The thing that scares me is that this movie isn't even one of the ones commonly held to be the worst. You've scared me away from watching Plan 9 with these last two episodes, Bob.

 

[Hungry Donner]

Hilarious, thanks for the two-parter Bob, this movie clearly deserved it!

 

[getoffmycloud]

I can't be the only one who thinks this could fall into the so bad its good category right?

 

[Strain42]

These are the Big Picture episodes I like to see. Insight and knowledge into something new. After a couple of recent heavier episodes, it was nice to go back to something like this.

Keep up the good work, can't wait for next week.

How the Rainbow-fire sword didn't win, I'll never know...

 

[Qitz]

It spites cosmic rays of deadly FIYA!

I don't know why but I like that line the most.

The Rainbow Bridge was awesome though.

 

[Daystar Clarion]

I need a rainbow fire sword.

I need one now.

 

[NinjaDeathSlap]

He throws a rock to pull a magic chariot...

Stop the universe. It's just getting silly now.

You know, I was just about to think that this movie had no redeeming qualities.

And then RAINBOW FIRE SWORD.

FINALLY, something awesome in this atrocity of a movie. XD

No, dude. You should totally watch Plan 9. It's hilarious. And one of the actors is called Dudley Manlove. For real.

OT: I once saw a short clip of this movie (possibly also on this show) and the one thing I took away from it was an immense desire to own a Rainbow Firesword. Having seen more of it now, I seriously want a Rainbow Firesword more than anything else. And no, Stens butterfly sword in DA:O isn't good enough.

 

[Hungry Donner]

Maybe next time you can do Attack of the Killer Tomatoes.

My vote is for Quest for the Mighty Sword or one of the other Ator movies.

I find it funny that I was surfing the web, when I JUST remembered it was Tuesday, and I was literally thinking what King Minos was thinking at the beginning of this video:

"...Where was I? Hercules!" Yeah, forgot about the second part of this.

 

[Sougo]

But ... What WAS the big picture?

This was a comprehensive review of a bad movie I never heard of.

There are probably many such movies. What do we get from breaking one down?

 

[Crazy Zaul]

Rainbow bridge to the underworld LOL!

We get laughter, and that's important in the world.

Perhaps his next movie breakdown will be Jesus Christ, Vampire Hunter.

 

[Scarim Coral]

I got to say this-

Wow! Who need a horse when you only need a block or rock! Just as long you got enough strength to throw it at great velocity!!

 

[Ignatz_Zwakh]

The mention of Starcrash made this whole movie make a lot more sense to me. Definitely something I gotta find on ebay.

He throws a rock to pull a magic chariot...

Stop the universe. It's just getting silly now.

The best part of that scene was how the simplest task (tying a rope to the chariot) was such a big feat for him that he needs the help of the sorceress to do it instead, right before throwing himself into space. Its like he could defeat one of the monsters, but won't until Zeus fetch him his sandals.

I often find myself walking into a progressive metal band album cover when I go out for groceries, but you made it sound like it was an unusual occurrence.
