Princess Bride
Really the platonic ideal of a standalone adventure movieSomething that everyone will love, like The Room or maybe Samurai Cop or maybe even Hard Ticket to Hawaii.
Depending on the group, sometimes old Jet Li flicks will work, too, like The New Legend of Shaolin / Legend of the Red Dragon which has some great baby-kung-fu.
Nothing beats the baby kung-fu in Kung Pow! Enter the Fist though.
The most frequent reasons are that the card isn’t activated, the cashier is performing the wrong transaction and the amount that is charged is greater than the balance on the card or the processing machine for credit cards is increasing the amount of charge to put an order on the card, or to let a gratuity be paid.

It’s an odd choice but Naked Lunch. Strange adaptation of a strange book. It gives everybody something to talk about.
My partner is still processing that film eight years later. She thinks she’ll be able to watch it again in another couple of years. I think I’ll keep her away from the book, whatever happens.
Just read the synopsis on Wikipedia. Eager to see it now
I just did the same. That’s a fantastic synopsis. Hope you enjoy watching it.
The book is MUCH stranger and dark. There is also the real like stuff they added in the movie.
The author shoot and killed his wife in a William Tell stunt in real life. He then fled toTangierr where he would go out have sex do drugs and come back to his room and write what became Naked Lunch.
His real life friends and authors Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac visited him collected the pages he had written showed then to a publisher and Naked Lunch was born.
The friends in the beginning who show up later to visit are based on Ginsberg and Kerouac.
Yeah, that’s the thing. When I heard they were gonna make a film of Naked Lunch my first thought was: “wtf? you can’t put that on camera.” I think they delivered a great compromise in the end.

Get something so bad that everyone comes together to make fun of it, making the night more fun in general.

The Emperor’s New Groove.
Airplane!
12 Angry Men.
The problem with Airplane is that you have to pay attention to appreciate it. That’s a little harder to do with invited guests
Get drunk first. ;-)
Or make it a movie night about the movie.
Really, you need to pay attention to any movie if you want to know what’s going on. Except for primer.
PULL THE STRINGS!
Those Magnificent Men In Their Flying Machines
An increadibly fun movie that plays with all nation’s stereotypes equally mercilessly, add a ridiculous setting and you got a brilliant movie.
Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery – because everyone loves a good whodunnit.
Except my dad. Too much talking, he would say.
Either “Tucker and Dale Versus Evil”, or “The Cabin in the Woods”.
If I want everyone to leave as quickly as possible, then “Martyrs”, Antichrist", or “A Serbian Film”.
