I've just purchased BATTLEFIELD EARTH

You are a douche.

You should get alcohol poisoning and DIE!

Just don't fill out the little card inside, otherwise a group of Scientologists will show up at your house to audit your Thetans in order to prepare you for the grand enunciation of Xenu.

God I wish I was joking

So..are you going to down a shot every time
Travolta laughs in this film?


Har, har, har, har...

Personal experience?

Are you kidding?!?! This is a great bad movie. It really is one of the worst. It's so bad it's fun. Sitting there watching this piece of shit over and over is such a surreal experience. Of course, I have to tilt my head sideways a bit to be able to watch those fucked up angle shots. I saw this in the theater the second week and I was the only one in there. It was awesome.

I hope you didn't pay a lot for it, but congratulations on finding a good use for it. What are the rules of the drinking game?

Here's a little hint, if a movie has CAVEMEN FIGHTER PILOTS, there is a 97.5% chance it will suck.

It's great how every year there seems to be one movie like this that is so epic in it's stupidity.

people like you are the reason sequals to these movies gets made

*cough HOUSE OF THE DEAD *cough

I can't make fun. I bought The Postman for the same reason.

I love the scene where the cows are massacred! It's easy to see they had to cut most of it to get the PG-13 but damn it was still funny as hell.

However, every scene with Forrest Withaker made me cringe. See, I think he's a good actor and when I saw him in BATTLEFIELD EARTH I had just seen him in the superb GHOST DOG ... I couldn't help feeling embarassed for him. Is he a Scientologist as well? I can't see how else he'd have signed onto this epic turd.

BTW, listen to the hilarious commentary on the DVD by Travolta and the director! They compare their film to BLADE RUNNER and 2001, saying that in 10 years it will be considered a classic and a milestone of sci-fi cinema!

Fabfunk has a beer and cheets on his wife.

Dude a battlefield earth sequel would rule.

My personal favorite of these types of movies is Street Fighter. Few things are funnier than the thought of grown men and women thinking what they were making could even come close to being considered "a movie"

House of the Dead is another good example and this year it looks to be Catwoman. That one looks to have the potential for the "what the fuck were they thinking? I mean who could possibly even for a second have thought this was a good idea? These people need to be fired, publically humiliated, castrated, killed etc... Holy mother of God, I mean, the fuck? What in the..how..wa..I've lost the ability to think as I've been rendered retarded for viewing and trying to comprehend this" award.

The best is when the creators actually think what they've made has some merit. What the poster said about the Travolta comentary is hilarious. I heard Uwe's commentary on House of the Dead is funny too but I forgot to listen to it when I rented the movie.

Tarantino told Travolta that he thought it was one of the best Sci-fi films he had seen.... i can only assume his only other experience of Sci-fi had been the Jeff Goldblum masterpiece Earth Girls are Easy (followed The Fly with this movie like wtf was he thinking even).

Also i think you paid $3 too much.

The moment when Travolta shoots the cow’s leg off is the funniest thing I’ve seen in years.

Re: I've just purchased BATTLEFIELD EARTH

choo Eeeeeeeddiot!

This movie taught me that Harrier jets are easy to fly.

Fella, you want a film that's a good drinking game, just get your mitts on Bruce Robinson's 'Withnail and I'...not only is this filmically beautiful, the script so filled with wit, as poinient as anything committed to celluloid....but also the simplest drinking game ever devised...

Just drink EVERYTHING Withnail drinks (including the lighter fluid; I think we can forego the anti-freeze as that isn't actually imbibed, merely mentioned)...You'll be out of your tree and/or dead within 20 minutes!!

Rubbing your body head-to-toe in Deep Heat is an optional extra, but a surefire way to keep the ladies amused, (as long as coitus is not on the cards, but if you end up playing this game I can hardly imagine THAT being an option)

PS...any ladies that come across gentlemen covered in Deep Heat, beware your sensitive lady-parts!!!
Sorry, I was advised to post this by my lawyers.

Before True Lies?

Seriously if you just chill, this movie is brilliantly fun, like the types of films i'd make if i were still 5...

Barry: and then they learn their language through this special machine, and then they capture my girl and then i teach everyone stuff and we steal gold and then fly these jets and it's awesome...but you....Kim, seriously you gotta die....
Kim: But I always get killed...
Barry: Ok you can die heroically saving us by wiping out an entire race!
Kim: An Entire race?
Barry: Yeah don't that sound neat...
Kim: an entire race.
Forrest: Can I play too?
Barry: Sure but you're a bad guy
Forrest: It's cause i'm black...
Barry: No in the end you're GOOD.
Forrest: Sweet, My mom has this awesome wig I can wear!
John: Well then I get to be the Ultimate Bad Guy...
Barry: Yes but you have to wear the wig too.
John: And this!
Barry: What the hell is that?
John: It's a nose guard thingy. Look, Forrest you can wear one too.
Kim: I found some toy harriers!
Barry: And we'll use legos for gold bricks!
John: Sweet.

Fabfunk, You rock... I own this DVD too, it's fun, especially while drinking or dismembering...these other chumps just don't know how to enjoy a great BAD movie.

You know Arnold can handle any vehicle of destruction.

"My defense is that I wanted a movie to play a drinking game with."

Take a drink everytime the camera is tilted!

Moving this thread, but for what it's worth, I created The Battlefield Earth Drinking Game in an issue of SCIFI Magazine about three years ago. I could scan it if I had a copy of the mag around.

this almost sounds like dialogue on SouthPark making fun of the movie.

The drinking game must contain a stipulation for the word "leverage". This film is art. My personal favourite scene is when heroic Barry Pepper tries to run away and this fuck-off big ship crashes into a building for no reason and the debris kills loads of humans. I once had a double bill of Battlefield Earth followed by Batman and Robin. I laughed my lower intestine out.

Excuse me everyone. How dare you mock this movie. It is truly a
SAGA OF THE YEAR 3000
