Hackers. Till the day I die…

Evolution.

Dude, Where's My Car? is so much better than it had any right to be. And while the main characters are stoners, most of the humor isn't stoner humor. Not that there's anything wrong with stoner humor, but movies that consist entirely of stoner humor tend to drag after a while.

I will die on the hill that Kung fury is peak cinema

Last Action Hero. I know the editing is pretty bad and the rhythm is a bit messed up in the last part but it's the most meta movie ever and an homage/parody to classic action movies. Having Arnold play the main part is the cherry on top.

Rubber. An anthropomorphic car tire. If that doesn't describe a masterclass in directing I don't know what does.

The cable guy. Scary Jim Carey is scary. And the ending was visionary.

Tremors 2 is peak cinema IMHO. I only wish they had spent a little more on the CGI, or replaced it all with practical effects.

The Last Starfighter is not a shitty movie. Now go back to sleep, Louis, before I tell ma about your Playboys.

Killer Klowns From Outer Space needs no defending. It's just a terrible great time.

Big Trouble in Little China

Treasure Planet. There's weird plot choices, but I loved the mixed animation, the music, the characters.

An actually bad but amazing movie would be Miami Connection. Karate rock band sings about friendship fights motorcycle drug ninjas. Fuck yeah bro.

Kung pow enter the fist. Screw what the critics and rotten tomatoes score says. The movie is goated!

PCU

No war but class war.

The Adventures of Baron Munchausen and/or Time Bandits.

Chronicles of Riddick. Not sure it's considered a "bad" movie, but I definitely like it more than most. Just a crazy entertaining world and system they build in a short 2 hour long movie.

BIODOME

Flight of the Navigator

I unironically love Armageddon and The Core. Yes, they're both stupid and unrealistic movies, but that works in their favor about as often as against. Something about the way they play with the core concepts makes me love them.

I unironically enjoy the old 2005 Fantastic 4 movie. It was cheesy as fuck, I don't deny that. But it was fun. And the comics themselves can be as bad or worse sometimes.

Also I like Julian McMahon.

Also also, Chris Evans towel scene.

Hudson Hawk. Criminally underrated.

Mine's gotta be "The Brothers Grimm" starring Matt Damon and Heath Ledger. It's the same camp vibe as the "Van Helsing" movie starring Hugh Jackman, but there's no badass super hero to save the day - there's just a bunch of imperfect people trying their best, and it's almost entirely by luck or destiny that they snatch victory from the clutches of defeat. It's also one of the most morbid depictions of childish horror i've seen on-screen, where it gives no fucks about being realistic.

Dredd (2012) is a near perfect 80s/90's style, over the top action movie made 25 years too late.

Well shot action scenes.

Excellent soundtrack.

Pretty darn well paced.

Good helping of action hero one liners.

Plot is simple enough for idiot, explosion go boom, brain to follow, but also takes itself seriously enough to present the horrors of its world via interactions with minor characters.

Karl Urban manages to do more acting with only his mouth and chin, and line delivery, than many other actors do with their whole face.

Olivia Thirlby is also very, very good, I do not understand why some other director has not cast her in an action oriented role since... now that Nintendo seems to actually allow their IP in films: Make her blonde again and she is Samus Aran.

EDIT:

In case you haven't seen it... this is a bit spoilery, but here's a decent 4 minute representative sample to give you an impression of the movie.

Aeonflux, except I don't actually bother trying to defend it.

Death to Smoochy

“Who Framed Roger Rabbit”.

An absolute masterpiece in terms of blending and transitioning between live action and animation; plus the whole Disney/Warner Bros character crossovers.. just 👌🏼

Titan A.E. Is a masterpiece.

Buckaroo Banzai

Reign of Fire.

Six String Samurai. It's not good. But it's soooo quotable!

Nice shoes. Nice shoes to DIE in!

Crank."5mls? no 0.5mls! Elevator explodes"

Peak ADHD movie

Okay, I've got one that no one has mentioned.

Space Truckers.

Without clicking the link, just imagine what it might be.

Hot Rod! I can quote pretty much the whole movie. It’s such a fun ride.

The Core. The perfect dumb movie that's fun to watch.

Congo? Congo...

Ice Pirates (1984): A bunch of A-Listers before they were big. Great practical effects. Spaceships, Pirates, Time Travel, 'robots' It was magnificent.

Close second: The Cat from Outer Space (1978). It was a Disney flick, but really great for the time.
