Kung pow enter the fist. Screw what the critics and rotten tomatoes score says. The movie is goated!

The Taco Bell jingle has lived rent free in my head for 20 years now

Kung pow and Friday are the 2 movies that I can fully quote in my head. I’m sure if I get Alzheimer’s I will still be able to quote them.

Either my wife or I will bust out "Bye, Felicia" at least once a week.

rotten tomatoes is the worst indicator of whether a movie is any good, and "critics" are talking out their asses 100% of the time.

You have to know how to use it. I know 80% audience and 40% critics will probably be a fun and interesting watch, but 70% critics and 80% audience will be a generic, well made but predictable movie that I'll find boring. 95% critics 20% audience is arty and need to be in the right mood for. Etc.

You know, this thread kinda has me thinking. Younger people these days will never know what it's like to just watch a movie and make up your own mind about it. Every movie is the best thing ever or a pile of garbage and you haven't even seen the trailer yet.

Isn’t Betty a girls name?

I hated that movie so much, it also just feels really racist at this point

This is one of my absolute favorites!

"Haha, I'm bleeding, making me the victor"

I quote this movie weekly at least, often with sound effects that make people think I'm crazy. Love this live action cartoon.
