    I regularly DVR true classics on TCM. I recently recorded the Ingmar Bergman faith trilogy, so they do mostly stay true to their name. I'm going to DVR Miami Connection though because it is awesome and if they do get some sort of Neilsen rating off our DVRs I want to send the signal that Miami Connection is in demand.

    If they had chosen The World Is Not Enough there would have been a great tangential string. Sophie Marceau who is in TWINE was the Demi character in the French version of LOL, BUT she was also the Angelina character in the French movie that episode 11's The Tourist blatantly ripped off, Anthony Zimmer. Then again, maybe she should never ever appear directly in a HDTGM movie only in the French versions that are remade into Hollywood flops.

    I think Paul was overselling that 'badness' of View to a Kill - maybe to justify doing it on the podcast.

     

    His mocking of the trailer was weird - it was just like every other action movie trailer from the '80s.

     

    It seems like this is just an excuse to crossover with James Bonding, which is fine.

     

    But View to a Kill is a middle of the road Bond movie - there are at least five (Moonraker, Tomorrow Never Dies, Die Another Day, The World is not Enough and Quantum of Solace) that are WAY worse in my opinion.

     

    I know, this one doesn't even have Denise Richards as a nuclear physicist.

    I just watched this and I liked it more than I had expected to. It's not a bad movie, but I think that they definitely could do this movie. As a comedy, some of the jokes do work, but others just seem like odd choices (the whole thing about the father's movie); as a romance, it's quite flimsy and things develop really quickly and for almost no good reason (although I admit that Mark is a dreamboat); and as an action film things unfold in very bizarre ways.

    I think Michael Caine might be in the elite club of having both a 0% movie and a 100% movie on Rotten Tomatoes. 0% for Jaws 4, 100% for Alfie. It's almost not fair since both of those movies came out long before the internet, but I have yet to come across anyone else on RT who has been in a decent number of movies with that same distinction.

    Did you know one of fall's best romantic comedies is named after ChristianMingle.com? ChristianMingle is a love story with some serious soul. Watch the trailer and see why!

    This movie seems like it was MADE for the show.

     

    I was watching the trailer and thought "that looks like Gretchen Weiners, but naw...can't be..." holy shit! Regina George maid of honor?

     

    I like to joke that if you sign up at Christina Mingle it prepopulates your favorite movies with "The Passion of the Christ."

    I agree completely about coming to this subforum to discuss bad movies with everyone else and that Paul, Jason and June have limited ability to take on films. That said though, I think that they could make better use of FYI. Shariq did an amazing job making it and I think that maybe twice a year they they could pick out a handful of movies and for a couple of months Paul direct people to the site in the minisode to vote to do a "listeners choice" film. That would probably be a good balance. Also if this subforum was called "Bad Movie Discussion" it would probably set people's expectations a little more accurately.
