Stonehenge Apocalypse  
Yesterday I finally got around to watch Stonehenge Apocalypse with a couple of friends. Knowing that we would most likely not be able to survive the badness of this film each on our own, we'd decided to meet up, get Chinese takeout and point and laugh at the film together. Wise choice. Because the film is so bad. You have to actually see it just to grasp how bad it truly is. No review could have prepared me for this. Oh Misha. Speaking of Misha, here's a few theories why he agreed to be in this film:

  • Supernatural pays him so little the poor guy was starving and living in a flat without heating. Hanging on to dear life, he had to take the money SyFy was offering.
  • He did this film out of boredom on the weekends because they promised him he could also do the computer animations.
  • He agreed because he finally got to wear clothes in a film that are similar to his regular clothes.

  • All of the above.

    I'm quite impressed that he managed to say his lines with a straight face, really.

    And here's a fun theory: half of Torri Higginson's lines were actually from old SGA's scripts so she didn't have to memorise new ones and attempt a British accent. Or whatever that was supposed to be.

    Anyway, FUN TIMES.


    To regain our brain cells and to end the evening with a wonderful, smart film [livejournal.com profile] elli and I then watched City of Ember. I love this film. It's amazing.

    We watched it too, apart from the ending because the Dowager Countess always knows when to telephone. :\

    It wasn't that bad. They actually called the school a "primary" school and not a high school. "Salisbury Plain Primary School," okay, but somebody did some research somewhere along the line. And we particularly liked the detail of all those pyramids intricately opening up just before they blew themselves to shrapnel turning into volcanoes. All that was missing was the statues on Easter Island getting up and doing the macarena.

    Did they? Well, then they probably stopped at some point before they got to British English spelling: Signs with "No unauthorized personnel beyond this point" or sth. like that...right.

    It would have been a nice way to end the movie, yes:-) But maybe we'll get that in the sequel...

    I love this movie so much!! It's like a 250,000 word crossover epic on Fanfiction.net played by the fantasy cast for the story. XD

    That sounds hilarious. I should get some people together to have a Bad Taste Film Fest, like some people do.
