have fun” statement. As a film it should be bad but all that heart in it makes it good!

lol how true to the movie is this trailer?
The music in the trailer doesn’t fit at all. It’s way too dramatic and fast paced. And it left out a huge element of the film that wouldn’t have been a spoiler, and makes the whole trailer inaccurate.
I love this movie, but you can tell it was made with television broadcast in mind because it literally has regular fades to black where commercials would go.
I think it would be fantastic if it were remastered either with cleaned up higher-res animation or new animation altogether.
yeah I didn’t think that trailer was right so thought I would ask (was the only trailer that popped up). I did see someone uploaded the full movie on youtube so gotta check it out today!
The movie is decent, but the premise and how it plays out is why I love it. Cool ideas.
I haven’t seen that since I was a kid, but I still remember this part: “Eleven! Your dragon fire melts my eyes.”
I might not even have the quote right but that’s what kid-me remembers.
Yeah, it’s a bit off, LOL. But from now on I’ll hear it your way :)
