    Tremors 2 is peak cinema IMHO. I only wish they had spent a little more on the CGI, or replaced it all with practical effects.

    Dude, Where’s My Car? is so much better than it had any right to be. And while the main characters are stoners, most of the humor isn’t stoner humor. Not that there’s anything wrong with stoner humor, but movies that consist entirely of stoner humor tend to drag after a while.

      We got free tickets to DWmC after Shaft burned in a slow dialogue scene. So we saw this for free.

      I’m reminded of the reviewer differences between this and The Emperor’s New Groove when I mention we still wanted a refund.

      I can’t like that movie because it was so insulting for the culture at the time. Tacky and stupid. No self respecting 90s technology person respects that movie.

    I just rewatched Earth Girls are Easy last week and that’d be on my list.

    90 minutes of prime Gina Davis in a bikini doesn’t hurt either.

      Fantastic movie! When I was single, a woman’s response to it was something I’d use to gauge compatibility. Mind you, they didn’t have to like it.

    Interstate 60 - a cute quirky B movie with some hella famous actors. Gary Oldman, Christopher Lloyd, Michael J Fox, James Maraden, Chris Cooper, Amy Smart, Kurt Russell. It is a fun and imaginative ride along a made up highway. My favorite scene was the town of Morelaw.

    Big Trouble - a great movie shut down by circumstance. It was set for release in late 2001, the end of the movie involves hijacking a plane with a nuclear bomb, but then 9/11 happened so they sent it straight to video and stopped advertising it. Based on a Dave Barry novel, it’s a hilarious story involving a crazy cast of characters you may meet in Florida. Another star studded cast including Tim Allen, The Tooch, Martha Stewart, Janine Garofalo, Zoey Deschanel, Omar Epps, Jason Lee, Johnny Knoxville, and many more.

    I have only met a couple people ever who have seen either of these movies.
