That’s awful. I hope I never see that movie (then I’ll feel even worse for laughing).
I think Pat Benatar’s Hell is For Children was supposed to come off really tough and raise awareness and stuff, but it’s just so corny-sounding to me.

There are lots of goofy things in DC comics (there’s an entire issue of Ambush Bug devoted to them, in fact), but one of the stupidest, to me, was the villain Egg Fu, the nemesis of Wonder Woman. He’s basically a giant egg with a face, a sort of Fu Manvhu version of Humpty Dumpty. It’s impossible to take at all seriously, especially when he speaks in that racist “Chinese” accent. Racist AND Silly. It’s a wonder Wonder Woman didn’t die of embarrassment.
Don’t look for him in any upcoming WW movie.
The chorus makes no sense! Why is hell for children? Heaven is for children. Hell is for the abusers of children. It makes no sense!
Well, Heaven Is For Children doesn’t sound bad-ass at all.
Because hell, children are in hell
And you know that their little lives* can become such a mess
Hell, don’t put kids in hell
And you shouldn’t have to pay for your love
With your bones and your flesh
Easy peasy! 
*I always thought the word was “lies”, as in, it’s hard to keep the lies straight. “Tell grandma you fell off the swing.” Makes more sense that way.
There’s an early episode of STNG where the bridge crew is looking at a sun. Picard or somebody says pull up the “eclipse” protector wherein a black circle comes up on screen and blots out the sun to keep the bridge crew from being blinded from LOOKING AT A SCREEN MONITOR!
You wouldn’t want the home viewer to get a sunburn would you? 
Thank you!
A fitting comparison - the screenplay was written by Lorenzo Semple, who was a writer/editor for Batman.
Oh good - I’ve got the correct thread this time, and not posting this in the Post-CF and Outgoing Trump Outrages thread…
So’s, I was apologizing to Robert, but - your Great Santini was way too insufferably, tediously, face-punchingly ass-face*-ish to take seriously.
Jesus.
Poor Blythe. <<<<<< second time mentioning Bythe Danner in same thread!!! Somehow!
*totally obscure CSC reference. 
A thread can never have too much Blythe Danner. If that’s not in the SDMB rules, it should be.
Well, its Official. I’ve seen it all.
Most of Pat Benatar’s videos were ‘Cheese Level: Wisconsin’.
Cher’s “Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)”, if anything, detracted from the gravity of firearm homicide. (If it even was actual homicide in this song, or just a goofy metaphor for either desertion or abuse or something.)
I caught this song on the 70s Sirius XM station this morning. I’d never heard it before, but I think it might fit here.
Now that is the kind of embarrassing cheez I like to hear!
Hey, now, don’t you be dissing Love Is A Battlefield and that awesome scene of the escort/prostitutes scaring off their pimp with sassy shoulder shimmies and an epic dance break.
…or the pimp’s freaked-out sneer.
Should we discuss Shadows of the Night?
No, probably not.
As long as we’re taking a stroll down 80s memory lane, how many remember a cheesy little miniseries call Lace which featured Phoebe Cates delivering the saucy line “Which one of you bitches is my mother?”
It was meant to be scandalous(“the word"bitch” wasn’t thrown around quite so freely on tv in 1984) and dramatic but it made people - at least in my school- laugh , and people were gleefully mocking it all week.
The masterful camerawork that ends Reflections in a Golden Eye
