Flash Gordon.
Ah aaaaaah! He’ll stand for everyone of us! Fight for everyone one of us!
Do you yearn for the times where a blonde beef cake becomes the greatest warrior in the universe because… football? The costumes, sets and Queen soundtrack make the movie beautiful. But the only loosely coherent plot and baffingly suggestive erotica themes firmly make it a bad movie. A fun one tho!
Every time I watch that movie I wonder how it got made. The elevator pitch for it is terrible. The story is corny and confusing, and it’s so unnecessarily expensive. The cast, sets, and costumes are all so over the top for something so campy. Apparently it only made back 80% of its $35M budget in the box office (Empire Strikes Back came out the same year with a $23M budget).
It really shouldn’t exist and there’s nothing quite like it. I think I love it for that reason alone.
Iron Sky, it was a B movie in the early 2000’s
Ah shit, I just checked and they never made the third. That explains why I haven’t seen it yet. The franchise seems to have bankrupted two companies and is no more. There was a prequel comic though. Apparently some VFX artists sued for copyright ownership of some assets they created for the production. Despite prevailing, the defense costs did the company in.
It’s so much fun. Genuinely terrible but in a very tongue in cheek, doesn’t take itself seriously at all, kind of way. All the actors are clearly having a great time and it’s soo funny.
Love Actually
Hudson Hawk, fucking barmy film.
