Part 3: Ten Movies You Won't Believe Actually Exist By Joie  [73 more lists]

Just when you thought the world made sense, someone made an Ace Ventura Jr. movie. ***Sigh***

Ok Quick (one more time): Name the 2005 movie starring Morgan Freeman, Kevin Spacey, Justin Timberlake and LL Cool J? Wrong. It's Edison (or "Edison Force").

This is what happens when you make a big budget movie that is so bad the studio is forced to skip the theatrical release and go straight to video.

Here's a clip:

Now we're getting to the good stuff...

Via Wikipedia:
The Roller Blade Seven follows Hawk Goodman, who is sent on a mission by Reverend Donald, to rescue Sister Sparrow from the clutches of the evil overlord Pharaoh, in the apocalyptic world of the f*ture. The film takes place in a region known as the Wheelzone, whose populace travels solely by the means of roller skates or skateboards. Shaw, however, arrives riding a Harley Davidson motorcycle.Sister Sparrow has been abducted from the Master of Light Institute by the evil Saint Offender. Before Hawk can complete his task, he must take psychedelic mushrooms with cult movie actress Karen Black and learn to rollerblade. Armed only with his samurai sword, Hawk does battle with the Black Knight, rollerblading ninjas and other gangs that inhabit the Wheelzone.

All that and Frank Stallone as the Black Knight...awesome!

Here's the trailer:

Ben Kingsly got paid well for this, so did Ed Burns and Cathleen McCormick. I'm pretty sure the rest of the crew got paid well, and the video game producers and all the other people who produced products to be associated with the film.

Too bad the movie grossed only 2 Million dollars in the US...on an 80 million dollar budget - and you didn't even know it existed!

FYI it's about dinosaurs or something...

And finally Proud American, a documentary film produced by Coca-Cola, American Airlines, Wal-Mart and MasterCard. In it's first week of release in 750 theaters it grossed $96,076, that's only $128 per screen. And that's the worst average of all time.
