Post your thoughts on Over the Top!

...or maybe we're over-thinking this?

Ooh, that was a perfect opportunity to make an Over the Top joke.

For example:

"...or maybe we're thinking...over the top?"

Me thinks someone has been listening to too many of Mike's horrible punny comments

I hope you don't mean me...

...but then again, I did the 'beyond thunderdome' joke a couple days ago, so I've got no room to talk.

[AmandaGal]

I didn't, but now that you mention it . . .

Great RiffTrax. And let me say, this was one of the most retarded movies I've ever seen in my life.

[macleod]

But it's still so watchable...unlike Aeon Flux, which pretty much hurt to digest

[mrbasehart]

I just saw this.  I think you've all reference my favourite riffs: Mike singing the Band Aid song, Stallone powered truck, and the Stallone constipated look all made me laugh out loud.  I do think the movie is utterly stupid, but completely watchable, like a lot movies made in the 80's were.

I think that makes sense, because the late 80's themselves were utterly stupid, but completely watchable

agreed, much better than Aeon Flux, it had a plot. A very predictable, cheesy plot, but a plot none the less.The special effects were better in this as well.

[macleod]

Wait, there were special effects in "Over the Top"?

Don't you mean "Steroids?"

Yeah, those arm-wrestler dudes weren't wearing fat-suits, they were just fat.

[Quicksilver]

Still much better CGI, oh yeah I learned not only can a rig catch up to a pickup, it has enough speed to take it out, I wonder if police departments have wondered about ditching there cruisers for peterbuilts.

[mrbasehart]

Still much better CGI.

...but...Over the Top doesn't have any CGI in it...  Am I not getting a joke or something?

Well, I'm as confused as you are...
