I saw this film when I was 8 because it was rated PG, and I remember really liking it, so now I got it on DVD. But can I tell this one will be terrible once I rewatch it again when I get the chance. Mission to Mars also notably came out the same time as Red Planet, with the former eking out a tiny profit while the latter bombed badly, which I assume mostly people had already seen something similar, and that was M2M. It also marked a downward slide for Brian De Palma, as after this, The Black Dahlia came out several years later and things were never the same.

Sorry but it's definitely not going to happen.

It's finally happening next episode!

Zardoz officially marks the oldest film the gang has covered, as it came out in 1974! The previous record was Xanadu from 1980. It also marks Sean Connery's long-overdue debut on the show with hopefully some more to come (The Avengers '98, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Highlander 2).

Married architect Richard Gere cheats on wife Sharon Stone with mistress Lolita Davidovich, which eventually leads him to get killed in a car accident off the intersection but before he dies, this life flashes back before his very eyes. This film hampered Mark Rydell's directing career after doing notable features before that (On Golden Pond, The Rose, Cinderella Liberty) and won Sharon Stone her very first Razzie for Worst Actress along with "The Specialist" the very same year.

This film helped marked the end of Phoebe Cates's career where following 1994's Princess Caraboo, retired from acting to become a full-time mother with Kevin Kline.
-
This film also marks the beginning of the end of John Landis's career where after Oscar, we would later get Beverly Hills Cop III, The Stupids and Blues Brothers 2000.
-
That film was actually well received as it was nominated for multiple Emmys and Golden Globes, so I don't think that'd be worthy in a "Liz and Dick" or "Sharknado"-level discussion.
-
Ishtar also sunk Elaine May's directing career, where other than writing credits for The Birdcage and Primary Colors, she would never helm another movie again after this film's failure.
-
Keanu himself didn't want to do this film because a friend of his forged his signature on a contract, and he eventually bashed it immediately after it came out.

Stallone makes his record 7th appearance on the show thanks to Tango and Cash, while Kurt Russell makes his long overdue debut on HDTGM with this film as well!

It's finally being done next episode!

This film and Stealth tried so hard to make Josh Lucas a Hollywood leading man, but after those two completely bombed, we haven't heard much from him since!
-
I bet the Xanadu episode will be back on the show's regular Tuesday time.
-
Sorry man, definitely not going to happen. But you should check out another John/Olivia pairing, "Two of a Kind" from 1983, because that one is much more crazier.
-
From the writer/director of Daredevil and Ghost Rider, the film ends with the main cast doing a dance sequence. Oddly enough, Anjelica Huston was the only one who's not in the sequence, meaning she pretty much knew that this film would not turn out well.
-
This movie and Bucky Larson: Born to Be a Star, are the only two films produced by Happy Madison to maintain a 0% on Rotten Tomatoes, meaning they have no redeeming qualities, and got worse ratings than The Master of Disguise and Jack and Jill respectively!

It happened for real, you got to look on what was going on during the making of Cyborg.

Minisode's gotta have to be delayed until Monday just to give everyone the heads up.

How has this one not brought up often on the forums? Bill Murray, Rodney Dangerfield and Michael O'Keefe all said no on coming back to this one, and Ted Knight had died before production started. Brought in similar substitutes (Dan Aykroyd, Jackie Mason, Jonathan Silverman and Robert Stack) to play their roles respectively. Only Chevy Chase managed to reprise his role, and even he knew this movie was not going to turn out well based on behind the scenes stories I read about it. And just for the record, "Nobody's Fool" by Kenny Loggins was the only good thing to come out of this dreck.
-
This movie is clearly a poor man's Single White Female, made almost 20 years too late.
-
Has this film ever been announced for a US theatrical release?
-
Well, he did get good marks early on with The Power of One, Backbeat, and Blood and Wine. After Blade's success, we could've expect much more from Dorff but after that, those films I mentioned above (though I heard good things about his work in Sofia Coppola's Somewhere) and electric cigarette commercials.
-
This film, along with Deuces Wild, Cold Creek Manor, Alone in the Dark and Bucky Larson marks a completely low point in the otherwise uneven career of Stephen Dorff.
