Yeah, CJ sucks at topic naming. Anyway, let's bring some life to this dead place. Here is where we can discuss some stupid nostalgic and nonsensical shit, or CJ can just post here and be ignored.  ;D

In 1989, an "unsold pilot" was made based on the movie Adventures In Babysitting which came out 2 years earlier in 1987. Why? Who in the fuck knows.  :roll: What in the fuck would the long term plot have been? This dopey bitch, who probably never acted again anyway, babysits the same kids in every episode as some shenanigans go on?

The acting is about what you would expect from an 80s show. The theme song is by far the highlight of this abomination. One episode was ever made.

Apparently Batman 1989 was kind of a big deal.

$24.98 or $17.99 for a VHS tape back then? I don't even know if that was a good deal or not.

The hype for this movie was way out of proportion. It wasn't even very good and the sequels were pretty much garbage. But damn if the people in those interviews didn't look 80s as fuck.  :emot_laughing:

CJ always digs these old hyped up movie fast food collectors cup commercials for some reason. Kinda always want them, despite them all being absolutely worthless.  :D

Give the gift of the movie of the decade, which you can now find in a dumpster or on ebay for $1.50.  :emot_laughing:

Elizabeth Shue played the babysitter. She had played in the Karate Kid before Adventures in Babysitting came out and she played opposite Tom Cruise in Cocktail the following year. Later, she starred with Nicholas Cage in Leaving Las Vegas.

In the movie. Not that garbage TV show episode.

Clerks the 1995 unaired TV show pilot.  :facepalm:

I sincerely hope Kevin Smith had nothing to do with this.

First, no quick stop. Second, too many characters. Third, I guess it wasn't as bad as the adventures in babysitting pilot.  :roll:

Do you want to merge this with your old thread “That exists?  And other silly things.”?  It’s still in the archives.

Daddy, is mommy in the ground?  :facepalm:

Steel Magnolias, yeah that 1989 movie, also had a failed TV show pilot in 1990. I don't remember even seeing the movie, and if I ever did I probably fell asleep  ;D. Given the fact there was only one episode I guess there wasn't much demand to watch a bunch of old southern women sitting in a salon bitching and moaning about their lives.  :emot_laughing:

CJ likes "fan films". Sometimes they're horrendously bad, sometimes they're pretty good.

I'm not sure about this one. But it is better than any of the recent movies. Even makes more sense.  :roll:

Then there were movies like The Wild Wild West and Mission Impossible that began as television series. They were not too bad.

Wild wild west was a TV show then a shitty Will Smith movie. Smith later apologized to Robert Conrad for making the movie.

Were all 90s movie music videos done by Will Smith?

While this is swerving somewhat off topic, I'd suspect I'm far from alone in considering some of the movies on your list as "bad."

I've only seen the first two Tom Cruise "Mission Impossible" movies, but I found them both to be absolutely thrilling. And the same goes, perhaps even more so, for the Harrison Ford remake of "The Fugitive." 

In context, the first Spongebob movie is almost perfect. The two "Addams Family" movies, with Raul Julia, Angelica Huston, Christopher Lloyd, and a young Christina Ricci, are terrific dark comedies. And the "George of the Jungle" remake with Brendan Frasier is laugh out loud funny from start to finish. 

Imho...

I am not suggesting that all remake movies have no merit; however, America has grown addicted to recycled bubblegum tripe. There are a few original films to watch at the Multiplex. And just check your cable listings on any given night. I think it reflects the overall lack of cultural sophistication that our country increasingly exhibits. Face it, when we start electing reality television personalities to the highest office, we’ve gone down the shitter.

I don't like Velma, I love Velma. And I lust after her indescribable ways. 

But I watched both of the live-action movies that came out in the early 2000s with my nephews, and they're aggressively terrible.

One of the few times the porn parody of a movie/television series may be better.  8)

Hmmm...indescribable ways?  ;D
