This movie is going to be SO bad that I'm actually gonna shell out $10 to see it. Just so I can say I lived through the horror.

When mine doesn't go all the way down I help it and punt the lil **** out the window. GG <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
Well, anything's possible. In a world where someone can percieve a slinky as a "vaguely phallic childhood 'toy'" (one shudders to think of what their used <i>their</i> slinkies for, as children. But I digress) its entirely plausibly that someone else could make a decent movie out of it.
Vaguely phallic? Oh, man, I'll never look at a slinky the same way <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo-->
I'm assumingthe main character will be wearing a hat. and have eyes. And how exactly will they show dead slinkys? (slinkies?) will they be all twisted up? That always happened to my slinkies. (slinkys?) The horror... The horror...

But as to the slinky movie - no. Flubber's done it already, with Robin Williams, and you can't really expect to improve on that..
Im going to make a special movie on Mr.Rubberbandman
hes going to go on adventure with Mr.Stapler and the Planters Peanut guy with the monicle and the tophat.

Come on guys! Is this REALLY such an absurd idea considering all of the crazy stuff that's been on the silver screen? I mean, this really isn't such a bad idea as, say, making John Travolta an alien, trying to associate white rappers with fighting turtles, or putting J-Lo anywhere NEAR a camera? I mean come on! I consider myself to know a thing or 2 about bad movies, and this is nowhere near the worst idea ever, and even if it sucks it is absolutely garunteed to be entertaining at the very least.

Y'know, Slinkies are a lot like most people. Utterly useless, but you can't help but giggle when you give 'em a nice push and let them tumble down three flights of stairs. <span style='font-size:8pt;line-height:100%'>Old quote, not made myself, yes I'm fully aware.

I'd just watch J-lo fall down the stairs. Errr. Hmm.
They need to make a movie about a walking, talking shark who wears pants and has a cell phone. His name can be Charlie. He can get in lots of hilarous antics, adventures, and end up saving the world from the evil Brenda, the talking camel of doom. Yep.
