Saturday Good Times and Fortune Cookies

There are those in the world who make a living reviewing films. They get gobs of money and are treated as celebrities, basically for having an informed opinion on the film industry. And they get to see movies well in advance, they get perks like hotel rooms and star interviews and cocaine fueled orgies. I think. That last part I’m not so sure about. It’s safe to say that your average movie reviewer is wrong, in my opinion, about half of the time, thus rendering them completely useless. Yet people still get paid for this. Case in point: Border Blues.
Somehow I doubt that a movie starring Gary Busey, Eric Roberts AND Erik Estrada could possibly get a D+ Movie Rating by Yahoo Movies. Now, keep in mind that I’ve never seen this movie, but seriously, Erick2 plus Gary “Point Break” Busey MUST be at least ridiculously entertaining.
I think people don’t often review the movies that are so terrible that they’re hilarious. Some movies are awesomely terrible for their inspired casting, like The Girl Gets Moe which features Tony Danza as an Italian mobster king pin. Hilarious for that alone. Some are so terrible that no one goes to see them, like Gigli which was so horribly acted that you couldn’t help but laugh. The retard says “My penis sneezes and I say ‘God bless you penis’” for christs sakes. That’s just funny.
Don’t get me wrong. There are terrible, terrible movies out there. Dracula 3000 and Taxi for instance. You just don’t see the “It’s so bad it’s good.” review out there at all really. I’m lobbying for that one.

Enough ranting. Check out what Winnie Cooper from The Wonder Years is doing. Like right now. Check it out because SCI-FI channel only does re-runs all of the time.
