Movie night?

[boostup4beetbuster]

So! I got myself a streaming account so I could watch horrible movies and the occasional sappy Korean drama, and I found a really awful one--movie, not drama. I like my shows, okay?

Anyway, it's based off some American cartoon, and everything about it is bad. The villain overacts, the sister can't act, the grandfather clearly doesn't want to be there, all of the adults in the movie are stupid as hell, and you wonder why the hero kid hasn't just turned evil on them--or, now that I think about it, I think the villain might actually have been an evil future version of him. The writing was so bad I couldn't tell.

And because of that movie being so bad it was awesome, I thought, hey, why not do a shitty movie night? We'll set up somewhere--doesn't have to be the Mysterious Library or anything; so long as we've got room to sit and watch this crap, it's fine--put on a show, and enjoy something stupid. You know, something to help when our lives start getting shitty. And I'll make sure it doesn't conflict with Homework Club or whatever, 'cause seriously, kids, do your homework.

Thoughts? Movie suggestions?

Bad movies are good?

[boostup4beetbuster]

Some of them are. Sometimes everything goes wrong in a way that it's hilarious.

[yes_im_kawaii]

Weird. I dunno about this.

[boostup4beetbuster]

It's fun, trust me.

[yes_im_kawaii]

Fine. Maybe. Is there gonna be food?

[boostup4beetbuster]

It's not a movie night if you don't have popcorn.

[yes_im_kawaii]

Really?

[boostup4beetbuster]

Of course. If it's not a law, it should be.

...And not one of those rules you're supposed to break, mind you. But an ironclad one.

[yes_im_kawaii]

What else do you eat?

[boostup4beetbuster]

Just about anything as long as you can carry it in your lap. Nachos, ice cream, candy--stuff like that.

[yes_im_kawaii]

I want everything.

[boostup4beetbuster]

Sounds like a plan to me!

[yes_im_kawaii]

This is fun. Even if I feel like something's missing, I like living with you guys.

[boostup4beetbuster]

We like having you, so as long as you're happy, we're glad you're calling it home.

[yes_im_kawaii]

Auu... Thank you.

[boostup4beetbuster]

You're welcome.

[yes_im_kawaii]

How many people are we gonna have watching the movies?

[boostup4beetbuster]

No idea, but it always helps to make extra popcorn.

[yes_im_kawaii]

Okay!

[notmynature]

Uh, what about people who can't leave their world? Are we just shit out of luck?

[Any kind of movie would be cool.]

[boostup4beetbuster]

Think I should be able to stream it across the community to anyone who wants.

[notmynature]

Sounds cool. I'm in, if I can get away.

So, what's the movie again?

[boostup4beetbuster]

The one I've got right now is a sci-fi kids' movie called Race Against Time, but I'm open to hearing about any worse movies.

[notmynature]

Sorry, I'm not going to be much help. Movie's aren't really a big thing here.

[boostup4beetbuster]

I'll have to make sure to treat you to the best of the worst, then. The fun comes from complaining about it.

[notmynature]

You know, since I don't really have a lot to compare it to, I just might like it. [She likes bad puns so it's possible.]

I mean, how bad can it be?

[boostup4beetbuster]

[Oh god, don't encourage him]

There are a LOT of terrible movies out there.

[notmynature]

Yeah? Like what?

[Encouraged.]

[boostup4beetbuster]

Some of the best horrible ones are from America: Manos the Hands of Fate, Plan 9 From Outer Space, The Room... It's an art form, almost.

[notmynature]

How were the Plans 1-8? Did it just get bad with 9?

[boostup4beetbuster]

Yeah, they never explained what happened with the first eight plans.

[notmynature]

They probably failed, or you wouldn't need a 9. So, they were worse than a really bad movie. We should watch one of them.

[boostup4beetbuster]

I should really see if they have them.

[notmynature]

You ever watch good movies?

[boostup4beetbuster]

A few. But the terrible ones are more fun.

[notmynature]

If I don't get to watch many, I kinda wanna watch a good one, too.

[boostup4beetbuster]

Good point. What kind of genre do you think you'd like?

[notmynature]

I dunno...comedy, I guess. I like funny stuff.

[boostup4beetbuster]

Oh, there's plenty of that.

[notmynature]

What's the best one?

[boostup4beetbuster]

As far as Western stuff goes, you can't go wrong with Monty Python or Mel Brooks. Humor's a little different between them, but they're laugh riots.

[notmynature]

Westerns? Cowboys are cool and stuff but what does it have to do with comedy?

[boostup4beetbuster]

Sorry, I meant Western Hemisphere--I'm from Japan, so I'm used to thinking of things that way. Though, Blazing Saddles is a great cowboy comedy.

[notmynature]

[She nods in sudden understanding.] Oh...okay. I got it.

Are Japanese movies pretty good? Guess I wouldn't understand them though.

[boostup4beetbuster]

We're good at horror movies.

[notmynature]

I kinda get that here. Will you tell me when you watch a comedy?

[boostup4beetbuster]

Oh, definitely.

[notmynature]

[She smiles, looking forward to it.]

Thanks.
