Confirmation of on set drinking whilst commiserating over the shitshow during production:

"Bob used to get special whiskey sent from England—single malts—and we would drink those copiously in his caravan." - Fiona Shaw (Lena)

It's my favorite terrible movie.

I don't even think it's terrible. Just really weird.

I haven’t seen it since it first came out when I was just a little angryseal. You fine folks have convinced me that I need to see it again.

I loved all the video game movies as a kid. Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, Mario. I loved all the cheesy cartoons too. You guys talk like little kid me missed something here.

Oh, and for fun because I can’t bring it up without doing it.

MWORTAL KAWMBAAAAT! Deet deet deet doot doot deet

I had the same experience on my first watch through. I was just angry that I didn't get anything like a reasonable Mario's Brothers movie.

It was a rewatch when I discovered how badassly awesome the film is.

I think I was watching it with a friend, on a dare, to see who could tolerate more. Or maybe it was just a weird re-run night where nothing else was on. Or both.
