This movie was great... and probably several years too early. I feel like it was a combination of the studio not knowing what type of movie it was which led to them marketing it as a traditional comic book movie instead of what it actually was and then the audiences not buying into those trailers and other marketing methods... and all that led to a low box-office gross. I think it's a cult classic but one that's been forgotten by most except by the few that saw it.

Comic book movies werent big enough for a comedy like this to make waves. The homage/parody aspects rely heavily on knowledge of the genre, which was known to the mainstream as something only interesting to nerds and children. Literally only the biggest few comic names ever made it mainstream, like batman/superman/spiderman, even well into the early 2000s, to where non comic fans would go watch them.

Captain Amazing’s publicist: “I’m a publicist, not a magician.” Played by Ricky Jay, a famous magician. That always cracked me up. “All Stars” by Smashmouth was first used for this movie and the original music video featured scenes from the film as well as “cameos” from the characters. Since the movie bombed the video was re-edited to remove all Mystery Men scenes.

Another hero film you may like is Frank Miller's 2008 "The Spirit" which is a different kind of hero film with similar visuals to the "Sin City" films. Critics seemed unfamiliar with the source material, they didn't get the tongue-in-cheek nature of Will Eisner's characters. Samuel L. Jackson plays the villain, The Octopus. Scarlett Johansson is his cohort. And of course there's the 1984 "The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension" starring Peter Weller ("Robocop") with Ellen Barkin, Jeff Goldblum, John Lithgow and Christopher Lloyd. I watch it once a year.

Congratulations on 20k subscribers - fully deserved! And welcome back, you two! It's great to see you again (even if it IS in some sort of surreal mirror dimension!) 😁 I hope you keep on healing, Matthew, and Emily, you make a great Cinema Sherpa! As for the movie itself, I agree that if it was released now, it'd probably stand a much better chance of finding its audience. Perhaps if it had been released in, say '96, it might've been something of a hit, or even in the mid 2000s, but in 1999 the superhero genre was in the doldrums thanks to "Batman & Robin" so there wasn't really an audience to sustain a parody. That year also had a lot of big movies in it too, so the competition was intense... but at least it gets love now! That's probably precious little consolation to the people who lost their jobs after greenlighting the project, though!

I feel like this movie was still living in the shadow of the bomb of Batman & Robin (1997). It really destroyed superhero movies for a long time.

Fun fact: Mystery Men is based on a comic book called The Flaming Carrot. In the comics The Flaming Carrot is a member of the team with the Mystery Men in it.

I'm with Emily on this one. This movie has always been a hoot. Huge William H. Macy and Geoffrey Rush fan. Jaenene Garafalo was terrific. I'm not a Ben Stiller fan, but his limitations work in this one. Paul Reubens and Hank Azaria did good work. Claire Forlani's eyes make me a better man. And the writing is spot on!

Try "The Specials". Another comedy about low rent superheroes. It stars Thomas Hayden Church. Written by the guy who wrote "Free Enterprise" (which I highly recommend). Pretty low budget. Nothing close to $68 million.

Love this film. It was genius and probably ahead of its time. Glad to see it get some love. And great to hear you're doing a bit better. Oh, and Michael Bay used to direct commercials, as well, with his most famous one probably being the Got Milk? Aaron Burr commercial. And this film's director also directed commercials for that campaign, as you mention. They may have known each in some other way but I'm guessing they definitely knew each other because of that and probably threw Bay in the film for shit's and giggles.

Just discovering and enjoying your reactions over the last few days. As so many others have mentioned, like Galaxy Quest, this too is so underrated and flew completely under the radar when it was first released. Admitedly, had it not been for Janeane Garofalo, I may have completey skipped over it. But now, I'm quite glad that I gave it a chance, and would happily go back and watch it any time. Nice job on the cosplay.
