Someone more crazy fan than me!

Got "Bounce" yesterday. Shitty name for an album, but it sounds ok so far. First two or three songs are rockers, but I'm a bit concerned at the following three slow tracks. Slow tracks suck arse, unless they're done really well.

I haven't got any further than that yet.

Yesterday I saw Hart's War, and it cost me $2. Bleeugh!

YES. THEY. ARE. One of the best bands of all time!

And Winmar, I thought the same, the slow tracks are a bit of a downer, most of them anyway, theres a couple of good ones

Oh no I've become that predictable .......then again seen as I made a comment when it happened I guess it was invetable it would happen.

Yes people the movie is cool for the mere fact that it is so silly and was made to be that way.

I wouldn't call it a B movie though. To me, whether or not a film is B grade depends on the budget and production rather than the whether its good or stupid or whatever hehe. I think most B movies are way better than A grade films to be honest, but I wouldn't call something with a big budget B grade no matter how silly it is.

I didn't say it was, Southy!

Didn't Alice Cooper used to love what he called Zgrade movies so much he had some playing during some of his earlier shows?

 

[TRrEiTxIxRiE DTrash]

Probably

I love z-grade films personally. I think they are great. They are on such a low low budget but the director's are trying really hard to make a great film. In a lot of ways I think they succeed alot of the time too. They manage to create a really cool atmosphere, and also get some really nice images, and I love the unknown actors and the 16mm picture quality.

Fiend is one that I highly recommend The special effects are dreadful and the acting is extremely amateur but the film has a great atmosphere I think and I love the camerawork. It's really surreal.

 

[weetbix]

What grade would you call "Plan 9 From Outta Space"?

I saw that once and it was sooooo bad it was worth watching for the surrealness of them actually releasing the thing to the public

 

[TRrEiTxIxRiE DTrash]

Hahahaha!

That is the most classic example of z-grade ever. It's brilliant!

Bela Lugosi was top billed as the main star of the film, but he wasn't in it. Edward Wood the director attached a piece of home footage of him to the start of the movie and then someone else walked around for the rest of the film as his character and covered his face hahahha!

 

[Spiff]

He WAS in it, but he died during the making of it and so there wasn't much original footage of him.

Independance Day is a b grade movie on a big budget!

 

[Spiff]

I think B grade is more about attitude than budget.

 

[TRrEiTxIxRiE DTrash]

Independence Day is just a really shocking A-grade movie lol. And The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is a really brilliant B-grade film. Hehehe. B movies rule.

I kinda agree actually Spiffy, but I think it's to do with budget as well. But attitude does have something to do with it. I still wouldn't call anything made in Hollywood with a big budget and big name actors B-grade. Those are the things which define what people consider to be A grade.
