Hackers. Till the day I die…
hAcK tHe pLaNeT!!1!
They’re trashing our rights! TRASHING them!
In the same vein:
Johnny Mnemonic is unironically pretty damn good.
The pacing gets clunky in some spots, production quality is a bit off in some sections… honestly not really worse than say Escape from New York… its honestly overall pretty damn good.
This one deserves its own thread fr. Keanu Reeves worked his ass off to try and pull this together and it works in its cheesy way.
Uhm, but Hackers is not shitty.
Hacker is the best !
mess with the best
die like the rest
i love that shit.
Movie made me get into IT. I hate and love it at the same time.
Hackers is a legitimately great film.
I can’t like that movie because it was so insulting for the culture at the time. Tacky and stupid. No self respecting 90s technology person respects that movie.
Self-respect is for people with class
No self respecting 90s technology person respects that movie.
How dare you?!
Oh…wait. “self respecting”. Okay. Fair enough.
Evolution.
Is that the one with David Duchovny?
Yes and Orlando Jones
And Seann William Scott
And Julianne Moore
Dan Akroyd, too.
That is a good one.
“can we get you anything?”
“ice cream…”
“okay, what flavor?”
“it doesn’t matter… It’s for my ass”
‘Wayne, I think we’ve established that “Ca-Caw Ca-Caw” and “Tookie Tookie” don’t work.’
Ah, I’m glad I was reminded that this movie exists.
“you are so beautiful…”
incredulous stare
“to me…”
monstrous roar from the other side of the mall
Well I know what I’m watching tonight… No joke my sister and I used to watch that multiple times a week as teens
They said shitty not awesome
Underrated movie IMO.
It’s not a movie, it’s an ad for Head&Shoulders.
Haven’t you noticed how shiny and flake free our hair is?
Dude, Where’s My Car? is so much better than it had any right to be. And while the main characters are stoners, most of the humor isn’t stoner humor. Not that there’s anything wrong with stoner humor, but movies that consist entirely of stoner humor tend to drag after a while.
I will die on the hill that Kung fury is peak cinema
I’ve literally never heard a bad word uttered about Kung Fury.
Hackerman hacked into my heart.
Any movie where the protagonist is offing nazis is a great movie.
I’d agree, if the movie were half as long.
Did you mean… twice as long?
Lol. Nah, man. I got tired of laughing by about halfway through and by then their schtick was predictable.
Last Action Hero. I know the editing is pretty bad and the rhythm is a bit messed up in the last part but it’s the most meta movie ever and an homage/parody to classic action movies. Having Arnold play the main part is the cherry on top.
Mystery Men is a phenomenal send up of the superhero genre. It’s simultaneously extremely 1999 and decades ahead of its time.
The cable guy. Scary Jim Carey is scary. And the ending was visionary.
I feel this way about 23 as well. Jim Carey as a normal guy who’s absolutely losing it just hits different.
I blame the marketing for that movie not doing well. People went expecting a “wacky Jim Carrey flick” and what they got was a surreal and frightening thriller.
Eddie Murphy’s “Holy Man” suffers that bad marketing issue as well. They plastered so many ads making it out to be a loony Eddie Murphy film and the movie itself is more of an uplifting drama about believing in one’s self and not seeking external validation, with a few gags in it making fun of television shopping networks and the stupid shit people buy from them cause yeah, it’s Eddie Murphy of course they’re gonna have fun with it. But that’s only like 1/3rd of the film.
Rubber. An anthropomorphic car tire. If that doesn’t describe a masterclass in directing I don’t know what does.
The Last Starfighter is not a shitty movie. Now go back to sleep, Louis, before I tell ma about your Playboys.
The Last Starfighter, Flight of the Navigator, and Batteries Not Included: the trifecta of 80s kids scifi
Flight of the Navigator
Oh wow, this kicked up some memories
“I don’t leak, you leak.”
I might swap in Explorers as the third to complete the “kids flying spaceships” theme. But BNI was a classic too.
I’d get ‘explorers’ in there too
Wait, people think it is?
How do… YOU do?
Sucker Punch and D.E.B.S.
no, it’s not cuz I’m a lesbian!
…ok maybe it’s cuz I’m a lesbian
oh also TRON Legacy. “tHe PlOt iS sTuPiD” yeah no shit it’s TRON, the original was a glorified feature length CG animation test reel. I came here for pretty lights, cool motorcycles, Daft Punk, Jeff Bridges, and Olivia Wilde being hot, not for prestige cinema lmao
Tremors 2 is peak cinema IMHO. I only wish they had spent a little more on the CGI, or replaced it all with practical effects.
Killer Klowns From Outer Space needs no defending. It’s just a terrible great time.
It’s worth it for the theme alone!
What are you gonna do, knock my block off?
Absolutely masterful movie! Soundtrack is (big)tops too!!!
Big Trouble in Little China
Treasure Planet. There’s weird plot choices, but I loved the mixed animation, the music, the characters.
An actually bad but amazing movie would be Miami Connection. Karate rock band sings about friendship fights motorcycle drug ninjas. Fuck yeah bro.

I never liked those quilting bees or the bingo parlours. I wanted to live life to the extreme.

The sound track and voice acting punched well above the movie’s aesthetics.
Void, yes; absolute perfection.
