Enough of this 'Lighten Up' beep

There's good spoofs and then there's bad spoofs and then there's god-awful creations that make me question whether watching "movies" by these two gentlemen isn't a form of torture or capital punishment. To put it delicately: I would rather have monkeys scratch my eyeballs out and be forced to hear nail scraped across the chalkboard 24/7 than watch filth like meet the spartans.

Don't get me wrong: I love spoofs. I love Family Guy, I love the Simpsons, I love Scary Movie. But how can you honestly say this garbage is even legitimately funny? I don't laugh. I alternate between rage and disgust. One minute my veins pop and I want to throttle the lives out of these miserable bastards who keep popping out these ridiculously stupid movies that are so retarded you wanna s***kick the executives who agreed to these horrors, and the next minute I just want to grab an ax, put it through the TV, and puke my guts out in a trash can.

If Vuxuan is anything like me, then he watches lots of movies. Sometimes we need to watch films we don't think we'll like in order to broaden our perspective. Also, sometimes we're pleasantly surprised when our expectations are low.
As he said, he enjoyed Scary Movie (as did I), and 300 was ripe for satire..... but Meet the Spartans was a total misfire.
Even with my lowered expectations, it might be the worst thing I've ever seen.

Lots of people like to watch film just to see how bad they really are
this is pretty much the worst film of all time.

Yep, I watched most if it on HBO on a Sunday afternoon just like you watch a car accident...it's awful.

And yeah, I love the idiots that like it and think that if you didn't you're some guy with a bow-tie that does calculus for fun and has never been laid. Yeah. OK.
