Super Mario Bros (1993) is one of my favorite movies of all time.
It’s a bizarre mess of a film, full of counter-culture icons in a weird sci-fi dystopian setting. Despite being objectively awful, there isn’t another movie quite like it, and it’s a fun watch.
It’s a shame that the nightmarish production took such a heavy toll on everyone involved in the project because I’d like to see more screwball adaptations of things
UHF went up against Batman in the summer of 1989. It made only 6 million at the box office and cost 5 million to make. But that film became a cult classic because it was an absolute banger that everyone slept on.
Guy Ritchie’s OG cut of Revolver (not the shit “director’s” cut).
Epic film.
White Chicks
I liked Terry Cruise that was about it.
i like all of M Night Shyamalan’s movies prior to The Happening. Signs, The Village, and Lady in the Water are some of my favorite movies.
Would you care to make a case for Lady in the Water? I don’t recall a huge amount of that movie, but what’s there is not positive. Admittedly, his gall in writing a character who is destined to save the world through his art, and then casting himself in said role, left a pretty sour taste in my mouth, but I shouldn’t let that affect the other aspects of the film.
yeah i agree there are aspects about LITW that are a bit arrogant (also how the movie critic character died), and the fairy tale backstory is a bit silly. But aside from that I really love the story of Paul Giamatti’s character, and he gives a hell of an acting performance. It’s worh watching just for him. His interactions with all the characters around the apartment complex are also pretty amusing. Jeffrey Wright, Bob Balaban, Bill Irwin, and more.
Signs especially is so good. Really great performances from the core characters. The payoff at the end of all the threads coming together is great. All the criticisms against it are valid, but I still love it.
exactly. I feel like after 6th Sense MNS got pigeonholed as the “twist” guy and that’s all most people judged his movies on, but there’s so much more good stuff going on in them. Even The Happening had some redeeming qualities but that’s when he really started slipping.
The Village is a great example of marketing killing a movie. It was a good film, but the way it was marketed, people were expecting a horror movie, or at least a storyline that centered around scary monsters in the woods. No wonder people were disappointed.
I fucking loved Moonfall, it was spectacular.
Shark Tale from Dreamworks
Going postal.
Megalopolis. Flew way over peoples heads, I didn’t really feel I fully understood it until the 2nd or 3rd viewing.
Both G.I. Joe movies are my guilty pleasure.
Joker 2 Electric Boogaloo. I thought it was well made, thought provoking, and a good critique of all the chuds who idolised the first film for the wrong reasons.
League of extraordinary gentlemen. I think I liked it mostly for the art direction. I do wish this franchise will get rebooted as a series of streaming movies or something. The source material is fun.
I’m still waiting for the adventure to continue. Remo Williams was a great pilot that should have set up a series or at least some sequels
In a time where everything is getting a remake/sequel it’s definitely time we give one to Remo Williams. I can’t think of a more deserving movie.

I love Dave Barry"s writing.
Having a finale where there is a nuke on a passenger plane come out right after 9/11 kind of killed it. They held back it’s release for years and them quietly dumped it.
Crazy I just thought of this movie today. “Was that a goat?”
I didn’t actually really care for it. Sorry
Titan A.E. isn’t great, but for some reason i enjoyed it.
Ditto Battle: Los Angeles
