Wow, we must have the same taste in movies during the 80's. I tried to get my kids to watch Time Bandit's and I could barely sit through it. I saw Ice Pirates last year and turned it off. But when I was younger, I would watch them all the time. Now Beastmaster is the bomb.

I always had a knack for spotting shitty movies, even at a young age, but I know there are a few I can't think of at the moment. Maybe someone will name one

I try not to watch shows/movies I watched as a kid. It's almost always a terrible idea.

I mostly watched a ton of disney movies growing up and disney movies in the 80's are better than disney movies now.

I guess I could put

Yes, and the crazy dude with the axes and his wife at the time, the Russian chick, who isn't Russian in the movie and one long run on sentence because I can't get this out fast enough.

in a reversal of sorts, although I never liked the Pee Wee Herman series as a kid, I had the opportunity to watch Pee Wees Big Top Adventure a few months ago and I laughed out loud at it. I know, csb

This. I loved the Beastmaster as a kid but saw it not too long ago and realized just how really bad it was.
