I can't find a trailer for it but Lifepod (1993) is probably the worst one I've ever seen. It's a cheapo and pointless sci-fi remake of the classic Lifeboat.
Oh god there are so many to choose from.

On the plus side there are cameos from Lemmy and Iggy Pop.
And the big daddy stinker of all time.

Do you want to know what Roland Emmerich did early in his career, before he developed his equisite taste and unrivaled skill?
He made Moon 44. (Google Video)
Although I have to admit that I think it has a certain trashy charm.
Oh and for the record, Space Truckers is awesome.
Decoys:
It was meant to be tongue in cheek, but it was also really, really bad. There were what appeared to be several different subplots that were dropped and then not fully written out, so you were left with a bunch of random foreshadowing that went nowhere. It did leave us with a couple of choice catchphrases, though:
andQuote:
"Alright, girls. Show me your bellybuttons!"
Quote:
"Belt of Orion? How about BELT OF O'FRYIN'?"
No way. Episode II makes I look like a goddamn masterpiece. "Oh, Padme, let us run through the fields together. Our forbidden love is so tragic. Also, my mom died, and Obi Wan won't let me have any fun!"Quote:

I'm excited because the original The Day The Earth Stood Still is on tonight and I loved it as a kid. I wonder if it holds up.
I watched it not too long ago and thought it was still excellent. Of course, I'd just been left in a shuddering heap by the stupidity of the remake, so maybe I was easily pleased.Quote:

If you haven't seen Omega Doom, you really should.
You weren't using those brain cells anyways. :)
I caught part of the first Resident Evil movie at night about a year - year and a half ago. This movie remains very high on my "Egads all the characters were weaned on liquid stupid" list. I could only watch about three minutes (or less) at a time, before switching to some History Channel idiocy about Nostradamus or ghosts or shit like that. After a while, the movie started to take on a surreal tone for me: They couldn't get any more idiotic than what they just did last time I checked in, could they?
Short Answer: Never underestimate the power of the liquid stupid.
Awful movie.
If I can throw in a sort of question here - I don't know the title of it, but I really disliked it. This would have been around 1986 or 88, but I saw it on TV so it may have been earlier.
There was a kid who ended up hanging out with some Space rogues/pirates, possibly because he'd stowed away. They spent most of the time doing basically nothing although sometimes people would try to kill them. By the end I think most of the crew had died, pointlessly as far as I could tell.
Space Truckers is one of my favorites - it's hilarious.Quote:

I hate every sci-fi movie that shows spacecraft zig-zagging about space as though they were Mig fighter jets flying in our atmosphere.
It just strikes me as so ridiculous that all my other suspension of disbelief goes right out of the window.
No, but I checked it out on Youtube to make sure I hadn't got it confused. And then I found a comment from someone who mentioned my film: Space Raiders. Not a good movie. I've been trying to remember that for years so I can finally erase it from memory.Quote:

Imperial Battleship! HALT - THE FLOW OF TIME!!!
It also has a very young David Hasselhoff, Christopher Plummer IN FULL ON HAM MODE and Caroline Munroe in a bikini.
The joy of the film known as Starcrash
I have to throw my hat in for Cyborg 2.

I watched this when I went through an Angelina Jolie phase... and I don't think I would have ever watched it if she hadn't been in it. It's bad. Heh.
You reminded me of one. Species II. Don't ever, ever, ever, ever, watch this!
