Drop Dead Gorgeous is a pretty obscure movie that I just think is the funniest thing I’ve ever seen. Pretty massive cast too (Kirsten Dunst, Alison Janney, Kirstie Alley, Denise Richards, Amy Adams, Brittany Murphy etc).

I think it’s getting more recognition now thanks to being on some streaming services thankfully.

If you haven’t seen it and like dark comedy I really recommend it - it’s about a teenage beauty pageant in small town America and is filmed like a mockumentary. It’s hilarious.

:joker: Still makes me laugh every time it's brought up :flutter:. Will always have a soft spot for The Tribe and their silly New Zealand muddled-up vowels. Classic characters like Allie, Ember, Elice and Lix.

I love their accents and dramatic pauses. It's a real shame Channel 5 just abandoned it because the season they were prepping for had a good concept and a lot of the cast who had disappeared for the Techno storyline were set to return (Bray, Tai-San, KC, Alice) but C5 wanted a spin off instead

Here's a few "obscure" classics I totally forgot about from my childhood that I re-watched recently..

The Pagemaster, Now & Then and The Sandlot

(Sandlot is the best, brilliant kids movie).

I have' Drop Dead Gorgeous ' on dvd ,I re watched it not long ago. It's actually pretty funny in a dark way for sure.

Eerie Indiana anyone? I rewatched it a few years back with Luke and he loved it too. It only ran for 1 season though i think, same with my favourite show as a teenager My So Called Life, loved that no idea why they never made a second season

[Amy Jade]

was Eerie Indiana the one with the guy from Hocus Pocus?

My step brother used to watch that, I think on Nickelodeon or something, definitely sky.

What was that CBBC show in the mid-late 90s called where those two young lads flew around inside an invisible spherical shaped thing, like a big ball? Can never remember the name. :omgno:

EDIT: found it - AQUILA!

I use to watch that as a kid aswell, I don't know about you but I don't think kids shows are the same these days.

It feels like there were better programs back then .

I can actually remember the opening, it was like a weird chanting? I also don't remember it being ball shaped more like... like an egg? And it was a space ship that (I think!) had crash landed in Roman times, and maybe was found by the Romans(?) but then at some point a Roman soldier buried it... and then two 90's school kids found it... and hijinx ensued.

That's what I remember of it anyway :joker:

Wait! There are random episodes on YouTube :laugh:

Amazon Women on the Moon. One of the silliest, funniest films I've ever seen.

[Amy Jade]

the bad acting just added to my love of the show to be honest, It used to make me laugh how they'd add baby balling if a baby was in the scene but the baby was clearly asleep or if the dog Bob was in a scene they'd add the dog groaning when it was just laying down. I bloody loved The Tribe :laugh:

It was the main reason I loved it. The production values were absolutely awful as well, it was like it was cobbled together by school kids - and loads of the cast basically WERE highschool kids with no acting experience, it was so wholesome.

The movie “City Island” with Andy Garcia and Julianna Margulies.
It never fails to crack me up, and think of crying at the same time.
An absolute classic in my opinion.
