  1. Bruce Willis is really going the extra mile with his one-lines in this one (spoilers):

    I love this movie no matter what anyone says. It's just so campy and ridiculous and idiotic and trying too hard, how can you not love it.

     

     

    I have to admit, the one TRUE honest non ironic laugh that I got out of this movie was during that fight scene when Andie MacDowell shot Bruce Willis in the arm on accident.


  2. I'm going to have to disagree with this film's inclusion. "Hudson Hawk" is one of those films whose status as a great classic of bad cinema is set in stone, with no dissent allowed...and it's really not that bad. By all accounts, Willis was sort of a dick at the time, and any time you didn't see his face in shot it was definitely a double doing his work for him; but it's a surprisingly funny and odd comedy with tons of scenery-chewing performances from a bunch of great actors.

     

    It's not perfect, for sure, but it's a million miles away from most of the stuff featured on HDTGM? Approach it just as any other film, not as "oh my god, we're going to watch this mega-flop of a movie" and I reckon quite a few of you will be pleasantly surprised.

     

    You are wrong. Very insanely wrong.This movie felt like I was watching a reverse Old Dogs... like it was originally meant to be a kids movie, and some exec goes "Wait a sec, kids don't know who the fuck Bruce Willis is... but adults love him! Make this R rated!" There is really no reason for this movie to BE R rated aside from some awkward over the top pseudo violence and all the weird moments of forced adult humor.

     

    Not to mention the wildly awful dialog and forced overacting to compensate for it.

    If ever there was a reason for the HDTGM crew to bring back the WTF Moment segment, this movie is chock full of them. Its like if Old Dogs and Pluto Nash adopted Barb Wire and Toy's illegitimate bastard child and raised it as its own.

  3. I just watched this on Netflix instant, and holy fucknuggets is this movie AWFUL.

     

    Francis Ford Coppola wrote, produced, and directed this film starring Pete Holmes and Elle Fanning. The dialog in this movie is fucking psychotic. The plot is beyond confusing, and entirely pointless. The acting is below negative. But then, with the writing the way it is, I imagine the actors could only do so much.

     

    This film was inspired by a bad dream Coppola had, where he woke up and couldn't fall back to sleep to finish the dream. That plays a big big part in the film. This is a movie about a guy who keeps getting rudely awakened from his sleep.

  4. You guys talked a lot about the CGI baby and why they used a CGI baby. Well, here's a little insight:

    Ever wonder, "Hey, why was the spawn of Twilight lovers Bella and Edward such a hideous CG monster troll?" Well, guess what? It could have been much, much worse. Behold the animatronic monster so hideous it scared the cast of Twilight Breaking Dawn Part 2, and had to be cut from the film.

     

    Watch director Bill Condon and the rest of the cast shudder at the mere mention of this monstrosity's name: Chuckesmee (a combination of Chucky and Rensemee).
