Comments for The DVD Dump http://dvddump.today.com For All Your Trashy Video Needs Sat, 07 Nov 2009 15:11:27 +0000 http://www.today.com/version-2.3.1 Comment on Things Learned While Working at a Video Store by Venomsamurai7 http://dvddump.today.com/2009/03/11/things-learned-while-working-at-a-video-store/#comment-117 Venomsamurai7 Tue, 31 Mar 2009 17:47:35 +0000 http://dvddump.today.com/2009/03/11/things-learned-while-working-at-a-video-store/#comment-117 Hey man, I can totally relate to what you're saying. I work in the Electronics section at Walmart and I get some of the dumbest questions on the planet. My personal favorite is thus- Picture if you will a Monday night. Now picture that on every previous monday night you have put new releases out at midnight. This customer has seen you do this week after week and yet still has the audacity to ask -"When are you putting out new releases?" That and this one -"Why don't you have_____in on the release date?" Like asking me for an explanation is going to suddenly make your item appear in my hand. Hey man,

]]> Comment on It Was Supposed To Be Bad by lordfluffy http://dvddump.today.com/2009/02/15/it-was-supposed-to-be-bad/#comment-59 lordfluffy Mon, 16 Feb 2009 19:16:14 +0000 http://dvddump.today.com/2009/02/15/it-was-supposed-to-be-bad/#comment-59 So many producer and ad wizards seem to fail to understand that you can't really create a B-Movie classic, it just kind of has to happen. There are some exceptions (I think the people who made Repo: The Genetic Opera knew they were shooting for cult status) but for the most part, you either put your story out there and find a small, demented audience, or you laugh at yourself (Like Troma) or you simply make a bad movie and wonder why no one comes to see it. Thanks for the commentary. So many producer and ad wizards seem to fail to understand that you can’t really create a B-Movie classic, it just kind of has to happen.

It's my least favorite movie of all time, and goes squarely in my personal "Z" category. LOL… this is a great system. ;) Where would you put “Phantom of the Paradise” I wonder?

We must have equally 'bad' taste. Love the fact that you’re doing frequent reviews of bad films (DVD or VHS) I’m just worried that I’ve seen most of the films you’ve reviewed so far.
