Bad Movies / Re: 46th Annual Razzie Awards
Last post by claws - January 21, 2026, 03:40:03 PMQuote from: Trevor on January 21, 2026, 05:30:36 AMI see no nomination for Rachel Zegler 😳🐢
Never seen Snow White but apparently Zegler gives a "decent" performance from what I read. You would think she would be nominated after being one of the most hated celebrities on social media in 2025.

Good Movies / Re: Recent Viewings, Part 2
Last post by Rev. Powell - January 21, 2026, 02:23:29 PMTHE SECRET AGENT (2025): A man with a mysterious past hides out in Recife, Brazil in 1977, where he deals with corrupt cops and hitmen against the backdrop of Carnivale and a sensational news story about discovery of a human leg inside a beached shark. Don't let the title fool you into thinking this is a James Bond thing: it's a dramatic thriller about life during the Brazilian dictatorship that feels so authentic (right down to the uncertainty of the conclusion) and true to its period that you would be forgiven for assuming it was based on a true story. 4/5.

Good Movies / Re: Recent Viewings, Part 2
Last post by lester1/2jr - January 21, 2026, 02:11:06 PMAltered States (1980) - I'm on a ripping two movie, really good movie streak. I had seen this a number of years ago but, as usual, forgot most of it. I also remember seeing it as a kid, mainly the scene where he escapes from the tank thing. I live near Harvard, I should go see if they still have them there.
William Hurt is a scientist obsessed with our hidden ancient past that's in our DNA molecules or whatever. An, in retrospect, unlikely combination of weird drugs and an isolation tank (which is just being alone isn't it? ) are the only tools he has to try and access his inner primatational ape. Can he get anywhere with this or will he have to be happy just banging hot Harvard women and being a misunderstood genius stereotype? Director Ken Russell aims to makes sure that whatever happens, it will be psychedelicly insane at some point. He massively succeeds.
It's an interesting film to be made in 1980, as it contains the ancient DNA of the 60's with the hippy aspect, but is set amidst the rarefied, professional academic circles where probably a lot of hippies ended up? or something
In short, it's completely ridiculous and awesome. There's no zoo in Cambridge btw.
5/5

Bad Movies / Re: Your fave movie bloopers?
Last post by claws - January 21, 2026, 01:39:56 PMPuppet Master III: Toulon's Revenge is set in 1941 Berlin, yet it features a glaring historical anachronism. In one scene, a suitcase of money is shown labeled "DM" for Deutsche Mark. However, the Deutsche Mark wasn't introduced until 1948; during the war, the official currency was still the Reichsmark.
In The Sheriff and the Satellite Kid (1979), look closely at the campsite fight between Bud Spencer and Joe Bugner. If you watch frame-by-frame, you can see Bugner nearly breaking character with a laugh just before the cut. Moments later, a funny continuity error occurs: Spencer throws a heavy right hook, but Bugner reacts as if he'd been hit from the left. His head snaps in the opposite direction, completely defying the laws of physics.

Last post by chainsaw midget - January 21, 2026, 11:07:44 AMI ordered pizza. The place cancelled my order and refunded my money. So I placed a different order a few minutes later. Then I got a message telling me they were in the process of delivering my original order. The one that was canceld. Now I have the rare problem of actually having too much pizza.
