Hot take: I finally watched 'Battlefield Earth' and I think it's secretly a comedy masterpiece.

Okay, hear me out. I once tried to convince my friends "The Room" was a deep look at modern relationships. They still bring it up to make fun of me. So maybe my opinion on "so bad it's good" movies is broken. But the camera tilts in that movie are so wild they have to be a joke. It feels like the director dared the actors to be as silly as possible. I'm leaning toward it being an accidental comedy, but a pretty great one.

Honestly, I just see a famously bad movie. The weird camera angles and over the top acting feel like mistakes, not clever jokes. It's more of a train wreck than a hidden gem.
