Bad Movies / Re: Cringe movie moments

If you hear me speak you'll think I was from somewhere in England.
So, Leo was nominated for his role in Blood Diamond multiple times, including an Oscar-nomination. Mostly positive reviews by critics, lots of praise for DiCaprio. You obviously have seen the film. Do you dislike it because of the accent or did you still enjoy it?

Off Topic Discussion / Re: Random Statements About So...
Last post by claws - June 01, 2026, 04:05:03 AMYouTube is now offering me movies free of charge. Not many, but a few. I tested Kill or Be Killed (1976) and the quality was "ok". Someone else uploaded Kill or Be Killed as well, and the quality is about the same. So, what's the point? Literally thanks for nothing YouTube.

Showgirls (1995) - the entire movie was cringy, but I still love it.
No gaslighting. 😎

Regarding SHOWGIRLS, I am surprised the apartheid censor board didn't get up in arms over it but they were on their way out already.

Good Movies / Re: Recent Viewings, Part 2
Last post by Jim H - May 31, 2026, 11:02:03 PMEmpire of the Dark - Probably the best of the "bit schlubby middle aged guy writes/directs/stars in film where he's awesome" film I've seen, with a coherent story, some legitimately solid visuals, decent pacing, a pretty good score. Reminded me of The Final Sacrifice, but better made.
It's a bit silly and not well performed of course, and some of it is roughly made, but I enjoyed it. Bonus, a big puppet demon and a stop motion demon.
Trivia: a number of aspects of the art and effects in this were done by Robert Stromberg, who would go on to win back to back Oscars for production design on Avatar and Alice and Wonderland, plus seven (!) Emmys for visual effects work on stuff from Star Trek TNG to Boardwalk Empire.
