To me battlefield earth falls under the “so bad it begins to loop back around into Cheesey fun” category.
I especially love how what are essentially cave men find F16 fighter jets from the past and not only do the jets and old fuel work, but the cave men know how to start them and fly them effectively.
That movie suffers from the source material being fucking ridiculously long and weird. Battlefield Earth: A Saga of the Year 3000 is like 1000 pages or so. Also it’s L Ron Hubbard so the book is just weird and creepy at times.
Yes! Battlefield Earth.
I stayed for the whole movie because I couldn’t believe how bad it was.

L Ron really outdid himself on that gem.
You should see what he saved for the non-fiction section.
It really was something.
Ok but the book is actually really good though. It’s hilarious that they never explain how they learned how to fly and operate the machinery

They used to get paid by the word back then.

For a writer he was not concise in his explanations.

I watched the trailer and it looked so good. I was really waiting for it for a half year or so. You can imagine my disappointment.
