Same story. Awful special effects and a Lord of the Rings rip-off but still one of my favorites.
Babywiththepower: Willow is a LotR rip-off? How is that exactly? It's a fantasy movie with little people? If anything, it watches more like a D&D campaign than coming anywhere near feeling like a LotR Redux.
But I will agree that it's a great flick. I fell in love with Sorsha. My love for her wasn't replaced until I saw Saffron.
Well, yes I didnt really think it was a rip-off either but thats what the main criticism was so I was really just repeating that--should have made it clearer. For the record, I thought the special effects were wonderful too when I was a kid but they sure aint now.
Glad to see that there is another fan out there: Joanne Whalley Kilmer was excellent (You clearly have a thing for redheads) but Val was always the main attraction for me!
By the way Kinetic, I am with you on Labyrinth--My sisters and I still quote it regularly, including "No good, *sniff*, can't hear you"

Hey, figured ya'll might like to know.... Firefly being a Joss project and all, but for some reason while I was talking to my brother it popped up in my head that the movie that I mentioned before "Psycho Beach Party" may have had Xander in it from Buffy. I was never a buffy fan, but I've caught a few eps of that and Angel and Charmed on TBS when nothing was on and it just kinda clicked in my head while I was talking to him. My bro said he has a twin so it might have been his twin if it wasn't him. I just checked on IMDB and it is the same guy who played Xander, and also Lauren Ambrose from 6 Feet Under is the other main character.
I just thought that little nugget might get a few people in here to watch that excruciatingly bad but embarrassingly fun and enjoyable flick and tell me that I have awesome taste in crap cinema.

Didn't mean to embarrass, but see how many mentioned it on the hated movies list! 
This movie had some great lines.
I wanna name her Dottie after my wife. She's a vicious life-sucking bitch from which there is no escape.- about the asteroid
I know the presidents' chief advisor, we were at MIT together. And, at this point in time, you really don't want to take advice from a man who got a C minus in astrophysics.
The whole conversation about what they want in exchange for doing the job. Crap, I gotta go watch it now!
Here's a cheese movie for ya- Freeway!

Oh, and pretty much anything else 'USA Up All Night'
I was like thirteen and it had Rhonda Shear as the hostess (from '91 to '98), and for anyone who knows who she is knows she was enough to make a thirteen year old watch craptacular movies. Up All Night wasn't all that bad even when Gilbert Gottfried hosted, but I missed Rhonda.

Dude yeah....
Up all night was the shit. That's what I'm talking about. Zapped again...... Vice Acadamy I, II, III (I hear there's six now lol).....
How about "Weird Science"? Or "Bachleor Party" back when Tom Hanks was funny, relatively unknown, and still trying to convince the public that he wasn't really a cross dresser in real life?
Funny how in the end Tom did such a much more impressive job of that than Lenord Nemoy did convincing the sheep that he really wasn't a Klingon.
Just for laughs, check out Mr. Nemoy's pre-MTV music video entitled "The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins". From what I hear his true love really was music. If you haven't heard it, it's a shame. I was hoping it would be the LOTR theme song..... sigh...
Here's hoping that it's the theme to "The Hobbit"!
BTW... can't remember who mentioned "Demon Knight" but i actually saw that with friends about 6 times at the dollar theatre by me in highschool. I threw a fit when the old lady working there one night wouldn't let us in to see it because we were too young.
EDIT: Man... watching that vid now again and there really are some nice looking girls on there. Too bad they're all older than my grandma now.
EDITEDIT: HA! C minus in astrophysics!

Hey - I'm all over Big Trouble in Little China! Good cheesy fun.
Others...
Flash Gordon - although, I just can't classify it as actually *bad*. The costumes... the music...
Caveman - Ringo Starr, Dennis Quaid, and Shelley Long speaking in grunts. Bad effects, stoned dinsosaurs, a vocabulary of like 20 words. I love this movie!
And does anyone even know this one? Skatetown USA (Skate-tooooown!! goin' round and round...) Patrick Swayze's finest acting EVER!

Now everybody thinks the film adaption of the sci-fi video game of Wing Commander is really crap but I love it don't care what other people think its in my top 15 films of all time so everybody go & buy it.
Plus the incredible main theme which rivals even Serenity's is done by none other than David Arnold the man responsible for OST's for WIng Commander, Stargate(film & the legendary main theme), Godzilla, Independence Day, Tomorrow Never Dies, THe World Is Not Enough, Casino Royale(my fav OST), & Hot Fuzz
