Haven't seen any of those.

But they sound kind of crappy, you know.

Looks like someone's ready to raid the WalMart $5.50 dvd bin. Over the years, I've seen bits and parts of these movies, but I don't think I've seen any of these all the way through. And that includes Volunteers. I'm thinking about buying that one myself.

I have seen “Kung Pow: Enter the Fist”, it has it’s moments but still, I would have to say that if you (for example) pay $5.50 for it Wal-Mart is getting the better deal.

Super Troopers is one of those Low-Brow, Low Budget Comedies that got funding based on the success of American Pie, Road Trip, and maybe one other quasi-successful film that same summer. it is stupid and shamefull, but it has a few bits of entertaining dialog and a few quotable moments.

If you like stupid-funny you may well enjoy it. I have not seen the others.

If I were you, I'd just check them out on IMDB.COM, tesco. I use that site so much, it has a revered place right beside this forum, PBW, and my Ratings site on the Link bar .

[edit] Oh, and I think Volunteers is the one with John Candy and Tom Hanks. Can't go wrong with much of any Tom Hanks movies.

Stop shopping at Walmart! They are one of the most evil corporations to come about in history.

That may be true, but for cheapskates like me, it's the place to go. I'll take my chances with this aspect of the Dark Side!!
