Speaking of trailer compilations, there seem to be quite a few on archive.org:
Drive In Movie Trailer Compilation 1 If you scroll to the bottom of the page you'll see links to more Drive In Movie Trailer Compilations. There seem to be about 9 more and they're all about one hour a pop. I also subscribed to Exploitation.tv at least for the duration of the challenge. Looking for any similar streaming sites that would be good for B flicks. Shout TV has some stuff up also. |

Really excited for this. Any word on when the list thread will be up?

I don't have a car, so won't be seeing it, but just out of curiosity for anyone who does plan to watch it. I was listening to a movie show on the radio and heard the critics are panning Batman v Superman. Would that make it eligible if anyone sees it?

Re: Seventh Annual Drive-In/Exploitation Challenge April 1-30, 2016
Batman V Superman would be kind of pushing it. Batman and Robin is eligible at 11% on RT.

I think it's too soon. Unless BM v SM is a genuine POS, like Batman and Robin or even Superman Returns, we might need to give this one time to get enough perspective on if it is truly bad bad.

I assume the rules cover which films are eligible. :shrug:

Re: Seventh Annual Drive-In/Exploitation Challenge April 1-30, 2016
I should have looked it up before I posted that. Looking Superman Return up, it has a 76% rating on RT. I just think it's an objectively shitty movie. I should have not edited my comment. I had Eddie Murphy movie in there originally. I just thought another superhero movie made the comment balance better.
I dunno. If it drops below 20% I might not have an argument. |

Re: Seventh Annual Drive-In/Exploitation Challenge April 1-30, 2016
I saw a double feature of Batman v Superman and Deadpool at the drive-in last night (got out at 12:45). Maybe I got more out of it because I'm a comic reader, but I thought BvS was fine, maybe suffering a bit from having to do lot's of setup for what's to come. Really liked what they did with Wonder Woman. I did suffer a bit of tonal whiplash going from it to Deadpool, though.

I can't tell if people just want to crap on a new movie, or if it's really that hard to find older qualifying movies to watch.
A couple of seconds on Google gives you plenty of "Batman" and "Superman" stuff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxPju84in58 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6mf26S2K3w https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6YNeHakAAU https://archive.org/details/BetmenYa...mturkishBatman https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YruD7l_JaSw |

Re: Seventh Annual Drive-In/Exploitation Challenge April 1-30, 2016
I'm gonna watch the first two movies at the youtube links I posted. The other three I've seen before.

Re: Seventh Annual Drive-In/Exploitation Challenge April 1-30, 2016
I can't recommend it unless you want to torture yourself but there is an eligible ripoff of Kung Fu Panda out there called Legend of Kung Fu Rabbit. Nothing shows on the tomatometer, but audience score would make it low enough I think, 14%. I watched it for last year's animation challenge and barely made it through it without ripping my eyes out.

Re: Seventh Annual Drive-In/Exploitation Challenge April 1-30, 2016
Looking forward to some Godzilla, Stooges and Shaw Movies!

Re: Seventh Annual Drive-In/Exploitation Challenge April 1-30, 2016
And movie serials! I have a huge backlog of those accumulated.
Those looking for Superman and Batman stuff will find 4 very good serials featuring the characters. There's also the 1951 feature film Superman and the Mole-Men starring George Reeves which qualifies. |
Re: Seventh Annual Drive-In/Exploitation Challenge April 1-30, 2016
Every day I am soooo tempted to turn on something like a cheesy asylum movie, monster movie, or just plain ninja movie for the action adventure challenge, and even find myself browsing them, but almost always stop short of turning one on.
