They were great movies no doubt but they weren't written like cinematic masterpieces though and were still good.All deez shyts are classics!!! :
You know a movie like Talledega Nights wasn't supposed to be good which is a testimony to how good it was.
No they were all good, they just weren't supposed to be.
The title of the thread is movies so bad they were good.
Short circuit for example a military robot that really becomes human. That movie sounds trash on paper until you watch it and you're like...
So you’re telling me big trouble in little China, a movie directed by john carpenter and written by WD Richter, produced by fox, released at the height of Carpenters powers, starring Kurt Russell wasn’t supposed to be good?No they were all good, they just weren't supposed to be.

Nah it wasn't it just worked though.
I wasn't really feeling They Live and Starman anywhere near to that degree and they were Carpenter movies too.
Plenty of good directors and actors have flops and movies not received as well.
Big Trouble Little China was great though. One of the few movies I can watch over and over.
Been lol there’s no way in hell I believe that movie wasn’t supposed to be good. I’ve listened to john talk about that movie. I know how much it means to him. How much work they put in in it and how blown everyone was when it tanked. They didn’t make that movie as a lark
Okay. My bad.No they were all good, they just weren't supposed to be.

Title suggests otherwise
Movies that Looked bad but ended up being Good is more like it
It’s not even that. It’s movies that are “bad” but good. A movie like street fighter is the perfect example. It misses the mark as to what it’s trying to do, everyone is acting like they’re in different movies, guile is played my van damme, and it has a scene where a fight between Honda and Zangief has Godzilla sound effects. Yet it’s entertaining as hell in spite of itself.
Big trouble went for a specific tone and flavor and accomplished all of that. Same with Taladega Nights
Only The Strong
Ex-Special Forces soldier Louis Stevens returns to Miami to find his former high school overrun by drugs and violence. A master of the Brazilian martial art, capoeira, Stevens pledges to straighten out a dozen of the school's worst students by teaching them this demanding and highly-disciplined fighting style. Slowly, his program begins to work, giving the students new hope and purpose. But the local drug lord, himself a martial arts expert, vows to stop Stevens' positive influence. Now Stevens must fight to save his own life, as well as the lives of his rebellious young students.
It's actually one of my favorite movies of all time.
Timing and knowing your audience is everything though.
The timing might not have been right for it, I've seen good movies released at the same time as other good movies that bomb due to one having a star cast or better advertising or something of that nature.
I would have liked to have seen Carpenter make an Escape from New York trilogy as well.
I’m not a big fan of escape from LA but yeah I agree. I know ghost of Mars started as a third Snake movie

It's easier to pick the old movies cause most of them were cheese. Especially the horror movies
I just love going down memory lane with these
