I Watched Every Razzie Worst Picture Winner (ft. ​Nikki Carreon & YungJunko)

  • 0:00 - 0:02
    What's up cinephiles,
    I'm Evasive,
  • 0:02 - 0:06
    and this piece of paper right here
    means two things:
  • 0:06 - 0:09
    Number one, I am tens of
    thousands of
  • 0:09 - 0:10
    dollars in debt,
  • 0:10 - 0:13
    and number two, I know a lot
    about movies.
  • 0:13 - 0:17
    and since the U.S government
    isn't giving me any debt relief this year,
  • 0:17 - 0:20
    I have no choice now but to
    torture myself on the Internet
  • 0:20 - 0:22
    for money to pay off the loans
  • 0:22 - 0:23
    I took out to go to film school.
  • 0:24 - 0:27
    So for this video, I watched every
    movie that's ever won
  • 0:27 - 0:29
    a Razzie Award for Worst Picture
    of the Year.
  • 0:29 - 0:31
    This was an extremely painful
    experience
  • 0:31 - 0:33
    and I regretted my decision
    immediately,
  • 0:33 - 0:35
    but for the sake of
    my adoring fans
  • 0:35 - 0:36
    and my bank account,
  • 0:36 - 0:39
    I went ahead and watched
    all 46 of these
  • 0:39 - 0:40
    movies so I could
    explain them to you.
  • 0:40 - 0:43
    But after the grueling experience
    of watching all these movies,
  • 0:43 - 0:45
    I'm not about to tackle this
    breakdown alone.
  • 0:45 - 0:48
    So I went ahead and roped in
    another video essay girly
  • 0:48 - 0:49
    and a talking trash can
  • 0:49 - 0:51
    to help explain some of these
    movies for me.
  • 0:53 - 0:55
    But before I get to the movies,
  • 0:55 - 0:57
    let me explain what the Razzies are.
  • 1:00 - 1:02
    The Golden Raspberry Awards are
    an annual event,
  • 1:02 - 1:05
    usually held the night before the Oscars,
  • 1:05 - 1:07
    to give out awards for the worst
    movies of the year.
  • 1:07 - 1:09
    It was founded by Hollywood
    copywriter
  • 1:09 - 1:11
    John Wilson and editor Maureen
    Murphy.
  • 1:11 - 1:14
    The idea for the Razzies came
    about in 1980
  • 1:14 - 1:18
    when Wilson saw Can't Stop
    the Music and Xanadu, back to back
  • 1:18 - 1:21
    and hated them both so much, he thought
    there ought to be an award show
  • 1:21 - 1:22
    for this type of thing.
  • 1:22 - 1:23
    Months later, Wilson hosted an
  • 1:23 - 1:25
    Oscars watch party at his house,
  • 1:25 - 1:27
    and after the Oscars had finished,
  • 1:27 - 1:30
    he and Murphy passed out ballots
    to everyone at the party
  • 1:30 - 1:32
    to vote on the worst movies of the year,
  • 1:32 - 1:34
    and then he announced the
    winners in his living room.
  • 1:34 - 1:36
    Over time, the ceremony
    grew and grew,
  • 1:36 - 1:39
    and today they're considered a staple
    of the Hollywood award season
  • 1:39 - 1:41
    as a low-budget Bizarro World
    Oscars
  • 1:41 - 1:43
    that distributes awards in
    categories
  • 1:43 - 1:46
    such as Worst Actor, Worst Director,
  • 1:46 - 1:47
    and Worst Screenplay.
  • 1:47 - 1:50
    Unlike the qualifications for voting
    at the Oscars though,
  • 1:50 - 1:52
    becoming a Razzie voter
    is very easy:
  • 1:52 - 1:54
    either be friends with
    one of the producers
  • 1:54 - 1:56
    or just pay a $40 membership fee.
  • 1:56 - 1:58
    That's all it takes.
  • 1:58 - 2:00
    So that's the story of the Razzies.
  • 2:00 - 2:02
    Now are you ready to learn about
    every single movie
  • 2:02 - 2:04
    that won Worst Picture?
  • 2:05 - 2:06
    Because I wasn't.
  • 2:06 - 2:09
    There's 46 of these things, so I'm
    going to talk about each one
  • 2:09 - 2:10
    for just a minute or two
  • 2:10 - 2:12
    and hand off a few to my guests
  • 2:12 - 2:14
    so I don't completely lose my mind here.
  • 2:14 - 2:16
    Also, I put a content warning on a
    bunch of these movies
  • 2:16 - 2:19
    because of the sensitive subject
    matter I discuss.
  • 2:19 - 2:22
    Not trying to traumatize anybody
    but myself in this video.
  • 2:23 - 2:24
    Well, me and my guests.
  • 2:25 - 2:27
    But I commissioned them for this,
    so it-it's fine.
  • 2:38 - 2:40
    "Anybody who swallows two snowballs
    and a ding-dong shouldn't"
  • 2:40 - 2:42
    "have trouble with pride."
  • 2:42 - 2:45
    The first movie to win Worst Picture was
    Can't Stop The Music,
  • 2:45 - 2:49
    A movie about the "origins"
    of the disco group Village People.
  • 2:49 - 2:54
    And I say origins in air-quotes because
    the Village People play themselves
  • 2:54 - 2:56
    and the plot is completely made-up
  • 2:56 - 2:58
    and not at all how the Village People
    actually formed
  • 2:58 - 3:02
    The movie itself is super campy
    and full of these crazy musical numbers
  • 3:02 - 3:04
    that are unironically kinda great.
  • 3:04 - 3:07
    It's just too bad that in between
    those musical numbers are these scenes
  • 3:07 - 3:11
    with really terrible acting
    that go on for way too long.
  • 3:11 - 3:16
    [movie] -Wait a minute! I am not taking one
    -more step 'til I know where I'm going.
  • 3:16 - 3:19
    -Yeah, quit my job, and you
    -got me walking the beat again!
  • 3:19 - 3:22
    - I'm not even getting paid for it!
    - Hold your horses.
  • 3:22 - 3:24
    -I told you I had a surprise for you.
  • 3:24 - 3:27
    -I hope so. I turned in my
    -coin change with the toll booth.
  • 3:27 - 3:31
    its not that awful of a movie, but by 1980
    the disco fad was pretty much over and
  • 3:31 - 3:33
    people loved to hate on
    disco music at the time
  • 3:33 - 3:36
    so you can see why this
    ended up being such a huge bomb.
  • 3:36 - 3:40
    Also, shockingly, this movie marks the
    first film appearance of Caitlyn Jenner
  • 3:40 - 3:42
    and apparently the experience was so bad
  • 3:42 - 3:46
    she didn't appear in a movie again until
    Jack & Jill in 2011.
  • 3:46 - 3:50
    And, uh, well.
  • 3:56 - 3:59
    Mommie Dearest is a "biopic"
  • 3:59 - 4:03
    about the life of actress Joan Crawford's
    adopted daughter Christina.
  • 4:03 - 4:07
    and again, I say biopic in air-quotes
    because the movie was based on
  • 4:07 - 4:09
    Christina Crawford's controversial memoir
  • 4:09 - 4:12
    that other members of Joan Crawford's
    family disavowed when it came out.
  • 4:12 - 4:14
    I haven't done much research on the topic
  • 4:14 - 4:17
    so I'm in no position
    to question this story.
  • 4:17 - 4:19
    But I will say that after
    the movie was made
  • 4:19 - 4:23
    Christina said the film was grotesque
    and not true to her memoir.
  • 4:23 - 4:26
    Released just 4 years after
    Joan Crawford passed away,
  • 4:26 - 4:30
    this movie basically spits all over
    her fresh grave
  • 4:30 - 4:32
    and portrays her as a horrible mother
  • 4:32 - 4:35
    who frequently, physically and emotionally
    abused her daughter.
  • 4:35 - 4:38
    now whether or not this is actually true
    is still a matter for debate of course.
  • 4:38 - 4:42
    Regardless of the real-life circumstances
    behind the movie,
  • 4:42 - 4:45
    Faye Dunway's performance
    of Joan Crawford is iconic now.
  • 4:45 - 4:48
    People who have unfortunately experienced
    emotional abuse from a parent
  • 4:48 - 4:51
    found her performance
    scarily true to their own life experiences
  • 4:51 - 4:54
    but general audiences thought
    she was just being
  • 4:54 - 4:56
    outrageously campy and
    over the top the whole movie.
  • 4:56 - 4:58
    Because of its reputation
  • 4:58 - 5:01
    the film accidentally
    became a queer cult classic over the years
  • 5:01 - 5:03
    especially in the drag community.
  • 5:03 - 5:06
    and it was even featured in the most
    recent season of RuPaul's Drag Race.
  • 5:06 - 5:11
    "No wire hangers!"
  • 5:11 - 5:14
    ♫ No more wire hangers ♫
    ♫ Ah, ah! ♫
  • 5:14 - 5:19
    ♫ No, no, wire hangers ♫
    ♫ No, no, no, no ♫
  • 5:24 - 5:28
    [Evasive] Inchon is a movie about
    the battle of Incheon in the Korean War.
  • 5:28 - 5:30
    It was financed and produced
    by the Unification Church,
  • 5:30 - 5:34
    a movement that was and still is
    considered a dangerous cult
  • 5:34 - 5:37
    with a leader who called himself
    the second coming of Jesus Christ.
  • 5:37 - 5:40
    The film's producer was
    a very wealthy member of the church.
  • 5:40 - 5:42
    who said he was instructed by God
    to make the film.
  • 5:43 - 5:46
    So, unsurprisingly, no investors wanted
    any part of this.
  • 5:46 - 5:51
    and all 46 million dollars of the budget ended up
    being provided by the church and its followers.
  • 5:51 - 5:55
    The film itself doesn't really have much
    to do with the Unification Church.
  • 5:55 - 5:59
    It's a straightforward war movie that's
    just boring and unremarkable.
  • 5:59 - 6:03
    It had some star power but only because
    the actors in it were paid a lot of money.
  • 6:03 - 6:06
    with Laurence Olivier even admitting
    before the movie was released
  • 6:06 - 6:08
    that he was only in it for the money.
  • 6:08 - 6:11
    It was such a flop that nobody even
    bothered to release it on home media.
  • 6:12 - 6:14
    and the only available version
    of the movie today
  • 6:14 - 6:17
    is from an old VHS rip from when it
    played on Unification Church TV channel.
  • 6:18 - 6:21
    The only thing worth seeing in this movie
    is Laurence Olivier's makeup job.
  • 6:21 - 6:23
    I mean he looks like the Joker.
  • 6:30 - 6:31
    This movie is just tasteless.
  • 6:31 - 6:34
    it's based on a novel by Harold Robbins
  • 6:34 - 6:37
    who was paid 600 000 dollars
    for the film rights,
  • 6:37 - 6:39
    and apparently fell asleep
    in the screening room,
  • 6:39 - 6:41
    and never actually watched the movie.
  • 6:41 - 6:43
    First of all, in the first 15 minutes,
  • 6:43 - 6:46
    young Ray Liotta,
    in his first ever movie role,
  • 6:46 - 6:49
    sexually assaults the main character
    with a garden hose.
  • 6:49 - 6:53
    and then after that the rest of the movie
    is just her being forced to have sex
  • 6:53 - 6:55
    with gross older men
    in order to get ahead in Hollywood.
  • 6:55 - 6:57
    And you see all of it.
  • 6:57 - 7:00
    It seems like it was trying to criticize
    sexism in Hollywood
  • 7:00 - 7:02
    but instead of handling it with
    any kind of nuance or respect
  • 7:02 - 7:04
    the movie fully shows the sex scenes
  • 7:04 - 7:07
    and does the very thing
    it's trying to critique.
  • 7:07 - 7:10
    The final scene in the movie shows
    her winning an Oscar for Best Screenplay
  • 7:10 - 7:12
    and calling out the men
    who took advantage of her
  • 7:12 - 7:14
    in her acceptance speech.
  • 7:14 - 7:18
    and then she's booed off stage, and leaves,
    and the movie just ends there.
  • 7:18 - 7:20
    It's really uncomfortable to watch.
  • 7:22 - 7:24
    But somehow the next movie is even worse.
  • 7:30 - 7:34
    Ugh, god, ok. soo..
  • 7:34 - 7:36
    Bolero is a movie by John Derek.
  • 7:36 - 7:39
    John Derek is—
    (groan)
  • 7:40 - 7:42
    John Derek was an old Hollywood actor
  • 7:42 - 7:46
    who appeared in supporting roles in
    several big movies in the 1940s and 50s.
  • 7:46 - 7:48
    In 1973 when Derek was 47 years old,
  • 7:48 - 7:51
    he traveled to Europe to direct
    a low-budget movie called
  • 7:51 - 7:54
    "Once upon a Love" starring
    a 16 year old girl named
  • 7:54 - 7:56
    "Mary Cathleen Collins".
  • 7:56 - 7:59
    During the production—
    (retching)
  • 7:59 - 8:00
    I'm sorry. I'm so sorry
  • 8:00 - 8:02
    During the production,
    John Derek left his wife
  • 8:02 - 8:05
    and groomed Mary Collins
    into a sexual relationship,
  • 8:05 - 8:08
    With the two staying in Europe
    until she turned 18
  • 8:08 - 8:11
    so he could avoid
    statutory rape charges.
  • 8:11 - 8:15
    When they got married a few years later,
    she changed her name to Bo Derek
  • 8:15 - 8:19
    and proceeded to star in all of his movies
    until he died in 1998.
  • 8:19 - 8:22
    (retching)
    (vomit squelching)
  • 8:22 - 8:23
    I'm sorry.
  • 8:23 - 8:27
    So anyway, Bolero was a movie
    about a young woman fresh from college
  • 8:27 - 8:30
    who travels to Morocco in Spain
    to lose her virginity.
  • 8:30 - 8:32
    and If that wasn't bad enough,
  • 8:32 - 8:36
    this movie features a full-frontal
    nudity scene with a 14 year old girl.
  • 8:36 - 8:39
    Not an actress playing a 14 year old girl.
  • 8:39 - 8:42
    An actual 14 year old girl.
  • 8:42 - 8:46
    (retching, vomit squelching)
    (coughing)
  • 8:53 - 8:55
    If you've never seen any
    Rambo movies before
  • 8:55 - 8:58
    the image you probably associate
    with the word "Rambo"
  • 8:58 - 9:00
    is the one where
    hypermasculine Sylvester Stallone
  • 9:00 - 9:02
    is firing a machine gun
    without a shirt on.
  • 9:03 - 9:07
    But see, that's actually from this movie,
    "Rambo First Blood: Part II",
  • 9:07 - 9:09
    which has very little to do
    with Part 1 at all.
  • 9:09 - 9:12
    The whole point of
    the first Rambo movie is that
  • 9:12 - 9:15
    Rambo was a Vietnam War veteran
    with severe PTSD
  • 9:15 - 9:18
    who snaps and kills a bunch of
    small-town cops who treat him like shit.
  • 9:18 - 9:20
    This sequel, on the other hand
  • 9:20 - 9:23
    throws that tragic anti-war character
    out the window
  • 9:23 - 9:26
    as the US government sends him
    back to Vietnam
  • 9:26 - 9:28
    to locate prisoners of war
  • 9:28 - 9:31
    and Rambo is just like weirdly ok with that.
  • 9:31 - 9:33
    It's like he immediately got over his PTSD
  • 9:33 - 9:35
    and just got straight to blowing stuff up,
    no problem.
  • 9:35 - 9:38
    This movie was
    a massive box office success
  • 9:38 - 9:40
    and made double of what
    the first movie made,
  • 9:40 - 9:43
    so naturally, Rambo III also ditched
    the anti-war angle
  • 9:43 - 9:45
    and sent Rambo to Afghanistan.
  • 9:45 - 9:48
    I dunno as someone who thought
    the first movie was amazing,
  • 9:48 - 9:51
    it really sucks to see how quickly
    they ruined this character.
  • 9:51 - 9:53
    But, like, I get it.
  • 9:53 - 9:55
    The people who went to go see
    these sequels in theaters
  • 9:55 - 9:57
    didn't watch it for the plot.
  • 9:57 - 9:59
    They watched to see
    Sylvester Stallone do this.
  • 9:59 - 10:07
    (bow twang)
    (explosion)
  • 10:14 - 10:17
    In the early 80s,
    Prince was a rising star.
  • 10:17 - 10:19
    And his stardom was cemented in 1984
  • 10:19 - 10:21
    with the massive hit that was Purple Rain.
  • 10:21 - 10:23
    so after the success of Purple Rain,
  • 10:23 - 10:27
    Warner Bros. told Prince he was basically allowed to
    do whatever he wanted for his next project
  • 10:27 - 10:30
    greenlighting Under the Cherry Moon
    without even reading the script
  • 10:30 - 10:34
    the story is, Prince plays a guy in
    the French Rivier named Christopher
  • 10:34 - 10:36
    He and his friend (tricky) try to
    scam a rich girl out of her inheritance
  • 10:36 - 10:39
    but they both end up
    falling in love with her.
  • 10:39 - 10:41
    problems with the movie became apparent early on
  • 10:41 - 10:44
    when Prince hired someone with
    no experience to write the script.
  • 10:44 - 10:46
    Then 16 days into filming,
    the director quit.
  • 10:46 - 10:50
    And Prince took over even though he had
    no experience directing a movie before.
  • 10:50 - 10:54
    The end result was a movie that features
    what I can only describe as
  • 10:55 - 10:56
    sarcastically says Acting.
  • 10:56 - 10:59
    Don't try anything funny.
    Not this time, Christopher.
  • 11:00 - 11:04
    I want the money or I throw
    you both out onto the street.
  • 11:06 - 11:07
    (gasp)
  • 11:07 - 11:10
    That's right, [inaudible]
  • 11:13 - 11:15
    Throw me on the the street?
  • 11:15 - 11:17
    It's bizarre, it's one of
    those movies where
  • 11:17 - 11:20
    the acting is so bad
    it loops around to being funny
  • 11:20 - 11:23
    which has given it
    a bit of a cult following over the years
  • 11:23 - 11:24
    that and the soundtrack is amazing
  • 11:24 - 11:25
    like with Purple Rain
  • 11:25 - 11:28
    Prince released an album with the movie
    that went Platinum
  • 11:28 - 11:31
    and is today remembered as
    one of his most iconic albums of his career
  • 11:31 - 11:34
    After Under the Cherry Moon failed,
    Prince tried one more time
  • 11:34 - 11:36
    to direct a feature-length movie
  • 11:36 - 11:39
    but that one got nominated
    for a bunch of Razzies too
  • 11:39 - 11:42
    and after that he gave up and
    never tried to direct a movie again.
  • 11:42 - 11:45
    Also this here marks
    the first ever tie in Razzies history
  • 11:45 - 11:47
    with Under the Cherry Moon tieing with
  • 11:47 - 11:49
    (laughing)
  • 11:49 - 11:51
    Howard the Duck.
  • 12:00 - 12:11
    (Evasive laughing)
  • 12:11 - 12:17
    Greetings, Evasive viewers,
    it is I, young Junko, expert in Bird Law
  • 12:17 - 12:20
    and I'm here to defend
    my client Howard T. Duck,
  • 12:20 - 12:24
    star of the Razzies' Worst Film of 1986,
    Howard The Duck
  • 12:24 - 12:27
    For nearly the last 40 years
    my client's reputation has been
  • 12:27 - 12:28
    tarnished and slandered against
  • 12:28 - 12:32
    by quack punch, chicken shit critics
    for this tragic box office bomb.
  • 12:32 - 12:37
    "Central character, the Duck, the one
    that we're gonna be rooting for,
  • 12:36 - 12:39
    he's neither funny, or bit of funny."
  • 12:39 - 12:41
    But I'm here to clear the air.
  • 12:41 - 12:45
    Howard the Duck is not a movie,
    no, it's a duckumentary.
  • 12:45 - 12:47
    I know this because I was there.
  • 12:47 - 12:48
    We all were.
  • 12:49 - 12:53
    My entire clan witnessed
    my client crash land on Earth
  • 12:53 - 12:56
    to star in a motion picture
    that of which has been
  • 12:56 - 12:59
    Um.
  • 12:59 - 13:03
    it's still awful. It's bad.
    We're not winning this case, buddy.
  • 13:03 - 13:05
    I wasn't trying anything. Honest!
  • 13:05 - 13:07
    This is a strange movie to say the least.
  • 13:07 - 13:10
    Howard the Duck notoriously opens
    with 2 instances of
  • 13:10 - 13:12
    full frontal duck booba
    in the span of 30 seconds.
  • 13:14 - 13:16
    But the rest of the movie is this whiplash
  • 13:16 - 13:19
    between what's a squeaky clean
    full house type family movie
  • 13:19 - 13:22
    that no one older than the age of
    3 years old would find funny
  • 13:22 - 13:25
    followed by things like
    Marty McFly's mom showing off her ass and
  • 13:25 - 13:28
    pulling out a condom for Howard's corkscrew.
  • 13:28 - 13:29
    Howard…
  • 13:29 - 13:32
    It's like anti-matter Shrek where
    they didn't know
  • 13:32 - 13:34
    how to mix adult humor
    and a kids' flick properly yet
  • 13:34 - 13:37
    so it becomes this overly long
    bland comedy
  • 13:37 - 13:39
    with hardly any intentional laughs
  • 13:39 - 13:42
    that just happens to throw in something
    totally obscene every now and then
  • 13:43 - 13:45
    - [Howard] Oh!
    - I just can't resist your
  • 13:45 - 13:47
    intense animal magnetism.
  • 13:48 - 13:51
    uhh there's a lot of uhh attempts at duck puns,
  • 13:51 - 13:54
    most are just replacing
    a random phrase in a word with "duck"
  • 13:54 - 13:58
    "That's it. No more Mr. Nice Duck."
  • 13:58 - 14:01
    Even the director's name is Willard Hyuck.
  • 14:02 - 14:03
    That's a duck name.
  • 14:04 - 14:05
    That's a name you give a duck.
  • 14:06 - 14:09
    The first half of the movie has Howard
    pointlessly meandering
  • 14:09 - 14:12
    there's no funny interactions or
    observations or memorable bits
  • 14:12 - 14:15
    it's just an aimless movie
    with the guy in the duck suit.
  • 14:15 - 14:17
    You have an entire portion of the movie
  • 14:17 - 14:20
    where Howard has a job
    as a towel boy in like a sex club
  • 14:20 - 14:22
    it's fun for the whole family!
  • 14:22 - 14:25
    Yeah, Breeders, what the hell.
  • 14:25 - 14:28
    Bareback bestiality and pedophilia.
  • 14:28 - 14:32
    Oh yeah, we find Howard getting launched to earth
    as a result of a quack mace incident.
  • 14:32 - 14:35
    which also leads to Palpatine
    somehow returning from the dead
  • 14:35 - 14:38
    and possessing the body of that one actor
    that's in every 80s movie
  • 14:38 - 14:41
    who would later go on to be
    arrested for being a sex pervert.
  • 14:41 - 14:43
    What do you think he would like to eat?
  • 14:43 - 14:46
    I no longer need human food.
  • 14:46 - 14:48
    [Junko] I need little boy butts.
  • 14:48 - 14:51
    You have a movie where
    a talking duck fires a giant laser
  • 14:51 - 14:53
    at a hell portal to stop
    a horde of alien warlords
  • 14:53 - 14:54
    from taking over the Earth
  • 14:54 - 14:57
    and they still manage
    to make it a total snooze fest
  • 14:57 - 14:59
    They try to give Howard a bit of edge
  • 14:59 - 15:00
    but he still feels
    too kiddy and sanitized
  • 15:00 - 15:02
    for what they're going for
  • 15:02 - 15:03
    And part of that is also his design.
  • 15:03 - 15:06
    He looks like a cross
    of a Furby and MacCulkin.
  • 15:06 - 15:07
    There were some things I did like,
  • 15:07 - 15:09
    like these alien overlords are pretty cool
  • 15:09 - 15:11
    their design and the stop motion
    is really well done.
  • 15:11 - 15:14
    and the sequence where
    Howard gets shot into space
  • 15:14 - 15:16
    is pretty neat, pretty
    impressive to look at.
  • 15:16 - 15:20
    I like this sequence where Howard
    and Andy Dufresne get a 6 star wanted level
  • 15:20 - 15:21
    and start flying away from all the cops
  • 15:21 - 15:22
    that was good.
  • 15:22 - 15:24
    Yeah, Tim Robins is in this
  • 15:24 - 15:27
    Imagine having what's considered
    one of the best movies of all time
  • 15:27 - 15:28
    as part of your portfolio
  • 15:28 - 15:31
    and on the other end of the
    spectrum, Howard the Duck,
  • 15:31 - 15:32
    now that's range
  • 15:32 - 15:35
    Genuinely I was taken aback
    because some of the shots in this movie
  • 15:35 - 15:37
    undeniably do go hard. I feel like
  • 15:37 - 15:40
    There's a version of this movie that
    could've actually been good with less work
  • 15:40 - 15:44
    like if they leaned into Howard being this
    cynical, perverted wise-quacking duck
  • 15:44 - 15:46
    that's down on his luck,
    who gets thrust into Earth
  • 15:46 - 15:48
    and finds this strange new realm
  • 15:48 - 15:50
    actually isn't so much different from his own.
  • 15:50 - 15:52
    and then it's all about the bills,
    baby, put it on my belt
  • 15:52 - 15:56
    He could take it as an
    opportunity for a fresh start,
  • 15:56 - 15:57
    slowly climbing his way up the corporate ladder
  • 15:57 - 15:59
    until becoming a national celebrity
  • 15:59 - 16:01
    that gets caught up in 80s
    consumerism and greed
  • 16:01 - 16:05
    and then maybe having him begrudgingly
    involved in weird sci-fi fantasy stuff
  • 16:05 - 16:06
    like the comics, I dunno.
  • 16:06 - 16:08
    I'm not sure how to defend my client.
  • 16:08 - 16:09
    Give him the chair.
  • 16:10 - 16:11
    (Howard screams)
  • 16:19 - 16:29
    (Evasive laughing)
  • 16:29 - 16:32
    Alright, I may not have been
    able to defend Howard,
  • 16:32 - 16:37
    but know this: from this day forth,
    I will ensure every client of mine
  • 16:37 - 16:38
    is proven innocent.
  • 16:38 - 16:42
    Now for my next client,
    I will be defending one Bill Cos-.
  • 16:42 - 16:43
    Bill Co-Bill Cosby.
  • 16:46 - 16:48
    Bill Co-Bill Cosby.
  • 16:48 - 16:51
    I-I'm good. Your Honor? i with-I withdrawal.
  • 16:51 - 16:54
    I withdrawal your honor. I'm good. We're done here. We're done.
  • 16:54 - 16:57
    It's Leonard, part 6.
  • 16:57 - 17:00
    Ask anyone who's seen
    this movie, they'll tell you
  • 17:00 - 17:02
    that's when they first knew
    lil' Bill was a real piece of shit
  • 17:02 - 17:06
    I got to say when I first heard there was a
    comedy movie that just started on part 6
  • 17:06 - 17:11
    I thought hey, that's kind funny, maybe this movie
    could be bad in a good way, at the very least
  • 17:11 - 17:15
    Nope, it's just bad,
    it's boring, it's so boring.
  • 17:15 - 17:17
    If there's one thing Cosby
    was always a master at
  • 17:17 - 17:19
    it's making people very sleepy.
  • 17:19 - 17:22
    The whole thing is supposed to be
    a spoof on the spy genre, sort of like
  • 17:22 - 17:25
    like Naked Gun, except it actually
    came out a year before that movie
  • 17:26 - 17:29
    They really just had the cameras rolling
    and had Bill Cosby do whatever he wanted
  • 17:29 - 17:32
    There's a bunch of weird sex shit
  • 17:32 - 17:33
    I mean the clues are all there,
  • 17:33 - 17:36
    in the movie his wife divorced him
    because he slept with a 19 year old
  • 17:36 - 17:40
    and his daughter is dating a much older man
    to further her career as an actress
  • 17:40 - 17:43
    so then Leonard has to see her
    flash her tits on stage
  • 17:43 - 17:46
    for no reason, none of these scenes
    add anything to the movie
  • 17:46 - 17:49
    I think Cosby just wanted to
    look at some young girl tits
  • 17:49 - 17:52
    The whole film has this weird
    lethargic and slow energy to it
  • 17:52 - 17:54
    Everything from the dialogue
    to the editing,
  • 17:54 - 17:57
    it's like watching a movie at 0.5 speed.
  • 17:57 - 17:59
    The movie opens with
    Leonard and an assassin
  • 17:59 - 18:00
    having a shootout in a kitchen
  • 18:00 - 18:04
    The joke is that what they're doing
    is actually helping prep some of the food
  • 18:04 - 18:08
    Ok, could be funny but the pace of it all
    is so bizarrely off by a step
  • 18:08 - 18:11
    Every gag and bit is like this,
    like they took something that was
  • 18:11 - 18:15
    maybe a 3 out of 10 joke at best
    and spread it so thin that
  • 18:15 - 18:16
    you-you ask yourself,
  • 18:16 - 18:18
    Was there even
    a joke at all to begin with?
  • 18:18 - 18:21
    The plot follows Leonard
    being the best agent in the world
  • 18:21 - 18:24
    who's long been retired, until being
    pulled back for one last mission
  • 18:24 - 18:26
    after a buncha animals under
    mind control start killing people
  • 18:26 - 18:28
    yet again a god-awful 80s comedy starts
  • 18:28 - 18:30
    off with an animal looking at a porno mag.
  • 18:30 - 18:32
    Here's you two fucking nickels.
  • 18:32 - 18:34
    The first half is him just
    stumbling around
  • 18:34 - 18:36
    trying to get back with his ex wife
  • 18:36 - 18:39
    who pours soup on him—
    wh-what is this gag?
  • 18:39 - 18:42
    Is this a fetish, Mr. Cosby?
    You think this was genuinely funny?
  • 18:42 - 18:46
    [mocking] We'll have him pour soup.
  • 18:47 - 18:50
    Cosby doesn't have a single
    funny line or hook to his character
  • 18:50 - 18:52
    you can tell he's put
    zero effort into any of this
  • 18:52 - 18:55
    It's almost like he said "Yeah I'll do the movie
    but I don't wanna look too stupid,
  • 18:55 - 18:57
    don't make me look too stupid
  • 18:57 - 19:01
    most of these so-called jokes are what the most
    boring uptight person in the world
  • 19:01 - 19:02
    would think being silly is.
  • 19:02 - 19:06
    [mocking] Oh, look, wow
    he's being a ballerina, so girly.
  • 19:06 - 19:10
    Oh, wow, he's doing a silly fitness tape,
    how can he subject himself to that.
  • 19:10 - 19:12
    oh, wee, you know what I mean?
  • 19:12 - 19:14
    it's like he thinks
    these things are so beneath him
  • 19:14 - 19:16
    that just him doing it would be funny.
  • 19:16 - 19:18
    What a piece of shit.
  • 19:18 - 19:20
    y'know what really makes me mad, though?
  • 19:20 - 19:23
    It's completely unfair. Because everyone
    else seems to be trying, but him.
  • 19:23 - 19:25
    there's a part In the end when Leonard
  • 19:25 - 19:26
    frees all the animals from captivity,
  • 19:26 - 19:29
    and I just wanna take this time to
    recognize this bird right here.
  • 19:29 - 19:33
    Who in this 5 second shot, bends the bars
    of his cage with his beak and breaks free
  • 19:33 - 19:34
    God bless this bird.
  • 19:34 - 19:38
    This bird right here put more effort
    than Bill Cosby in his own movie.
  • 19:38 - 19:41
    This bird did not deserve to be
    in one of the worst movies of all time.
  • 19:41 - 19:42
    None of these animals did.
  • 19:42 - 19:45
    This ostrich didn't deserve to be betrayed
  • 19:45 - 19:48
    with a sex criminal grinding
    his pudding pop on its back.
  • 19:48 - 19:49
    if you think about it
  • 19:49 - 19:53
    If audiences in 1987 hated this,
    watching it now,
  • 19:53 - 19:57
    with all the humor naturally diluted
    even further through the passage of time
  • 19:57 - 19:59
    is like drinking a 40 year old
    can of new coke
  • 19:59 - 20:01
    and when Bill's the one handing you the drink,
    it's safe to say
  • 20:01 - 20:02
    you probably shouldn't drink it.
  • 20:02 - 20:04
    (gurgling)
  • 20:11 - 20:15
    Cocktail is a movie where young Tom Cruise
    plays a bartender in Manhattan.
  • 20:15 - 20:18
    and then he movies to Jamaica
    and falls in love with a girl.
  • 20:18 - 20:20
    but then he loses her and he moves back
    to New York to win her back
  • 20:20 - 20:21
    and that's pretty much it.
  • 20:21 - 20:23
    What you see is what you get
    with this one.
  • 20:23 - 20:25
    It's a really mediocre movie.
  • 20:25 - 20:27
    Not that good, but not that bad either.
  • 20:27 - 20:29
    Well except for this scene when
    Tom Cruise stands on a bar
  • 20:29 - 20:31
    and reads his shitty poetry.
  • 20:31 - 20:32
    This is pretty cringey.
  • 20:32 - 20:35
    [tom cruise] I see America drinking
  • 20:35 - 20:38
    the fabulous cocktails I make.
  • 20:38 - 20:39
    crowd laughs
  • 20:39 - 20:42
    America's getting stinking
    on something I stir or shake.
  • 20:42 - 20:44
    (laughing)
  • 20:44 - 20:47
    I make drinks so sweet and snazz-ay,
  • 20:47 - 20:50
    the iced tea, the kamikaze,
  • 20:50 - 20:52
    (hollering)
  • 20:52 - 20:57
    the sex on the beach
    is Schnapps made from peach
  • 20:57 - 21:00
    the ball and hammer
    the Alabama slammer!
  • 21:00 - 21:04
    Unsurprisingly with Tom Cruise starring,
    this movie was a massive success,
  • 21:04 - 21:09
    earning a ridiculous 171 million dollars
    on a 20 million dollar budget.
  • 21:09 - 21:12
    It's also the movie that the Beach Boys song
    "Kokomo" song was written for.
  • 21:12 - 21:15
    Besides that, not much to talk about here.
  • 21:15 - 21:19
    I'm pretty sure it only won Worst Picture
    because this was the same year
  • 21:19 - 21:21
    Rain Man was favored to win Best Picture.
  • 21:21 - 21:24
    and the voters must have thought it would be
    funny to make the Best and Worst Picture
  • 21:24 - 21:26
    be Tom Cruise movies.
  • 21:33 - 21:37
    Ok, so, before making this video,
    I hadn't watched any Star Trek at all.
  • 21:37 - 21:39
    But because I'm committed to my craft,
    I went ahead and watched
  • 21:39 - 21:41
    all 6 of the original movies
  • 21:41 - 21:44
    just so I could understand why this one
    is considered the worst.
  • 21:44 - 21:45
    and after all that, I—
  • 21:46 - 21:48
    Yeah. I get it now.
  • 21:48 - 21:52
    It's not a horrible movie but especially
    compared to the previous films in the series,
  • 21:52 - 21:54
    Star Trek V is pretty bleh.
  • 21:54 - 21:56
    Pretty much everything went wrong
    behind the scenes.
  • 21:56 - 21:59
    William Shatner directed it
    with no prior directing experience.
  • 21:59 - 22:02
    Nobody could agree on anything
    during the writing process,
  • 22:02 - 22:03
    There was a writers' strike.
  • 22:03 - 22:05
    Then a Teamsters strike.
  • 22:05 - 22:07
    They shot a lot of the movie
    in the Mojave Desert,
  • 22:07 - 22:09
    which is just as miserable as it sounds.
  • 22:09 - 22:13
    and after filming was done, they only had
    3 months to make the special effects,
  • 22:13 - 22:16
    and all the best effects technicians
    in Hollywood were busy working on
  • 22:16 - 22:18
    Indiana Jones 3
    and Ghostbusters II at the time.
  • 22:18 - 22:21
    Do I think this movie
    deserved Worst Picture? No.
  • 22:21 - 22:25
    It does some wacky things like
    introduce Spock's long-lost brother
  • 22:25 - 22:26
    that he never mentioned before
  • 22:26 - 22:28
    Or show Kirk getting mauled
    by a cat woman.
  • 22:28 - 22:31
    but overall I really don't think it's that bad
  • 22:31 - 22:32
    Though to be honest
  • 22:32 - 22:33
    I'm not a Trekkie who had to see
  • 22:33 - 22:37
    Captain Kirk show up on the Enterprise
    in a "Go climb a rock t-shirt"
  • 22:37 - 22:38
    So…
  • 22:40 - 22:42
    I mean…is that-is that bad?
  • 22:42 - 22:44
    I-I actually don't know.
  • 22:45 - 22:48
    Can someone in the comments tell me
    if i'm, if that's like a bad,
  • 22:48 - 22:49
    if that's not in character?
  • 22:49 - 22:52
    I actually don't know if I
    should be mad at this or not?
  • 22:59 - 23:01
    The Adventures of Ford Fairlane was a
  • 23:01 - 23:03
    "comedy" starring Andrew Dice Clay.
  • 23:03 - 23:05
    If you don't know who Andrew Dice Clay is,
  • 23:05 - 23:08
    he was a comedian most active
    in the late 80s and early 90s
  • 23:08 - 23:10
    who was known for his character the Dice Man,
  • 23:10 - 23:15
    which was basically a cover for him to tell
    the most offensive jokes he possibly could.
  • 23:15 - 23:16
    And they're always on parade.
  • 23:17 - 23:19
    They march up and down the street
    with t-shirts and flags
  • 23:19 - 23:22
    'I want money for AIDS disease.'
    Beautiful.
  • 23:22 - 23:25
    I want money for a new fucking car,
    I ain't marching up and down the street
  • 23:25 - 23:26
    Get a job, butt slammer.
  • 23:27 - 23:30
    [Evasive] The movie itself
    is about a detective, I guess,
  • 23:30 - 23:31
    I dunno, it's just not funny at all.
  • 23:31 - 23:35
    honestly I kept going to my phone the
    whole time because I was just so bored.
  • 23:35 - 23:37
    - I got something serious to discuss.
  • 23:38 - 23:41
    Yeah, what is it, premature ejaculation?
    (laughing)
  • 23:41 - 23:44
    like that time we were at her
    parents' wedding anniversary,
  • 23:44 - 23:45
    and I told that joke,
  • 23:45 - 23:47
    'What's the definition of vagina?
  • 23:47 - 23:51
    The box the peanuts comes in!' (laugh)
  • 23:51 - 23:53
    Gilbert Godfrey plays
    the only funny character in the movie
  • 23:53 - 23:57
    but he dies like 25 minutes in
    and the rest is just a boring mess
  • 23:57 - 23:58
    that's impossible to follow.
  • 23:58 - 24:02
    The director Renny Harlin was also
    working on Die Hard 2 at the time
  • 24:02 - 24:06
    which ended up coming out in theaters
    at the exact same time as Ford Fairlane
  • 24:06 - 24:09
    and when you look at the money
    comparison between the two movies.
  • 24:09 - 24:11
    Yeah, it's pretty obvious which movie
    he cared about more.
  • 24:11 - 24:13
    Clint Eastwood.
  • 24:13 - 24:16
    I fucked him. Oh!
  • 24:22 - 24:24
    [Evasive] 1990 was another tie
  • 24:24 - 24:27
    with Ford Fairlane tieing
    with another movie
  • 24:27 - 24:29
    from unapologetic
    pepophile John Derek.
  • 24:29 - 24:33
    In this one, Bo Derek plays a woman
    married to a much older man
  • 24:33 - 24:37
    and when the older man dies,
    his ghost takes up residence in her head
  • 24:37 - 24:39
    and goads her into murdering a man
  • 24:39 - 24:41
    so he can possess his body
    and have sex with her again.
  • 24:41 - 24:44
    It's a supernatural dirty old man movie
  • 24:44 - 24:46
    where John Derek fantasizes about
  • 24:46 - 24:48
    living rent-free in Bo Derek's head
    after he dies.
  • 24:48 - 24:51
    Plus this ended up being his last movie.
  • 24:51 - 24:53
    It would be poetic
    if it wasn't so disgusting.
  • 24:53 - 24:58
    Bo was very very young.
    Linda was very young…
  • 24:58 - 25:00
    not as young as urcela
  • 25:00 - 25:02
    I guess I just meet them young,
  • 25:02 - 25:04
    before they're wise enough
    to know I'm not the guy.
  • 25:04 - 25:07
    Anyway the acting is bad,
    the story is bad,
  • 25:07 - 25:08
    the visuals are bad,
  • 25:08 - 25:11
    but the real cherry on top here is: this movie
  • 25:11 - 25:13
    was the first film appearance
    of Donald Trump.
  • 25:13 - 25:17
    No joke, Trump's first movie
    was made by a pedophile.
  • 25:17 - 25:20
    He even does a little duck face in it,
    look at him.
  • 25:22 - 25:23
    Poetic.
  • 25:29 - 25:31
    Just watch this clip.
  • 25:31 - 25:32
    Woah!
  • 25:33 - 25:35
    Happy sailing..
  • 25:35 - 25:40
    Oh no! How am I driving?
    1-800-I'm gonna-fucking-die!"
  • 25:40 - 25:43
    [Evasive] Bruce Willis plays
    a master burglar fresh out of prison
  • 25:43 - 25:45
    who was blackmailed into stealing some art
  • 25:45 - 25:48
    but it's all part of a conspiracy
    to build a secret machine
  • 25:48 - 25:50
    invented by Leonardo Da Vinci
    that can turn lead into gold.
  • 25:50 - 25:55
    At this point in his career, Bruce Willis
    was mainly known for Die Hard 1 and 2,
  • 25:55 - 25:57
    and was looking to branch out
    with Hudson Hawk.
  • 25:57 - 26:00
    but apparently he couldn't decide
    what he wanted it to be.
  • 26:00 - 26:01
    In an interview,
    one of the writers later said:
  • 26:01 - 26:03
    I started to know we were in trouble
  • 26:03 - 26:05
    when Joel and Bruce
    would say during filming
  • 26:05 - 26:08
    You know what this is?
    This is a Pink Panther movie.
  • 26:08 - 26:09
    The next day they'd say
  • 26:09 - 26:12
    You know what this is? This is an
    American James Bond movie.
  • 26:12 - 26:16
    Then it would be: you know what this is
    This is North by Northwest.
  • 26:16 - 26:18
    I even remember someone saying:
  • 26:18 - 26:20
    You know what this is?
    This is Casino Royale.
  • 26:20 - 26:24
    Eventually I realized, that if every day they
    were saying it was something different
  • 26:24 - 26:27
    by the time we got to the editing room,
    we were going to be in trouble.
  • 26:27 - 26:29
    So yeah, the final product
    is all over the place.
  • 26:29 - 26:32
    But the movie has developed
    a bit of a cult following over the years
  • 26:32 - 26:35
    just because it's so…so silly
  • 26:35 - 26:37
    (screaming)
  • 26:37 - 26:39
    - Honey?
    - (screaming)
  • 26:39 - 26:40
    Ball ball?
  • 26:40 - 26:41
    Woof!
  • 26:43 - 26:45
    (dog screaming)
  • 26:53 - 26:55
    Here's another movie
    that's really not that bad.
  • 26:55 - 26:59
    It's a World War II spy movie where
    Melanie Griffith is a half Jewish woman
  • 26:59 - 27:02
    with no spy experience
    who signs herself up to be a spy in Berlin
  • 27:02 - 27:06
    because she wants to prove herself and
    save her Jewish cousins who are in hiding.
  • 27:06 - 27:08
    Michael Douglas plays another spy
  • 27:08 - 27:12
    and pre-Schindler's List
    Liam Neeson plays a Nazi officer.
  • 27:12 - 27:14
    Most of the complaints about
    the movie were aimed at
  • 27:14 - 27:17
    how unbelievable
    Melanie Griffith is as a spy
  • 27:17 - 27:19
    because she is really bad at her job.
  • 27:19 - 27:23
    Like "spilling soup on Liam Neeson and
    taking the German kids she's nannying
  • 27:23 - 27:26
    to the building her cousins are hiding in"
    kind of bad
  • 27:26 - 27:28
    But overall it's not that awful of a movie
  • 27:28 - 27:30
    because the plot holes
    and writing problems
  • 27:30 - 27:33
    are balanced out by a good soundtrack
    and good cinematography
  • 27:33 - 27:35
    It's just average.
  • 27:35 - 27:36
    Not bad enough to be memorable
  • 27:36 - 27:39
    but not good enough
    that you'd ever watch it again.
  • 27:39 - 27:41
    basically the cinematic equivalent
    of eating at Denny's.
  • 27:41 - 27:44
    I think 1992 was just a slow year
    for bad movies in general.
  • 27:44 - 27:48
    That same year they also
    nominated Newsies for Worst Picture
  • 27:48 - 27:51
    and Danny DeVito for
    Worst Supporting Actor
  • 27:51 - 27:55
    like…what? Why? How?
  • 27:56 - 27:57
    What?
  • 28:04 - 28:06
    Once again, this is a movie
    that's not that bad.
  • 28:06 - 28:09
    It's a drama where
    Woody Harrelson and Demi Moore
  • 28:09 - 28:11
    play a financially struggling
    married couple in Vegas
  • 28:11 - 28:13
    and Robert Redford is a filthy rich guy
  • 28:13 - 28:16
    who offers the couple 1 million dollars
  • 28:16 - 28:18
    for a 1 night stand with Demi Moore.
  • 28:18 - 28:19
    Honestly, it's fine.
  • 28:19 - 28:23
    It takes itself very seriously
    and it's vaguely misogynistic at points.
  • 28:23 - 28:27
    Also it's completely unbelievable that
    a man who looks like Robert Redford
  • 28:27 - 28:29
    would ever feel the need to
    pay a million dollars
  • 28:29 - 28:31
    to sleep with someone
  • 28:31 - 28:33
    But in the context of the movie it all works.
  • 28:33 - 28:35
    definitely not the
    worst movie of the year.
  • 28:35 - 28:36
    that's for sure
  • 28:36 - 28:38
    I mean You're telling me that Indecent Proposal
  • 28:38 - 28:41
    won Worst Picture but Mr. Nanny
    wasn't even nominated?
  • 28:41 - 28:43
    Razzie voters were asleep
    at the wheel this year.
  • 28:53 - 28:56
    In this one Bruce Willis plays a
    psychologist who can't see the color red
  • 28:56 - 28:59
    who gets wrapped up
    in a murder after his colleague
  • 28:59 - 29:01
    gets killed Assassin's Creed-style
  • 29:01 - 29:03
    and he suspects it was someone
    in his therapy group.
  • 29:03 - 29:06
    I'm so confused why this
    was even nominated for Worst Picture
  • 29:06 - 29:08
    because it really isn't a bad movie at all.
  • 29:08 - 29:12
    It's surreal and weird, sure,
    but in a Twin Peaks type of way
  • 29:12 - 29:14
    where it's still unsettling
    and fun to watch.
  • 29:14 - 29:17
    Definitely a 6.5 out of 10 movie for me.
  • 29:18 - 29:19
    Maybe a 7 out of 10 I dunno.
  • 29:19 - 29:23
    this is another one that became a
    cult hit after it was released on home video
  • 29:23 - 29:26
    Partly because of this crazy sex scene
    in a pool that everybody wanted to see
  • 29:26 - 29:29
    It was even streaming
    on Criterion Channel at one point
  • 29:29 - 29:31
    which basically means
    that it's certified art.
  • 29:31 - 29:32
    That's all I have to say.
  • 29:32 - 29:36
    I dunno guys, some of these 90s movies
    just aren't bad enough to complain about.
  • 29:43 - 29:45
    There's a lot to be said about Showgirls.
  • 29:45 - 29:47
    First of all, Director Paul Verhoeven
  • 29:47 - 29:50
    was the first to accept
    his Razzie award in person.
  • 29:50 - 29:52
    And that's kind of funny.
  • 29:52 - 29:55
    [Paul] And I'm very happy
    because it was much better, much more fun
  • 29:55 - 29:58
    than reading the reviews in September.
    Thank you so much.
  • 29:58 - 30:02
    (clapping, cheering)
  • 30:02 - 30:04
    Second of all, Showgirls isn't bad.
  • 30:04 - 30:07
    It's actually a great movie,
    in my opinion, and a lot of people agree.
  • 30:07 - 30:11
    It is a wild movie about the world of
    high budget Las Vegas strip shows
  • 30:11 - 30:13
    and Obviously with subject matter like that
  • 30:13 - 30:15
    you're going to view it very differently
  • 30:15 - 30:17
    depending on your gender and sexuality.
  • 30:17 - 30:19
    But regardless of what kind
    of person you are
  • 30:19 - 30:22
    the experience of watching this movie
    is an absolute rollercoaster.
  • 30:22 - 30:24
    One. Two. Three.
  • 30:24 - 30:28
    Thrust it. Thrust it. thrust it. Thrust it!
  • 30:28 - 30:29
    Come on, thrust it.
  • 30:29 - 30:33
    But for as over the top as this movie is
    it's also pretty true to life.
  • 30:33 - 30:36
    During his research,
    writer Joe Eszterhas interviewed
  • 30:36 - 30:38
    over two hundred strippers in Las Vegas
  • 30:38 - 30:41
    and the result was a
    shockingly straightforward depiction
  • 30:41 - 30:44
    of the lives of high profile
    sex workers and performers
  • 30:44 - 30:47
    And a biting satire against
    show business in general.
  • 30:47 - 30:49
    Take a look at these tits.
  • 30:49 - 30:50
    What are these, watermelons?
  • 30:51 - 30:53
    This is a stage, babe, it's not a patch.
  • 30:53 - 30:54
    See ya.
  • 30:54 - 30:56
    Your ears are sticking out. They are.
  • 30:56 - 30:58
    Come back and see me
    when you get em fixed.
  • 30:59 - 30:59
    See ya.
  • 31:01 - 31:03
    Can you spell MGM backwards?
    I bet you can't.
  • 31:03 - 31:05
    - MGM.
    - I'm impressed.
  • 31:06 - 31:08
    Come back when you
    fuck some of those baby fat off.
  • 31:08 - 31:12
    Now in today's era of gritty HBO dramas,
    none of this is that shocking
  • 31:12 - 31:15
    but in 1995 this was next level stuff.
  • 31:15 - 31:18
    Plus with the subject matter,
    this movie has a lot of nudity.
  • 31:18 - 31:21
    It was rated NC-17 in America
  • 31:21 - 31:25
    and to date it is the only NC-17 movie
    ever given a wide release in theaters.
  • 31:25 - 31:28
    It was so explicit and controversial
  • 31:28 - 31:31
    that MGM had to hire security
    at every movie theater in America
  • 31:31 - 31:35
    just to make sure nobody under
    the age of 18 snuck into the theater.
  • 31:35 - 31:37
    The movie lost millions of dollars
  • 31:37 - 31:39
    and to this day, no studio has ever dared
  • 31:39 - 31:42
    to try and release an NC-17 movie
    in theaters again.
  • 31:42 - 31:46
    If this sounds interesting to you,
    I actually recommend giving this movie a watch
  • 31:46 - 31:50
    because I can't really do it justice
    with just words alone.
  • 31:50 - 31:50
    Just know what you're getting
  • 31:50 - 31:51
    into before you turn it on
  • 31:51 - 31:55
    because this movie is every bit
    as traumatic as it is glamorous
  • 32:00 - 32:02
    This movie is like if showgirls
  • 32:02 - 32:03
    was actually bad
  • 32:03 - 32:05
    Demi Moore plays an FBI agent
  • 32:05 - 32:08
    who looses her daughter in a custody battle
    and becomes a stripper in florida
  • 32:08 - 32:10
    at a place called the eager beaver
  • 32:10 - 32:12
    to pay for a court appeal
  • 32:12 - 32:14
    she basically girl bosses
    being a stripper
  • 32:14 - 32:16
    not in a nuance way
    like showgirls though
  • 32:16 - 32:19
    but in a stupid way that
    takes itself too seriously
  • 32:19 - 32:22
    and is mostly just boring
    and not believable at all
  • 32:22 - 32:25
    despite the bad reviews the movie
    ended up being a huge success
  • 32:25 - 32:27
    The director, writer, producer
    Andrew Bergman
  • 32:27 - 32:30
    basically quit holly wood after this movie
  • 32:30 - 32:34
    I'm pretty sure what happened is once
    he got Demi Moore to agree to go topless
  • 32:34 - 32:37
    he just phoned in the rest of the movie
    because clearly the audiences
  • 32:37 - 32:39
    who went to see this
    weren't watching it for the plot
  • 32:46 - 32:49
    The post man takes place
    in a distant future year of 2013
  • 32:49 - 32:52
    after much of humanity has
    been wiped out by the plague
  • 32:52 - 32:57
    Kevin Costner who also directed the movie
    stars as a traveling shakespeare performer
  • 32:57 - 33:01
    that's conscripted to caesar's legion
    but he escapes and finds an old mail bag
  • 33:01 - 33:03
    full of mail and pretends
    to be a mail man so he can get food
  • 33:03 - 33:07
    and accidently restarts the
    us postal service in the process
  • 33:07 - 33:09
    also it's almost 3 hours long
  • 33:09 - 33:13
    honestly as far as post apocalyptic
    adventures go, this one isn't that bad
  • 33:13 - 33:16
    it's about the same level of quality
    as water world actually
  • 33:16 - 33:20
    but the fact that it was a 3 hour long
    kevin costner vanity project
  • 33:20 - 33:25
    released just a week after titanic
    made it a very easy target for critiques
  • 33:25 - 33:27
    what is Kevin Costner up to
    these days anyway
  • 33:27 - 33:30
    typing on computer
  • 33:39 - 33:42
    I mean hey, good luck Kevin
  • 33:50 - 33:51
    If you aren't familiar
  • 33:51 - 33:56
    The name Alan Smithee is a fake name the directors
    guild of america came up with in 1968
  • 33:56 - 34:00
    that directors who wanted to take their
    name off a movie, were required to use instead
  • 34:00 - 34:04
    and this movie caused such a headache
    that the directors guild had to
  • 34:04 - 34:07
    officially stop allowing the use of the
    Alan Smithee name in movies
  • 34:07 - 34:12
    OK, so, this movie was written by
    Joe Eszterhas and directed by Arthur Hiller
  • 34:12 - 34:15
    It's a mockumentary about a guy
    who's name is actually Alan Smithee
  • 34:15 - 34:18
    who directs an action movie
    but he hates the finished product
  • 34:18 - 34:21
    so he steals the film reels
    and holds them ransom
  • 34:21 - 34:23
    because he wasn't allowed to take
    his name of it
  • 34:23 - 34:26
    now behind the scenes in real life
    Joe Eszterhas was in charge of
  • 34:26 - 34:30
    cutting burn hollywood burn and when
    Arthur Hillers saw the final version
  • 34:30 - 34:33
    he hated it so much he had
    his name taken off the movie
  • 34:33 - 34:36
    but this of course created confusion
    because this was a movie
  • 34:36 - 34:40
    about Alan Smithee and the poster
    said it was directed by Alan Smithee
  • 34:40 - 34:46
    which you would assume was just a joke
    but no, the director actually had his name
  • 34:46 - 34:47
    taken off the movie
  • 34:47 - 34:50
    it would take me so long to explain
    everything that's wrong
  • 34:50 - 34:52
    with this movies so let me
    just sum it up in four words
  • 34:57 - 35:00
    there is way too many characters
    the movie jumps all over the place
  • 35:00 - 35:02
    Harvey weinstein is in it
  • 35:02 - 35:03
    eww sound effect
  • 35:03 - 35:06
    there's lots of not funny parts
    where the camera freeze frames
  • 35:06 - 35:08
    and there's a wall
    of text on screen
  • 35:08 - 35:11
    I'm guessing what happened is they
    filmed all these scenes separately
  • 35:11 - 35:15
    and thought they were hilarious on set
    but when they got to the editing room
  • 35:15 - 35:18
    they realized they had nothing to work with
    so Joe Eszterhas tried to
  • 35:18 - 35:20
    salvage it by adding a bunch of
    text edit jokes
  • 35:20 - 35:22
    which actually made the movie worse
  • 35:22 - 35:25
    I have no proof of this of course
    but it seems right to me
  • 35:25 - 35:27
    I mean I'd probably do the
    same thing in that situation
  • 35:41 - 35:46
    ok so this is a western steampunk
    fusion movie starring the fresh prince
  • 35:46 - 35:49
    and the guy who plays Mr. Fish odor
    in bob's burgers
  • 35:49 - 35:53
    as cowboy government agents hunt down
    an evil ex confederate officer with no legs
  • 35:53 - 35:58
    who kidnapped president
    Ulysses S Grant with a giant robot spider
  • 35:59 - 36:00
    that's what this movie is
  • 36:08 - 36:09
    this movie is ridiculous
  • 36:09 - 36:13
    I don't know what the executives at
    warner brothers were snorting in the board room
  • 36:13 - 36:17
    when they decided to spend over $170
    on a movie where cowboy Will Smith
  • 36:17 - 36:19
    fights a huge mecha-spider
  • 36:19 - 36:25
    but thank god they did because Will Smith
    turned down playing Neo in the matrix to do this movie
  • 36:25 - 36:29
    and I want you to imagine now what it
    would be like if Will Smith played Neo in the matrix
  • 36:31 - 36:33
    Evasive laughs
  • 36:33 - 36:35
    [Will Smith] I probably would have
    messed the matrix up. I wouldv'e ruined it
  • 36:35 - 36:37
    so I did y'all a favor
  • 36:37 - 36:41
    this might not be a good movie but
    oh my god it's so funny
  • 36:41 - 36:44
    plus the theme song is pretty fire
  • 36:44 - 36:48
    "if I may quote one of the great gangster rappers
    William Will Smith
  • 36:48 - 36:59
    wicky wild wild wicky wicky wild
    wicky wild wicky wicky wild wild wild west
  • 36:59 - 37:04
    wicky wild wicky wicky wild wild west
  • 37:05 - 37:06
    do you find those lyrics inspiring?
  • 37:06 - 37:08
    [person 1] I mean, I-I...
  • 37:15 - 37:20
    battlefield earth is an action sci-fi movie
    based on a novel written by L. Ron Hubbard
  • 37:20 - 37:22
    the founder of scientology
  • 37:22 - 37:26
    which he wrote in 1982 when he
    was in hiding to avoid going to prison
  • 37:26 - 37:27
    for his numerous crimes
  • 37:27 - 37:30
    It's about a distant future world
    where humanity has been enslaved
  • 37:30 - 37:34
    by evil aliens called the Psychlos
    which are a very obvious metaphor
  • 37:34 - 37:37
    for L. Ron Hubbard's vitriolic hate of psychiatrists
  • 37:37 - 37:40
    John Travolta who plays the evil
    alien leader named Terl
  • 37:40 - 37:46
    and has been a scientologist since 1975
    is directly responsible for this movie existing
  • 37:46 - 37:49
    the production company that took it on
    was later found to have defrauded investers
  • 37:49 - 37:54
    out of $31 million by over reporting
    production costs causing a law-suit
  • 37:54 - 37:57
    that forced the company to go bankrupt
    and shut down in 2007
  • 37:57 - 38:01
    on top of that the movie was a massive
    financial flop not just because the movie
  • 38:01 - 38:06
    and it's John Travolta action figures
    were an obvious scientology recruitment tactic
  • 38:06 - 38:09
    but because the movie itself
    was a visual nightmare
  • 38:09 - 38:12
    the special effects are ugly
    the costumes are disgusting
  • 38:12 - 38:14
    and the whole movie was filmed
  • 38:14 - 38:17
    with these crooked angles that changed
    multiple times a scene
  • 38:17 - 38:19
    which gave a bunch of people motion sickness
  • 38:19 - 38:22
    it's a realy infamously bad movie
    that's been covered by dozens of
  • 38:22 - 38:24
    other youtube channels over the years
  • 38:24 - 38:26
    so if you want more information on it
    go watch one of those videos
  • 38:26 - 38:30
    just don't watch the movie itself because
    it will do nothing but make you nauseous
  • 38:30 - 38:32
    and waste 2 hours of your time
  • 38:32 - 38:33
    I'm serious you guys
    don't do it
  • 38:41 - 38:43
    I'm sorry you guys
  • Not Synced
    conflict of interest
  • Not Synced
    I can't talk about Freddy got fingered
  • Not Synced
    one of my friends and I watched this movie
    during qurantine and we
  • Not Synced
    kind of bonded over it
  • Not Synced
    and now this movie has a special
    place in my heart
  • Not Synced
    so I made Nicky watch it instead because
    shes never seen it before
  • Not Synced
    and here she is now
  • Not Synced
    [Nicky} where the hell do I even
    begin with this movie
  • Not Synced
    part of me thinks this movie is some kind
    of deep anti comedy meant to saterize
  • Not Synced
    the other gross out comedies that
    were popular in the early 2000s
  • Not Synced
    and the other part of me thinks that
    maybe it means nothing at all
