Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


Semi-inspired by Jeff's "White Chicks" post

As Jeff will know, my friends and I have an intermittently occurring series of get-togethers aptly titled "Bad Movie Night". The rules, as best we can figure, entail getting buzzed... walking to Blockbuster... finding the worst major-release they have... and exponentially increasing our blood-alcohol contents while watching said cinematic catastrophe. So far, we've seen You Got Served and Soul Plane (which sort of killed it for us... how do you ever hope to beat that!?)... and then after a hiatus, we made a brief foray into the OnDemand world to watch Zombie Strippers, a Jenna Jameson production which is neither a major release nor -- surprisingly enough -- a porno. Just a bad bad mercilessly bad film (though Soul Plane was worse).

 

While discussing Jeff's "fictional" post with a friend yesterday, she advised me never to see White Chicks. To which I instantly replied, "well, now I pretty much have to." Which took me on a tangent to "which do you think is worse, White Chicks or The Hot Chick?" (the Rob Schneider Holocaust for the Soul). So we decided we should resurrect Bad Movie Night and find out.

 

Brought the topic up again in the office. Co-worker threw in The Hottie and the Nottie, by the Second Coming of Alfred Hitchcock Paris Hilton, but he immediately stipulated that "it wouldn't really be fair to categorize that with any other movie... except maybe Glitter." So guess what our second pairing will be.

 

And just for kicks, I toss Biodome into the ring.

 

Someone is going to die. Whether it's from alcohol poisoning or physical assault as elicited by these Silver Screen abortions is anyone's guess. Now taking bets...

You Got Served was so fucking funny.

The part where the main dude is trying to “train” and his knee is fucked up had me on the floor. Somehow the director made it seem as though the guy was like LT trying to play on a broken leg, the way he cringed and tried to fight through it. Fantasic unintentional comedy.

Also the fact that people actually do have dance-offs like the ones in movies saddens me.

When I worked at a video store I did Bad Movie Night once a month

The biggest hit was the night I did the double feature of Ed and Dunston Checks In; another memorable one was the can’t-miss double feature of Cool As Ice and DC Cab.

"Cool as Ice" was pretty damn amazing

and by amazing I mean horrifying. Let me set the scene. When the movie starts, we see our hero, Vanilla Ice, riding his crazy fast motorcycle with his crazy motorcycle buddies, wearing all sorts of early-90’s bright colored leathers and whatnot. They ride by this house that has all sorts of lawn gnomes, windmills, and other stupid lawn ephemera in the front yard; Mr. Ice and the boys stop their motorcycles, Ice removes his helmet (giving us a shot of a glorious, mulletish haircut), looks at his friends, and says

“YO…WHAT’S UP WITH THE CRAZY WACK HOUSE?”

and it just gets better from there.

It seems wrong to judge kids' movies on the same scale, though, doesn't it?

It’s so much more tragic when the movie is intended for adults.

Is it just me, or is this AJ trade looking worse every day?

So the club is in last place? And the kid is a pitcher? How the hell can a starting pitcher completely turn the team around and get them to win the World Series? Does he pitch every day?

Besides, he throws a fastball. That’s it. MLB players tee off on fastballs. How is he getting them out?

And if you’re going the camp classic route, anything Coffin Joe is great, specifically This Night I Will Possess Your Corpse. Coffin Joe’s movies are undeniably bad in just about every way possible, but they’re also undeniably genius. He’s like a significantly more morbid version of Ed Wood.

I didn't finish these, they were so bad. Maybe if were drunk...

They’re a natural pair, too:

Mr. Write (1994), “starring” Paul Reiser. My girlfriend and I rented this, watched 15 minutes, and had to stop. And I’m one of those guys who pretty much has to watch to the end.

Mr. Wrong (1996), “starring” Ellen DeGeneres and Bill Pullman. Same girlfriend, this time at the theater. Actually may have seen to the end, but fortunately blocked it out.

Yeah, there was

It just added to the legend of the old one. I remember seeing the Keaton one on the shelf at Hollywood Video and was amazed that they bothered to remake the movie, before I picked it up and saw what it was about

Was it a 'major release' whatever that means?

Sooo many possibilities for this genre, but I don’t think any would qualify.

It was out enough to be sitting on the new release shelf at Blockbuster Video 10 or so years ago

I still see it when I wander past the Horror section at the movie stores

The 'new releases' shelf seems to include 12,356 horror movies

that never saw theatrical release.

I mean, I’m with you- you can find ‘Jack Frost’ anywhere, so that would meet my definition of ‘major release’ but in terms of being released theatrically on 2,000 screen or whatever, probably not.

I hope it wasn't on screens

Because holy shit what a waste of money

No, no..

I remember the ads. It was a major release, most tragically.

Gerry

Gus Van Sant directs Casey Affleck and Matt Damon walking through the desert for an hour and half. Almost no dialog, but lots of deep, semi homo-erotic, passive aggressive looks between the actors, while a piano plays slowly.

A representative sampling:

So that one needs to be paired with Good Will Hunting.

Or just go with Good Will Hunting and Dead Poets Society for a inspiring Robin Williams night.

Don't forget Patch Adams.

I've been trying to forget Patch Adams since the day it came out.

Because that was the day that I officially realized that Robin Williams was no longer funny, and it even made me question whether he was ever actually funny in the first place.

The Cronenberg version.

I have to agree.

I like using semi-colons; they make me feel smart.

by Llewdor on Aug 1, 2008 4:23 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

The Cronenberg version is awesome.

The new one is everything I hate about Hollywood message movies wrapped up into one two hour block of garbage.

Yeah, I was talking about the Paul Haggis film.

I find it offensive how pandering and simplistic that piece of shit was. One of the few movies that have ever made me truly angry.

Ludacris: “I can’t believe those white people are looking at us like we’re going to steal their car.”
Other guy: “Yeah, that’s racist!”
Ludacris: “Let’s steal their car!”

I’ve never seen the Cronenberg movie. I started to read the book but never finished it.

It's Cronenbergian.

You like it or hate it. No real middle ground with that guy.

by acblue on Aug 1, 2008 7:09 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

It's EXTRA Cronenbergian.

Might I recommend something more accessible first? Like Videodrome?

I'm not sure if I'd call Videodrome more accessible than Crash.

A History of Violence is probably his most accessible film, followed by Eastern Promises and probably the Fly.

Although, those are also his least Cronenbergian films, so I guess Videodrome would be his most accessible auteur sort of film.

You simply must see Rubin and Ed

with Crispin Glover.

but Rubin and Ed is definitely…interesting.

The woman that makes my suits

also has made a few suits for him. The last time I picked one up he had one waiting for him – an entirely red velvet number, which was pretty dang impressive.

You should probably just go to

www.badmovies.org

And start with A and work you way down the list.

I’ve seen more movies from this site than the IMDB.com top 100.

It doesn't list the House of Mirth

It is therefore inadequate.

Surf Ninjas Must Die

That’s probably the worst movie I’ve seen. It was worse than Beach Babes from Beyond.

Hmmm.

I’m not sure what is classified as a “Major release” but my buddies and me did this ~20 years ago while in high school.

The movie we unanimously agreed was the worst ever? Revenge of the Cheerleaders.

We watched a metric f-ton of horrible movies. This one by far takes the moldy cake.

As an added bonus, it was the motion picture debut of none other than David Hasselhoff…

Starring Molly Ringwold.

Alternately, the Tawny Kitaen vehicle The Perils of Gwendoline in the Land of Yik Yak.

Nothing but Trouble

Worst. Movie. Ever. Chevy Chase, Demi Moore, John Candy, and Dan Akroyd in a movie so bad, it literally made me question blinding myself. If I ever meet any of the surving actors they get a slap in the face, and I am convinced this film kept John Candy out of heaven.

Need more Sharon Stone!

“King Solomon’s Mine”. Richard Chamberlain lead in an ‘action/adventure’ movie? Are you fucking kidding me?

“Action Jackson”. Carl Weathers as Jericho ‘Action’ Jackson. There were so many cheesy lines in this movie I just bumped it to the top of the queue.

Sorry

At the time (1988) any movie with Vanity in it gets a free pass.
