The Dumbest Movie Idea EVER?!?

Originally posted by dEd Grimley Haha... I remember Turbo Teen!    Anyone else out there remember M.A.S.K? I could see them trying to make that into a movie! That show really didn't stand the test of time, though. I remember watching a tape my friend had when I was like 17-18 (as opposed to the 10 or so I was when it was on). It was pretty horrible! The little "GI Joe" message rip off thing at the end was, "Don't pet strange dogs."

Have you watched Robot Chicken?  That show has poked fun at all three of those cartoons!

Anyway, you say that this will easily be the worst of the cartoon based movies.  You say it will be worse than DragginBall De-Evolution and worse than the upcoming CGI AstroBoy (BTW, Dr. Tenma, creator of AstroBoy, is voiced by Nicholas Cage).  I wonder about the latter...

I guess we could create a special category for worst cartoon based film.  The nominees could be DragginBall De-Evolution, G. I. NO, AstroPloy, Transmorfers 2, and Blood: The Worst Vampire.

I remember those two cartoons, and I once had M.A.S.K. pajamas as a little kid!  Also, are you aware that Robot Chicken made sketches based on those?

As for the claim that G.I. Joe will be the worst cartoon based movie...You say it will be worse than Dragginball De-evolution, huh?  What about the upcoming CGI Astroboy (with Dr. Tenma, Astroboy's creator, voiced by Nicholas Cage)?  I wonder about the latter.

These three films, plus Transformers 2 and Blood: TLV, are enough to create a Razzie category for Worst Cartoon Based Movie.

Also keep in mind that "Street Fighter" has been an anime series and has had a couple anime movies as well, so "Chung-Li" can be added to that Worst Live Action Movie Based On A Cartoon catagory, too.

Nic Cage aside, at least the one thing the producers got right about "Astroboy" is keeping the movie animated. That and putting a shirt on him. Seriously, what's more embrassing than being saved by a half naked little robot boy?

Cool. This film has been generating some positive reactions from early prescreenings. Seeing how I liked the trailer, I'm quite excited for the movie now:

Originally posted by Headbanger14 I don't know, whenever I see a movie where they show a World monument getting blown up, I know immediately that the movie's gonna suck. Same goes with Independence Day and even Mars Attacks! I actually hated...

Yeah, you would think if there was an attack on the world's leadership, shouldn't the villains go straight for the world leaders and major goverment buildings rather than wasting their time going after tourist trips.

Just saw "Blood: The Last Vampire". Run of the mill vampire movie, but at least it wasn't insultingly stupid like "Drag-on Balls" and "Failed Star Vechile For Chung-Li".

Apparently, CHUD is praising G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra as well, and they too are saying that it's better than Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.

Somehow I think I've been suckered into seeing Transformers 2. I mean, I listened to the soundtrack and the score by Steve Jablonsky, and not once was I convinced that I was seeing a bad movie. I can live with the technical quibbles, but the criticisms at focal point are rather immature (How many times are we gonna hear how hot Megan Fox is and how she can't act for sh*t? MOVE ALONG!) or something I didn't notice until now (I never got the feeling that Skids and Mudflap were stereotypical black caricatures; the movie seemed to have moved at a solid-enough pace, not like Watchmen).

But anyway, here's the review: http://chud.com/articles/articles/20306/1/REVIEW-GI-JOE---TH E-RISE-OF-COBRA/Page1.html

Originally posted by moviewizguy If you have the time to see that vampire movie, I'm sure you will have time to watch ORPHAN.

In theory, if you have time to watch a 90 minute movie, you have time to watch ANY 90 minute movie. The question is do I WANT to watch "Orphan"? The answer being "OH HELL'S NO"! I could always watch "The Omen" if I ever need my demonic child fix, but then again, I did need a demonic child fix ... ever.

As for the four good reviews "GI Joe" is getting so far, mind you, that's only 4 reviews. Wait for the other 200 reviews to be released and we'll see how well it goes from there.
