    The Internship

    Now there's something everyone can agree on. Poor Aasif.

    Rocky Balboa (2006)

    It's very flawed, but I rather liked it, and thought it was an enjoyable film that was less ridiculous than part 4 and less unpleasant than part 5.

    Dunston Checks In

    Not a chimpanzee, orangutan. I like them better than chimps.

    Gattaca

    Yeah, I think it's pretty fantastic. It's nice to get a smart sci-fi movie that doesn't have to be couched in action or horror and just about it's effect on humanity. There's a slight thriller element, but it's really more of a drama and a well done one at that.

    The Scarlet Letter (1995)

    The rape scene was kind of crazy and corny enough that it's barely offensive (certainly not all that harrowing), but that first sex scene is where your money nuts are.

    A Serbian Film (2010)

    First problem: they got that movie ALL backwards.

    The Internship

    I am kind of morbidly curious about the movie. I don't know if it is HDTGM material or not, but it's hard not to be fascinated by a movie that is based around product placement. That said, there's potential humour in a story about dinosaurs trying to catch up with modern day stuff, but the movie looks abyssmal. Also, if you are going to tell that story, maybe you shouldn't have actors who, despite not being young, are too young to be guys who DON'T KNOW WHAT THE INTERNET IS! If the movie seemed weirder about it and less generic, that would be one thing, but it's genericness makes the whole thing seem wrong-headed.

    A Sound of Thunder (2005)

    I remember hearing about how bad this movie was, but the question is this: is it ENTERTAININGLY bad. Has anyone scene this to say what would make it fun to talk about. Oh, and Kingsley doesn't surprise me, Basically, he approaches acting like a job and despite his great skill and Sir Title, he'll star in just about anything if you can pay his fee. Michael Caine sort of works the same way. Got to respect that really: bring the best you can to any project... even if it is garbage.

    Demolition Man

    Anyway, yeah, I think this is a really fun, dumb movie! And I just realized that Schneider and Stallone was not just a one time thing. They really need to get back together.

    The Internship

    That wasn't really the point of the joke, though. The point of the joke is the idea of some asshole calling celebrities dicks and assholes and directing at someone who in no way deserves it. They didn't call her an asshole because she is black or that they believed she was a cunt, they tweeted that because she's a sweet talented girl in a world where everyone is scrutinized and judged. If it was anyone else, the joke doesn't really work, it's just ugly and what a lot of live-tweeters do. But the point is offhandedly saying something completely ugly about celebrity is pretty par for the course for a lot of live-tweeters and there's humour in showing just how ugly that is by directing it at someone no right thinking person would EVER say that about: a sweet little 6 year old who did a fantastic job acting in a movie. EDIT: Also the Onion AV Club which reviews movies is a largely different entity than the Onion itself

    Beyond the Ring

    They made it really hard to read the title in that trailer.

    Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever (2002)

    Here's the trailer to the infamous film http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=46eLnuYSyNI

    Return To Sleepaway Camp

    Yeah, we should merge 'em. EDIT: Thank you.

    Double Team (1997)

    I didn't trailer this. It really does a lot of the work in selling the madness.

    A Serbian Film (2010)

    Sorry, I meant to say I certainly WOULDN'T. Typo. Man, people who didn't figure that out must have thought I was nuts. And yeah, all are very hard to watch,

    Clue

    Yeah, I like Clue, though it has flaws, but the tone is quite consisent: an old fashioned murder story with humour. It doesn't shift WILDLY and I would hardly call the off screen murders brutal by any stretch.

    Dreamcatcher (2003)

    I haven't seen this movie, so I'm going to take it on faith you don't have Tourette's.

    KISS Meets the Phantom of the Park (1978)

    "I WILL DESTROY YOU!"

    Smokin' Aces (2006)

    To be fair, that's the joke. It's not like it was a weird crazy decision. Could make for a good Crank-type episode. Anyone else scene the movie to confirm of deny?

    The Cannonball Run (1981)

    I haven't seen it, but it does look like a mix of the best and the worse of the 70's, wrapped up in one movie. I need to watch this sometime.

    I Am Sam (2001)

    Too be fair MANY directors, good and bad, have started off with Music videos.
