Ok, I've had this idea for a while and Danoff reminded me of it.

• Encino Man
• Son in Law

Cannonball run I'm down with.

But the first two "Rocky's" were actually very good movies. After that is was just about cash.


Good point with the Wraith, I have forgoten all about that one.
 
I am all about both Wayne's World movies and both Bill and Ted movies.

Wayne's World was the first movie I ever owned on video tape. I was 14 and in the hospital for most of the summer, so they brought me a TV and VCR and all I did was watch that movie over and over.

I can quote Wayne's World almost line for line.

Side note: Much to the chagrin of my wife my best friend bought me the Wayne's World two-movie boxed set on DVD. Excellent! 👍
 
Napoleon Dynamite. Terrible, but absolutely hilarious movie. You really have to understand the stupid humor and you cant take it serious otherwise you will hate it.
No special effects or anything. Well mabey the part when Uncle Rico throws the steak into Napoleons face. :lol: :lol:
I still have 30 funny clips from that movie that I recorded to the PC. :)
 
Ok, these are bad, but I'd watch them a million times....
Encino Man,
Son in Law

*ducks to avoid the thrown garbage*
 
I am the worlds biggest lover of bad movies, these are ones of the top of my head:
Tomb raider 1 (& maybe 2, although that was utterly terrible)
Resident Evil 1 & 2
2 fast 2 furious (the 1st one is a good film imo)
Rocky 3 & 4 (the 1st 2 are techinally better films but 3 is far more entertainig)
Doom
Pearl Harbour
Waterworld
Speed 2 ( i actually prefer it to the 1st one)
Anything with Van Damme (up till Replicant, his last good film).

There are hundreds more, cant think right now though.
 
Der Alta
The Guyver, 1 & 2.

Starship Troopers 2.

What a load of crap, but was fun to watch anyway because it was so crap. :lol:

Anything with Pauly Shore is a terrible, yet hilarious movie 👍
 
- Stripes
- Animal House
- The Rocky Horror Picture Show

All terriable, but I love all three.
 
my collection of dvds is filled with those crappy movies that suck to watch alone but are great to watch with my suitemates at collge and just rip on...

Starships troopers 1 and 2 (2 is utter crap but i pretend the main 'badass" dude is richard hatch on roids and it becomes infitinately more funny
Robocops (though i like them they are funny to look back on the special affects)

comedy classics like monty python,the naked guns, hot shots 1 and 2, what about bob, stripes,
 
Kung Pow. So stupid, yet me and my friends have spent so many nights lightin' up some J's and watching it over and over again.
 
Big Trouble in Little China is way too good to be considered stupid... but it gets my 👍 as one of the best bad-ass action movies of all time.

My wife absolutely loves Van Damne movies. Must be something about the amount of butt he shows in each and every one. :lol:

Wayne's World was "excellent".
 
Now, this is my kind of thread! :lol:

I've liked some that were already mentioned like both the Starship Troopers, Fast and the Furious(es), Water World, Resident Evil. I'd add "Ghosts of Mars", "Jeepers Creepers", "The Forsaken", "John Carpenter's Vampires", "Super Troopers", "The Arrival", "Blade 1 & 2", "Assault on the Precinct 13(original & remake)". I'll stop here. My list is pretty much endless. :D
 
I'd have to say Commando, this movie is so ridiculous I couldn't believe my eyes the first time I watched it.

Matrix: Remember, Sully, when I promised to kill you last?
Sully: That's right, Matrix. You did!
Matrix: I lied.
Matrix drops Sully off the cliff.

Freakin' GOLD.
 
The Anchorman is a recent one which i loved but everyone else thought was rubbish. It's just dumb, but so quoteable and funny as hell.
 
As a quick point to a6m5, they actually made a sequel to "the Arrival".

Yes, it was worse.

Wow! I had forgoten about those stupid 80's cash cow action flicks. Yeah, I think that has to be the top tear for dumb movies that are fun to watch if you just don't care about good movie making.
 
Air heads. I remember seeing this film and thinking it was terrable but was quite entertaining in a strange way.
 
Without doubt for me it has to be Jaws 4 (or Jaws: The Revenge)... I remember watching this in the cinema when I was young and even then I thought "Hang on a second, is this really possible?" If a film about sharks can't even suspend the disbelief of a 12-year old boy, then there has to be summat wrong... A classic scene is when Michael Caine's plane crashes into the sea, and he is rescued by Chief Brody, and when he climbs into his boat, his clothes are dry :lol: Must have had his suit laminated or something. The whole premise of the film is quite simply as ridiculous as it gets. A shark with a grudge against a family, and is prepared to swim half way around the world (in just a couple of days) to track them down and kill them (as one reviewer puts it, "even sharks need a Caribbean getaway now and again"... now that's genius! Also, tracking devices on conch shells... :lol: Excellent....

edit: and how could I forget, 'Battlefield Earth' with John Travolta! Words simply cannot describe just how.... ... ..... .... see? there are literally no words invented for this film yet...
 
Swift, you've missed Startship Troopers 2 off the list. ;)
