Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter. So bad, it's good. Not sure if many people have heard of it, though.

We also debated The Princess Bride off camera and decided that it, too, was too ever-present in the current pop culture landscape, partly owing to our shared drama experiences proving that high schoolers can and will (annoyingly) quote the entire movie to you as you watch it, especially when you ask them not to.Spot1990 said:Well this is stupid, this shouldn't be a No Right Answers episode because there is a right answer and it's The Princess Bride. You want quotes? Oh we got fucking quotes. If the definition of a cult classic is a movie that few have seen but all who have love then The Princess Bride fits perfectly. The Princess Bride is the right answer.
Believe me when I say I am not kidding. If Chris ever says that I will find him and poop on his doorstep. But I live in Ireland and that's a long flight, I wouldn't want to make that round trip so it'd be cool if he could like let me crash on his couch for a day or two or something.ZZoMBiE13 said:(Disclaimer: just so I don't get quoted and told to chill out or moderated for "threatening" an Escapist videographer or somesuch, that was a joke. I have no intentions of hunting down someone for a differing opinion)
I love Kung Fu Hustle and made a point of snagging a Bluray copy recently, only to learn that while the movie is awesome, it's shockingly offensive to gay people. Oh the early 2000s! What a stranger time you were!Thunderous Cacophony said:I was going to say Kung Fu Hustle, but a bit of Googling tells me that it actually did pretty well in terms of box office. And Donnie Darko is the definition of a cult classic in that most people hate it, and few rabidly love it. The problem is that being the archetypical cult classic doesn't make it a good movie, practically by definition.
Dan's the first of us to sire an heir, then me, and Kyle is next moth. We're the most virile show on The Escapist!D.Strormer said:What!? The best of all cult classics didn't get mentioned!? INCONCEIVABLE!
Seriously though, it's Princess Bride.
Also, congratulations to Chris. Always good to hear a nerd has spawned. It means a new generation of geeklets to keep intelligent conversation and pop culture (or anti-pop culture as the case may be) minutiae alive. Good on ya!
Are you denying that it had a sequel because the sequel was so awful? The sequel's big fuck-up was that it was missing Willem Dafoe.InsaneFool said:What no Boondock Saints? You know - the one movie that never had a sequel.
The sequel - which never happened - would have suffered because it was trying too hard recapture the lightning in a bottle that was the original - if it happened at all, which it didn't.rasputin0009 said:Are you denying that it had a sequel because the sequel was so awful?
