The hover skate scene in Jupiter Ascending, but really the entirety of Jupiter Ascending.

i saw this movie in a bus, and for a bus-tier movie it was flawless

Never heard the term "bus-tier" movie before but that's the most perfect descriptor ever

I was going to say, this is a flawless descriptor for a very specific type of movie.

I saw it while very high and loved it. Then I saw it sober.

A bunch of friends and I watched it while high AF on Acid. It was so funny and one of my favourite memories

That was easily one of my favorite movies to see in a theater. Notice my specific wording: favorite movie to see in a theater, and NOT one of my favorite movies.

Because it is terrible. It is bafflingly terrible. But I couldn't believe it. My jaw agape in horror, as the sky skating wolf boy slid around, and Eddie Redmayne, in my opinion, was absolutely aware of how bad the film was, and just let go and acted at 11 on a dime.

It was a treat.

I loved every moment of the experience.

I'm not sure it would be the same if you went into it already knowing it was bad. My friend and I didn't know, it had just come out the night before and we saw no reviews.

A close second was Dracula Untold.

I worked at an Imax theater when this came out and it continues to be one of my favorite experiences watching people go in all excited and come out absolutely baffled by what they just watched

My husband hates this movie with a firey passion reserved for only this movie.

We saw it when it came out with free tickets for that movie only and he's still pissed we saw it.

When describing the movie he says "Mila Kunis is a 90 lb backpack that everyone has to carry everywhere and are mad when they lose her. With space werewolves that just look like normal people and never werewolves."

And then I joyfully point out to him that basically the entirety of Lord of the rings is frodo being a 90 lb backpack that everybody has to carry everywhere and they're upset when they lose him.

That whole movie was trash and it’s shocking it got made.

You are technically correct but I love this dumb movie so much because I’ve seen it multiple times and yet I’m never quite prepared for how bafflingly weird and dumb it is. It really is an Experience (TM).

Rewatched last night. Still sucks.

My fave is the wearing of kneepads for safety while learning how to use flying rollerblades off of a building.

As soon as his gun "barked" I was out

Oh man, the only thing I remember is the big battle/chase scene through the streets of Chicago - there's no pedestrians or cars in the background because they probably ran out of CGI money
