Birdemic, that cat was good because, I mean...
He fits my criteria of a good guest because it was horrible.
And the movie was horrible.
And that's what you want.
What you don't want is the middle in anything.
You want really bad or really good.
And he was really bad.
It's like a song.
You want a song to be so bad that it's actually entertaining versus like, eh, or you want it to kick ass.
You never want to live in the middle.
The middle's no fun at all.
And Birdamic and the guy, I can't remember the guy who did it, but I remember a couple things.
I explained to him, he was from like Vietnam or something, and he was explaining to me that these birds of prey
These hawks and these vultures, they come down and start attacking citizens in a beach town.
And I said, well, I don't think a vulture is a bird of prey.
I think it's a scavenger.
And he was like, I'm pretty sure it's a bird of prey.
And then I was like, I'm pretty sure it's a scavenger, technically.
uh vultures don't take down animals they just pick at their carcasses and he said i'm pretty sure it's a bird of prey and we looked it up and it was a scavenger so i fucked with this whole movie premise wait is this one of these movies that's so bad that it actually is a cult classic and people go to see it i think this one might be too bad to be a cult classic but the the point is is i think the fact that he's serious about it it's sort of like the uh was it william hung
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
