    Under The Rainbow (1981)

    Since the gang needs something to cover a 1981 film, I'm bringing this up with Chevy Chase and Carrie Fisher about the fictional making of The Wizard of Oz.

    Episode 144 - Stealth

    The forum title is incorrectly listed as episode 114 when it should be episode 144.

    Stealth (2005)

    New episode is up in case everyone forgot.

    Stealth (2005)

    How has Stealth from 2005 not been covered yet? It was made by Rob Cohen, who had done The Fast and the Furious and xXx, and it shamelessly borrows elements from the likes of Top Gun (fighter pilots), Short Circuit (struck by lightning) and 2001: A Space Odyssey (intelligent robotic being) to not that much success. Not only did it bomb big time at the box office, it brought down Josh Lucas's leading man career and almost brought Jamie Foxx and Jessica Biel's fame to new lows. Please see this!

    Episode 143.5 - Minisode 143.5

    It might've been his first top-billed part after gaining attention for his appearances in A Beautiful Mind, Sweet Home Alabama and Hulk. But after this bombed, came Glory Road which did okay, and later Poseidon which equally flopped hard. The last mainstream projects he was in were both The Lincoln Lawyer and J. Edgar from 2011. As of now, you can hear Lucas doing voiceovers for Home Depot commercials!

    Episode 143.5 - Minisode 143.5

    Another Rob Cohen classic! Now if only the gang could continue that field with Daylight, The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor and Alex Cross. Also, Stealth was one of the first topics I posted on the recommendation section and now that it is finally taking place, relive the glory where Jamie Foxx made his first misstep after winning the Oscar for "Ray", Jessica Biel trying and failing to get a good role, and Josh Lucas' career was forever doomed with the 1-2 punch of this and "Poseidon" the next year.

    The Fog (2005)

    This is the worst of the John Carpenter remakes brought to you from the director of such classics as Blank Check and Stigmata. Trade in Tom Atkins for Tom Welling, Adrienne Barbeau for Selma Blair and Jamie Lee Curtis for Maggie Grace, and you get one of the most pointless horror remakes of all time with emotionless acting, atrocious visual effects and zero scares.

    Dirty Love (2005)

    Featuring Carmen Electra acting like a black person, only that she really isn't.

    Crimes of Passion (1984)

    Kathleen Turner at the peak of her hotness, Anthony Perkins in between Psycho sequels, what more could you ask?
  14. SlidePocket

    Baby Geniuses (1999)

    How is this not discussed enough? This caused Kathleen Turner's movie career to be sealed shut for good although there were a few that marked the beginning of the end before that (V.I. Warshawski, Undercover Blues, Moonlight and Valentino, A Simple Wish). And it somehow spawned a franchise!

    Exit to Eden (1994)

    I don't know if there was a forum for this one, but the gang has got to look at Exit to Eden from 1994! It's got Rosie O'Donnell wearing an S&M leather outfit, Dana Delany as a dominatrix, was directed by Garry Marshall, and it was based on an Anne Rice novel! This film turned out to be so bad, that Rice herself immediately disowned the finished product, saying that the addition of O'Donnell and Dan Aykroyd's characters was nothing like the book that she wrote.

    The Ugly Truth

    With Gods of Egypt recently being talked about, let's bring this other Gerard Butler abomination back to the forefront! Not to mention, we need a Katherine Heigl film being discussed.

    Men in Black II (2002)

    Don't forget Johnny Knoxville as LFB's lackey with two alien heads!
  18. This one is the most obscure film Madonna ever did, a crime comedy set in the late 20s-early 30s based on four short stories written by Damon Runyon. In addition to Madonna, it's got a stacked cast that includes Matt Dillon, Jennifer Grey, Randy Quaid, Rutger Hauer, Julie Hagerty and Esai Morales among many others. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qok1dBlphVI

    Practical Magic (1998)

    Gotta bring this strange 1998 fantasy comedy back up to the masses. Directed by Griffin Dunne of An American Werewolf in London and After Hours fame.

    Exodus: Gods and Kings (2014)

    Now that Gods of Egypt has just been covered, let's bring this back up that is equally bad in regards to whitewashing among many other crimes!

    Episode 142.5 - Minisode 142.5

    Not to mention The Ugly Truth, Gamer, Timeline, Playing for Keeps, Law Abiding Citizen, London Has Fallen or PS I Love You among a couple.

    The Astronaut's Wife (1999)

    This was regarded as the worst thing Johnny Depp ever did until The Tourist, then The Lone Ranger, then Transcendence, then Mortdecai, then Alice Through the Looking Glass, you get the rest.

    Diabolique (1996)

    If you thought 1998's The Avengers ruined Jeremiah S. Chechik's directing career on film, here's the one that he made two years earlier that marked the turning point for him. It's a remake of a classic 1955 French thriller where a man is presumed murdered by his wife and mistress, only for his body to disappear and the women become suspects of the crime. It is Diabolique from 1996, with Sharon Stone, Isabelle Adjani, Chazz Palminteri and Kathy Bates. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QyQZHWC83GA
