        They really do.

        Weirdly xXx has Anarchists as the bad guys, although according to the movie Anarchists live in medieval castles, collect Italian sports cars and have plans to wipe out humanity because of some kind of vague nihilism that isn't explained at all - Guess it must be some kind of rare tendency I've not heard of.

    Although, that might just be straight up good. I can't tell anymore.

    I really love Now You See Me, the magician heist movie. Maybe it’s too high quality to count as so bad it’s good like Troll 2 and The Room, but it’s just a such a ridiculous cheesy concept.

    The sequels just okay though.

    Magic Mike 2 is also amazing. All the dialogue feels like it’s improvised by people who think they’re funny but are really boring and then the dancing scenes are super sexy.

      Now you See me is a great movie. I love that they use magic tricks to steal money from the insurance moguls and give it to the homeless. Praxis.

    If you haven't watched some of the Transformers Movies they are fantastically terribly written but with good eye candy special effects. It's a nice combination depending on your state.

    I particularly recommend Dark of the Moon - calling out chud tropes is like a game of Bingo. The ineffective government run by the female leader, the need for over the top foreign aggression, everyone self-justifying every action because "it's gotta be this way!" etc.

    It's a live action Paw Patrol

    Was just talking about it the other day, Breakfast of Champions with Bruce Willis and Nick Nolte. It's based on one of Kurt Vonnegut's most abstract novels and it is such a glorious mess. It's so fucking bad that I can't even find a place to pirate it any more, but it's got an all-star cast, and they all put in great performances. I would love to hear the Chapos do a show on it. Really if just Matt talked about it I'd be pretty happy, but I'm sure they'd all have something to say about it.

        Directed by Gus Van Sant. With Uma Thurman, Lorraine Bracco, Pat Morita, Angie Dickinson. Sissy Hankshaw (Uma Thurman) is born with enormous thumbs that help her hitchhiking through the U.S. from a young age. She becomes a model in advertising, and her New York agent, "the Countess" (Sir John Hurt), sends her to his ranch in California to shoot a commercial, set against the background of mating whooping cranes. There, she befriends Bonanza Jellybean (Rain Phoenix), one of the cowgirls at the beauty ranch. The cowgirls take command of the ranch from the Countess and drug the cranes with peyote. The Police besiege the ranch.

        Okay guys, this was a very funny joke but I get the point, you can wake me up from the coma now.

      We should make an episode of the people's podcast about it. We all watch it together and then discuss the mess

            Yes I have, there are no seeders. Last I checked there were two other peers like me hoping one of the seeders would log in.

            E: Before you waste your time, I also went through the entire encyclopedia of movie123 or whatever fly-by-night streaming sites and I had no luck there either. It really seems like I'm one of the only people who likes this movie. Even Vonnegut hated it.

      Shit I forgot about Alongside Night! Same production company as God's Not Dead, only if it were written by libertarians and with a fifth of the budgets. The villains in the movie are literally FEMA Swat Teams.

      This is the best scene in the movie, in that it is so incompetent it's basically indistinguishable from Tim and Eric. Unbelievably low production, unjustifiable cuts, scenes that cut back and forth across time. You basically can't hear what anyone is saying. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fkWaTMY_F_s
