->''[[{{Twilight}} The movie]] is unconscionably long, and I can’t imagine ever wanting to watch it again, but I am glad I got to see vampires playing baseball. It’s the sort of thing that’s so stupid that it goes out of stupidity to become kind of neat, but then goes right back to being stupid again.''

->I rise to pay my small tribute to Dr. Harding. Setting aside a college professor or two and a half dozen dipsomaniacal newspaper reporters, he takes the first place in my Valhalla of literati. That is to say, he writes the worst English that I have ever encountered. It reminds me of a string of wet sponges; it reminds me of tattered washing on the line; it reminds me of stale bean soup, of college yells, of dogs barking idiotically through endless nights. It is so bad that a sort of grandeur creeps into it. It drags itself out of the dark abysm of pish, and crawls insanely up to the topmost pinnacle of posh. It is rumble and bumble. It is flap and doodle. It is balder and dash.

->''Is it bad? Sure. But it's a very enjoyable kind of bad.''
-->-- '''WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic''', on ''ConanTheBarbarian''.

->"You were so bad you were good."

->''You see, movies don't necessarily have to be '''[[BMovie good]]''' to be '''[[SoCoolItsAwesome awesome]]''': When you hear that George Romero or BruceCampbell's made a movie, you're pretty much obligated to go see it, not because you know it's gonna be a good movie, and certainly not because it's going to be any kind of artistic achievement, but because it's gonna be '''fucking awesome!'''''

->''When we judge a game like this, how do we do it? Do we judge simply on gameplay? If so, the repetitive combat and long drives around town may very well mark it as a mediocre title. Do we judge it on story quality? If so, then we have a game that makes no sense and frequently makes light of murder and sexual deviancy. I say a game needs to be judged by how often it made you happy, how much you laughed or became excited, and how long you spend thinking about it after it was finished. If we judge it by those standards, then DeadlyPremonition, my friends, is simply stunning. No other game has made me laugh so hard, laugh almost to the point of tears, laugh just by thinking about it. ''DeadlyPremonition'' may well be the first game reviewed almost purely for its comedic value, but for a game so funny, it has to be done.''

-> "Pretty awful? Pretty awful? It was a masterpiece of awful! It's genius, how bad it is, I kinda wish you guys could see it."

->''It's a perfect storm of shit!''
-->-- '''TheNostalgiaChick''', on ''{{Showgirls}}''

->''The movie is pretty bad, all right. But it has a certain charm. It's so completely wrong-headed from beginning to end that it develops a doomed fascination.''

->''This is not the worst episode of Buffy. It’s so awful that it loops around to becoming an abstract art piece about the archaic nature of human interaction. It’s so awful that it’s as if the people made it specifically to appear on MysteryScienceTheater3000. It’s so awful that…well, it’s a waste of time and energy to spend one second hating it.''

->''"I am not trying to sell anyone of you to think that ''{{Catwoman}}'' is a good movie; because it is not. It is, in my humble opinion, Something '''better''': When a bad movie comes along, like ''WhosYourCaddy?'' it is watched, disliked and promptly forgotten. But it takes a certain kind of magic to make a unforgettably bad film. The kind of movie that is so bad that you feel compelled to watch it over and over. ''{{Troll 2}}'', ''Film/{{Birdemic}}'' and the recent remake of ''TheWickerMan'' just to name a few; ''Catwoman'' is probably the most expensive movie to sit on that list. For The WarnerBrothers it was an enormous bomb, but for me it will always be an epic win."''

->''Its delicious unconscious ridiculousness, and its enchanting naiveté, as are supreme and unapproachable, in their way, as are Shakespeare's sublimities.''
--> '''MarkTwain''', in the introduction to ''[[BlindIdiotTranslation English As She Is Spoke]]''
