That's a manifestation of the common "This Didn't Suck!" Syndrome. Same thing happens when you go back and watch old TMNT.

Hey, those movies were pretty damn good... well, the first one was good, the second one was lacking, and the third was just birds.

What's "This didn't suck!" syndrome?

The new TMNT cartoon series looks much better than the old "Hero Turtles" one . Anyone ever see the Cadillacs and Dinosaurs cartoon that was awesome, and cancelled after one short run. Why does that happen so often to cool shows? The Battletech cartoon series was good too and was pretty ambitious for a kids' series. Oh yeah this is a sick movie thread.

Battlefield Earth did actually make me feel sick. Having to sit through the BRITS awards presented by Sam Fox and Mick Fleetwood did seriously make me sick though. I felt so ill after that show. I think it had something to do with psychological abuse affecting my physical being. Like when you get hurt in the Matrix and you bleed in reality.

I didn't do a very good job of staying on topic there did I.

Ok. "Bad Taste". The prequel to Lord of the Rings. There you go.

To switch lanes here, how about movies that weren't what you would typically think of as an awesome movie, but they just rocked beyond belief? For example, Transformers: The Movie, or The Never-Ending Story, etc. Movie that, if you rewatch them decades down the line, you wonder whatever you were thinking when you first saw and liked them.

Transformers the Movie Will NEVER grow old,....
There are only ever 3 times a Man can cry,
1-When your dog/mum/insert loved one dies
2- When your firs child is born (trust me its boring the 22nd time round)
3- When the big OP himself turns grey and his head rolls over "sniff"

[22nd?!?!?!] no way 2nd, I wouldnt have the energy patience or wallet to sustain 22 mini-spawn of moi.

[Turambar]

2- When your firs child is born (trust me its boring the 22nd time round)

22nd time around? somebody's busy

well, somebody's busy once every 9 months over 22 9-month intervals

Meh, The wife would be slacker than a drive through operator downstairs after the first twelve. <shudder>the thought of it</shudder>

Ken Park

Congradulations mister j, you've just earned an honorable mention to my future therapist on the mental-image factor alone.

Transformers : The Movie still ****ing rocks now.

[Sandwich]

Yeah, this is true, as long as one hasn't grown beyond cartoons in general.

[Sandwich]

I'm rewatching Transformers The Movie now, and I just got stunned. Weird Al's Dare to be Stupid is one of the songs in the soundtrack!!

[Flipside]

Hehehe, I watched 'Water' again last night, With Micheal Caine, Leonard Rossiter and Billy Connolly. Now there was a comedy that never got the recognition it deserved

[IPAndrews]

I had a problem with the transformer that was supposed to be a cassette player. Mainly that when transformed into said mode the cassette player was as big as Optimus Prime's truck.

[Flipside]

It was made in the 80's, that's the correct size

[aceofspades]

Is is just me or do most people associate the movie title "Water" with Deepa Mehta's movie?
