Hey, everyone! Welcome to the 54th edition of my Bad Movie Tweet-A-Thon series. I’m so very sorry for the lateness on this edition. I was hoping to have this one online late November as I was originally planned but the pass weeks have pretty busy in both my birthday and work that I didn’t get a chance to do it until now. As you already know last month here on SuperMarcey.com, I posted up poll with three bad horror movies and I said that whichever one out of those three films had the highest votes, I would watch and live-tweet for this column. Well, the votes are in and you all have spoken. For this 54th instalment of Bad Movie Tweet-A-Thon, you guys wanted me to watch and live-tweet… NOTHING BUT TROUBLE! Did we really honestly need a sequel to the classic ’90s action film SPEED?! Who thought that setting it on a boat was a good idea?! Read on and find out! Enjoy!

I know I’ve said this before but I’ll say it again. Is it too late for me to *not* watch this film? #Speed2
Yep, when I think of making a SPEED film, my first thought would totally be setting it on a luxury liner. #Speed2
One thing that I don’t like about this film that despite not getting Keanu Reeves back for it, is the reason that his character Jack and Annie broke up ‘cause he was a jerk. #Speed2
It’s pretty clear that Annie’s new boyfriend Alex was meant to be Jack before they rewrote ‘cause he’s basically the exact same character. #Speed2
Also you know another flaw that this sequel makes? Is that they make Annie incredibly annoying and when she actually a strong and really likeable in the first film. #Speed2
I don’t know how Annie didn’t know that Alex was a cop in the 7 months that they dated but okay. #Speed2
Poor Jan de Bont. Between this film and THE HAUNTING, they pretty much ruined his career as a director. #Speed2
Once again when I think about fast moving vehicles to set a SPEED sequel, it should definitely be in a very slow moving boat. #Speed2
Willem Dafoe is Norman Osbourne in SPEED 2. #Speed2
OMG the shaky camera work in this scene is nauseating 
#Speed2
Annie is really drunk in this scene. Honestly, I don’t blame her. If I were her, I’d get drunk just to get through this film as well. #Speed2
Ahhh… Why is Willem Dafoe carrying around leaches in jars? #Speed2
OMG I didn’t Kimmy Robertson from TWIN PEAKS was this sequel?! There’s something good about this film after all! #Speed2
I’m really impressed that this luxury liner was able to afford a band who was pretty big as UB40 was at the time. #Speed2
Man, Willem Dafoe’s hair in this film so epic. #Speed2
Yes! Temuera Morrison is in this film. He’s always the best part no matter what film he is in. #Speed2
Annie & Alex are watching Kubrick’s LOLITA in their cabin. It always make me giggle when a bad film has its characters watch an actual good film in it lol. #Speed2
You know I expected a lot of things in SPEED 2 but I didn’t expect there would be a scene where Willem Dafoe would covering himself with leeches in it. #Speed2
Geez. I don’t remember Annie being neurotic here as she was I the first film. #Speed2
As far as I’m concerned when it comes to playing bad guys, over-the-top villainous Dafoe is better subtle villainous Dafoe. #Speed2
Oh, geez, Annie! Stop thinking about yourself how your vacation is ruined and start thinking about the life threatening situation you’re in! #Speed2
I’m surprised that they’re is a Scottish crew member on the ship and the filmmaker didn’t force him to start shouting, “I can’t do it, Captain! I don’t have the power!” #Speed2
Yep. Between this film and THE NET, Sandra Bullock should stay away from films that have evil computer hackers in them. #Speed2
Wow… This film is so fast paced. I’m really intense right now *Yawn*. #Speed2
This film came out the same year as TITANIC in 1997. Who would have thought that this would end up being a real disaster than that one. #Speed2
“I’m LAPD” “What’s that?!” Seriously?! You don’t know what the LAPD is?! Even my young niece and nephew know what they means. #Speed2
Yeah, Willem Dafoe is having way too much fun in this film. #Speed2
OMG can someone keep the camera still please! This is annoying! #Speed2
Geez, these parents are pretty awful for not going to look for their daughter after the ship was called to be evacuated. #Speed2
“That was odd” Funny that was the same reaction I had after watching this film. #Speed2
It’s amazing that despite being a cop, Alex knows exactly everything about how a boat works. #Speed2
Ahhh… I know that everyone is taking off their clothes so they can block the vents but… Yeah… This is just weird. #Speed2
I’m not going to lie. If Annie said ‘Groovy’ when she grabbed that chainsaw, I would have given this film 5 stars. #Speed2
It’s weird. Jason Patric is arguably a better actor than Keanu Reeves, but yet Reeves is far more charismatic and relatable. #Speed2
I like how that is just taking photographs for no apparent reason while Annie is cutting down that door. #Speed2
Hmmm… I don’t know about anyone else, but it doesn’t sit well with me that Alex has more to do in this film than Annie does. She’s suppose to be the lead, right? #Speed2
Man, some of the dialogue in this film is hilariously bad lol. #Speed2
Geez, it can’t be that hard to take down Willem Dafoe. He’s the only person who’s taken ove this ship. #Speed2
Yep! No one can do a creepy laugh as well as Willem Dafoe. #Speed2
I wonder which ‘90s film that Temuera Morrison was embarrassed to be in? BARB WIRE or this. #Speed2
It’s has to say something when I care more about the bottles of win that’s being destroyed in the background than I do the characters. #Speed2
What in earth? It was still just literally night time 5 minutes ago and now it’s already daytime! #Speed2
Wow… The boat is very slowly getting closer than a port miles and miles away. This is intense, y’all. #Speed2
Wait… Did the ship just let out a dinosaur roar?! #Speed2
Oh, man. That CGI rope looks so bad. #Speed2
Yeah… Despite being the lead, Annie is pretty much useless in this film. #Speed2
Man, the suspense is killing me. It’s going to take a least 5 more days before the ship hits that port. #Speed2
Oh, man. Sandra Bullock just let our the most unenthusiastic reading of ‘Oww’ that I’ve ever heard. #Speed2
Why is that hot still taking photos?! It doesn’t make any sense! #Speed2
Man, this is one of the most thrilling action sequences I’ve ever seen… *Yawn* #Speed2
Oh, man. That boat is about 3 days out from hitting that port now. #Speed2
I just realised that this year marks the 20th anniversary of SPEED 2: CRUISE CONTROL. So… Yeah? #Speed2
I don’t know why, but this big action set piece in SPEED 2 reminds me of this scene from AUSTIN POWERS. #Speed2
I like how those underwater divers managed to get out of the way of the ship. #Speed2
Oh, the humanity! Those boats had one day left until their retirements! #Speed2
Oh, hai doggie! #Speed2
Okay I will admit, this scene with ship crashing into the port is actually kind of cool. #Speed2
Wait… That giant bottle of wine actually had wine in it?! #Speed2
I like how they shoot some parts of this scene in slow motion even thought the boat is going as slow as hell anyway lol. #Speed2
Man… This scene definitely cost a lot of money. #Speed2
Hey, Glenn Plummer! Nice to see back to reprise his role from the first film is a quick cameo. #Speed2
“Annie! Stay with me! You’re my hostage!” Okay, I gotta admit. That line was funny. #Speed2
Okay… How did Annie and Grieger get in that seaplane?! #Speed2
See Willem Dafoe! This is why you should keep your eyes focused while flying a plane. #Speed2
Annie, are you okay?! Are you okay?! Are you okay, Annie?! #Speed2
Wait, hold the phone! Did I just see a cow go flying through the air when that oil tanker exploded?! #Speed2
Geez, I wonder if Annie & Alex realise that they just caused a eco-disaster with that oil tanker blowing up. #Speed2
Well.. That’s the most awkward marriage proposal ever. #Speed2
Yep. No matter where see goes on either on the road or on the sea, Annie brings back everywhere she goes. #Speed2
Also what the hell happened to UB40? I hope they survived the boat crash in the end. #Speed2
So that’s the end of the film. Instead of SPEED 2: CRUISE CONTROL, this sequel should have been accurately titled SPEED 2: AUTO PILOT ‘cause that’s what it felt like watching everyone in this film. #Speed2
