I think you're wrong...it would have been SO much better...considering the fact that main hero drowns at the end...;)

You're TRULY AWFUL...:lmao:

A VERY good point well made :))

I am surprised here that a few find Rocky Horror a crap movie, although it won't win any oscars, I though it was quite fun, Roadie also.

IMO a fun movie doesnt equal being good.
The godfather is a great movie, but certainly not fun.
American Pie is a fun movie I can watch again and again, but I'm aware that it's not a good movie.
Roadie holds the fun of a lot of Meat Loaf featuring, and so might be considered a cult classic among the fans. I personally have seen it two times I think. It's quite enjoyable to watch, but I dont worship every single line or scene.
Also I've noticed that it's mostly women who think Roadie is a cult/great/good movie and watch it endless times. Might be something to do with the old Loaf fancying :eyebrows:

But a fun movie also doesn't mean the film is not good either. There is no way you can compare something like The Godfather to Rocky Horror. Yes, American Pie you can, because the movie was made to be fun, just like Rocky Horror, and if you find a movie you quite enjoy, and FUN, you must like it and find it quite good.

Like I said, neither Roadie or Rocky Horror will ever win any sort of oscar nomination, but they are both Fun movies in their own way. Also roadie will never have the following of Rocky Horror now, but there is quite a few fans of it, alot due to the fact of many late seventies, early eighties musical talent in Roadie, this is what I found whilst browsing the internet, and the reasoning of my very first question, and poll.
:D

What's surprising, that some people have the balls to say they don't like certain films Meat Loaf has been in?

why's that surprising?

There are more films that Meat's been in that I don't like than there are that I do. That has nothing to do with Meat though, I'm pretty sure I'd still not lke the film if Meat wasn't in it ... Pleasure Drivers would still be crap regardless. Likewise 51st State or Fight Club for example would still be great films with no Meat in them.

:)) The only movie featuring Meat Loaf I've watched "endless times" is Fight Club and it would still be my favorite movie if he wasn't in it.
Roadie is entertaining but neither good nor crazy enough to ever become a "cult classic". The only reason why I still watch it from time to time is because I like the setting of U.S. movies from the 1970s and early 1980s and because Meat Loaf's facial expression always amuses me. He has amazing thespian abilities, unfortunately he rarely gets roles in which they can really shine.
If you talk about Meat Loaf, the actor to people who aren't fans, most of them will spontaneously name Rocky Horror and / or Fight Club. I think it's predominantly Meat Loaf fans who are interested in Roadie.

Nothing to do with Meat being in it or not. I don't think anyone need balls to say if they like or don't like a film Meat has been in. If anyone says they love every film Meat has ever been in, I would think they are on the edge of being a Meat stalker, because Meat has made some turkeys. I was surprised, because of how few people I have chatted to, who has seen Rocky Horror Picture Show, and not liked it in some way. Like I said, they may not love it, but they find something catchy about it.

I could give you a list of the ones I don't like regardless of the fact Meat's in it or not !

IMO Meat's acting saves most of the films hes in. Hes only been in one blockbuster and the small insignifigant ones (Examples: Formula 51, Black Dog, Blacktop, ect.) Meat saves from total destruction.

Roadie is one of those movies i personally cant stand. Its not even worth cult status, it doesn't have replay value IMO. the Monsters episode he was in deserves it more.

I've yet to be able to finish watching Trapped, christ that's a crap film

Go on then, list all the films Meat has been in that you don't like.

I will take you up on that and this is my personal opinion, not keen on;

The Squeeze
51st State
Fight Club
Waynes World
Pelts

These five stand out at the moment, just not keen on these ones and I'm sure there are more but can't at this time and moment think of them.

When you say three, you mean five ?, because I count 5 films listed, unless there's a seperate list of 3 that I'm not seeing :shrug:

My bad, I forgot to check properly :lol:.

his acting deflitely saved blacktop, not so sure about the other ones. 51st State is good because of the american/british cultural contrast, and probably SLJ. While on the other hand no one in their right mind would say Wayne's World is a good film because of Meat Loaf, yet it's an awesome movie! 8).
In Fight Club though, his part is quite important to me. Not because it's a big part, but because his grotesque appearance did a lot for the overall feel and atmosphere of the movie. I dont think it would have been as strange (=good) without busty bobby

No it didn't, it was a shit film regardless, as they say "you can't polish a turd"

I don't actually think Blacktop was the worst film, Trapped was very poor, To Catch A Yeti was no better than an episode of Falcon Crest, utter pants imo. Plus many others. What surprises me, is Meat actually accepts these roles :shock:

You are correct, Blacktop wasn't the worst film, but that still doesn't make it any good, to me anyway.

blacktop itself sucked, but Meat's performance, especially in the motel room scene was pretty decent. one of his best imo.

I thought he saved Spice World :D

nobody in the whole world would be able to save spice world!
