Freddie Got Fingered was something I could watch again, and again, and again and still never fail to laugh at how fucking absurd it was. That was a good teenage movie for me. Best part, i dunno why, was Rip Torn throwing the skateboard at Tom Green's character's friend (comedian guy with the sideburns who was in Disney's Rocketman).

We can live like kings. WE CAN LIVE LIKE KINGS!

I forgot about another movie Ninja Assassin. I used to love the old 80's cheesy Ninja movies. This pays omage to it so well. Too bad it didn't do well. I would have loved to have seen more like this one.

I can't find enough info, but i actually liked maximum overdrive. I can't find any info on its budget, but it grossed only 7 million.

And it's still out, but I think it will be a flop... American Ultra, this film is just very very fun

Reportedly, 7 million was the line item amount in the budget for cocaine.

♥$40,000,000 (estimated)

Opening Weekend:

$38,105,077 (USA) (5 February 2010)

Add another 20,000,000 Worldwide gross to make 60.

You know what bombed movies deserved to bomb even harder? Those Atlas Shrugged movies. Even as a fan of Rand's fiction, those movies were fucking terrible.

Wait a minute. WAIT A MINUTE!
Just realized no one said Miami Connection.
Can't believe I forgot this gem.
