Gotta love the listmania

Gotta love the listmania

I just found this on Amazon's Listmania feature. I was absolutely enthralled with this series as a kid, and I only just remembered it when I saw it a few seconds ago. Good lord nostalgia is such a beautifully tragic thing. Perhaps I'll buy The Flash along with the also terrible Captain America movie.

The Captain America films (yes that's plural, there were two of them) were pretty craptacular. Reb Brown is an amazingly bad actor. They don't really hold a candle to the original Punisher movie though. Dolph Lundgren sucks hard in that one.

I assume that the two Cap movies were unrelated to each other. Surely one movie didn't warrant the other as a sequel. And the Lundgren Punisher is indeed rat shit.

Indeed...

I couldn't even get through it. It was so bad as to be past funny and out the other side to bad again.

Yes, actually, of the two Cap movies I'm talking about, one is a sequel to the other. They were both made for t.v. in '79.

Yes, the Fantastic Four movie is the worst ever, but there's a reason for that. Roger Corman had the movie rights, and they knew he wouldn't give them up without making a movie first. So they gave him $2M to make his movie. Think about that... an FF movie should be BIG BUDGET in the greatest sense of the term. Special effects out the wazoo! Now granted, this movie was made in 1991, but still... $2M ain't shit. The movie was NEVER meant to be released. They just let him make it so they could get the rights to it to make a real movie version of the FF.
