Do Not Sell My Personal Information

Personally, I think the best "so bad it's good" movie is Face/Off. It's simultaneously the dumbest movie you'll ever see and one of the greatest action movies of all time. You get two insane actors in Cage and Travolta and absolutely no one even attempting to rein them in.

I did completely forget about Face/Off! Also, “Castor Troy” is a fucking phenomenal name!

Just remembered Commando featuring Arnold and some guy with an Australian accent — who is fat, loves knives, wears cut-off mesh shirts and can miraculously go toe to toe with John Matrix (another great name).

And a Freddy Mercury mustache with leather hot pants.

"I don't need the girl, John! I don't need the girl!"

Yeah... we already figured out that part.
 
"Remember when I promised to kill you last (to Sally). I lied."

"Your neck is like butter."

Lines I will always remember. That shopping scene in the gun store gave my adolescent self wood. Kickass scene for a movie like that.

I love that movie so much. It's the most John Woo movie you'll ever see (Doves, Twin guns, slow motion action sets).

Then you also have that creepy hand brush thing that John Travolta does his on wife and daughter's face.
 
Because this thread is now about bad movies, I have two. Ironically, they both have double in their names.

Double Impact, where JCVD plays twins, and Double Team, where JCVD and Rodman both put on the worst performances ever on film.
 
Another great one is Karate Kid III. It is disappointing, because The Karate Kid is a phenomenal 80’s flick, but II & III sick something fierce.

Terry Silver and “Quick Silver” method are still being implemented into Cobra Kai dojos across the Valley.

1. Man can’t stand, he can’t fight
2. Man can’t breath, he can’t fight
3. Man can’t see, he can’t fight

Gotta love a movie that opens with infanticide into a car / truck / helicopter / airplane chase.

One of my favorite lines from How Did This Get Made is when Mantzoukas says, "This movie starts out with a child getting murdered with a sniper rifle...and only gets better!"

Last Action Hero is another amazing bad movie, although I'm not sure if it counts as bad since it's a parody and thus intentionally ridiculous.

Tell that to Count Dooku.

He doesn't need eyes to kill Jedi.

The Suicide Squad

Apparently the key to making a good DC movie was to just give James Gunn a shitload of money and let him do whatever the fuck he wants.

I'm not sure why they didn't just call this Suicide Squad 2, because it very much feels like a sequel. Just a sequel that does basically everything better than the original while also more or less being the same basic movie. So think Terminator 2 is what I'm saying.

Idris Elba is so much better than Will Smith. In fact, this is probably my favorite performance from him since Stringer Bell. Given that this is supposed to be (I think) a reboot, I'm not sure why they cast him as Bloodsport instead of Deadshot, but whatever. He's just more likable than Smith, I guess. It's hard to put my finger on exactly why he works better in ostensibly the same role (the straight main surrounded by a bunch of stupid maniacs). Maybe it's that everyone around him is so much better for him to play off of? I don't know, but I hope they make more of these and bring him back.

The casting overall is great, even if some great genre actors like Nathan Fillion and Michael Rooker feel wasted. John Cena steals the show with a wonderful comedic performance as Peacemaker. Margot Robbie continues to be a great choice as Harley Quinn. Stallone is hilarious as King Shark. Fucking Taika Waititi shows up to deliver a single line.

This is really what the first film should have been. It's fun, funny, dumb as shit, and the action is absurdly over the top in the best way.

Fucking loved it.
