QPD, but if you go to the IMDB page for this movie and check out the boards, the apologists are out in full force.

To summarize:

"You're too young to get this movie."

"This movie was too deep for the general audience."

"This movie was intended to be a B-movie."

Enjoy...

Can we call it THE CRAPPENING?  Or has that already been thought up?  If not, you heard it from me first!

Oh, I see.  We're all just too dumb to realize that his movie was SUPPOSED to suck.

I feel like that review was so thorough, Gil took me from not wanting to see it, to desperately wanting to see it, to sparing me the agony of going to see it.  Thanks, Gil.

There was no way that this movie wasn't made as a joke.  Marky Mark is a fairly decent actor, I think, but he was blatantly saying his lines like a tard.  It was weird.

Hey, chicken. How's it hangin'? A lot of people wanna eat you, but I just wanna talk to you, okay? We should do a film together, whaddya think? Hey, chicken, I'm not joking around, okay? This is the real thing, I mean this could be huge! All right, well, think about it. Say "hi" to your mother for me, alright? Now I'm gonna talk to a goat.
"So, this old man comes over to us and starts ragging on us to get down from there and really not being mean. Well, being a drunk gnome, I started yelling at teh guy... like really loudly."
