We're rolling along with our Bad Movie Marathon, and boy is this one a doozy! Howard the Duck, for some reason, came to theaters in 1986. Why was he so randy all the time, and what did the MAM version of George Lucas have to say about the possibility of a sequel?

Just when you thought the movie’s we’ve been talking about for our Bad Movie Marathon couldn’t get any worse…’Battlefield Earth’ comes along and simply…exists. HOW does something like this happen? Join us as we painfully weep the experience of this movie and cry tears of joy over John Travolta’s involvement.
Dick Tracy was a movie that had a small bit of cultural and critical success in 1990. But how and why? And more importantly, how does it hold up after 30 years? Surely great, right? We're diving in to the weird backlot set to bring you our thoughts on Dick Tracy exclusively in the MAM VIP!
Some movies are bad, and some are historically/legendarily bad. 'Batman & Robin' certainly falls into the latter category after the franchise had a successful early 90s run. So we're continuing our Bad Movie Marathon with special guest Batman Shane to discuss every BatNip, Freeze pun & non-QWERTY keyboard featured in good ol' Batman & Robin.

What movies have disappointed us the most? What do we look for in "good editing"? What bad habits do we have that the MAM Fam doesn't know about? We're answering these questions and more from you in our monthly VIP AMA!
