    You are a blasphemer, sir. You blaspheme. The ED trilogy was inarguably the greatest film trilogy ever produced, and, yes, I am also measuring this against the original Star Wars trilogy and LOTR.

    And Bubba Hotep... I don't even know what to say to you.

    NO. This movie is awesome.

    "THIS? Is family? You call THIS a family?"

    I dunno, the movie works for me. A movie about a family of giant ninja turtles works.

    This movie is the best movie. Period. No worst about it.

    That was actually kind of awesome. The idea that a restuarant kitchen is so chaotic somebody could be firing off automatic weapons and nobody would notice seems strangely true-to-life.

    You just praised Leonard Part 6. I think that's a $500 fine minimum in most states.

    I don't know if this is the best worst movie ever, but it sure as hell ranks.

    Here is a particularly surreal scene where Robin Williams catches his disembodied head with a butterfly net.

    If you thought Big Trouble in Little China was bad....

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqKFadyJxwg

    In this movie, WWF-star Rowdy Roddy Piper's character finds special glasses that reveal the world as it truly is—overrun by evil aliens posing as humans, advertising and billboards riddled with menacing subtexts ordering you to OBEY, etc.

    In the above scene, Rowdy Roddy Piper has a friend, and he understandably wants this friend to try on these glasses to see what he is talking about. The friend refuses, and they brutally, inexplicably fight each other for like five fucking minutes.

    Flight of the Navigator

    Oh my god, this has got to be one of my favorite movies growing up. I will admit I'm not sure whether this is a so bad it's good movie, heck to me over half the movies in this thread are outright awesome, I just wanted to post this here cause of the awesomeness D:.

    Maybe I liked the movie a bit too much...

    As long as we're talking Raimi, does The Quick and The Dead qualify?

    It had Russell Crowe before he was Russell Crowe, Leonardo DiCaprio before he was Leonardo DiCaprio.
    Gene Hackman, Lance Henrikson, Sharon Stone.

    The only thing it was missing was Bruce Campbell and Raimi's 1973 Oldsmobile Delta Royale.

    Oh hell yeah, Killer Klowns. Awesome horrible movie.

    Wicker Man was just plain old bad, though.

    Which version? The 70s version had all this unnecessary nudity that was common around that time, which made watching it a little more bearable.

    Hold up, the original Wicker Man is a bad movie?

    Since when?

    An awful lot of it was boring and slow paced, the mystery about the missing girl was pretty well telegraphed, and the main character was such an abrasive moralizer that I wasn't sad at the way the movie ended.

    The point is kind of that his staunch moral uprightness is what gets him killed in the end. It's slow-paced because it helps build up the atmosphere.

    And damnit now I feel compelled to dig out my old film studies notes.

    I host Bad Movie Nights at my place periodically where I get old college friends together to watch some of the best of the worst, and it please me to see that most of our greatest hits are already mentioned here. It does not get much better than Bloodsport, Flash Gordon, They Live, Big Trouble in Little China, and Zardoz. Though Point Break and Roadhouse are both so far up there that it is not acceptable to mention Mr. Swayze without calling him "Patrick Fuckin Swayze" on a Bad Movie Night. The man has earned it.

    All-time favorite though? Crank. Easily. Best bad movie over. Eminently quotable, gleefully over the top, an absurdly great concept...what's not to like? :lol:

    Most disappointing selection ever: Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter. Sounds great, but isn't good bad, it's just bad. So boring that I went to sleep and told my friends to wake me up when the movie ended or they couldn't take any more and decided to leave - whichever came first.

    Missing from the selections thus far: Slither. Great B-movie quality horror movie with Nathan Fillion as Sheriff Bill Pardy, an invasion of alien slugs that take over people's bodies, and Michael Rooker as the first to encounter the slithering little beasties. Like most of my favorite bad movies, it features a host of quality lines.

    Not nearly as good as the rest but still enjoyable: DoA - The Movie. Not the Miike title mentioned previously, but the action movie based on the video game fighting series. A popular title all the way around with my usual suspects for the utter silliness at times, and the eye candy. Eric Roberts as the main villain, a true indicator of a bad movie with potential if ever there was one. Well, aside from the combination of Patrick Fuckin Swayze and action movies.

    RRP and Frank are fighting cuz Frank refuses to wear the glasses! It's about as inexplicable as Humphry Bogart telling whats-her-face to get on that damned plane.

    I would not repeatedly pile-drive someone into cement for refusing to wear glasses.

    Nor would I repeatedly pile-drive someone into cement for trying to make me put on glasses.

    I'm trying to think of a more inexplicable fight scene and the closest I can come is that part in Kung Fu Hustle where the three warriors randomly decide to fight each other. Incidentally, should Kung Fu Hustle be on here?

    Besides they didn't really randomly start fighting, probably more a mix of honor and curiosity with how well their technique fairs against their former neighbors.

    GUYS. Why has no one mentioned The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension yet? If you enjoyed John Lithgow in 3rd Rock from the Sun, you ain't seen nothing yet.

    This movie features, among other things :

    -Peter Weller
    -Jeff Goldblum
    -Characters named Perfect Tommy and John Bigboote (pronounced BigBooty and played by Christopher Lloyd)
    -Unintelligible technobabble that makes zero sense, but in the best way
    -John Lithgow in perhaps his most out-there role EVER.

    I feel bad for Gene Kelly.

    Also, when they say "it's a love story about a boy and a girl from two very different worlds..." they're referring to the fact that Michael Beck plays a starving artist, and Olivia Newton John plays a mythical creature from ancient greece.

    I hope you're not impugning the godly physique of Bolo Yeung.

    Anywho...I have to take exception to some movies that have been mentioned in here.

    1.) Dragonslayer - Not a bad movie. It has the best classic medieval wizard (Sir Ralph Richardson, deft with the Latin), and hands down the best dragon ever put on film.

    2.) The Adventures of Baron Munchausen - Even if the acting wasn't good and the special effects weren't better than anything we deserve, it has a young naked Uma Thurman. Game, set, match.

    3.) Masters of the Universe - I don't know, this might just be bad bad. Even when I was a kid, I saw this and thought "This bears almost no resemblance to the cartoon, and is poorer for it." I mean, since when did Skeletor have Stormtroopers?
