Shitty Movie Details

Share your favorite movie (and other motion picture media) details, potentially with a shitty twist.

To be clear, this is a place for satirical and meta^2^ references. Not really the actual movie details, unless they're truly stupid or have strong meme potential/background. "Oh hai Mark" kind of stuff. Tho sometimes even these can span a good debate.

For maximum funni, include full name of the movie, its release date and all the detail right in the title of the post.

Try to avoid actual shit and other nasty stuff. Mark nsfw when appropriate.

For shitty videogame details, there's !shittygamedetails@lemmy.world

Regular rules of lemmy.world apply. Have fun.

To be fair, playing air guitar well, and getting good sound is really difficult. I'm not surprised they needed to use professional air guitar players.

Agrees, it doesn't really matter how they did the stunts, the movie brought competitive air slinging to the masses. The sport was on top of the world after this movie released. It was Over The Top for air guitar.

Air Guitar World Championships are every August in Finland. Wyld Stallions walked so we could rock into space on an imaginary fire pegasus.

Do you have to bring your own air guitar or are loaners available? With airline baggage fees i won’t be able to bring mine along.

The last time I checked my air guitar it ended up as lost luggage.

That explains one of the ground crew outside the window jamming out on air guitar the last time I flew.

If you fly Hawaiian they'll check your air guitar for free.

I think you'll find they are in Oulu, Finland every year since 1996.

My fault entirely, Suomi friend! Skimmed Wikipedia and thought it said Oahu! Fixed the original.

You guys joke, but here in the land of Metal (Finland), we actually hold annual Air Guitar World Championship

Edit idk if I'd trust that link if I was someone else so here's a screen from the website
