How bad can it be?

Okay, I just saw graffiti bridge for 8 bucks at a grocery store. (I started giggling like a moron when i did)
I have never seen and am scared to see. boxed
But really, HOW bad is it? I mean, purple rain is a bad movie but I enjoy the hell out of it. Why is GB bad? What kind of bad is it. Should i buy it?

Watch the trailer and you'll know the answer to that, if you can even get through it.

it's bad.

no, really.

it's BAD. disbelief

"under the cherry moon" was bad, but at least it was the kind of bad that you could laugh AT and WITH, and sometimes it would come through with a memorable bit of dialogue or some kind of amusing "WTF?!" moment.

graffiti bridge doesn't even have THAT.

i will say, if you're a fan of prince's hair, you're in for a treat.

You know the first few times you get REALLY drunk?


Like crawing on the ground grabbing on the the grass in the front lawn so you don't slide off the face of the earth? And you throw up over and over again, and finally you have nothing left to throw up, but you puke thin air anyways?

You grovel, you roll, you place your hands over your head and beg God that if he takes away the pain and the stops the room from spinning that you will NEVER do it again????




yeah, it's kind of like that.

Remember the House Party movies? They're not as embarrassing as GB.

Let's just say if Planet Earth was a movie, it would be better than GB.

Oh My God, Gamma Ray Bursts have done less damage to planetary systems than GB did to Prince's acting career.

It's an OK comedy. neutral

I think if Prince had set out with the intention of actually making it a comedy, though, it wouldn't be funny at all. falloff

If a meteor had not taken out of the Dinosaurs when it slammed into the Yucatan peninsula 65 million years ago, Graffiti Bridge certainly would have finished them off.

If movies where parts of the human body, Graffiti Bridge would be tonsils. You just don't need them.

I mean more money went into Hairspray and relaxers than acting lessons for that movie.

Too bad Prince movies couldn't be like Highlander.. You know, there could only be ONE, and it would have to kill off the others.

i got a DVD for christmas that's about a turkish guy in a spiderman costume who attacks women and makes mice eat people's eyeballs out; and then some turkish guy in a captain america costume runs around turkey looking for the evil spiderman guy and they get into a lot of poorly choreographed fist fights and there's also a masked turkish wrestler who gets in on some of the action.

well anyway, yeah. it's better than "graffiti bridge". nod

Graffiti Bridge is linked to the ousting of Jean Claude Aristide a few years after it's release. Haiti hasn't been the same since.

THIS SCENE is easier to sit through than TICK TICK BANG was in Graffiti Bridge.

if you look closely enough at the patterns in my bathroom floor tile, you can kinda make out a cluster of shapes that resemble jeanne tripplehorn gasping in horror. it takes a while to make out all the facial features and i guess it takes a little bit of imagination to see what i'm talking about, but it's there in the floor tile, and it's way more entertaining than "graffiti bridge".

I have a bat dick joke I tell over the phone that takes 30 seconds which is more entertaining than the entire span of Graffiti Bridge!

coolI've always liked "Graffiti Bridge"

My favorite part of the movie...besides the music...is when they are playing, hangman, in bed....

As much as I talk here....Prince himself....makes me mute. Speechless. And I have left myself wide open for all of those who would like to tell me to be quiet....

Graffiti Bridge is about as entertaining as a photowhore contest in General Discussion. Only all the pictures are of Prince with his hair parted in different ways and occasional native american face paint. Like he's the last of the Mowhekans dolled up like Phillis Dillar or some shit rolleyes

If Graffiti Bridge were being filmed in the 40's instead of the 80's, the Japanese would have bombed the studio it was being made in rather than Pearl Harbor.
