I have some comments on the invite I sent for this Bad Movie Night.
"The only comic book I read when I was a kid was a Madballs tie-in."
I've mentioned this before and linked to this list of the 5 worst comitisements. Number one is a BMN half-time staple, Chuck Norris: Karate Kommandos.
"They have yet to make that into a movie and I'm running out of patience. Please forward this to anybody you may know at the American Greetings Corporation, who own Madballs for some reason."
They also own the Care Bears which explains this crossover:
"We lost Lorenzo Semple Jr. to eternal life last week. He wrote Batman: The Movie, which was made to launch the TV series, which Semple developed"
Obituary here. Semple, who by the way took his father's name (in that his real name is Lorenzo Semple III, also wrote Flash Gordon from very-similar-to-tonight Superhero Movie Night.
"If Batman were a Madball he'd be Screamin Meemie."
"Swamp Thing is vegetable material in the form of a human. A muck-monster in the vein of The Heap"
"or Man-Thing."
"A creation that comics writers invent when they think, 'I don't know, pile of leaves?'"
Swamp Thing is our sixth Wes Craven movie, just one shy of leaders John Carpenter and Godfrey Ho. It also Adrienne Barbeau's fifth movie. Welcome!
"Swamp Thing would be Slobulus."
Here's what happened last week (NSFW):
