Just something I got started thinking about. I'm done with that unmentionable movie that I will add to the list of star wars that isn't worth watching... Moving fucking oning...
Well got thinking about these kinds of movies. Those movies where they obviously didn't care about quality while making them and were concerned only with the the money.
Scooby Doo was one I was thinking of. I mean I was there when that thing was going into production. Waited eagerly for it, HUGE scooby doo nut as a kid. I mean. I didn't really OMG love scooby doo, but they showed it ALL THE FUCKING TIME on CN and even on other channels. I could never figure out why, it was a shitty show. But due to having nothing else on, I actually got brainwashed into watching it and enjoying some of it. I felt dirty watching scooby doo back then. It's awful, yet I kept watching more of it. What a waste of life... Oh the 90s...
Ghostbusters also fits this, not the classic of course. The new one that people have already AND THANKFULLY brushed under the rug despite Sony continuing to hype it online to get blu ray sales up. Fuck that movie up it's fucking ass. You failed. And you know what, the movie is a fuck it movie. It's a movie where the cast, crew, all got on set, realized the movie was going to be shit, and decided to just wing it for the whole film.
Don't you hate those movies? I do...
Other Fuck It movies:
Batman and Robin of course.... Clooney even admits it, he knew the movie was bad, but couldn't get out of his contract. O donnel was obligated to do a sequel I think... So there ya go.
Most sequels end up being Fuck It movies now that I think about it... Dragon Ball Evolution is the ultimate FUCK IT movie... Poor Chatwin, Rossum, Marsters all signed on with the highest hopes. Got to the set and read the script and then said FUCK IT easy pay check, and are to this day trying to shake the movie off and forget they did it. WE WILL NEVER FORGET.
Mario Bros, Street Fighter. Fuck it movies.
Home alone 3 is a sure as hell Fuck It movie.
What else, Robocop 2,3 and the reboot all Fuck it movies. Why do I say the reboot? I can just feel it. They knew they were climbing everest to try to remake Robocop. It's like remaking Back to the Future. Good luck chuck. They gave up on it half way through and just made a decent action movie to try to save face in the end, but it was over, they failed.
Terminator Genysis kinda is one. I say "kinda" because it honestly almost was a good terminator movie. Then they realized this shit was just fanfiction and decided to make it into nonsense, such a waste of potential. It needed a re-write or two, or a director who cared, something. You CAN make something out of the concept of an "old" terminator. This was not that film. It doesn't even make sense or fit in the franchise at all. Thank you hollywood, ya did it again.
I don't know. I'm not going to sit here for hours coming up with a list of "fuck it" films but you probably know or have seen many of them. I don't know why those movies consitently get made. They're a waste of time and money but they get busted out every so and so. Yunno what, I think I do. They sell, simple truth. Reason why Bay is making transformers again. All logic points to making them because they sell... who cares if it's good. Welcome to Hollywood!!!
I'll never accept or condone that. I'm excited about my start back in TSA because now I'm going to get money enough to buy film equipment, more music, editing, better electronics so I can get starting producing and creating films.
If some day down the line I ever become a film maker on a serious level, I'd never EVER make a "fuck it" movie. Just a waste of film, meaningless crap. It's the worst movie. One that has no investment from anyone in it, yunno. I abhor seeing those movies. Those cash in movies. Just a joke.
