Highs and lows

Announcements, Ramblings

10,000 BC is the worst movie ever. Ever. Worse than Congo. And that, my friends, is pretty f**king bad.

I’m going to see folk/country legend Emmylou Harris perform at the Orpheum in Vancouver on July 23rd. I’m a fan, and I figure it’s a once-in-a-lifetime event. Harris’s Wrecking Ball, shepherded by uber-producer Daniel Lanois, is one of my all-time favorite albums. (Trivia: those of you who watch Battlestar Galactica would recognize the Orpheum. It’s the “Opera House” in President Roslin’s dreams.)

I don’t want to return to Vancouver tomorrow. Life in The Hidden Valley is so peaceful, and it will be another two months before I can return. I enjoy looking up at the night sky and actually being able to see stars. (A rarity in the city.) But I have to work on Wednesday and Thursday; and so onto the plane I must go.

    I refuse to see anything by the team that created INDEPENDENCE DAY because that was a festering piece of shit and everything they touch, by default, becomes a festering piece of shit.

    But, for me, the worst movie EVER will always be the Dan Akroyd/Chevy Chase/Demi Moore stinker, NOTHING BUT TROUBLE. This movie actually gives me physical pain. A couple of times, I’ve come across it on TV (after having originally seen it at the theater) and I’ve watched a bit, thinking, “It can’t be as bad as I remember.” And it’s always WORSE than I remember. It remains the stinky bar to which I hold all other bad movies. I keep hearing, though, that THE HAPPENING might even beat NOTHING BUT TROUBLE.

    I dunno. CONGO made me laugh. I think it was the exploding monkeys. That’ll get me every time.

    10,000 BC was really bad. But my vote for worst movie ever still goes to House of Sand and Fog.

    Did I not warn you about 10,000 BC?

    Worst movie though: Dracula 3000 tied with Witchboard III: The Possession

    At least 10,000 BC occasionally had some stunning special effects. Dracula 3000 had Coolio in it. You can’t get much worse than that.

    It’s a good thing I read this post because just the other night, after seeing commercials for this, I told my parents we should rent it.
