If You Are A True Film Buff Then You Must Remember These 50 Bad Movie Details
You can't tell us they're not factual
Box office earnings are the most obvious way to measure a film's popularity. If many people are lining up to see your movie, then it must mean you made a good film, right?
However, commercial success does not equal critical success. For a movie to be considered good, it must also receive positive reviews from trustworthy film critics.
Some say critic ratings are the true metric of a good movie. After all, there is nothing more validating than an expert's opinion of your creation.
You could also argue that awards and accolades dictate how a movie is remembered in history. Take the annual Cannes Film Festival, for example.
The award-giving body presents the Palme d'Or to the best film of that year. The Palme d'Or is considered to be the most prestigious award in the movie industry.
It goes without saying that winning at Cannes, or even just being nominated for their awards, is proof of a movie's excellence. But is it the measure of a movie's worth?
These days, nothing resonates more with the viewing public than trending on the internet. If your movie goes viral, you're pretty much guaranteed an audience.
If your movie is memorialized through memes, then you know you have a place among the greats. Fans even post hilarious bad movie takes after their tenth viewing of your film when they notice an odd detail they can spin into something else entirely. Here are some of the funniest movie "facts" cinephiles have shared:

It is true that common internet folks are not as sophisticated as critics or a panel of industry experts, but you can count on them to find the most interesting things about a movie. They will hold screening parties and include your film in their annual rewatch list if it's good or meme-able enough.
Becoming a meme probably isn't the goal of many talented actors and directors, but it's certainly a way fans are showing their appreciation. We can't wait for the next set of bad movie details that movie lovers will share, which will surely entertain us.
