Title: Ice Pirates (1984) Post by: Evildrider on October 20, 2012, 09:57:08 AM Since we're bringing back old movies. I saw this again on ONDemand. I used to love this movie when I was younger, it's so bad it's good. I mean just check out this. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-me2inj1nNw)

Space Herpes EDIT: Shit, didn't look at the youtube link. Title: Re: Ice Pirates (1984) Post by: JWIV on October 20, 2012, 11:33:39 AM One of my favorite childhood movies right there.

Title: Re: Ice Pirates (1984) Post by: Abagadro on October 20, 2012, 06:30:56 PM Only movie that ever gave me nightmares. Still not sure why. Castration assembly line is reason enough. Title: Re: Ice Pirates (1984) Post by: Venkman on October 21, 2012, 07:14:48 AM I didn't get some of the humor at the time, and it did nothing for me in later years. I think I remember enjoying it once though :-)
Title: Re: Ice Pirates (1984) Post by: JWIV on October 21, 2012, 11:15:31 AM It also has the dubious honor of a sex scene so bad that even as a single teenage boy I'd fast forward through it.

Title: Re: Ice Pirates (1984) Post by: Lantyssa on October 22, 2012, 06:30:13 AM I remember space herpes, some robot, and Anjelica Huston. I think her character became my proto-typical female pirate from then on.

Title: Re: Ice Pirates (1984) Post by: Chimpy on October 22, 2012, 06:42:57 AM I've always thought this was a terrible film. I don't think anyone denies it is pretty bad. But bad can be fun! Title: Re: Ice Pirates (1984) Post by: Furiously on October 22, 2012, 09:24:13 AM It was better than Cutthroat Island.
Title: Re: Ice Pirates (1984) Post by: Merusk on October 22, 2012, 10:25:08 AM I remember not hating Cutthroat Island when I saw it, but I was also 21 at the time. I saw it again recently and wow.. it was worse than I could have ever imagined.
Ice Pirates; not as bad as Cutthroat Island! Not an inspiring tagline, but one that fits. It's not a good movie, not even in the 'things int he 80s that were so bad they were good' way. Title: Re: Ice Pirates (1984) Post by: Ingmar on October 22, 2012, 10:48:14 AM The worst pirate movie is The Pirate Movie.
Title: Re: Ice Pirates (1984) Post by: proudft on October 22, 2012, 10:53:38 AM Well, speaking of pirate musicals, Cutthroat Island can't get an F because it has really, really good music. Just like Conan the Barbarian is elevated by its musical score to a work of operatic art, Cutthroat Island is lifted to the heights of maybe a D+.

Title: Re: Ice Pirates (1984) Post by: Bunk on October 22, 2012, 01:49:54 PM I just seem to remember Mary Crosby in a space princess outfit doing funny things to my private parts at the time as being one of the things I liked about this movie. I was 13.
Title: Re: Ice Pirates (1984) Post by: Lantyssa on October 22, 2012, 02:03:09 PM The worst pirate movie is The Pirate Movie. I loved that movie... when I was 10.Title: Re: Ice Pirates (1984) Post by: Chimpy on October 22, 2012, 07:28:00 PM Since we are on the tangent of rating pirate movies...
Best pirate movie: Yellowbeard. Title: Re: Ice Pirates (1984) Post by: Evildrider on October 22, 2012, 08:58:58 PM Since we are on the tangent of rating pirate movies... Best pirate movie: Yellowbeard. :thumbs_up: :thumbs_up: Title: Re: Ice Pirates (1984) Post by: Ghambit on October 22, 2012, 09:44:42 PM The entertainment suite in this movie is what got me interested in augmented reality as a kid.
Title: Re: Ice Pirates (1984) Post by: Furiously on October 24, 2012, 05:12:02 PM And space herpes.
Title: Re: Ice Pirates (1984) Post by: pxib on October 24, 2012, 05:20:24 PM In junior high I took part in some after-school drama classes. This movie happened to be the end of my teacher's (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0804346/) strange film career.
