  • this is a fucking great movie people, when have you seen a movie that you can rip on for longer than it takes to watch the movie, the phrase "so bad it's good" was made for this.

  • Go watch Berry Pepper in The Kennedys Mini-series, he's 100000000000000000000000000000­0000000000x better

  • This is what Scientologists believe

  • Hrrr, Battlefield Earth is so terrible. Doesn't even compare to awesome movies like Transformers and Iron Man. There's no plot holes in those movies.

  • you didnt even change anything and it is still a great movie leverage is good

  • it could also be made better if not every shot WAS AT AN ANGLE!

  • i think you guys are being a little too hursh, i think this movie was kinda good, it wasn't great, but i didn't sucked either, i've seen worse.

  • @wsiklogfh stooooooopid hyuuuumahns!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAAA!!!!­!

  • FAIL. There is NO way to make this hunk of fuck better, other than killing it with fire.

  • Funny, but you can't improve on perfection. Battlefield Earth is already the greatest comedy of all time XD

  • *writes on notepad*

    "...H-e-e-e-e-e-h..."

    Here's hoping someday our children will make better use of this knowledge than we ever will...

  • Hey, this isn't an improvement...the credits aren't at a dutch angle. What a rip-off xD

  • Why did people think this movie was bad? It was funny! "You may not be wallowing in luxury on cyclone, but at least you got your gold" Lololo This movie is awesome.

  • Barry looks so cute and fuckable in this, I'd go back to prison in a heartbeat if I could have him as my celly.

  • I fuckin hate Barry Pepper so much. That fucking douche bag I want to punch him in his stupid fucking face. Stupid fucking flared nontrils always making the same exact expression.. stupid Barry Pepper fag

  • @Imontheinternet111 kiss my ass ....... dude

  • i only liked this movie for one reason...

    BARRY PEPPER. CUZ HES EPIC IN SAVING PRIVATE RYAN

  • Battlefield Earth is the only movie I'm aware of where the book was fucking worse.

  • @monkeytube138 so basically what you're saying is that since the book was written 20 years before the movie and was twice as long, the movie was better than the book even though the movie covered only half of the book? good assumption, i hated both anyway and scientology sucks and so does travolta

  • @mylovelychildren Not at all, though I appreciate your logic. The movie left out enough (including the 5 other alien races) to cease making any sense, obscuring just how bad L. Ron's writing was. It's not just the length of the badness, the book increases the depth of the badness. But otherwise, yeah, both are horrid abortions of their respective mediums.

  • NYEEEEE!

    A line that should be engraved in stone for all eternity.

  • This movie is so bad that even the credits at 0.08 look cheap. You feel like you're watching a bad TV movie.

  • i liked it

  • THE OSCAR FOR THIS CUT....XD

  • The sad thing is that the book was good source matierial for an entire franchise like LOTR with aliens, I have book but havent read it yet. I havent even seen the whole movie either to see EXACTLY how bad it is..

    This movie is an example of why people should hire the right people to do the job,

    I bet if Peter jackson had written ansd directed it, it could have been awesome, hopefully somebody will reconsider doing a new adaptation, even if its a TV series.

  • EEEEEEEhhh!!!!!

  • It took two guys to write a single line of dialogue? Brilliant.

  • Well, I means its better. But the real challenge would be to make it worse. Any cuts made to the film make it better.

  • Kicked Avatar in teh nutz

  • lol wut?

  • lol. i always found this movie awesome :P

    but i still dont know why.

  • oh battlefield earth, the only time when a movie's credits doubled as a fucking hitlist...

  • @Darkearth123 What about Catwoman?

  • @Darkearth123 despite this film.... John Travolta is a talented actor.

  • @Mordancy11 no he's shit

  • @fleamarket3000 agree to disagree

  • @Darkearth123 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    GREATEST COMMENT EVER!

  • Well, what can you expect from something of which was created by L Ron Hubbard?

  • "Piece of Cake"

  • the movie is not so good but i like it

  • ya i put this movie in the same catagory with judge dredd, demolition man, and cop land, salvesters three best movies, now i can add travolta to that list haha

  • barry and forrest? Oh my COD

  • @wilddey cpl. Dunn huh ...

  • There is an old saying that goes something like this: "The science fiction films are not suitable for idiots"

  • LOL! This is brilliant and illustrates how Battlefield Earth should have been when it came out in the cinema!

  • I like how in the movie they all have an extra pinky, and for the life of me when I was a kid, I always wanted to know why the fuck they didn't use it...now I know.

  • I know a lot of people like to put this with Batman & Robin as far as horrible movies go, but not me. I think this was MUCH worse than Batman & Robin.

  • at least batman and robin is mildly entertaning and isn't pain ful to watch. Easily the worts movie i have ever seen.

  • Battlefield Earth is the worst movie you've ever seen?

    The other thing with Batman & Robin is that there were much better Batman films both before and since. Whereas Battlefield Earth is (as far as I know) the only adaptation of an L. Ron Hubbard book there is.

    The difference between Hubbard and Stephanie Meyer is that Meyer's fans are actually dumb enough to accept the Twilight movies.

  • And we all know what Hubbards fans are dumb enough to accept...

  • XD funny vid.

  • Funny, funny.

  • ...but there is one thing you rat brains weren't smart enough to realize.

    Heheheheheh!

    END OF MOVIE

  • I would totally agree 100% that this video is a much better version of that piece of GARBABE.

  • This video certainly is a much better version of Battlefield Earth.

  • Star Wars doesn't have a race of aliens that beat the human race in 9 minutes, then 1000 years later lost to cavemen led by 1 smart person by training cavemen to fly harrier's in about a week. This movie is as bad as it gets, and the book is just as lousy.

    Cavemen who takes out the barrier:  "Piece of cake!"

    No...no...piece of shit is more like it.

  • @banglefaar

    Not to mention that the planes still work after a 1000 years.

  • In Scienology's Sea Org, Battlefield Earth is considered to be sacred, if not semi-pornographic.

    However, if members get caught pleasuring themselves while looking at cyclo hot pants, they are sent to the RPF gulag. It is a sin worse than "bad thoughts about Hubbard."

    Thank you for the edited version, as Travolta's cyclo teeth will not cause Sea Org member's thoughts to stray from their mission of Keeping Scientology Working.

  • so the great conquerors of the galaxy, with all their technology, were destroyed by one nuke. nobody else thought of that, no other conquered alien race. also, their transporter had no safety precautions against bringing uranium to their homeplanet. finally, this race evolved completely without the necessity of fission to be the technologically most advanced race in the universe. and thats why the story sucks.

  • Dude, have you read the book? I think NOT. It's actually a great story. It's just too bad the movie portrayed it so poorly and explained little. What you have to understand is that this is a story built on 2 things. (A) Terl and his race are oblivious to the intelligence and strengths of humanity, they are regarded as nothing more than primitive beings, much like how we regard our family pets. (B) Johnny uses their disregard and underestimation to pull off the highly unlikely, starting with

  • ...discovering that uranium is deadly to their atmosphere. The only problem I have with the entire story is that if the psyclos were so advanced then they would have found a way to terraform the Earth during that 1000 years before Johnny decided to venture off and explore in the first place. If that had happened, then there would be no pockets of surviving humans, and no Johnny Tyler, just a wasteland of what once was. Terl's focus on the gold was just a way for him to get back home.

  • That's still stupid, an insanely advanced species doesn't realize when they happen upon a populated planet filled with nuclear power-plants and machines of all types that though they might be dealing with a sub-par species a non-the-less intelligent one? Uranium destroys their atmosphere, what type of atmosphere is this, hydrogen bombs trigger a critical mass chain reactions with hydrogen, but even still once the main reactants gone its done with. Galactic space people give a damn about gold?

  • well, in the story, gold is even more rare in other planets

    and the book portrays not as 'an alien civilization conquering another planet' it portray it more like an alien private corp conquering planets on a regular basis, and this corp is very big and very bureaucratic

  • @satwstylist You think Battlefield Earth the book is a great story? Admittedly, its better than the movie, but it still sucks a fat one. For some reason, aliens are intereted in gold even though the value of gold is more due to a cultural human thing than any inherant value in the metal itself. Johhny leads around a band of national stereotypes.The Psychlos conquer a highly intelligent, submissive and polite race called the "Chinkos" There are so many problems I cant list them all in 500 letters

  • Forgive my foggy memory of the book, but it's been about 15 years since I read it, so I don't have an answer at this time, but all of that is beside the point. The point is how terribly the book was portrayed by the movie, not how much one can nitpick the book itself. Perhaps there is an explanation to your nitpick in the book, but right now I do not remember. As for the gold vein, Terl only cared about it as it was a way out of his hated remote outpost - EARTH.

  • and it was made by L. Ron Hubbard...

    so yeah, nuff said...

  • Terl and the gang cannot breath Earth's air, and humans cannot breath their "breathgas". Johnny noticed that uranium had an explosive reaction to their gas, so again under a very long planned out mission, he managed to teleport a nuke to their homeworld and destroyed it, that is how the little nuke could do that. There were subtle hints of this in the movie, but only people that read the book would have recognized them, which is again why it was a terrible adaptation.

  • correct chengloki, there were no Harriers in the book. The human resistance lead by Johnny Tyler flew the aliens' own aircraft against them. The process of learning how to fly these craft was under the guise of helping Terl accomplish his own agenda, which Terl did not see as a threat at all. The answer to contlocked's question is the fact that the alien's homeworld has a unique atmosphere that is vulnerable to uranium.

  • Which is stupid. How would such a planet survive the aeons it takes to form a plantet with such unstable atmosphere. Pheww.

  • This film was so terrible, it was funny.

  • no, I've seen it. As I said its so bad its good.

    You're just trolling though and I can't be arsed to play with you so tara.

  • bad cinematography, horrible acting, silly nonsencical script, etc...

  • was the book even good or was it just as bad as the movie?

  • worse.

  • Godzilla, the book was amazing!!I did not recognize the movie. There were no Harriors in the book. Read it for yourself. You can read, can't you?? =Stefan=

  • @Godzilla52 So far the book has been amazing to me

  • @TheEIPfan Yep, book was amazing. Film was ok as well, although not exactly having much to do with the book is a might annoying.

  • The reason why it was bad was plain and simple. it was extremely inaccurate to the book. Yes, I realize most books made into movies usually are, but there were parts of the story that were portrayed so badly that it just isn't believable to the audience, let alone conceivable. For instance, this story is only the first HALF of the book, and no, the cavemen did not learn to fly military aircraft overnight in the book, it was a much much longer and complicated process.

  • and how did the obsolete small ass nuclear bomb destroy their entire planet? that puzzled me.

  • they explained that pretty blatantly.

  • their atmosphere must be pure nitrogen to cause what they explained...

  • only showing the first half was not the problem.

  • aha, so you're a scientologist.

    That explains it then.

    I don't get how christians like all those crappy made for tv religious movies of theirs either.

  • as did I - as a comedy

  • lol

  • what a shite movie

  • lol

  • SO FUNNY! Both the movie and this

  • Who? Those crazy Scilons brainwashed by a business fronting as a church?

    The only junk happening to us right now is an economic downturn and global warming. Aliens, especially Psychlos, are nonexistent, despite what Hubbard may have written in his science fiction novels .

  • Global Warming is fiction

  • kev- Oh please don't start spewing out newage garbage.

  • Battlefield Earth is so awful they should release the copyright so people can make movies on how bad it is!

  • I don't see the humor in this video... ??

  • This parody could have been better....you could have edited it for real down to like, the three scenes that were interesting.

  • Three scenes? There were that many?

  • This would have been a good movie if it was a comedy.

  • In my opinion, it WAS both a comedy and a homage to all of these old black-white serials of the 30s and 40s - if you dont take it serious, "Battlefield Earth" is actually quite enjoyable. ^^

  • UHHH WRROOOOONNNGGG

  • Bravisimo! Epic.

  • see... it's all in the editing. much better!

  • Editing... AND picking which book to base it off in the first place.

  • true... true...

  • damn you to hell, you gave away the plot.

  • LMFAO. TRUE, true. This is mega times better than the original

  • lmao, this one was MUCH better then the original version

  • 0:41 was awsome

  • Oh man, thank you for this... I laughed so hard at the "eeee" part.

    It is, however, still too long

  • this was a great movie

  • Great video - You managed to show all the best parts of the movie this clip.

  • it is still too long

    :-P

  • Wow, this makes me want to join scientology right now!

  • You cut out all the 'good' parts.

  • wtf is with him at 0:37

  • Uhhh... didn't Hubbard write the book before the founding of scientology? Seriously, I don't know. It's not a bible at all; it's just a cool old-school sci-fi story. A bit political in places, but nothing over the top.

  • That was a masterpiece. Clearly this edited version should have been the final cut.

  • I don't get it. (the whole shebang, not the vid).

    I'm a Catholic, but I don't think The Passion of the Christ is the greatest film ever - why the love of this peice of shite just because it's based on your religion?

  • personally i think its one of the best films ever made, great piece of work

  • Scientologic diarrhea

  • i got to see it, it looks so bad it might be good.

  • It really isn't

  • I think I'm the only one who love this movie.

  • no your not i love this movie too

  • yeah Man. that was some shit there.

  • bahahahhaa

  • No. We bash it because we hate the movie.

  • actually, critics review TONS of movies, they are well experienced in criticizing, hence the term "critic".

    Also, you can ask ANYONE, and they will say they hate it, if they've heard of it.

  • Or maybe you're secretly a scientologist?

  • There are alot of good actors in this movie. Forrest Whitaker for one, who went on to win an oscar for his role in the last King of Scottland. But this was a waste of their time, talent, and John Revolta's money. Id rather sit through Howard the duck than watch this piece of shit movie, i only watched it the first time because i was at college, and I had nothing to do, I had watched all of my freinds movies except this one.like left over potato salad you eat because theres nothing left.

  • its a crap film, get over it

  • One of the worst movies i have ever seen

  • I tried to see this in the theater, but they pulled it soon after it opened!

    Anyway, I saw,own, and love this film. I suggest everyone to own it and force your friends to laugh, err... enjoy it!

  • This movie is what happens when you worship a crackpot guru who was a conman on the run from the FBI (L. Ron Hubbard).

    Anyone interested in the REAL L. Ron Hubbard should read the book "Bald Faced Liar."

  • Easy way to improve this movie: take a blowtorch to the film.

  • that film looks pretty crap. i was almost afraid to watch this video but i wanted to see what barry pepper looked like!

  • LOL! What a total piece of steaming shit this movie was. Travolta should be ashamed.

  • this is gonna be fuckin stupid

  • Travolting

  • omg dude, call webster. this should be a new word for box office bomb! so awesome!

  • actually i think a million reviewers and their grandma used that quip to describe this film before I did but I could always patent it lol

  • "Bankers are doing to enslave us in debt."

    Oh yeah -- because we are all forced at gunpoint to go into debt. Got it.

    And as for "enslavement" -- have you joined the Church of Scientology's "Sea Org" branch, where you have to sign a "Billion-year contract" and work your ass off for $24 a week? Have you had to work in the Sea Org's Rehabilitation Project Force, where you literally slave for 12 hours a day, eat scraps and sleep in filth? THERE is your "enslavement", courtesy of L. Ron Hubbard.

  • Hubbard also excelled at giving his wife abortions with coathangers.

  • HAIL XENU!

  • dont you mean anu ?

  • it's a scientology reference. xenu was the emperor of aliens, who had them nuked all around the volcanoes of earth. he also set up the soul catchers, and the brainwashing centers, for the theatens.

  • yes I understanf tha but it seem to me he was merely coprying and spicing up another story.

    I do have evidence to support that its really quite odd really.

    do you not know the story I refer to ?

  • no, but i'm interested to hear this.

  • you have seen battlefield earth yeah ? I agree, horrible movie, not entertaining, it is sort of interesting though, take a look at the characteristics of those aliens. now please do some research on the annunaki and the sumerian telling of the creation.the creatures are said to be 9-3 ft in height and have 6 fingers and toes on each hand...

    also theey say the old name of earth is tiliak, hubbard says it was tigiak,

    king anu correspond to the xenu fellow...........

  • also other names sound very similar as well and there are lots of similarities, but that theton stuff and the volcanos and all that isnt in the sumerian stuff but there are tons of similarities.

    the creepy part is I dont know that hubbard was familiar with sitchen's work.

    it is curious though, I believe the planet that is reffered to as planet x believed to be the sumerian's nibiru was called tiamat

    also the annunaki were here ellegedly to mine gold...

    creepy eh ?

  • again I dont know ALL the stuff and some of that could be somewhat jumbled(what I just said) please look in to it for yourself.

  • wow, that's really interisting. i will look into it.

  • lmao lmao

    yeahhh i dont think sooo.

  • I saw the movie...and at the end of the movie i was like: ohh wow I cant believe i was able to watch the entire movie, it was disgusting.

  • Man, Philiph K Dick could of started a much better religion than L Con Hubbard, that's for sure.

  • So could have Eidelmania

  • lurlz....oh, you're funny..

    Gawd Berry's hawt <3

  • Battlefield Fail

  • God that was so random but, I laughed so hard!

  • agreed

  • Yeah the drive to the video store was more exciting than the Movie. Let's just say there was no late fee for that one

  • i mean come on it its a long skripit.

  • If it weren't for the camera angles, it would probably be an enjoyable bad movie. Instead, this movie was simply unwatchable.

  • U can then do courses to help u achieve a highere OT level and u become more and more of a kind of super human. U finally learn the secret of how we got to earth at level 3. It is pritty much the same secret described in that southpark episode.

    In my opinion scientology is nothing more than satan worshipping bullcrap!!!!

  • Naw... If you think more realistically, it's just a front to make a ton of money off of idiots. Those lead
