Better than the original. Michelle Pfeiffer in her first role. Soundtrack so corny it was catchy. “Cool Rider” and “We Did It For Our Country” are bangers. Maxwell Caulfield playing the Travolta role with a very muted flair. Didi Cohn back to reprise her original role.

Everybody raves about the original but I’d watch this one any day.
 
I feel like a lot of people hated The Fifth Element back in the day. I rewatched it recently and it's great fun.

Same with the original Dune movie which I'm obsessed with. Currently reading the book and I'm visualizing the original cast rather than the Denis Villeneuve cast while reading it.

Intentional camp doesn't make something bad. 🤷‍♂️
 
Slingblade
 
You liked this movie?

Interesting.
It played on repeat on Comedy Central for what seems like 2 years, 2 of my most stoned years. I still chuckle thinking about it and sometimes find myself referring to lines from it. Its probably not in my top 50 or even top 100 movies. But, I know its universally disliked so I think it fits.
 
kdramas from 1998-2010, they were hard to find outside of asia, people used to say they were cheap and cheesy

then kpop exploded in popularity and people spilled over to dramas

now a days they are huge, people by the millions watch them outside korea but 98% of them now suck, american money poured in, the hollywood happy endings followed, sanitized, big budgets, egos, then the netflix algorithmic scripting came and fok everything up

but that generation up to 2010, inspired by the hong kong 1990s was some of the best tv, they used to do 16 episodes with as little as $100k back then, and they were all 16 episodes, no seasons half seasons bullshit, no half stories and then cancelled, 16 episodes with the full story arc to the end

Iris (2009) the protagonist gets shot in the head in the final episode, his brains splashed on the car dashboard in the final scene

 
she's been through some shit

butter in coffee is pretty good
 
All In (2003) Kim In-ha gets raised in an orphanage, dead father dead mother, when he's a little bit older gets raised by his father's friend, teaches him how to card gamble in the gambling and whore alley houses of the 1970s post war slums, gathers a bankroll and flies to Vegas, immigrant life, washes car, works in kitchens, advantage bets and chases steam in the sportsbooks and bets poker cash, gets a reputation with the casinos, gets hired by them and climbs the corporate casino world, makes good money, finds love, loses the money, loses his girl, he fucks his life up, returns to Korea, with the few money left he buys a plot of land in Jeju island to grow persimmons, this story hit my heart man

 
Great movie, but that was universally liked lol
Was Rushmore really universally liked? Not one person I've introduced it to in real life has ever heard of it.
 
Never heard of it. 🙋

It wasn’t a wide released movie. Indie but very critically acclaimed. Pretty much like all of Wes Anderson’s movies.
