We droppin' like a comet and this Vulcan tried to Spock it/These Martians tried to do it, but knew they couldn't cop it

Super Mario Brothers: The Movie from 1993 is a movie that I couldn't get enough of as a kid and still enjoy today. I didn't grow up playing the Mario games (we could only afford a Genesis), so I pretty much went into the movie with no expectations. It's just such a bizarrely entertaining experience between the lighthearted music, braindead characters, and the dystopian pseudo-cyberpunk setting that I had a blast the first time I watched it.

I'm pretty sure every time we would go to Blockbuster it was always in our pile of tapes to rent.

As a kid, I LOVED the Warriors of Virtue, and it still holds a place in my heart despite how dumb it is. Basically, it's a ripoff of TMNT, but with ninja kangaroos that each have an elemental theme (including metal, for some reason) in a mystical vaguely-Asian inspired world. The plot barely holds together and the characters don't make much sense, but the world looked cool, and that's all I needed.

My poor grandmother even bought me the kangaroo warrior toys, and I have a sealed copy of the VHS lying around somewhere.

Freejack is probably one of my favorite trashy 90's action movies. Sure, it features some truly awful performances and a plot that doesn't make much sense, but holy hell, is it just a lot of fun. Cars flipping and exploding at the drop of a hat, Mick Jagger trying to act as he leads his brightly-colored Mad Max-esque gang around, and a vision of a future 2009 that is truly strange. I can't help but love it.

Dreamcatcher is a movie that people really hate but I absolutely love! Everything about it is just such a perfect storm of bad that it wraps around to being hilarious. Bizarre acting choices, calling the aliens 'poo poo weasels', Morgan Freeman clearly not giving a poo poo; it's all so, so good.

if lady in the water is bad why is Paul Giamatti there

He needed a paycheck.

Lady in the Water is interesting only because of M. Night's huge ego. He plays an author who will publish a work so profound and deep that he will lead humanity into a new age of peace.

Just was reminded of X-Men Wolverine: Origins and drat do I love that movie. Terrible script, terrible effects, terrible acting, it's got it all and is so entertaining because of it.
