Alright, let's start this new forum off right with something truly abhorrent.
No, not The Star Wars Holiday Special, but close.
Canuovea offered this one before and I poopooed it because I simply didn't want to watch it again. I'm willing to make this sacrifice now in order to ring in a new year and a new forum.
Here is The Ewok Adventure:
As before we will watch the movie and attempt to have a discussion about how good/bad/whatever it was. Or just bitch about it.

Note to aspiring movie makers and writers:
NEVER START WITH "OUR STORY BEGINS LONG AGO IN AN ENCHANTED FOREST"!
That's just shit.
*edit* Who wants to take bets that Strange Magic starts out with a similar quote?

I'm only 12 minutes in and I don't wanna watch anymore, but I'm going to.

Goddamnit Wordweaver, I'm already reading the worse novel ever written, do I have to juggle my evening between this shit and a horrible book?!

What's the name of the book?

Org's Odyssey, it's a furry novel that someone told me was supposed to be painfully bad, and sure enough it is. The PDF file I have is 260 pages long, but I've been slowly picking away at it since the end of November. It's far an away the worst novel I've ever read.

Do you just hate yourself or something? Do you enjoy pain? Why would anyone willingly subject themselves to something that is complete...
Wait, I just put up The Ewok Adventure...
Carry on.

I'll watch the Ewok Adventures this evening. It looks bloody awful.
I subjected myself to it so I could write a review, the only problem is that I had the read the prologue and first two chapters with Jack Daniels in my system just to keep me from walking away laughing.

Oh, shit! The dude's name is Duke Otterland!
I'm calling bullshit on that.
Now I'm contemplating writing a furry just to offset the awfulness that is out there. Furries need good stuff ta read too.

Everything about the novel is fucked. 6 of the 7 main characters have catchphrases that they use constantly, even when it makes no sense. One likes to say "if you ask me" even when he's asking a question (e.g. "If you ask me, what's the plan?").

That sounds horrible. I looked it up on Amazon and it couldn't even manage better than 1 star. It seems to be universally despised and--
Goddamnit Renard! You've already derailed my movie thread!

It is pretty terrible.
For comparison, I read that AND Eye of Argon, which is generally considered the worst fantasy ever written by people who have never read Org's Odyssey. Eye of Argon is, by far and away, much better.

Okay, I've gotten through it. Took a few tries.
Anyone else manage to watch it before I throw spoilers all over?

Not yet, but I'm not sure when I'll be able to, so... make sure Renard has seen it first?
