Trivia / Good Bad Flicks

Go To

  • Colbert Bump: The show (specifically Cecil's looks at the Easter Eggs in films like The Cabin in the Woods) has been featured several times on the Onion AV Club.
  • Executive Meddling: One of the most common things to happen to the movies that end up on the channel, especially some of the more well-known flops. A script rewritten a dozen times, filming started with a script that had no ending, rating mandates, insistence on actors wrong for the parts, taking all the wrong lessons out of test screenings, and so on. All these can contribute to a film that might have been "decent" or even "really good" dropping down into "awful." That said, sometimes the right lessons are taken out of test screenings, or the executives step in and fire an incompetent director, or come in at the last minute with extra funds to get the last few necessary scenes. It's not always bad thing...just extremely often a bad thing.
  • Keep Circulating the Tapes: His first 35 episodes have yet to be reuploaded, with Cecil citing quality issues.
  • What Could Have Been: He attempted to get on Channel Awesome, but was unsuccessful.
