Top 5 movies for you personnally that they have not done yet
Amy the Gorilla replied to Snake's topic in How Did This Get Made?
Would "The Tingler" (1959) count as a bad movie? I know it's cheesy (You can see the strings on the monster puppet) with a somewhat confusing plot. But I wouldn't really call it "Bad." The LSD trip scene with Vincent Price screaming "THE WALLS! THE WALLS!" and trying to jump out a window is amazing. -
Yeah, I agree with these guys. Lost Boys is a little bit before my time, and severely dated, but is otherwise a great film.

Probably to cover the bad CG/Greenscreen. -

This reminded me how much I loved their song "Never Ever" when I was in middle school, and decided to look up the song on youtube (Since Spotify didn't have it for some fucking reason) and saw that the video had two different versions, a UK version and a US version. While the UK version was needlessly dramatic, especially near the end, it still kept with the theme of the song (A bad breakup) but the US version... I can't even begin to describe it. Nonsensical is a good word I think. To be fair, it was made at a time when Music videos were going through a weird phase and started doing the thing movies are currently going through in the US. The louder, flashier, and more expensive they were, the better, plot be damned. I feel like this is something only fans of HDTGM can appreciate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPXqkjpXZ_k It's like they decided to burst into song in the middle of "The Purge" or something. -
The reason, for the most part, that they tend to be bad/so-so is that they like to stick too close to the book when making the adaptation. What King writes works for books, not so much for screen. It's best to just use the book as a frame work. Also this movie seemed to always be on tv during a time when I was doing some major dieting/weight loss. very strange.

I haven't seen any of them. Does he at least attempt some kind of altering of his accent? I'm guessing no. I could go on for a while about the varieties of Southern accents, and really bad ones.

The Happening - (it's never happening, but talk about it if you want)
Amy the Gorilla replied to temjeito's topic in Bad Movie Recommendations
Yourmoviesucks.org has a really great snarky and dry review of "The Happening" (It's on youtube too) too. Same with "After Earth." He has the same aggressive attitude toward M. Night as the RedLetterMedia guys have toward George Lucas. -

As a kid, I'd only ever known him as Mr. Miyagi, and it confused me as a kid once when I saw him in something not Karate kid and not the old wise Japanese man stereotype. When I asked my mom about why he didn't have an accent she was like "Yeah, duh he's American." -
I feel like this is the appropriate place to post this, since it involves the group picture from the Teen Witch episode. You've probably heard of the "Deep Dream" A.I. thing (They even ran a scene from Fear and loathing in Las Vegas through it...trippy) anyway, there's a new algorithm that combines pictures with a "Theme" so you can make said picture look like a Van Gogh painting if you chose "Starry night" as your theme...anyway. So I there's a website called "Deep Art" (http://deepart.io/)that does that (Though it takes a few days due to traffic) and I though it would be fun to run a HDTGM group picture through it with the Mondo "Sucker Punch" movie poster (This one: https://deepart-io.s...CyGEngovDmW.jpg) and this was the result: It turned out pretty creepy, but in kind of an interesting way I think?

I literally just queued up the opening scene (at around the 4:50 mark) and the Dialogue goes like this: Lenny: "John! We gotta go meet the doc." *goes unheard* Lenny: "John! It's 4:30 docs gonna be here soon." John: "Come on fellas, Doctor Thomas is on her way up." Angela: "Aunt Martha's coming?" Peter: "Is Ricky coming too?" John: " Nah. I'm afraid he's spending the weekend with his father." -

There are two types of kids, ones who grow up and look almost exactly the same, and ones that look almost completely different. Things can go wrong at some point in the growing up process with both of them, but it's a fair bet to say that people that were cute kids and grew up to look exactly the same, are going to transition fairly well. (Emma Watson, Leo, ScarJo, Jennifer Love, etc.) The ones that look completely different are the gambles that can go either way. Matthew Lewis a.k.a. Neville Longbottom is an often used example because he went from an adorable hamster child to what he is now, and if you hadn't seen him grow up in the HP movies, you probably wouldn't have guessed that was him. -
Bad movies, that should be remade because the potential is there.
Amy the Gorilla replied to WTF?MichaelDorn's topic in How Did This Get Made?
A obscure movie called "Six String Samurai" absolutely. As far as I know the movie, in its entirety, is on youtube. It's the very definition of awful with potential. I've also heard that it was one of the inspirations for the Fallout games (There's a town called Fallout in the movie IIRC) The thing about the movie is that it's suppose to be an allegory for the music industry (or some of it) at the time, with the whole "This is real music, not like the crap these kids are into" argument. -

Never saw that movie. But I'm not surprised that's already a thing. -
I actually just read an article about how bad this movie was not too long ago. I haven't seen it since it came out on dvd... Maybe I should watch it again??? http://io9.gizmodo.c...-rem-1763461375 From what I remember, it felt like they were trying to make her into the same low talking, brooding, master/expert who knows all who is forced to suffer fools character trope that people write for men, except that trope was tired long before that movie was made.

Episode 131.5 - Minisode 131.5
Amy the Gorilla replied to JulyDiaz's topic in How Did This Get Made?
All this talk about outrageous claims makes me want to write an 80's style high school comedy about a pair of geeky high school kids who keep getting bullied by the jock and his group of friends, so they seek out the weird guy who lives in a van in the mall parking lot who makes outrageous claims about his fighting ability to either train them or hire him to beat up the bullies for them. Hilarity insues. -

More like #definitelynotpancakebutt Also, with the lettering of that pinball machine mirrored nem-x looks like some kind of medication, and the context you keep putting it in makes me think it's erectile dysfunction. -

The first thing that pops into my head is at the end of Snowpiercer. (Spoilers ahead. It's on Netflix if you haven't seen it.) I personally love the movie, some people find it utterly ridiculous, but I digress. The part at the end,when Chris Evans' character is giving this tear filled, emotional monologue about how hard it was in the back of the train, and the fact that they had to resort to cannibalism. For some reason when he utters "I know that babies taste best." Something about it just makes me laugh. I'm not sure if it's because of the terrible way he delivers such an awful statement, or I'm just a horrible monster. edit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufzNMqqKCi8 -

Amy the Gorilla replied to JulyDiaz's topic in How Did This Get Made?
I saw that movie in the theater. As a Texan the part where they say Texans are jumping the Mexican border had the whole theater here in an uproar of laughter. (as I'm assuming happened in every Texas showing) Also I had a silly thing happen while watching it. The theater was pretty full, and I was seated near the back of the theater with a couple of empty seats to my right. somewhere in the last 1/3 of the movie this pair of guys run in the theater and sit in the seats next to me. the one right next to me turns to me and says "So what did I miss?" My reaction: For what felt like 10 minutes the only words that were coming to me were "You smell really good." Which I didn't actually say (Thank God). It took the person I was with asking them "What?" for me to snap out of it and say "Dude, the movie's almost over." They both laughed and apologized and ran out. (To be fair I was 19 and very awkward when that happened) -
