Title: Mom and Dad Save the World
Post by: Andrew on July 24, 2005, 09:24:08 PM
Sorry I have been a bit absent lately.  Between two children and 14 hour days at the unit, I often just do not have the time.  The weekends are often my only time with Jenna and Andy, so I am with them the whole time.  Once the day is done, well, I often flop into bed.

Anyway, here is a fun treat:

Mom and Dad Save the World (http://www.badmovies.org/movies/momdad/)

Sometimes, I think that the entire movie is just a setup for the part with the light grenade.

Just watched the 'light grenade' clip.

Dear god I must see the full scene!!  That just looked absolutely ridiculous!  And not to mention the battle-hardened body armour they were wearing!?!??!

And to think that I have a soft spot for Super Mario Bros, so this one should be right up my alley...

LOL. Not the average Atomic Grenade (TM).

Yeah no need to apoliziie. You do a lot of good with the little time you have (and I 'm not talking about writing reviews)

They had this a blockbuster once!

I'm glad to see this one finally made the review list. I love this movie, much to my wife's chagrin. Especially when I kiss her like Emperor Tod kisses Marge. Eeeeew.

I remember seeing MOM AND DAD SAVE THE WORLD when it came out on VHS years ago. It's a fun movie and at the time I thought Jon Lovitz should have made many more movies as I found his TV and movie roles funny.

These type films are fun and reminds me of LITTLE NICKY or FLESH GORDON 2.

Hummmm....i might try this one out.
The film has some good quote lines for us folks who appreciate doing it "Cleveland Style".

I remember this one from cable years ago. Best granade gag ever! The climactic swordfight gag had me in stitches as well.

Too bad Jeffrey Jones is now best remembered as a pedophile after the incident of 2002.  He did a great job in Ferris Bueller, though.
