16 !!! and probably all thanks to the wonders of HBO/Showtime. Guess it's not a wonder why I cancelled the services a couple of years ago. At 1 am guys will watch any [!@#%^&^] on TV.

 

Worst ones? Battlefield Earth, Kazaam, & Leonard Part 6

Best ones? Santa/Martians is good for the campiness factor and Bolero almost proved that even nudity can be boring at times.

The real question is how many of those were on MST3K? I know I've seen three- Hercules in New York, Santa Claus Conquers the Martians and 'Manos' the Hands of Fate. What's scary is I'd already seen the first two without the benefit of the MST3K treatment.

I would love to see MST3K versions of several of the "non-sci-fi" movies... especially if they used the MST3K cast from circa 1992, but that's another matter entirely...

 

I can't even imagine an MST3K version of "From Justin To Kelly"... foreheadslap.gif

Manos was my favorite thanks to the MST3K treatment, without which, the film would be totally unwatcheable. I have it in my collection. But I was surprised by the absence of THE DEAD TALK BACK and BEAST OF YUCCA FLATS. I would have thought they's be further into this teritory.

What the heck... I'm a huge movie buff and shark fan. Anybody see in the news yesterday that Orca throw around his trainer like a rag doll? Lucky he wasn't hurt. Reminded me of Roy's experience but with much different consequences. -----Sid

Kazaam (1996)

I've only seen the above two movies... maybe I'll watch two minutes of Catwomen... can anyone recommend which 2 minutes are worth watching?

Really? You haven't seen any of them? foreheadslap.gif

 

I can understand skipping Glitter and Gigli... but Hercules in New York is a downright classic! tongue.gif

 

Especially if you can see the director's cut with Arnold's actual voice instead of the dubbed version. thumbsup2.gif

 

Oh I have to disagree the whole dubbed voice thing is one of the best things to the movie. I was disappointed when I rented it and they had his actual voice. frown.gif

You Got Served (2004)

 

I saw this on DVD and I liked it. I rented it with the mindset that I would not be seeing any Oscar winning performances. For me, it was like watching a really long music video and the dancing on it is absolutely bananas. If anyone is into B-Boying, this is a fairly decent flick.
