Elaborating on my own #Monsterdon tastes:

For me personally, The Raven was less enjoyable than, e.g., Krull because even though it had stronger actors, you'd have to toss everything except the premise and maybe 2 scenes to have a decent script. The further down the list, the more the movies become slogs and/or incoherent.

You've got your occasional "classic for a reason". Maybe it has outdated effects or gender politics, or it can't feel wholly fresh because it established the conventions that everyone else followed, but it'd still be a high point of a film-studies course's required viewing. Then you have movies which are a rollicking good time, because they are passion projects that commit to the bit or they win chaos points with pure gonzo energy. Next you start to see missed opportunities, or a lower budget making its bite felt.

If you screw up again, I can't cover for you.

...

I don't need you to cover for me, I can take care of myself.

Literally... that's not how it works... If you could take care of yourself they wouldn't have had to cover for you the first time... (Suggestion, not murdering old ladies and summoning murder-monsters is probably a good step towards taking care of yourself.)

How many years until Twilight is eligible for #monsterdon? Is it like Little League US Copyright Office rules, or original-distribution-media-must-be-obsolete, or…?

Well, that was some of the worst acting we’ve seen. But it did have a fun early music video vibe, with 80s hair galore. Thanks, @Taweret for the chance to riff on the cheesiness. #Monsterdon

@trixter I'm betting it was two different people mixing at two different times.

Whoever did the music knew what they were doing and had ten years experience. Whoever did the movie was in a beginner's course at college and was just learning how to operate the machines.
