This movie was filmed in Montreal right near my house. We found out that inside scenes were being filmed at an old shopping center that was gonna be torn down soon. So every night my friends and I would ride there with our bikes, sit down on the ground next to the secured gate and just watch the flickering blue lights go on and off. It was so cool but the coolest thing is when we first saw Travolta walk to his trailer with his full suit on. It scared the shit outta us but he actually came up to us and said hi. Seriously one of the coolest experiences of my life. Yeah the movie sucked but I’ll never forget those days. Great memories!
My ex girlfriend was a Sci Fi buff and begged to go see Battlefield Earth in the theatre. We went on a rainy night and 15 minutes into the film, the entire place lost power due to a lightning strike. We were saved!
The director of this movie also worked as a set decorator for the first Star Wars movie and the first Alien movie... in fact he helped design the LIGHTSABER and R2D2, two of the most popular things affiliated with Star Wars, he then won an Oscar for Best Art Direction, so technically the director of this movie is an “Oscar winner” just not in the way you would think at first.
My favourite part about this is that John Travolta was pumped about this film and they were in talks to make a sequel, sort of assuming that it would do awesome. Then... people saw it. Lol.
Prior to its release, the head of Franchise Pictures (the company who made the movie), Elie Samaha, said of the film, “It’s going to make people in Hollywood take notice of Elie Samaha. I’m not going to be the laughing stock anymore.”
He had to be mad before watching cause half the shit he complains about is explained in film or is made obvious intentionally. Kind of makes me doubt his intelligence

@@TheTeufelhunden68 The book itself has some flaws, but it's decent enough. But it's very long, and it's more of a parody than serious sci-fi. It could be turned into a good movie, but it would need to be very different to this one. And you'd need to film multiple parts because you couldn't properly tell the story in just one movie.
@cumquatrct3 I was aware that there was supposed to be a followup to Battlefield Earth, but the original left out so many important parts of the story that it didn't make any sense. There's a reason Terl needs Humans as miners, and a reason why Terl doesn't understand Humans at all. But the film doesn't really explain this, and it makes it a much weaker film overall. I think the film would have done better if it had started in an earlier time period, shortly before the invasion. It could have started with the launch of Voyager, followed that with the Psychlos discovering Voyager and learning where Earth is and the fact they can find gold there, and then shown the invasion, including desperate scenes of nuclear bombs being used to blow up the invading forces. That could be followed up with the final scene of the Earth being covered by poisonous gas delivered by giant spacecraft. After that, they could have shown the Chinkos being sent to Earth to preserve Human books and buildings, as well as learn Human languages and culture. They could show them recording their information, and then being exterminated as a race by the Psychlos for being useless. All of that might have taken 15 - 20 minutes, but it would have explained a lot of the background the film is missing in a "show, don't tell" method. Because ultimately, films should be about storytelling, and even though Battlefield Earth has many weaknesses, I'd argue that not telling the story well would be it's worst.

Look, I'm not trying to defend L. Ron Hubbard or his batshit crazy "religion", but I will say that psychiatry, or rather the broader field of psychology, is a field that has earned a certain level of distrust. Not that I believe any of the shit that Hubbard tried to push, but I'll say that his distrust of psychiatry was not unfounded.
@@TH3F4LC0Nx I'm a former psychology major and I'm curious...what are some of your issues with psychology/psychiatry? I know about the misuse of psychology/psychiatry in the past (lobotomies, electroshock "treatment", "conversion" therapy, etc...) But I think today psychology has recognized its mistakes and is self correcting. Again just curious.
Ok, I just wanna preface what I'm about to say here by saying I don't mean to offend you, or anyone else who is interested in psychology. I, myself, at one time wanted to be a psychology major. Anyway, here goes: psychology is 10% science and 90% bullshit. Why is psychology like that, you may ask? For the simple reason that psychology is separate from all other branches of science in that the thing being studied is the exact same thing as the tools used to study it. By that, I mean that psychology, as you doubtless already know, is the study of the human mind. What do we use to study the human mind with? Other human minds. The human mind is an immensely complex thing; it is also fallible and subject to bias. That's why psychology has led to many dangerous theories in the past that have no actual basis in reality. Psychology is unique among the sciences in that the burden of proof often rests not on the person making a claim to prove that claim to be true, but rather on others to prove that claim untrue. Psychology is a reversal of the normal way in which theories are tested. Take, for example, Sigmund Freud. Freud is the granddaddy of analytical psychology; even people who know nothing about psychology know his name. At one time, his books were treated as gospel; now, they're recognized for what they were. That is, complete crap. As a psychology major, you probably already know that no institution of any merit would EVER use Sigmund Freud as a citation or reference in any article or paper today. So much of what he postulated has been revealed to be utter garbage. As an example, take penis envy. That one is just hilarious by today's standards, being a blatantly sexist male fantasy. Today, we know that penis envy is total shit. Karen Horney, however, postulated womb envy as a rebuttal to Freud's theory. Is there any evidence for that one either? Of course not! Both of those things are just people thinking that if they articulate and give voice to things which they would like to be true, that that will make them true. It doesn't. An even bigger imbecile who is still revered today is Carl Jung. Half of everything that guy said is EXTREMELY misogynistic and racist, (not to mention the fact that he was dangerously close to being an all-out Nazi!). I mean really; the Anima, the Shadow? Do those things even exist, or are they just the ramblings of a deeply sexist man who disparaged women every chance he got? I should add here that I am, above all else, an individualist. I do not believe that a person's nature is determined by either their race or their gender. Yes, there are things that are distinct between men and women; women, in general, tend to feel emotion more deeply than men, but then again, there are plenty of women out there who don't. That's because people are individuals who cannot be defined by any one thing. When I read shit by Carl Jung in which he says things like, "It is not in a woman's nature to...(insert whatever you wish)", that just pisses me off, because one woman is not comparable to another. That's another problem I have with psychology; it tries to relegate the human mind, a thing that is largely unique to every person, into categories that can be easily defined. Life isn't that simple. But psychology is a field that people who have some wild-ass agenda flock to because it allows them to say whatever they wish, because when you're dealing with intangible concepts, it's very difficult to objectively argue. Take, for example, Jordan Peterson, (who, I might add, is an ardent disciple of Carl Jung, which really explains a lot, actually...). Anyway, there is a video you can see on RUclips of Peterson giving a lecture in which he makes a STUNNINGLY insipid claim. He claims in this video that the symbol of two entwined snakes, a symbol that can be found in artwork the world over, is actually a representation of the double-helix of DNA, which ancient peoples discovered by taking hallucinogenic drugs and mind-tripping their way to a scientific discovery that was not actually made until centuries later. I'm not kidding, he actually thinks that! It couldn't be that snakes entwine themselves together when mating. No, that would be too boring. Occam's Razor goes out the window with Peterson! Anyway, to wrap this up, I'll just say that I distrust psychology because it is a field of study where things that are at one time accepted as truth are then thrown out later on down the road. Yes, all sciences are constantly evolving, but psychology takes it to a whole new level. How can you trust something now that will likely be tossed out later?
This movie is crap, but the book is amazing. They changed so much...every plot hole in the movie was created for the movie. Wish they had made the book into a movie.
I love how most of the Hilariocity films involve a "John" of some kind: Battlefield Earth: Johnnie (The hero) and John Travolta The Room: Johnny (Tommy Wiseau) The Wicker Man: The film was devoted to Johnny Ramone Steel: John Henry Irons (Shaq) Mortal Kombat Annihilation: Johnny Cage Batman and Robin: John Glover as the mad doctor The upcoming Vampire's Kiss review: Johnny Walker (actor)
As a former crew chief on an F-15, I found the harriers working after 1000 years the worst part of the movie. If you let those planes sit for a year, you have to replace practically everything, not to mention 1000 years.
Even leaving an ordinary car in storage for a few years, even at a steady temperature indoors, off its wheels and sitting on good jack stands, will cause it to deteriorate. Every bell and seal will need replacement if it’s a decade or two. Must be much worse with a jet airplane.
Oh exactly The fuel itself would be a thousand years old so we know that didn't work And they were just fueled so where'd they get the fuel from But yeah being a thousand years old I couldn't match that either But they had to have flying craft from somewhere you know and That's when the Dim with writer We'll put harriers in it Because you couldn't think of any other kind of aircraft But there was some funny moments I thought we're good It always echo these things But it was says well overtooth Transfer But yeah the entire fight in the nuclear weapon and blowing up the planet It was not exactly well fought out Cool concept was really stupid people writing it Well see this radiation kills the planet's atmosphere Although you're gonna send a nuclear bomb, and this is the one in blue and the whole planet up OK, let's think about this for a minute. There is a planet floating around in the universe somewhere in the same kind of thing that we are that has caused me background radiation everywhere And yet one little tiny nuclear bomb that you can carry in your hands Is it going to blow the whole planet up That was really poorly thought out cool effect The whole rider through the breath gas exploding And then think about it's out in space with s***Tons of radiation that makes it nuclear bomb look Is tiny and weak But yet it doesn't explode They didn't think that very well at all And the whole gold thing in fort knox was kind of funny too I thought that was hilarious Because you would think if they had that kind of technology. You could just jump from anywhere right there immediately They'd have better ways of detecting gold and see it in fort knox But still it was cool effect that way. They didn't know to worry about anything was all there Not very wealth all out But there was some cool effects in the whole story. Light about aliens on the planet was kind of funny and It was kind of cool idea They got ruined by but you're stupid Or well

This performance ended up being what inspired John Travolta's character in the fanatic. He thought to himself, "they think it can't get worse than this...they're wrong."

The guy that directed Battlefield Earth Roger Christian did the visual effects for Star Wars (1977) and won an Oscar for it. WTF!!! how did he mess up Battlefield Earth so much
***** Haha that's funny that you mention that because I only actually noticed him say fuck once. I'm sure you're right but somehow I never even notice it. I saw Wolf of Wall Street and afterward ppl were talking about how many f words there were, and I thought about it and thought yeah that's probably true, but never noticed that many during the movie. Whatever, it's just another word.
midnight15086 Actually, he said it at least 20 times. It was/is pretty crazy considering how much he tries to keep his reviews clean...I guess Battlefield Earth can just do that to any person who subjects themselves to it. :) LOL
I had the displeasure of watching this in theaters, and have never walked out of a movie so I actually forced myself to sit through it. Now that's will-power, because I felt like gouging out my eyes after a little while. Many people did walk out of the movie though, and I kind of was like jealous of them everytime someone got up and walked out...
Christopher Rodriguez Actually have you seen the way it was advertised? "Based on one of the best Sci-Fi books of all time." That with the celebrity cast is bound to make SOME money. It still didn't meet the budget of the actual film, so it was still a bomb.
George Salisbury Although technically, a subsequent lawsuit discovered that the film only cost around $45 million to make and that the production company essentially stole the remainder. They were eventually found guilty, had to pay a settlement and finally filed for bankruptcy.

In the name of the king 3 where the main character doesn't give a shit about anything including seeing a dragon or House of the dead the funny version (Uwe take on directors cut) he takes House of the Dead an already shitty movie he made and tries to make funny by adding fart jokes, outakes and random humor in the middle of scenes and the commentary is even worse,
It IS a creepy movie, especially the scenes with Travolta and Whitaker. On the other hand, those two really just looked like giant muppets. Or maybe ALF.
It’s not a religion. Religions worship a God. It’s a very convoluted financial scam that only acquired “religion” status because that receives tax breaks.
Connor notyerbidness : too bad that the Psychlos never learned the animals (humans) language. Plus it was only Johnny that he watched, as the Psycho food (and breathe gas, their ‘air’) was toxic to humans and he needed Johnny to learn so he could get this huge deposit of gold that was missed by the first Psycho raids. That Fort Knox gold was long gone. Johnny was barely clothed, starving after being in the caged area once used to keep bears, and he had no hunting nor survival gear after it was all taken away.

Ron Hubbard or his batshit crazy "religion", but I will say that psychiatry, or rather the broader field of psychology, is a field that has earned a certain level of distrust. Not that I believe any of the shit that Hubbard tried to push, but I'll say that his distrust of psychiatry was not unfounded.
@@TH3F4LC0Nx I'm a former psychology major and I'm curious...what are some of your issues with psychology/psychiatry? I know about the misuse of psychology/psychiatry in the past (lobotomies, electroshock "treatment", "conversion" therapy, etc...) But I think today psychology has recognized its mistakes and is self correcting. Again just curious.
Ok, I just wanna preface what I'm about to say here by saying I don't mean to offend you, or anyone else who is interested in psychology. I, myself, at one time wanted to be a psychology major. Anyway, here goes: psychology is 10% science and 90% bullshit. Why is psychology like that, you may ask? For the simple reason that psychology is separate from all other branches of science in that the thing being studied is the exact same thing as the tools used to study it. By that, I mean that psychology, as you doubtless already know, is the study of the human mind. What do we use to study the human mind with? Other human minds. The human mind is an immensely complex thing; it is also fallible and subject to bias. That's why psychology has led to many dangerous theories in the past that have no actual basis in reality. Psychology is unique among the sciences in that the burden of proof often rests not on the person making a claim to prove that claim to be true, but rather on others to prove that claim untrue. Psychology is a reversal of the normal way in which theories are tested. Take, for example, Sigmund Freud. Freud is the granddaddy of analytical psychology; even people who know nothing about psychology know his name. At one time, his books were treated as gospel; now, they're recognized for what they were. That is, complete crap. As a psychology major, you probably already know that no institution of any merit would EVER use Sigmund Freud as a citation or reference in any article or paper today. So much of what he postulated has been revealed to be utter garbage. As an example, take penis envy. That one is just hilarious by today's standards, being a blatantly sexist male fantasy. Today, we know that penis envy is total shit. Karen Horney, however, postulated womb envy as a rebuttal to Freud's theory. Is there any evidence for that one either? Of course not! Both of those things are just people thinking that if they articulate and give voice to things which they would like to be true, that that will make them true. It doesn't. An even bigger imbecile who is still revered today is Carl Jung. Half of everything that guy said is EXTREMELY misogynistic and racist, (not to mention the fact that he was dangerously close to being an all-out Nazi!). I mean really; the Anima, the Shadow? Do those things even exist, or are they just the ramblings of a deeply sexist man who disparaged women every chance he got? I should add here that I am, above all else, an individualist. I do not believe that a person's nature is determined by either their race or their gender. Yes, there are things that are distinct between men and women; women, in general, tend to feel emotion more deeply than men, but then again, there are plenty of women out there who don't. That's because people are individuals who cannot be defined by any one thing. When I read shit by Carl Jung in which he says things like, "It is not in a woman's nature to...(insert whatever you wish)", that just pisses me off, because one woman is not comparable to another. That's another problem I have with psychology; it tries to relegate the human mind, a thing that is largely unique to every person, into categories that can be easily defined. Life isn't that simple. But psychology is a field that people who have some wild-ass agenda flock to because it allows them to say whatever they wish, because when you're dealing with intangible concepts, it's very difficult to objectively argue. Take, for example, Jordan Peterson, (who, I might add, is an ardent disciple of Carl Jung, which really explains a lot, actually...). Anyway, there is a video you can see on RUclips of Peterson giving a lecture in which he makes a STUNNINGLY insipid claim. He claims in this video that the symbol of two entwined snakes, a symbol that can be found in artwork the world over, is actually a representation of the double-helix of DNA, which ancient peoples discovered by taking hallucinogenic drugs and mind-tripping their way to a scientific discovery that was not actually made until centuries later. I'm not kidding, he actually thinks that! It couldn't be that snakes entwine themselves together when mating. No, that would be too boring. Occam's Razor goes out the window with Peterson! Anyway, to wrap this up, I'll just say that I distrust psychology because it is a field of study where things that are at one time accepted as truth are then thrown out later on down the road. Yes, all sciences are constantly evolving, but psychology takes it to a whole new level. How can you trust something now that will likely be tossed out later?

Hee hee
As a former crew chief on an F-15, I found the harriers working after 1000 years the worst part of the movie. If you let those planes sit for a year, you have to replace practically everything, not to mention 1000 years.
Even leaving an ordinary car in storage for a few years, even at a steady temperature indoors, off its wheels and sitting on good jack stands, will cause it to deteriorate. Every bell and seal will need replacement if it’s a decade or two. Must be much worse with a jet airplane.
Makes you realize how much of USA and Russia tanks, fighters, and vehicles in storage simply don't work anymore
Oh exactly
The fuel itself would be a thousand years old so we know that didn't work
And they were just fueled so where'd they get the fuel from
But yeah being a thousand years old I couldn't match that either
But they had to have flying craft from somewhere you know and
That's when the Dim with writer
We'll put harriers in it
Because you couldn't think of any other kind of aircraft
But there was some funny moments I thought we're good
It always echo these things
But it was says well overtooth Transfer
But yeah the entire fight in the nuclear weapon and blowing up the planet
It was not exactly well fought out
Cool concept was really stupid people writing it
Well see this radiation kills the planet's atmosphere
Although you're gonna send a nuclear bomb, and this is the one in blue and the whole planet up
OK, let's think about this for a minute. There is a planet floating around in the universe somewhere in the same kind of thing that we are that has caused me background radiation everywhere
And yet one little tiny nuclear bomb that you can carry in your hands
Is it going to blow the whole planet up
That was really poorly thought out cool effect
The whole rider through the breath gas exploding
And then think about it's out in space with s***Tons of radiation that makes it nuclear bomb look Is tiny and weak
But yet it doesn't explode
They didn't think that very well at all
And the whole gold thing in fort knox was kind of funny too I thought that was hilarious
Because you would think if they had that kind of technology. You could just jump from anywhere right there immediately
They'd have better ways of detecting gold and see it in fort knox
But still it was cool effect that way. They didn't know to worry about anything was all there
Not very wealth all out
But there was some cool effects in the whole story. Light about aliens on the planet was kind of funny and
It was kind of cool idea
They got ruined by but you're stupid
Or well

Sorry for your experience!
This performance ended up being what inspired John Travolta's character in the fanatic. He thought to himself, "they think it can't get worse than this...they're wrong."
That movie at least got some laughs out of me. This movie made me want to go back to school after calling in sick.
Yeah but The Fanatic was actually terribly entertaining but this movie…. I’d rather stare at a white wall for 2 hours instead of this shit

He's not even bad in this he just ahs an aweful script and director to work with. There was nothing good to be made out of this.
The monkey guy's actor went on to voice Adam Jensen in Deus Ex Human Revolution/Mankind Divided.
I'm able to enjoy a review of a terrible movie more when I know that those involved have gone on to better work.
I just remember him as the sniper from Saving Private Ryan
Wasn't he also in the Green Mile?
Travolta looks like the offspring of the original Predator - He even has the laugh down!
I had the displeasure of watching this in theaters, and have never walked out of a movie so I actually forced myself to sit through it. Now that's will-power, because I felt like gouging out my eyes after a little while. Many people did walk out of the movie though, and I kind of was like jealous of them everytime someone got up and walked out...
I just assumed Chris was doing a terrible impression of the evil laughs at first but nope, he was spot-on

The worst thing is this movie made $21 Million
I'd agree with you but considering how "the church" operates, it was probably just some way to launder money.
Christopher Rodriguez Actually have you seen the way it was advertised? "Based on one of the best Sci-Fi books of all time." That with the celebrity cast is bound to make SOME money. It still didn't meet the budget of the actual film, so it was still a bomb.
LikeABus Well, it allegedly cost $75 million to make and grossed $30 million...
George Salisbury How the heck did that cost NEARLY that much?!
George Salisbury Although technically, a subsequent lawsuit discovered that the film only cost around $45 million to make and that the production company essentially stole the remainder. They were eventually found guilty, had to pay a settlement and finally filed for bankruptcy.

That Fort Knox gold was long gone. Johnny was barely clothed, starving after being in the caged area once used to keep bears, and he had no hunting nor survival gear after it was all taken away.
