The Tripods (the BBC show). I loved it so much, still love it tbh. Still angry, that there was no season 3.

I've not had a chance to experience this infamous Mario Bros movie. Hope I can find some time to sit down and really immerse myself.

Also, can I interest anyone in the masterworks of Neil Breen?

[–] DakRalter@thelemmy.club 3 points 1 day ago

The Breen is something you need the moral support of others to watch. I traumatised a colleague by making him and another friend watch Twisted Pair with me. I watched two Breens alone after that, since the other two refused to watch any more with me, and it was painful.

"I'm not seeing another psychiatrist. I'm not. I'm not seeing another psychiatrist. I'm not seeing another psychiatrist. I'm not."

(Is that lines from a Breen film, or my reaction after watching a Breen film?)

They maintain the Breen is a troll, but I think he's got delusions of grandeur and really thinks he's making these deep masterpieces.

SpyKids trilogy, and Shark boy and Lava girl rule still rules.

idk if it was terrible because I haven't watched it in over 20 years.. but that'd be Space Jam for me. Watched it so often, the VHS gave out and we had to buy it a second time.

Disney's The Black Cauldron. Apparently it was so bad it like...almost killed off Disney animation for good? But I loved that shit as a kid. No idea why we had it, either. I was born almost a decade after it came out. Eilonwy deserves her place with the Disney Princesses, damn it!

The Last Dragon. It's a blacksploitation movie that was trying to mirror popular kung fu movies, but "in the ghetto".

It's cringe. The fight scenes are meh. The plot is.... something to do with a kidnapping maybe?

It has some cool glowy bits. 10/10.

Maximum Overdrive and Over the Top for sure.

I can count on one hand how many people I've met that have seen Maximum Overdrive. That was one of my favorite movies growing up, and now I'm a huge fan of Stephen King.

Oh there are so, so many awful movies that I loved as a kid that I have a positive memory of but would be better off not watching again to ruin that memory.

Legend would have to be one of them. It’s still a spectacle to watch, and Tim Curry is incredible as Darkness, Robert Picardo is Meg Mucklebones, but it’s so far over the top it’s a fever dream.

Cave Man with Ringo Star, Shelly Long, and Dennis Quaid. Laughed so hard I cried when I was a kid. Watched it again not too long ago and it’s pretty bad.

Whoopee Boys, same as Cave Man. Cannot rewatch.

Buckaroo Banzai, Revenge of the Nerds, so many other bad movies I loved as a kid. Most of the cheap action films too. Schwarzenegger’s, Stallone’s, Van Damme’s…so bad, lol. There were some absolutely great ones, though…the original Predator (‘87) comes to mind.

I don't know how They Live ended up having two professional wrestlers giving us the worst fight scene since Kirk took on a Gorn.

But at least we got some badass one liners.

1999's The Night of the Headless Horseman. Very '90s CG but if you're able to get past that it's amazing, one of my top two favorite tellings of the tale, with voice actors including Mark Hamill, Clancy Brown, Tia Carrere, Bill Fagerbakke, and William H Macy.

That film is well beyond bad, it's so, so bad it's actually amazing. I try to get as drunk as the actors when i rewatch it every other year or so
