Re: Worst Movie Ever
For somebody who doesn't know or understand the music scene in the late 70s/early 80s, This Is Spinal Tap would be very slow, dull, and confusing. There are so many inside jokes.
As far as who it's lampooning, the Stonehenge/midget thing could be construed as poking fun at Jethro Tull or Aerosmith, but primarily Black Sabbath; there were numerous Led Zeppelin references (I am a golden god, the Red Snapper, bowing the guitar, etc); the Smell the Glove album cover was inspired by Whitesnake; Queen, Motley Crue, and Def Leppard are among the others blasted. Pure genius, but without context, pure drivel.
And the only things worse than Napoleon Dynamite are Titanic, The Whole Ten Yards, and Saving Silverman. Finally, while The Whole Nine Yards was fantastic, TWTY was horrible (with apologies to Kevin Pollack).
