What big budget movie had absolutely no buisness getting made?

Jump

  • That’s the problem.

    Why the hell is Mario fighting Donkey Kong to the song “Thunderstruck?”

    Because that is the least common denominator between them.

    They couldn’t take any of the music from any of the Mario games for that scene? Of course not; most people wouldn’t know it’s music from a Mario game.

    No, we need to slam a Top 40 classic rock song in there because that’s the only thing the plebeians who see this movie will understand.

  • I once electroplated some Spanish rice by making it in a cast iron pan and covering it tightly with aluminum foil.

    Because I was in college I ate the parts that weren’t silver. It tasted normal.

  • I’ve worked for a few where I was being exploited. One paid me by letting me keep the laptop they bought me.

    Then some accountant called me and asked if I still had it.

    I said no.

    Luckily as you do this more you learn what to look out for. The one I work for now is pretty great.
