Bad Movies / Collaborative List: The Ultima...

Last post by Rev. Powell - November 29, 2025, 01:00:20 PM

OK, the concept here is an eternally evolving top 25 so-bad-they're good movie list.

Rules:

1. Each individual can post once per day and do up to 2 "moves."
2. For a move, you can either add a name to the end of the list OR move a title up one spot on the top 25 list. If choose to add a title, it replaces the previous #25 (once we are at 25 titles, that is).

For clarity's sake you can use either "+ [movie name]" to add one or "^ [movie name]" to move up a spot, but I will probably figure it out anyway if you don't.

I will update the list regularly.

For example, my first post will be

+ PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE
+ THE ROOM

Giving us a starting list of

1. PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE
2. THE ROOM

The thing is, I asked Copilot to come up with a text description of the poster first, then make the poster. So it came up with a poster description its own policies wouldn't allow it to create. Very strange.

Not strange but logical according to copilot.

Direct request difference: If you skip the "describe first" step and just ask for the poster, the system interprets the title in a more open, theatrical way. It doesn't generate a problematic description before the image, so the request can pass safely.

So the second person's request worked because the system never had to commit to a text description that violated its own rules.

Interesting, I suspected something like that. I started going text first because the "title only" versions were often lame compared to the text concepts, and could be tweaked more easily before generating the poster. The thing is, I don't want to fool with it: if it won't make a poster or make it properly in two or less tries, I'll move on to another. I could continue asking it to continue to fine tune the poster, but it normally makes new errors when you try to fix something.

I broke my own rule I stated above with this one and generated it four times trying to get Copilot to get it right. This final try before giving up is OK, but I don't know why it insists on adding "Comedy" to the bottom, despite me telling it specifically to remove it in a previous poster.

Happy Thanksgiving



Germans do not celebrate Thanksgiving like Americans because their history and cultural traditions are different.
The American Thanksgiving holiday is rooted in the harvest celebrations and the historical narrative of the Pilgrims and Native Americans.

Germans celebrate "Erntedankfest" (Harvest Thanksgiving Festival) which is a traditional Christian harvest festival that predates the American Thanksgiving.
It is typically celebrated on the first Sunday of October.
