Your favourite unintentionally hilarious moments?


My TV was on in the background and this came on. When I started watching it, much like a horrific car crash, I couldn't look away. I had to endure the entirety of this train wreck. However, one of the upsides to this, is that I laughed more than I did while watching many of todays awful comedy movies. This is unintentionally hilarious.

Pretty much anything that comes out of Nelson's mouth is comedy cold. "This visibility sucks balls".

In the airplane scene, pretty much every obstacle that Nelson spots is announced with "LOOK OUT, 2 O'CLOCK!". There was always something going on quite frequently at 2 O'Clock.

When the nuked the glazier, I liked how it showed a squad of B1 Lancers from the outside, so anyone who didn't know anything about these plane can clearly see they have closed cockpits, but then the internal shots of the pilots showed them in glass canopy type cockpits found on small fighter jets. There was a lot of dreadful and amusing continuation errors like this. The little plane the family were in got sucked into that tornado and from the outside it appeared to be tossed around violently and wildly. Then it would switch to an inside camera angle and it appears to have some 'mild turbulence' lol.

When that little Cessna landed and exploded into a huge mushroom cloud, it was just brilliant. Reminded me of American Psycho when he blew the car up with a hand gun and realised something didn't seem quite right lol

I also found great amusement that there appears to be some genuine questions being asked on this message board as to whether Nelson had some form of learning disabilities or not. I fear that may not have been intentional, but he was just such a dire actor it came across that way. Imagine being him and reading that about yourself in a review!!

lol . . .

I concur . . .
not only did I waste a dollar buyin' this cheez-fest I wasted 90 minutes watchin' it . . .

I think the kid said:
'DAD GET US OUT OF HERE!' about 11 times . . .,to be fair, that was pretty much bc his bomb-making, random gun firing, wandering away from the vehicle, gas-sucking, aviation-regulation-disregarding-pilot dad kept getting them in terrible situations . . .

I think I said omg and rolled my eyes about 50 times . . .

I laughed when the dad said: We're gonna have to make an emergency landing . . .'

Like - what OTHER kind of landing could be made in this pandemonium?

I cracked up when just after the plane exploded, in this vast snow-covered runway field area, some casually-warmly dressed woman security guard suddenly appeared as if she was on a stroll out there . ..

It was hilarious when later she got wiped out in mid-sentence at the door saying 'Stay here - everything's gonna be ok . . .'

The dad looked like 'Droopy-Dog' the entire movie (but google ye and see what that meaneth) . . . he looks just like this cartoon.
I pretty much thought the dad looked stoned . . .

The sheer number of endangerments he subjected his family to was insane ... so many to choose from but the plane take-off, ride, and landing were the most ridiculously unrealistic ...

There's not room to describe how unrealistic vast expanses
of empty open roads were available to be driven on over 6 hours of millions of people evacuating major cities...

The disc I got had bloopers and I really couldn't see any difference between bloopers and actual alledged acting . . .

I wonder how movies like this get made anyway . . .

isn't there - shouldn't there be, some kind of bar or standard against extreme cheez?
