I ran into an old movie I had on VHS as a kid titled “MegaForce” (1982) (RT link). I hadn’t seen the movie in decades and was worried looking at a rotten tomato score of 6% that if I watched it, I would be completely disappointed in the movie as an adult. Surprisingly, I didn’t realize as a kid that it was actually more of a spoof comedy action movie like a knock-off “Hot Shots” or “Naked Gun” and just completely enjoyed watching it again because it felt like a whole new experience (definitely better than the new G.I. Joe’s lol).
So what’s your movie from your past that you’ll always enjoy no matter how cheesy or horrible it may seem?
The Flight of Dragons (1982)
I haven’t seen that since I was a kid, but I still remember this part: “Eleven! Your dragon fire melts my eyes.”
I might not even have the quote right but that’s what kid-me remembers.
Yeah, it’s a bit off, LOL. But from now on I’ll hear it your way :)
lol how true to the movie is this trailer?
The music in the trailer doesn’t fit at all. It’s way too dramatic and fast paced. And it left out a huge element of the film that wouldn’t have been a spoiler, and makes the whole trailer inaccurate.
I love this movie, but you can tell it was made with television broadcast in mind because it literally has regular fades to black where commercials would go.
I think it would be fantastic if it were remastered either with cleaned up higher-res animation or new animation altogether.
yeah I didn’t think that trailer was right so thought I would ask (was the only trailer that popped up). I did see someone uploaded the full movie on youtube so gotta check it out today!
The movie is decent, but the premise and how it plays out is why I love it. Cool ideas.
