[Boom]

Sure to be another piece of cinematic gold .

 

[Guhndoi]

They are also doing "American Battleship", with Carl Weathers and Mario Van Peebles!

 

[Wolfwood]

Carl Weathers? Sold!

 

[Kurosawa]

The inheritors of the old time Poverty Row, the modern Monogram. Somebody's gotta make cheesy B-movies with D stars.

 

[Rowsdower!]

YES! I love these idiots. I never watch any of their stupid movies, but it's always fun to see what they'll rip off next. For those who don't know, we have a thread over in the Cutting Room Floor forum for speculating on what The Asylum's next exercise in plagiarism might be:

Honestly, that sounds better than Battleship.

 

[Rowsdower!]

Yeah, Battleship will break the mold and become the one movie that is actually worse than its Asylum rip-off.

But seriously, this IS an awesome poster:

F*** Yeah!

 

[Mike_D202]

The look on his face in the poster is priceless

 

[Rowsdower!]

"Fourscore and seven years ago... I KILLED SOME F**KING ZOMBIES WITH AN AX!!"

 

[Donut]

Where is their Batman movie ?

 

[Rowsdower!]

I don't know, but I'll buy it if they ever make one, I swear.

LOL the poster is awesome compared to the crappy ones for Vampire Slayer.

 

[Rowsdower!]

I like the Vampire Slayer ones but they don't hold a candle to the sheer EPICNESS of that poster.

 

[Mike_D202]

Where is their Batman movie ?

I thought that was "The Black Knight" movie?

EDIT* oh wait nevermind that was a different studio. I guess The Asylum has a "no superhero" policy. But here's the Batman rip-off:

 

[Rowsdower!]

LOL, that is atrocious.

But the Asylum doesn't totally steer clear of superheroes. They did do "Almighty Thor" with Richard Grieco as Loki.

 

[Kane52630]

They did do "Almighty Thor" with Richard Grieco as Loki.

More importantly...Kevin Nash as Odin!

 

[Boom]

Have any of you guys seen this one? It's on Netflix:

It's ****ing hilarious.

 

[Wolfwood]

That is such a badass poster.

I haven't seen the movie but I did watch the review of it on thatguywiththeglasses.com and it was hilarious. Holmes' high-pitched voice is so bloody awful it's hilarious.

 

[Boom]

The bad guy has a T-Rex, a Kraken, and a mechanical dragon. No explanation is given for any of this.

 

[Rowsdower!]

Well... it's set back in time. Dinosaurs and krakens and mechanical dragons weren't extinct until like, the 1980s.

 

[Boom]

 

[TheDreamMaster]

Don't forget the bad guy has what amounts to an Iron Man suit at the end.
