History Quotes / SoBadItsGood

->"''WesternAnimation/SharkTale'' is such an atrocious movie and I don't understand how people like it. With that said, I love this movie. I am ''obsessed'' with it. It is such an abject failure of a motion picture in every single way that it is truly captivating. [...] The animation is laughably unfinished. Every single character other than Puff Daddy and the octopus is either annoying or unlikable. Oscar is literally [[DesignatedHero a villain that the movie refuses to call out]]. [...] Literally every single thing people hate about Creator/{{DreamWorks|Animation}} is in this movie. It is the perfect storm of awfulness that only comes once in a blue moon. It's probably the true worst [=DreamWorks=] movie, but I can't realistically rank it last because it is a joy to watch and think about and meme and be absolutely baffled by. I am never bored watching ''Shark Tale''. I am always fully alert and attentive. I adore this movie and my obsession with it has only grown with time. And that's because it is, without a doubt, a cinematic disaster."

->''Few Christmas albums are as truly terrible as ''Franchise/StarWars: [[TastesLikeDiabetes Christmas in the Stars]]'', Creator/GeorgeLucas' ill-fated cash in on the Christmas season. But between [[Music/BonJovi the secret celebrity]] hiding in the credits to the seven songs sung by "robots," few Christmas albums are as enjoyably terrible as this one.''

->"''WesternAnimation/DonkeyKongCountry'' doesn't hold up to scrutiny that well...or, at all. It isn't well-written, it's very 90's in tropes and feel, and...I mean, look at it. But it's special. There's an earnestness to these performances, with some legitimately great singing and over-the-top voice work put in. The desire to emulate ''VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountry'''s technical achievements as a video game through 3D animation and motion-capture technology is incredibly admirable. And while it's aged rather horribly, it's fun seeing all this wild, untrained energy brought to the forefront. It has all the love and joy of a community theater production; the presentation isn't great, not all the cast is seasoned, but it's clear that there's a lot of heart, and that makes it endearing far beyond quality."

->"I always kind of liked them. They were so bad or silly that they were good, if you know what I mean, and [[UnintentionalPeriodPiece I think the passage of time]] might make them more fun now."

->''Those of you who have seen ''The Heretic'' have doubtless already guessed that my mind was a good deal more blown by the time I had finished watching it. As for the rest of you -— well, it’s like this… ''Film/ExorcistIITheHeretic'' isn’t just a bad sequel to a good movie. Hell, it isn’t even just a terrible sequel to a great movie. Rather, it is a film so comprehensively misbegotten, so determinedly wrong-headed, so utterly incapable of realizing its nonsensical and overweening ambitions that it has become a classic in its own right, albeit of an altogether different species from its predecessor. It is almost as if, instead of merely stealing and egregiously misapplying ''Film/TheDayTheEarthStoodStill'''s themes, ''Film/Plan9FromOuterSpace'' had been made as an official sequel to it, with the full blessing and backing of the original producers. There’s one hugely important sense in which that analogy doesn’t hold up, however, for ''Exorcist II'' was not made by any late-70’s counterpart to Creator/EdWood Jr. No, the blame for this hypnotic fiasco rests with a well and for the most part justly respected director— no less a personage than John "''Film/{{Deliverance}}''" Boorman! But what you have to remember about [[Creator/JohnBoorman Boorman]] (and what ''Exorcist II''’s producers clearly forgot) is that sometimes he’s John “''Film/{{Zardoz}}''” Boorman instead. It was very definitely the latter avatar that arrived in Hollywood in the final quarter of 1975, bearing a cranium full of breathtakingly bad ideas.

->Pompeii'' is laughably stupid, but I don't say that as a bad thing because heaven knows there are enough films that are boringly stupid.''

->''Theatre/MammaMia'' is terrible, and yet, it's one of the very few movies that passes right through the wall in the ''Franchise/StarTrek''-way where they reverse the polarity, and you come out the other side and go, "It's strangely wonderful!"

->There’s an art to writing memorable trash as opposed to boring trash. In the original Sweet Valley series, Pascal and her army of ghostwriters created a preposterous but perfectly realised world where [[WishFulfillment everyone was gorgeous, the sun always shone,]] local band The Droids were ready to play at every party and there was always a chance that a handsome newcomer, bitchy new cheerleader or serial killer would come along to liven things up. It was silly and stupid, but it was never boring.

->"I understand completely when people say that they don't play ''VideoGame/DoomEternal'' for the plot. They're just wrong. I play ''DOOM Eternal'' for the plot. And that might sound strange to you. But ''Eternal'''s plot is pure insanity, and it does everything that it needs to. We are painfully aware that the plot exists as a contrivance because the environmental designer went fucking ballistic. ''I just don't care.'' I played every single level, gleefully wondering 'Oh boy, what stupid shit is next? I ''cannot fucking wait.' So, play the game for the plot. It is ''integral'' to the experience of ''DOOM Eternal''."

->''[[CouldSayItBut I wish I could simply write]], "Look, of course it's one of the worst movies ever made. But it has hilarious dialogue, a weirdo action climax, a bizarre explanation for the faces of Easter Island, and dozens if not dozens [[NationalGeographicNudity of beautiful bare breasts]]." I am, however, a responsible film critic and must conclude that ''Rapa Nui'' is a bad film. If you want to see it anyway, of course, that's strictly your concern. I think I may check it out again myself.''

->'''John:''' It has a 35% rating on ''Website/RottenTomatoes'' which I feel is uncharitable. Before we get started, this has to be mentioned: This is a movie where Brenda [[CrazyAwesome rides alligators as water skis.]] We need to get that out of the way.\\
'''[[Blog/TheComicsCurmudgeon Josh]]:''' This movie does not half-ass it and I appreciated that. YES BE THIS GOOFY. Please have a character called “[[TheScrooge Cash Wallstreet]]” whose heart is as cold as the money in his bank. Do not apologize for what you are.

->''I know Creator/JossWhedon and David Twohy [[OldShame must get shit for working on this]], but I see them actually raising the camp value of the movie. Pure speculation, but I just see them looking at the script as is and knowing there was no way to salvage it so they had to make it as goofball as possible. I thought I would have a lot more to say about this movie but I would just be repeating myself. I would be talking about stupid scene after stupid scene. Really if you like making fun of bad movies, you don’t get a much bigger spectacle than ''Waterworld.

->"Star Trek V'' is a movie that's the closest to the original ''Star Trek'' series. It's a very classic ''Trek'' kinda plot, where they find a weird alien creature down on the planet. The other films are more action-adventure, but this more had a more classic ''Trek'' feel -- I guess even down to [[NoBudget the cheap sets and production values!]]"

->''Its delicious unconscious ridiculousness, and its enchanting naiveté, are as supreme and unapproachable, in their way, as are Shakespeare's sublimities... Nobody can add to the absurdity of this book, nobody can imitate it successfully, nobody can hope to produce its fellow; it is perfect.''

->''"Nothing will be beyond our reach!"'' says Janeway, like some ranting ''Series/DoctorWho'' villain. It seems that with the possibility of infinite velocity within her grasp, she finally shows her true colours as wanting to become the Führer of the Delta Quadrant... Janeway suggesting that Tom Paris’ name will be spoken in the same breath as Neil Armstrong and [[FamousFamousFictional Zefron Cochrane]] is so absurd it made me laugh out loud.''

->"Wow. it's rare that I see a thriller that seems to have gotten its plan from WesternAnimation/YosemiteSam trying to con Widow Granny out of her fortune. While I'm glad that this movie is on {{Creator/Netflix}} in that I can get an episode of it out sooner, a movie like this should be seen on the big screen and with the largest audience possible. Me sitting alone and screaming '[[BigWhat WHAT?!]]' to myself doesn't have the same effect. Creator/TylerPerry is a {{soap opera}}-writing genius. He ''does'' know his audience. He ''knows'' why they're here. He knows how to write things as crazy as possible to ''get you hooked on this madness!''"
