Movies nobody has ever referenced since they were released

[nasty twp]

It's like 5 hours. The average person isn't watching anything over 2.

Wings Of Desire is two hours, and that one still goes on too long and says all it needs to at a glacial depressing pace. Wenders could have left it at that tbh.

I've been living in a hole apparently. How could of I missed all this golden cinema?

More like cop and a half person.

A cop and 3/5ths.

That tagline is so fucking cliche lol, it's like a parody. It's not even fucking funny.

I saw this in the video store, and wanted to rent it coz it had some of the kids from little rascals. My dad said no.

This is a pretty decent Australian comedy that I would be very surprised if anyone on here had heard of.

These are literally the only posts that fit what OP was going for.
You guys just keep posting famous movies that you watched once.

 

[The Talking Dead]

Crash is an obvious one. It was so big when it came out, think it even won the academy award for best picture, and now you never see it mentioned anywhere.

There's a movie called Safe Guys with Sam Rockwell and Steve Zahn that nobody in the world has seen except for me and my ex. It's hilarious and we used to reference it a lot.

There's a Canadian movie called Weirdsville that again, no one has seen and is hilarious.

There's a movie called 50 Pills that no one has seen and is hilarious. Michael Pena is in it, Kristen Bell is in it, the Michael Jackson looking son from Nip/Tuck is also in it.

Grand Theft Parsons is a movie that only my dad and I have seen. Which is odd because it stars Johnny Knoxville Michael Shannon and Christina Applegate. It's hilarious. It's about Gram Parsons' tour manager stealing his dead body.

Operation Dumbo Drop. Elephant movie with Danny Glover, Denis Leary and Ray Liotta.

Larger Than Life. Elephant movie with Bill Murray.

I had a bunch more and I just forgot them.

Grand Theft Parsons is still Knoxville's best film. One of the only times he proved he can act.

Dumbo Drop is mindless but better than most kids films. Larger Than Life is a little better, but pre-Lost In Translation Murray couldn't catch a break.

My lost film was a straight to vid that I found in a little rubbish store of used items, a DVD called The Others. It's NOT the horror movie with Nicole Kidman - it's a no name indy film that was marketed as a rental exclusive (you lads had a Hollywood Video in the states? I think that was the sticker on it, God knows how it ended up in Germany). Anyway, it's about a guy in high school about to graduate who is also in a band - and that's basically it. It's the last days leading up to graduation for him, and it's one of those aimless SLC Punk-esque kind of films during the end of the independent film Renaissance of the 90's. And short of the guy who played Barney Miller as the principal (should've been you, @TheGhostOfAbeVigoda!) it's full of nobodies.

I'm sure if Kevin Smith watched it, he'd fucking cry, though. Nonce.

I was going to post this one. It's the laziest shit ever, two actors from popular teen movies of the time, in a movie about an unpopular high school kid, with the most un-creative title ever. Even AI could generate something more original. And of course they're wearing the most fleeting early 2000's fashion too. I think the only thing notable about this movie is that clips of it were featured in the Teenage Dirtbag music video.

Yes, you do. It's mentioned all the time as the worst Best Picture winner.

 

[DanFielding]

Not a bad movie but it was a major bomb and is now a forgotten footnote in both of its stars careers.

 

[BigBeanFatty]

Never seen it but Paris, Texas and Until The End if the World are well-paced.

I never knew Crash had a TV spinoff until relatively recently.

 

[UnPRePared]

I could name any random PRC/Monogram film from the 30's and 40's, and short of Detour or the poverty row Charlie Chan films, none of them would ring a bell with you lads.

Which is a shame, because some are quite good. Most are shit, but some aren't.

 

[TheGhostOfAbeVigoda]

I didn’t think anyone else knew about Radio Flyer till @TheGhostOfAbeVigoda ralked about it on here.

Radio Flyer is so fucking sad and heavy for a kid's movie. I don't know why my dad bought it for me or why I watched it like a thousand times.

I remember watching that once in a hotel just because nothing else was on. And I was drunk.

Once it ended, I felt broken and wondered how many kids got traumatized by that film.

Though to be fair, some days I want to put my brother Steve in a red wagon and push him off a cliff, too.

Do you think the brother actually flew away in the Radio Flyer or do you think Tom Hanks was a traumatized freak in denial who was telling his kids the story of how he basically helped his brother commit suicide as a boy so he'd stop being constantly beaten by their loser mother's piece of shit boyfriend?

The mom (Dr. Melfi, Kaaaaren) was supposed to be a good guy in the movie but it's literally entirely her fault that she's letting some drunk fuck beat her kid up all the time. Shane the dog is the only hero in that fucking movie.

Oh he murdered his brother, and his own kids realized it and are now afraid Tom Hanks will kill them if they ever call him on it. Probably Statute of limitations, so the police won't fucking do a thing. Those kids are on borrowed time.

This actually wasn't that bad. It's better than Joe's Apartment.
