Man with the Screaming Brain

[Man with the Screaming Brain]

Sorry, but the answer to "How Did This Get Made?" is the same in all movies where Bruce Campbell is the lead.

 

Bruce. Goddamned. Campbell.

[FDR: American Badass! (2012)]

Also featuring Ahmed Best as a butler who rants against racist stereotypes. Oh yeah, that's right.Jar Jar Binks ranting against the portrayal of racist stereotypes.

[Episode 73 — Congo]

 

Speech-bubble orrify? Elasto-Lips? A Head?

 

Penis.

[Highlander II: The Quickening (1991)]

Whoops, double post.

[Highlander II: The Quickening (1991)]

And shits all over a promising film franchise, you forgot that part.

 

Also, the original VHS box made the claim that Highlander 2 "is the smartest movie since Blade Runner".

 

:mellow: :mellow:

[Highlander II: The Quickening (1991)]

I'm a pretty tolerant fellow, but this movie just took it entirely too far with it's same-sex intergalactic union agenda. It's Adam and EVE, not Adam and Gleepglorp!

 

Don't you mean Adam and Eve, not Adam and Ramirez?

[Episode 72.5 — Minisode 72.5]

"STOP EATING MY SESAME SEED CAKE."

 

Hands up, who can't wait to hear Jason say this? Because it's going to happen. It has to.

[Highlander II: The Quickening (1991)]

but I can't remember for the life of me how they explained him coming back.

 

Because they were space married. Also, I'd assume that as Kurgan absorbed Ramirez's essence, then Macleod absorbed everything that Kurgan had, and somehow via the energy released during the second quickening of the movie, and combined with the space marriage, Macleod accidentally restored him to life as he last saw him.

 

Now, that would be the answer if they had a, y'know, writer.

[Highlander II: The Quickening (1991)]

Oh god, nothing in that trailer even looks appealing. I can only imagine what people who were fans of the first one thought when they saw that.

 

Also, MacLeod and Ramirez are totally space-married.

[Episode 72.5 — Minisode 72.5]

technically spiderman 3 tho

 

Ohhh right. I blocked Spiderman 3 from my memory, so that's my bad.

[Episode 72.5 — Minisode 72.5]

Gorillas falling into lava flows!

 

Nooo, gorillas jumping into lava flows. And this is not only the first Michael Crichton HDTGM, but it's also the first BRUCE GODDAMNED CAMPBELLmovie!!!! (And yes, you are legally required to refer to him only as such, boldface type and all.)

 

Oh and if you haven't seen Doug Walker's Nostalgia Critic take on Congo, you really need to just for the "Tickle Me Amy" segments.

[Highlander II: The Quickening (1991)]

Oh I can think of a few ways that Highlander 2 could've been worse. No Michael Ironside would've made it a lot worse. He's one of those actors who no matter how shitty the rest of the movie is, he's always a ton of fun to watch.

 

Oh, and of course, one other thing I forgot to point out is how one of Ironside's henchmen points out the GINORMOUS FUCKING PLOT HOLE and gets slapped in the chops for it.

[Highlander II: The Quickening (1991)]

Oh, and then there's the European ending which has Connor and....redheaded woman whose name I can't be arsed to remember...go all transparent to return to Zeist, which leads to one of the biggest questions possible:

 

WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO GO BACK THERE?! The planet looks like a shithole!

[Highlander II: The Quickening (1991)]

Oh God, Highlander 2, the very epitome of unnecessary sequels. Where to begin? The transition from fantasy to cyberpunk dystopia, the villains plan that makes no fucking sense, all the Blade Runner ripoff scenery, Michael Ironside and John C McGinley chewing on the scenery all movie...It's such a trainwreck and should have been a sign early on to not make any future Highlander films, and yet they just kept going after that.

 

And then the aliens retcon. Oh Jesus fuck the aliens retcon....

[Cool World (1992)]

Oh god, half of me wants to see this done, the other half is still suffering PTSD flashbacks from Toys and doesn't want any more of those.

[Episode 59.5 — Minisode 59.5]

Yeah, sorry Paul, but considering Uwe Boll's body of work, this is hardly the worst Video Game adaptation of all time.

 

And Raul Julia is awesome in this movie. You can tell he was having a fucking blast making one last movie for his kids. Just keep in mind that this is also not even close to being the worst Raul Julia film of all time. (*cough*overdrawnatthememorybank*cough*)

[End of Days (1999)]

I think this one should happen just based on the scene where Arnold shouts "You're a fucking choirboy compared to me!" AT THE DEVIL. Although Gabriel Byrne's expression at that delivery is fucking priceless.

[Street Fighter (1994)]

Wish Granted, I'd say.

[Equilibrium (2002)]

Equilibrium is awesome simply because it carries on a proud tradition of Sean Bean dying horribly in films.

[Regarding Xmas Movie Suggestions]

I think between MST3K, Cinematic Titanic, and others, SCCTM has been done to death.

[Regarding Xmas Movie Suggestions]

I dunno, Santa Clause 3 doesn't have soul destroying moments like SC:TM does.

[x-mas movies]

You know, Lethal Weapon 1 is a Christmas movie, as is Die-Hard 2: Die Harder.

 

So is Die Hard 1.

[Regarding Xmas Movie Suggestions]

To be honest, I haven't watched it in years, but I remember when I watched this as a kid, I found the whole movie insanely disturbing. Kids sobbing when their toys fall apart, parents screaming when kids float away, and Lithgow presumably dying in the cold vacuum of space.

[Regarding Xmas Movie Suggestions]

 

That is all.

[Episode 49 — Cobra: LIVE!]

THEY DIDNT EVEN MENTION HE HAS A MATCH IN HIS MOUTH THE ENTIRE FREAKIN FILM WHY SLY WHY

 

So that he could set that one guy on fire, duh.

 

Speaking of which, that was a steel mill at the end?? I just figured it was a factory that made nothing but FIRE.
