Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bang

Hilariously dry comedy with the late Val Kilmore as a sassy gay man. Every other movie I wanted to suggest was already posted here. These are all great choices!

Definitely wacky cartoons like Adventures of Sonic The Hedgehog or maybe season 1 of Reboot (part way through season 2, so I don't know whether the rest of the seasons are as light hearted as season 1), both shows you can laugh at the obsurdities of it all and in Reboots case laugh at the very outdated animation.

This is basically the entire point of the fast and furious series.

Anything where the plot literally does not matter so you don't necessarily need to pay attention to it to have fun. Like a lot of comedies or action movies.

Didn’t see it and it deserves to be named:

Shoot ‘Em Up

One reviewer called it “the closest thing to a live action Bugs Bunny movie we’ll ever get!”

I've seen Team America: World Police on a festival in The Netherlands in a big tent with everybody drinking beer and smoking weed. That type of film is made for that environment. Theres something about watching it with a big group of mellowed out festival goeers thats incomparable.

'Mat Damon' and 'Mohammed Jihad' had my wife in tears.

That puking scene man. Alone behing my tv I would've tuned out but in that setting...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Uhh I'm more interested in this weed and beer festival, there another one happening?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago) (1 children)

Well festivals are like our national sport, theres hundreds during the year. The weed thing is not criminalized and the beers is for sale.

This particular festival was Lowlands, but theres Pinkpop, Down the Rabbit hole, Best Kept Secret and many others where you might partake.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 12 hours ago

Interesting. Thank you thank you

Fully expecting flak for this, but Uwe Boll's Postal. It's a gross, idiotic movie with awful taste, and it's not so much that it hasn't aged well, it's more that it was made awful on purpose. that's also what makes it perfect for schlock movie night.

if you've played any of the Postal games, you know what to expect in terms of tone. if you haven't: GOOD. Don't.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Stop..

You had me at Uwe Boll's

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 hours ago

it's one of his worst! he plays himself in it, but as a pedo. no, i don't know why he would do that.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 17 hours ago

Letterkenny, lot of quotable dialog between the characters, unexpectedly witty considering the backdrop of a small Canadian hick town.

Trailer Park Boys - para documentary comedy series showing life of people living in a trailer park

So dumb but sooo funny. I love that show.

RiffTrax. Especially the Star Wars prequels and the Twilight trilogy.

The Evil Dead trilogy.

A younger friend of mine had started playing the Evil Dead game with some of his friends but had never seen the movies. I'd not watched them in years, so I invited him over to marathon them one weekend. We drank, ate pizza and did the whole trilogy, and we had an absolute blast. He loved how different each movie was, especially Heart of Darkness. How each one gets sillier than the last.

A few months later, Evil Dead Rise came out in the cinema, so we had to go see it. While this was much more a straight up horror movie (with a small amount of the Evil Dead silliness), I still enjoyed it (I find horror movies quite funny, like an emotional rollercoaster), but he was hiding behind his coat the whole time, terrified of what was happening on screen. That made it even funnier for me.

Garth Marenghi's dark place, rifftrax/mst3k, Young Frankenstein, duck soup, Joe Bob's has a bunch of shlocky horror movies mixed in with classics they do intros and interrupts like the old public access/cable monster movies

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

The Fast and the Furious series.

So dumb. So macho. So entertaining.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 17 hours ago

I suppose the Minecraft Movie fits here.

[–] [email protected] 34 points 1 day ago (6 children)

Kung Pao Enter the Fist. Warning: you must be immature and somewhat comfortable with jokes that might not have aged well. I haven't watched it since I was a teen, but I remember thinking it was hilarious back then...

Maybe just stick with Space Balls and The Room.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 19 hours ago

You go that way. I'll go home.

Tucker and Dale vs evil is a over the top gory comedy slasher and I loved it when I watched it as a teen. It may not have aged well though

Other fan favorites are zoolander and tropic thunder

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago

I love Iron Sky for this. Nazis on the moon. It's satire all the way through. Such a goofy film but a lot of fun.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Nudist Colony of the Dead is awful and fantastic at the same time. I love getting a friend to go into the movie blind.

Tap for spoilerIt's fucking hilarious watching someone slowly realize that they're watching a super low budget movie musical that's a musical about a bunch of religious types getting murdered by 'nudist' zombies (that basically have the equivalent of fig leaf clothing).

The day I got my best bud fucking blazed out of his mind to watch it has to be one of my favorite experiences.

Hot Fuzz is plain stupid but so fun. So is Taxi Taxi, if you've never seen it.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 18 hours ago

hot fuzz is not plain stupid, it's advanced stupid. it's a dumb movie made by really intelligent people.

  • Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975)
  • Battle Beyond the Stars (1980)
  • Time Bandits (1981)
  • The Dark Crystal (1982)
  • Krull (1983)
  • Brazil (1985)

Any one of these are both campy and thought provoking.
