    Commando (1985)

    I agree. This sort of goes in the Crank/Roadhouse camp as fun insanity. You also might want to get screenwriter and current comics scribe Jeph Loeb to comment.

    Transformers: Dark of the Moon

    I think all of the Transformers movies are worthy, though they are also pretty painful to watch as well.

    Dog City: The Movie

    Weird. I remember the cartoon and it was pretty good. This just seems weird. Might be too repetitive for a HDTGM though.

    Exit Wounds (2001)

    I think the thing that makes me want to hear this one is the fact that The very first scene is Steven Seagal rescuing the president from terrorists. What an insane movie.

    Home Alone 4

    That does sound bad, but it seems pretty par for the course in direct to DVD type movies. But those kind usually aren't right for the show, in my opinion.

    WATCHMEN

    I don't hate the Watchmen movie as much as you, clearly, but I don't think it's terribly good either. I actually think there are some good points to it, including a rather strong opening montage. Still, I don't think it really belongs on this show. It seems a lot of the complaints you have, while valid, are rather subtle and really HDTGM is more about really out there in their badness. If anything, the problems in this movie seem to come from toning down or misinterpreting source material. Also, there are a lot of people who like this and while that goes for many movies that have been on the show, this seems more like a film up for debate than a "let's all rag on this one."

    KISS Meets the Phantom of the Park (1978)

    Is it readily available? I'd like to see this too.

    Footloose Remake

    Frankly, I think this one doesn't really work. From what I hear, the film isn't great, but it isn't nearly as bad as it should have been. The original Footloose might actually be better, not because it's bad, but sort of for the same reasons Roadhouse might make it on. It's kind of nutty.

    Any post-Hitch Kevin James movie

    Personally, I don't think his movies should be left alone. I'm sure he's a nice guy, but nice guys can make awful movies. Trust me, I know lots of nice people I would let near a video camera. That said, I think as bad as those movies are, a comedy has to be not just bad but also confounding and bizarre. With Kevin's filmography, it feels simply incompetent.

    Good news. This has happened!

    Any movie with a line dance.

    Uh... so... what?

    I'm Still Here

    Well, I wouldn't call it a documentary...

    Human Highway (1982)

    I've heard of this and it does sound bonkers. I hear it's not good, but while it does seem fascinating (especially as a DEVO fan) I'm not 100 per cent certain that it is a good candidate since it is satirical. I think failed satire can have a place, but I'm not sure with this one. Has anyone seen this one?

    Dragonball Evolution (2009)

    I didn't see it but I completely dread it. I'm actually a Dragonball fan (more the original series than the more popular Dragonball Z) and I could easily tell that the people who made it didnt understand the appeal of the original and did not care. The other issue is the sadness of seeing James Marsters in a really bad movie. Shame.

    Hellbound

    At first I just assumed people wanted to see any Chuck Norris movie, but this does look like a special kind of crazy. Also, 1994? Why do I get the feeling it was made 6 years prior?

    Operation: Endgame (2010)

    I didn't think it was a great movie, but I also didn't think it was that bad. It was just that it was a run of the mill, forgettable Direct-to-video Tarantino-inspired film (dime a dozen for, like, the last 20 years). The twists don't really add up either. It's a shame that so much talent is wasted, but I actually think an all-comedian action thriller is kind of a neat idea. Just a rather weak film with great casting (and if memory serves, most of the cast seem to be trying. I do like the idea of applying Zack Galifianakis' persona as a villain). Still, there is that weird element that it somehow ties into the inauguration of Barack Obama. OK, I've sort of turned around on this, but I think you need to get a writer and some cast members in for this one. The origin sounds much more interesting than the film itself. Any other thoughts? Am I way too generous on this one?

    Atlas Shrugged (2011)

    Yeah, word has it it's pretty insanely bad and with a recent sequel, hypocritical. Didn't the free market decide that they didn't want to watch?

    The Rocky Horror Picture Show

    I've never been a fan, but I don't this one works. I think there are enough arguments in the films' favour and supporters where it doesn't really belong on a show like this. Besides, it really is supposed to be ridiculous so what would you have to say? It really accomplishes what it wants to do and it doesn't really fit the criteria for this kind of thing. I don't like it, but it doesn't fit under the banner of mediocre and while HDTGM mock films that are great but crazy, the best kind of crazy comes from something beneath the film or a certain bizarre logic (or flawed logic). This film doesn't have the right kind.

    Eragon (2006)

    It's pretty nutsy bad. I agree that this would be a good one.
  20. Hmmm.... I'm not sure that this counts as a song, but I kind of like it. I hope you get pants!

    Episode 161 — Highly Illogical

    Seriously? I love all these Catchphrase posters!

    Your wish is granted!

    Men in Black II (2002)

    Interesting choice, but I think it's more blah bad than How Did This Get Made bad. Rebuttal?

    Aaron-Freaking-Singer - It's Time to Plug

    For real and for trues.

    What's the episode where...?

    I'm not 100% but I think it's a late 2012 episode that tied into the apocalypse. It wasn't the Christmas one, because I'm pretty sure there's never been a Ducca/Wompler episode. There should be though.
