You might as well suggest he watch Batman and Robin. I mean, Jesus. At least Manos is watchable for the sheer nonsensical hilarity of it.

Also.

BATTLEFIELD EARTH

Saw none of the movies that you mentioned.

[Mongoose]

The Quick and the Dead is the most ridiculous western you'll ever see.

I kind of look at that as a good good movie, or at least a good decent one.

Nope. The screenplay was floating in deep space by Voyager II, which trasmitted images back to allow the movie to be made. Scientists have theorized that the screenplay artifact could very well pre-date the universe itself. For all intents and purposes, Buckaroo Banzai was never "created." It has always been.

While I was on the bus in the Philippines they were playing this on the DVD player. Words can not describe how stupidly awesome (and awesomely stupid) this movie was.

I got curious. Incidentally Youtube happens to have the full movie with english subtitles in 15 minute chunks, so I watched it from there. Not a bad movie really, it was somewhat entertaining and the message it was telling was interesting.

That's why I mentioned it. It's definitely a very watchable movie. The storyline is interesting and you definitely do want to see how it ends. I would definitely watch it again cause I only got on the bus at about the point the robot was saving people from the burning building and I'd like to see the start.

It's just that I can't actually come straight out and say it's a good movie cause there are so many things wrong with it.

[Belisarius]

May I mention the Boondock Saints? I loved that film, because it's made so ridiculous in some scenes especially for the credit scene after the courtyard scene.

The first thing I did after watching that movie was buying myself a trenchcoat

How has Megashark Vs Giant Octopus not been mentioned yet? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I16_8l0yS-g

Zardoz should also get an honorable mention.

I saw Sharktopus and Mega Pirahna. As incredible as it sounds, they weren't enough over the top, and approached faster the limit of so bad it's bad rather than so bad it's good. Although I laughed at the scene where the giant pirahnas ate a US navy battlecruiser  - the movies needed seriously more of that and better over the top dialogue. Luckily and at the same time ironically, we were prepared for this possibility by drinking enough alcohol to prevent the brain damage these movies could cause - so I view it as a kind of exchange between different sorts of brain damage. If memory serves, Megashark vs. Giant Octopus suffered from the same problem.

We also saw R.E.D. and Alien Apocalypse during that movie evening. RED was ok, and Alien Apocalypse was actually not that bad. Whether if that is because of Bruce Campbell or some other reasons remains to be seen. Let's see what will be the next movie we'll watch.
