I've heard them talk about just walking around and deciding to go see a movie, any movie, which is frankly a baffling practice to me. I never go see a film in theaters unless I've planned to or someone asks me and I've got a reasonable interest in the film/they promise to get me trashed.
I grew up a few minutes walk from a small movie theater, so I would wander down there on dull nights as a teenager. Sometimes I had a movie in mind, sometimes I didn't. And that's how I ended up seeing Stealth on the big screen.

Living near theaters seems to lead to dark, dark things.

It's weird that We Hate Movies comes across as so much less mean spirited. You wouldn't think so from the title, but they're very good about pointing out when things actually DO work, even in a lovely movie. The only one that I remember them passionately hating was North, which is probably justified.

Less mean spirited than whom? The people on HDTGM always seem like they're having a blast to me and enjoy parts of virtually every movie they do.

Yeah, I'm in the same boat as you. But that's the irony: They Love Movies.

On the plus side, that's also how I first saw xXx: State of the Union, which became one of my favorite good-bad movies of all time.

I think I even saw a good movie there once or twice, too!

Didn't they (or at least a few of them) also work at a theater together for years?

Can I just say the most egregious thing about HDTGM to me is that their new theme song is too long, and worse than their old one.

Which was also too long, and poo poo.

There's no way Bond only has one bastard. At minimum there has to be like half a dozen out there at this point.

Oh god, that movie was...something. I did enjoy the David Niven bits at the beginning, but once it got into Woody Allen and everyone being bond, it just turned into a clusterfuck.

I'd hope they'd do King Ralph as a part of a long overdue Stay Tuned month with Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey, but I've been waiting for that for a year and now they've even stopped making STATION references.

Eh, it took them 54 episodes to get from Mortal Kombat to MK Annihilation, and it definitely took even longer to get around to Thinner, so there's always hope.

When's the last time they had a Stay Tuned month? Seems it used to be once a year.

Any Jeffrey Jones episode is gold, because I share in their frustration that he's such a talented character actor (and often the best part of some terrible movies), but ... The Troubles.

I'm talking just visually. They were far more likely to haunt my young dreams that STATION!

Station just looks like those nice old weird guys from the Dark Crystal who merged with the Skeksies.

I disliked STATION. Probably because I didn't find him particularly funny and I got the feeling we were supposed to be really excited about station, when my reaction was a WHM-esque "you can KEEP it."

I have this memory of being really young at a drive through and seeing bogus journey and being so terrified of the scary robot bill and ted and being soothed by watching the not so scary movie that was playing on the other screen behind us.

That movie was terminator 2

Bogus Journey is a movie for children and stoners that doesn't just reference The Seventh Seal, it uses that reference as the foundation of the whole plot. It's rad as hell.
