ultranos: kino standing, staring ahead (need caffeine; this is unacceptable)
I'm beginning to think that there is something very wrong with my media choices. Either that, or I really am a masochist. About the only good movies I've seen lately are Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Dead Man's Chest and Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark (with bonus RiffTrax). Other than that, I've watched Fantastic 4 (with RiffTrax; oh god, right in the SCIENCE), Superman Returns (there is no Earth logic), Star Wars 3: Backstroke of the West (RotS Chinese bootleg with mangled subtitles for added hilarity, with RiffTrax, the entire thing becomes vaguely watchable), and all those movies from my birthday Bad Movie marathon in October. Dear god, I was ready to watch the 1999 version of Beowulf again tonight. You know, the one with the techno music during fight scenes, the hero dual-wielding repeating crossbows and a sword with a circ-saw attachment (or something), set in some post-apocalyptic place. Maybe. Okay, the movie is so bad it's awesome, much in the same way that Jesus Christ: Vampire Hunter was.

Anyway, the more I watch these things, the more I feel myself getting dumber, even with the RiffTrax and the additional snarking. Because, oh god, the bad, nonsensical, pseudo-science hurts SO BAD. It's like they lured Science into a dark alley, beat it up, stole it's lunch money, and left it in a dumpster somewhere. Please, think of the science.

Anyone got any good movie recs that won't make my brain leak out of my ears or scream/snark/throw things at the TV?
