Barnyard. My daughter and I used to go see EVERY kids movie when she was between 5 and 12 yrs. Let me tell you, I have learned to enjoy some shitastic movies. Then came Barnyard. 30 minutes in, it was so bad, I leaned over to my (then 6 years old) daughter and said “Sweetie, do you like this movie?” She looked at me with the most serious face and just said “No”.
Weirdly enough the barnyard TV show was weirdly good. Like it was bad but also kinda ok in that weird way that after awhile you stop caring that its vaguely bad and it actually ends up ok.
Yes! Battlefield Earth.
I stayed for the whole movie because I couldn’t believe how bad it was.I once took my grandfather, a retired commander of the Land Army, to watch a leftist comedy. While I liked it, he was somewhat uncomfortable, but we watched it till the end.
A couple months later, he wanted to take me to watch a documentary on the life on a wooden ship over months, maintained for historical conservation. I’m not going to say it was the biggest turd I had ever seen in my entire life, but it was a serious contender, but nonetheless I had committed myself to watch it till the end because my grandpa did the same effort for me. In the end, it was him who asked me to leave early because he was bored.
I saw Young Einstein on opening weekend…for some reason. No one left the theater but there were only about 4 of us in there to begin with.
