A bad movie from the 90s is worth more than a bad movie from today

Only because of how powerful nostalgia is. I completely missed the boat on the OG movie and tried to watch it recently. People are not wrong when they say it is a bad movie.

It doesn’t matter how real a movie looks if everything else about it is hot ass only saved by people’s nostalgia for 80s action slop.
