Roger’s Worst Pick for 1999 – Baby Geniuses
Joel’s Worst Pick for 1999 – Pokémon The First Movie
“|Baby Geniuses” was ugly.
Guy who directed it was Porky’s Bob Clark.
I’ve never, ever seen Baby Geniuses though I have to agree with Roger, this movie along with its sequel and its series in general should have never ever seen the light of day.
Well, I like Bob Clark’s Xmas memories of growing up in Indiana. But, not his memories of infants or adolescents.
A Christmas Story was not written by Bob Clark, he was just the director. The movie is based on Jean Shepherd’s excellent novel “In God We Trust: All Others Pay Cash.” Those are his memories. The voice narrating the film is Shepherd’s.
I loved Magnolia and Cruel Intentions was okay. But how can Joel say that about Kevin Costner? He didn’t like JFK or A Perfect World, the dummy?
