Consequently, everything turns upside-down and bad becomes good. The result was a film Mark thought of ''Film/MammaMia''. He found it was so terrible that he actually went with it.

* DarthWiki/SoBadItsHorrible: Mark's watched classics and bad movies alike, but this is his view on ''Film/JohnCarter'', ''Keith Lemon: The Film'', ''Series/SexAndTheCity 2'', ''Film Socialisme'', ''Human Centipede'' (1 and 2), ''Film/TheHangover Part 2'', ''Film/ASerbianFilm'', the Creator/MichaelBay ''{{Film/Transformers}}'' films, ''New Year's Eve'', ''Film/{{Entourage}}'', and, oddly enough, the ''Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean'' franchise. Although Mark will challenge anybody claiming that a modern blockbuster movie is the "Worst Film Ever" to come to his house and watch some of his obscure erotic and horror movie video tapes to see the ''real'' worst films ever made; "A Nymphoid Barbarian in Dinosaur Hell", "Over-Sexed Rug Suckers From Mars", and "SS Experiment Camp" being some named examples.[[invoked]]

* CompletelyDifferentTitle: The German for dilemma is "dilemma". So naturally in Germany ''Film/TheDilemma'' is shown as ''Dickste Freunde'' -- which means ''Fat Friends''. Or less literally ''Best Friends''. This inexplicable transmogrification was riffed on by Mark and Simon. Simon thought Dickste Freunde might have stared in some straight-to-video erotic thrillers.
