Films, shows, whatever. Post away.

I'm yet to see anything that is worse and as a result of it better than Dune. No, not the film. That was awesome (from now on awesome means bad) but it was bloated with a lot of boring parts, and parts of it actually had the potential to be good. No, I'm talking about Frank Herbert's Dune the TV mini series. Three perfect hours badness.

The astouding thing is the consistency. A lot of bad things are best taken in small doses, but this is three hours long, and it never lets up. Just when you think it might be starting to get a tad boring they'll throw in some naked skin heads massaging body builders, or perhaps unbelievably bad CGI worms with some terrible green screen riding of them.

And the action scenes. Explosions presumably cost a lot of money, because repeated throughout the three hours is the same few second clip of an explosion that includes somebody jumping off a trampoline. There's chanting (which involves chest hitting) with knives, semi-naked wrestling matches with knives, some of the most awkward sex scenes ever, and throughout all this the only person who ham it up is about eight years old. Well maybe the baron and a few others do, but not as well as she does!

An undisputable masterpiece.

Little girl with best performance. (Contains major spoilers.)

"What is this? Some kind of midget?" (Okay that was probably deliberately funny.)

TV: There is a show on HGTV called Decorating Cents.  It was two middle-aged women from the mid-west who would show you how to decorate a room for less than $3.  They be taking stuff out of the home owners garage (like a broken blender) and putting flowers in it and say shit like, "See doesn't that BLEND in well?"  Okay so I made that part up.  But seriously they said and did shit that was even lamer than that all the time.  They had no inate sense of design, or humor and that made for great TV.

See - It's Easy!

Or you could use them as glasses! The CD would collect any spilt liqour.

Look for the trailer for a film called Future X Cops, directed by Benny Chan. 

The New Trailer Says It All. Wong Jing's FUTURE X-COPS May Be The Greatest Film Ever Made.

You don't even need to say anything, just watch it.

hey hey hey... that last one is obviously an art project.
..
the second one is amazing. It looks like a mnu from a vietnamese pho restautant.
...
the first one has to be a joke, but i think you've found our css for april fools.

EDIT: That second one is mesmerizing.  It's... like so many crazy people I've met who are obsessed with biblical geneology.
