    I like pretty much anything Fred Ward was in. Remo Williams will never die

      Remo Williams is an under-rated masterpiece. It should have been an extended franchise, but they weren’t really much into that back then.

      Elvis. Sully. There’s two right off the top of my head.

      Fuck the film Sully for dragging the NTSB through the mud for fake drama. Absolute fucking hack writing that disrespects heroes of safety.

      Possibly the only proper answer if we put a minimum on the number of films required to be considered.

      Plan 9 from Outer Space!

      Dubbed the worst film ever made. To be fair to Bela Lugosi, he had no choice in the matter as he appeared in it film posthumously.

        I’m constantly astounded that people seem to unironically enjoy that movie. I don’t want to rain on anyone’s parade so I stay away from discussions about it, but I saw it in theaters (because I also love Jason Statham) and immediately regretted it. It felt like it was written as a joke, but then tried to take itself seriously, and failed at both. I feel like I’m getting pranked by people saying they like that movie.

    I was going to say “OJ Simpson”, knowing he was in The Naked Gun. I figured he got the part because of his notority as a football player, and figured it was his only film.

    Turns out he’s been acting since at least the mid 70s. He’s been in lile 15 movies. Which is kind of weird, knowing what he did later.

    So, I guess I can’t say O.J Simpson…

      He guest starred in an episode of a children’s show “Adventures in Wonderland”. The episode never aired because of the whole murder incident. So the episode was filmed so close to the time of the murder, it didn’t make it to air. Did he know he was going to commit murder while he was acting in a children’s show?
