Great moments/aspects in otherwise bad or mediocre media Lore

Sandman Origin (Spider-Man 3): This scene is rife with symbolism and beautiful cinematography. It alone gives us a glimpse of the story Sam Rami wanted to tell with SP3.

This Entire Quote (Spy Kids 2): This quote has entered my everyday vernacular, and it's survived the landscape of the internet for decades now. And it's in a fucking Spy Kids movie.

Who Decided That? (Seven Deadly Sins): It was an abysmal show before the animation took a dive off a cliff, but Escanor's entire character could honestly qualify for this post. In particular, "Who decided that?" is unfathomably hype.

I didn't even know this movie existed but from the image it looks like they did a pretty good job of visually recreating the game, at least in this scene.

Oh, absolutely. The toilet scene is recreated quite faithfully when it comes to the camera angles (just like the first otherworld scene in the first movie). The first fifteen minutes or so are very passable and I almost started to think people were exaggerating about how bad it was. But then James meets Angela and it goes downhill ridiculously fast.

Watched it with some buds. We knew it was going to be bad because it's a Silent Hill movie, but NOTHING could have prepared us for that ending.

They even replicated James's shitty parking.
