Bad Movies / Re: Your fave movie bloopers?
Last post by zombie no.one - December 08, 2025, 06:22:48 AM
well, thanks to this thread I've just discovered that what I always thought was a blooper is in fact not a blooper.

In TWINS, the amount of money they get is $5M, but they mysteriously start saying it's $4M by the end, iirc with no explanation. always thought that was a blooper, but imdb's [incorrectly regarded as goofs] page says the 'implication' is that Danny Devito's character stole $1M of it for himself... long time since I saw it, but I don't recall feeling that was ever implied.

Another blooper that has puzzled me for decades is in Arnold's Commando (1985). Arnold's character John Matrix has a daughter named Jenny, played by a young Alyssa Milano. The female co-star's character is named Cindy. About 2/3rds of the way through the movie, he starts calling his daughter Cindy!

The really odd thing is that this blooper seems to exist only on the rented Australian VHS I watched in 1986. I watched that movie over and over again and I was sure that this was the case. But other copies I've seen do not have this error. So weird.

Aww, Daaaaad!  :teddyr:

Last post by Archivist - December 08, 2025, 05:19:31 AM
Hey, I totally hear you about this nether realm of softcore movies. I saw two on California hotel pay-tv in 1988, no idea what they were called, and the only thing I seem to remember is a guy having his toe sucked by a woman in a French maid outfit. If only I had written the names of the movies in my journal, it would have been fun to track them down and see them again.

Quote from: wositelec on September 09, 2025, 01:29:48 AMIt isn't, but thank you. It was movie from 80s or 90s.

Do you recall when and how you saw it? For example, on normal TV, cable TV, some time in the 90s, perhaps on a local broadcast?

Just finished a horrid film

Smokey & the Bandit 6 Bandit and the Beauty

But wait you are thinking there is only 3 S&tB films. Well that was until 1994 when 4 made for tv sequels got unleashed.

This one had Kathy Ireland as the female lead. Bandit is on his way to a race,Kathy steals his car. Bandit ends up driving a bus full of Nudists and nuns.

Total s**t.

Quote from: Archivist on December 07, 2025, 11:47:42 PMExciting news for Star Wars fans. In February 2027, there will be a limited run of the original theatrical version of Star Wars, untouched by George Lucas. As someone who was blown away by the movie in the cinema all those years ago, I am really looking forward to this.

Who has memories of the first Star Wars? When did you first see it, and what did you think?



I saw it in the Embassy Cinema in my hometown of Gwelo, Rhodesia (now Gweru, Zimbabwe) and I was ten.

Once seen, never forgotten 😊😊🐢

Quote from: WingedSerpent on December 07, 2025, 04:14:58 PMHaven't watched the LOTR trilogy in a while. 

Yes, indeed.

Someone gave me a bit of crap regarding me including the trilogy in my book and I asked them where J R R Tolkien was born, they said England and I said Noooo, Bloemfontein, South Africa 😄
