You should see this dudes Youtube page, both the comments section and his "about me" explains a hell of a lot.

I was thinking the same thing! seriously I had no idea this movie ment so much to some people.

Growing up this was one of those background movies your parents put on while you were in the midst of doing something else like playing with action figure and whatnot. Followed by every once and awhile glancing up and watching it for a couple of minutes before resuming what was probably far more interesting than the movie itself.

also, why is there a amalgam of Morris Day, Bobby Brown and Rudy Coby spliced with a furry in this?

Everyone my age (24) who saw this movie when it was new seems to appreciate it, myself included. I liked it, and I have fond memories of it, but at the same time I've never thought of it as some epic masterpiece; rather just a nice piece of my childhood.

That being said, this was cringe inducing and I sincerely feel there's something wrong with the individual who decided this was a good idea.

Most of the people my age (22ish) have a big soft spot for this movie, not because it's good, but because of the lens we use to gloss over the 90's. Ask somebody my age what they think of Empire Records, you'll get about the same response (I LOVE IT).

Pretty much this. I saw in the theater as a kid, enjoyed it immensely and when I caught it on TV in high school still liked it enough to watch the end. The nice animation didn't hurt either.

Yet I'm still flabbergasted that someone went through the trouble of making this while live action Robotech remains in production hell.

Fuck...

I think that's Dead Again. And I would totally watch that.

I guess. Whatever.

Oh god... noo....

This clip makes me want to die.

This movie had some clever bits to it, like when they go to the redneck theme park that's a thinly-veiled parody of Disneyland.

Still pretty forgettable by Disney movie standards, though.

I'm right there with you. This came out when I was in Middle School, and as such, it seemed awfully cool.

But enjoying it enough, over a period of time to attempt to do this? Holy shit.

There really is a deranged, creepily obsessive fandom for everything on the internet isn't there? There's a "Rude Dog and the Dweebs" fanfic site somewhere, isn't there? (DON'T TELL ME I DON'T WANT TO KNOW)

My best guess is "drama class".

I was unable to watch this all the way through.
