"Manos: The hands of fate:

Worst.
Movie.
Ever.

I don't know "Space Mutiny" was pretty damn bad, but made for a great MST episode

The lamest one I ever got was when I was 19 and a guy walked over to me (I was working at Blockbuster at the time) and said "Has anyone ever told you that you have beautiful skin?" I think I looked at him with no expression and said "yes". He looked a little flustered and walked away then his buddy came over to ask me out for him.

Well at least you gat that. Usually for me its:

"Damn, how tall are you"
or
"How's the weather up there"
or
"Do those legs go all the way up"

It is indeed out on DVD. My roommate introduced me to it decades ago (well, maybe 15 years), long before we were roommates.

Now he has a copy on our DVD racks, so I know it's out.

Love that freaking movie.

See, I disagree.

There are movies that are so bad, they're funny. They're past bad, and into another realm of hysteria. But there is this special balancing point. A movie that is just bad enough, but not going so far as to be funny. Just bad. Utterly bad. Irredeemably bad. And the worst part is, with the cast it has, it should be the greatest movie ever. Instead, it is the worst.

Chevy Chase
Dan Akroid
John Candy
Nothing But Trouble I shudder.

Manos was on MST3k and it was horrible even then. I'll have to look into space Mutiny.

Was there anywhere else to work in your town?

See, the last one....I'd just have to look at the guy and with a sad look and say "Pathetic. You need to spend some more time in the minors before you can make it to the Bigs."

Nah, cant say I really dig A.J.

Same here.

LOL This is when I lived in San Diego. Dshai worked for BB here in Dayton. Hence the reason I frequented his store, since I had worked at a movie place just before moving here, I had become a movie-holic

Ah, themed pickup lines.

Honestly, I've never had the unmitigated gall to try any pick up line ever. Perhaps this is because I don't go barhopping or clubbing, and so I never have the opportunity, but then I've never tried any on the Blockbuster checkout girls either.

Perhaps it's just because I don't drink.
