Title: I need more horrible fiction!
Post by: Neonivek on October 19, 2009, 12:07:14 pm
So I watched Mystery Space Theature 3000 (13 episodes) and I am a bit sick of it for the moment.

I watch Half-life Full life Concequences series (4 installment) with the DJ Machima interpretation about 10 times (The cartoon versions only ever seem to go up to the second)

Heck I even read the "Christian Humber Reloaded" comic (based off a horrible fiction of the same name... which I might read)

((Id watch all of "My Immortal" if it was in a bearable format... but I can't stand the computer voice and everyone else either doesn't use visuals or doesn't go all the way))

Frankly I don't think I've had enough REALLY bad fiction the problem is that other then reading bad fanfics or listening to people read bad fanfics I've pretty much tapped out the barrel.

Does anyone know of anything WITH visuals (Heck being read a fanfic with pictures thrown in is great) that is just soo horribly written or concieved that it somehow reaches new heights of comedy? No computer voices, those were always horrible.

 Alas, I cannot think of anything with visuals. However, you forgot to add The Price of Sexy Love. (http://www.gaiaonline.com/forum/original-stories-prose/my-book-the-price-of-sexy-love-new-banner/t.44042817/) It's on Gaia Online. You know it'll be horrible. Fortunately this is horrible for all the right reasons.

 Although I do wish you good luck on the search. I just hope you can get a horrible fanfic that doesn't degrade into horrible, horrible sex scenes.

Unfortunately yeah... a lot of these popular horrible fanfics seem to be about sex. Which I am not too interested in.

My Immortal is unique because the sex scenes are freekishly short and hillariously described "He put his man parts in my woman parts"

Highlander 2: Directors Cut. Totally spastically horrible.

Also, you might want to hear, down the same alley, some of the Arnold Schwarzenegger monologues (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arHnr691xyU&feature=related) that come in between (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JDxrhnbVLk&feature=related) the band Austrian Death Machine's songs (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DkXdXP596Lo&feature=related) (all of which are about Arnold Schwarzenegger, they have an unhealthy obsession with that guy).

Check out some of the reviews from the Nostalgia Critic on That Guy With The Glasses (http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/).

Even though they are reviews it has the perfect balance of horribly written or conceived movies that somehow reaches new heights of comedy combined with the NC's own opinions.

Looks like I'm blind as well as...  Whatever else it is I may be.

Well, someone brought up a movie, so I suppose I can recommend The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra.  It's B-movie satire, and I know that I at least howled while watching it.  But it's not for everyone.


I think someone did a reading of Squirrelking's Metal Gear Solid fanfiction.  It's basically just a bunch of images like with John Stalvern's Last Stand, and the reading isn't as epic as the one from the FLC series.


There was something else...  But damn if I can remember what it was.

Anything that starts with the lines

"It was a spaceshiop. Galactic. The captain was in his thirtyfive, and a conspiracy was abroad. What was it?"

has to be good.  One of the best terrible fanfictions I've ever seen.  Now I have to listen to it again.

http://www.fanfictionmysterytheatre.com/1-1_metroid_conspircy.html

In fact there's a bunch of terrible horrible fanfics on that site.(Including Doom: Repercussions of Evil)

The same author also did a series about metroid and high school.  Normally I'd pass this off as an amusing troll...except the spelling and grammar mistakes drastically reduced in Episode 8(Which was made about 2 years after the first 7).  This person frankly scares me now.

PS
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
  Yes I know it makes no sense whatsoever.

http://www.fanfictionmysterytheatre.com/1-1_metroid_conspircy.html

I just read a quick passage from that, and I'm almost certain it's a joke.  I mean, come on.  "Homophoner"?  "It may.  May may may.  Mayday"?  That's just blatant.  I'm not seeing many signs of legitimacy here.

Still though, I'll make sure to read it.  Horrible literature is almost always enjoyable in some form or another.

EDIT:  Dude...
Quote from: The Metroid Conspiracy: Pasts of the Sin
Samus and ridley were burst on the houston ship, but there were fucking metorids all over the place.

After this, I don't really care if it's fake or not.  That's an epic quote.

Is where the person posts stuff.  Take special note of chapter 8 of the high school one.  It's actually somewhat coherant.  Almost like the person improved slightly at writing.  It's disturbing.
Title: Re: I need more horrible fiction!
Post by: Kagus on October 20, 2009, 02:13:42 am
Yeah...  Just finished reading the whole thing, and it's definitely a hoax.  Not a shadow of doubt in my mind.

Shame...  I know there must be some "real" fanfics out there that are hilariously bad...  Or heck, I'd settle for more trolls who are as good as Squirrelking.  Man, that guy truly was a king...


But yeah, those Metroid fanfics are certified jokes.  Nothing to worry about, except perhaps for they just don't make trolls like they used to.
Title: Re: I need more horrible fiction!
Post by: Neonivek on October 20, 2009, 11:44:05 am
Well Squirlking wasn't faking it at first. He was likely faking it during the 3rd and 4th chapter or he simply stopped caring about spelling/grammar.

Though the best part is that Squirlking actually at LEAST knew how a story should be formulated. He included real emotional drama which is rare in bad fiction... usually they just ignore it quite quickly (Christian Humber Reloaded for example just uhhh... Lets just say there is one emotion that is paid any attention to)

That and I love his use of grandious language and certain uses of words that I don't get enough of because it is too darned rare.

So from what I can understand... Great bad fiction have SOME aspects of good writing or even great writing.

Though MST3k and Retsupurae take legitimately bad things and poke fun at them while they are playing. (though I don't always agree with Retsupurae)

The neverending story got sequels? Someone didn't understand the idea behind that title. As for fanfic, here's a link to the RP forum of an space MMOG based on something suspiciously like excel spreadsheets. (http://forum.astroempires.com/viewforum.php?f=18&sid=d0e5bf71ef4531ea38092f39eaddbd82)
Yes, some of my stuff is buried deep in that archive, I was part of the absolutely horrible thread that started it (Back when i was, like, 11, and halfway through learning English.) and the semi-decent one that established the community there. Then there were new guys that couldn't write readable english and I left.

Echoes of War
By Cthulhu

Chapter 1: A New Threat

The year is 1969. In Vietnam there is a military base in the jungles of Vietnam. Sitting in the bar in that base, drinking Tequila with no sugar, is a man. That man is Dash Gunmetal. That's Staff Sergeant Dash Gunmetal to you. Dash wears a black trenchcoat, a black cowboy hat, and a pair of dark sunglasses. His boots are made of snakeskin and have spikes made of alligator teeth. A .huge calibore revolver sits in a holster at his side. He has knives.
Suddenly, Commander Wolf Grayskull enters the bar. "Gunmetal!" he says, "We need you to assassinate the Vietcong leader, General Snakeeyes!"
Dash removes his sunglasses. "I already know that." He says, and takes off his sunglasses.
"Of course, Gunmetal. I forgot you have the gift of foresight." Commander Grayskull says apologetically. Dash pushes up his sunglasses out of his eyes and peers at Grayskull with eyes that had no pupils. For Dash is a vampire.
Dash finishes off his bottle of vodka and walks out. He loads his revolver and jumps into the air. His vampire powers allow him to jump all the way out of the base and into the jungle. But it's not a jungle. The Vietcong have used nanobots to turn Vietnam into a futuristic city. Dash takes off his sunglasses, since it's nighttime now, and walks into a seedy bar.
"Where is General Snakeeyes?" He asks viciously. The bartender pulls out a gun! Quick as lightning, quick as a cobra, quick as a barracuda, quick as a moray eel, quick as a sea anemone, quick as a fast, Dash pulls out his knives and cuts the bartender's throat. Everyone pulls out katanas. Dash knows he'll need to see well, so he takes off his sunglasses. It is time to kill.

Chapter 2: Visions of the Past

Dash Gunskull draws his revolver and shoots the first guy. He is blown in half. Another guy jumps from a balcony with a katana and dash parries and knocks the katana out of his hand and slashes him in the chest and then cuts his arms off and then cuts off his head. He shoots another guy behind him, and it goes in slow motion. Three guys shoot at him with machineguns and he bends down to dodge the bullets like in the Matrix. One of the bullets hits his sunglasses and they break.
"Now I'm angry" he says and jumps on the guy and drinks his blood. The blood gives him superspeed and he kills another guy with his claws. He kills more people with his claws, until only one guy is left. Dash picks him up and slams him against the wall. "Where is General Snakeeyes?!"
"I don't speak English" he responded. Gunmetal, disappointed, blows him up with his mind powers because he has mind powers. He walks outside and sees a tower in the distance. It says in neon letters THE HOME OF GENERAL SNAKEEYES.

Chapter 3: A Dark Revelation

Dash jumped to the top of the tower and subdued the guards. Then he killed them. He walked down the stairs into General Snakeeyes Throne Room. But General Snakeeyes wasn't no longer General of the Vietcong. He was now king of Vietnam.
"I am no longer General of the Vietcong, I am now King of Vietnam!" he said from atop his pet dragon. Using his super-vision, Dash saw that Snakeeyes wasn't a human. He was a terminator and also a vampire. Snakeeyes' dragon breathed fire at Dash, and Dash jumped out of the way. The dragon turned into a werewolf and charged at him. Dash fought hard and tried to avoid being bitten because werewolf poison is poisonous. He slashed it in the paw and it howled. It slashed him in the hand he howled. Its poison was now in his veins. He shot it in the head and it exploded, sending shrapnel everywhere. Dash was wounded. General Snakeeyes would have to wait for another day. Dash jumped out the window, but landed on the ground safely, for he was a vampire. He pushed a button in his pocket that called his car to him. It drove up and he got in. He drove 100 miles an hour away, but there were cars chasing him. He leaned out and shot a car. It exploded. The other cars started shooting at him and he dodged through a fruit stand. He knew he had to go faster to get away, so he pushed a button on the car's dashboard. It turned into a motorcycle. He went 200 miles an hour now. The cars did the same, and now he was in a motorcycle chase. He turned at an exit ramp and ended up on a giant deathrace track where the track was a hundred feet off the ground and looped and stuff. It was time to kill.

Chapter 4: Dangerous Knowledge

Dash drove down the racetrack with the motorcycles behind him. He used an oil slick and one of the motorcycles fell into a pit full of robot sharks. He died. Dash ramped off of a ramp and did a 180. He opened the roof of his motorcycle, because it was one of those enclosed motorcycles like in Spyhunter. He pulled out his revolver and shot two of the motorcycles before turning around and landed on the ground. There was only one motorcycle left and it could fly. Dash tried to get away but it shot missiles at him. He dodged them and they hit a school bus.
"No!" Dash shouted, and remembered his secret weapon. He jumped out of the motorcycle and pulled off his sunglasses. He pushed a button and they started beeping. He threw them like a boomerang and they hit the flying motorcycle. They stuck to it and it used an EMP to shut it down. He ran away for in thirty seconds they would explode and they were a nuclear bomb. At 29 seconds he jumped forward and dove to the ground as they exploded, blowing up General Snakeeyes city of evil.


Chapter 5: Shadows of the Future

Dash returned to the base, but it was destroyed and on fire. He ran to Commander Grayskull, but he was dead.
"Ha ha ha, I have the Dragonball Z!" King Snakeyes cackled. Dash turned around and saw him holding a magical star. "You fool! It was here in your base and I have it to make a wish!" He said. He flew away.
"I swear, King Snakeeyes, I'll revenge you for what you've done" Dash said, and threw his sunglasses to the ground in anger.

To be continued?

Also as for My Immortal

Ebony isn't so much a Mary sue as a Jerk "Relationship" Sue

She tends not to be very perfect beyond the fact that the world revolves around her and that she is apperantly the center of everything.

Heck if you notice... she is incapable of injuring people even with a gun! (that never seems to run out of bullets)

Though I havn't got far enough... maybe she shows her magical supperiority over everyone else much later... because where I am... she actually doesn't do much... most things are solved either by someone else's magic or the fact that everyone is inlove with her (EVERYONE!)

These guys do a wonderful reading, but it's best to read the fanfic itself along with them.  Partyl so you don't miss out, and partly because it can be a little difficult to hear what they're saying from time to time.

Besides... Robot Chicken is sort of a different type of "Horrible Fiction" then what I am speaking about.

Robot Chicken is intentionally horrible and is also intentionally trying to be funny.

For something to apply for this topic it needs to be funny in a way the original author didn't intend. Robot Chicken is funny for all the reasons the authors intended.

For example the Wickerman (the newest one) is a horror movie. It is also an unintentional Comedy. It would count for this topic.

Well, I remember seeing Final Destination 3 ages ago on TV...

It was a horror film, and it had everything.  Breasts, awesome gore, bad acting and some truly hilarious plot warps (there's one segment in the film where the two lead characters try to decipher clues from a photo.  They start making connections with the pennants hanging over the heads of two people, blissfully unaware of the fact that one of those two people is POINTING A GUN AT THE OTHER.  Seriously, just watch it, you'll understand).

I'd recommend watching with people who can rip on it with you.  A glorious experience, indeed.
