You know they are out there: the Gigli's, the Ishaters etc. So, which contemporary (1990 - present) movie is most deserved of a good MST3K experience?
My Vote: Titanic. There is enough shoddy dialouge and scene chewing going on to make sitting through it one more time worth while. Well, as long as it's being made fun of, anyway.
Any other opinions?

Crocodile. Had MST3K lasted just a few more years I promise you that this Tobe Hooper stinkwad would have been on the show.
Halloween III: Season of the Witch. May not have been 1990-present, but need I say more?
Reptilian. One of the worst Kaiju movies I've ever seen (if not the worst).

Street Fighter the Movie deserves to be sent up the SOL. Also it might be a little hard to riff(What with it being a comedy and all) but I think the Pest with John Leguizamo should be torn to shreds.

Oooohhhh, I forgot about 'The Pest'. That would be good. But I find that the best movies to get stung by MST3K are impossibly bad movies that take themselves seriously: Space Mutiny for example. What the hell were they thinking? Now I've never made a movie, but if I'm filming something, and it looks silly then, I am not going to give it to the public. I would give it the same decent burial the FIRST Fantastic Four movie (pardon me while I shudder...).
I still stick with 'Titanic'. Just to hear Mike say when the captain overlooks the ship in dock, "I'm gonna sink this bitch." is too funny to attempt to describe.
And then there's Leo DiCapachinorenio. Possibly the most overrated actors of his generation. How Jim Cameron's laughter was not picked up off camera during the film is beyond me. And I like Jim Cameron! What was he thinking? Had he no choice in casting? Did he lose a bet? I suppose we'll never know.
The success of Titanic is lost on me, but it did remind me of an old corporate motto: Never underestimate the economic power of teenage girls.

Killer Klowns From Outer Space I have to think not. To me the best choices are movies that try to be serious. Attack Of The Killer Tomatoes would not have worked either. |
