Hey, everyone! Welcome to my 63rd edition of my Bad Movie Tweet-A-Thon series! I’m really sorry for the lateness of this edition. I was hoping to have it online at the end of August as planned but after the Melbourne International Film Festival was over, I went on an impromptu holiday and then went straight back to work once I got back. So I didn’t have time to do it until now. As you already know last month here on SuperMarcey.com, I posted up poll with three bad 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 63rd instalment of Bad Movie Tweet-A-Thon, you guys wanted me to watch and live-tweet… BEVERLY HILLS COP III! Did this film really ruin the once promising BEVERLY HILLS COP franchise? Whose idea was it to set it at amusement park? Read on and find out! Enjoy!

I know I’ve said this many, many, MANY times before but I’m going to say it again, is it too late for me to *not* watch this film? #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Just like the train that we’re seeing at the beginning of this film, this film for a lot of people is a bit of a train wreck. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Oh, Eddie Murphy. It’s clear with the look of your face that you so don’t want to be here. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Ahhh… Why are these mechanics doing a literal musical number right now? #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Man, that one mechanic’s hairdo is just simply bizarre. The ‘90s were a very weird time. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
I like how that one guy gets shot by a pistol and the blast from it sends him literally flying across the room. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Is it just me or does one of the bad guy’s henchman look like David Cronenberg? #BeverlyHillsCopIII
“Axel, are you on a coffee break? Go get that son of a bitch” Okay, say what you about this film, but those were some pretty cool final words for someone to say before they die. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
You want to know how you can tell that you’re watching a John Landis film? That’s lots and lots of car crashes in it. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Oh, hi Stephen McHattie! #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Geez, Jon Tenny has very big eyebrows. They look like caterpillars. I shouldn’t judge ‘cause I have eyebrows almost like that too lol. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Yep, it’s official. No matter how many times I hear it, the BEVERLY HILLS COP theme will always be awesome. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Judge Reinhold! The unsung hero of this series. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
“Where’s Taggert? “He’s retitled” Shhh… That’s code for, “he didn’t want to come back for this sequel”. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Oh, Wonder World. You’re such a knock off of Disney Land. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
I like how Axel is outraged by having to pay $35 to get inside Wonder World when it seems pretty reasonable to me since it covers everything. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Geez, security at Wonder World is a bit lacklustre if anyone can just walk into the security area like Axel did without any problems. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Oh, please. This Alien Attack ride is just the Earthquake ride at Universal Studios with robots added to it. In fact that’s what it actually is too. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
You want to know another you can tell you’re watching John Landis film? Lots of celebrity cameos ‘cause George Lucas just showed up. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Ahhh… Did that you train just let out a scream when it got trampled on?! #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Oh, geez. This scene with the ferris wheel spinning out of control is one of my worst nightmares come to life
#BeverlyHillsCopIII
Say what you will about this film again, but the stunt work in this scene is pretty impressive. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
I swear that ferris wheel carriage is made out of cardboard when it hit the ground. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
John Saxon: absolute legend. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Yeah… Billy & Flint are totally gas lighting Axel right now. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Oh, man. Every time that BHC themes plays, I gotta dance. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
I like how Axel is totally geeking out when he is meeting Uncle Dave. It’s pretty charming. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Oh, hi Serge! We haven’t seen you since the first film. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
I don’t know how Serge went from running an art gallery to selling guns but whatever. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Geez… I don’t know if this Annihilatior 2000 gun is amazing or a NRA member’s wet dream of a gun. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
“Sylvester Stallone ordered 20 of these” That’s a stone cold lie, Serge! Everyone knows that Stallone is anti-gun guy and is for gun control! He would never buy them. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
So… All the underprivileged kids that are featured at this event are all boys. Not a single girl in sight. I’ll let you draw your conclusions there. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Ahhh… Why is Billy hiding behind a bush? #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Oh, hi Joe Dante! Nice to see that you have a cameo in this film as well. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
This scene at the beach would be 10 times better if David Hasselhoff and Pamela Anderson showed up as their characters from BAYWATCH in a cameo. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
“You have a $50 bill?” “I have a wife and kids, I haven’t seen a $50 bill in years” Okay, you have to admit, that’s a pretty funny line. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Omg! It’s the Grandma from DON’T BE A MENACE TO SOUTH CENTRAL…! #BeverlyHillsCopIII
You know Axel, maybe it would have been a good idea if you brought a spy camera to take pictures of all these criminal activities are going on so everyone will believe you when you say that they are happening. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Oh, geez. These henchman must be pretty daring if they’re willing shoot Axel While there are tonnes of witnesses around at Wonder World. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Sorry for the lack of tweets, nothing really interesting is happening at the moment. Why am I not surprised? #BeverlyHillsCopIII
OMG they shot Uncle Dave! You bastards! #BeverlyHillsCopIII
I like how there are many different variations of the BHC theme throughout the film. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
You know this whole crime would have been solved very quickly if Axel had a banana to shove into a exhaust pipe. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Geez, there’s a lot of sparks in this shoot out between Axel and the bad guys. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
I find it amazing that Axel can carry that Annihilator 2000 gun pretty easily. You would think from the looks of it, it would be a lot heavier. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Well… After all that set up, the Annihilator 2000 gun was barely even used. Figures. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Oh, hi John Singleton! #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Hmmm… I wonder what this sequel would have been like if Sylvester Stallone ended up playing Axel Foley instead Eddie Murphy at the beginning of this series. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Ahhh… When did Axel find the time to create that fake money and put his face on it? #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Yeah, the henchman must’ve went to the same gun training school as the Stromtroopers from STAR WARS ‘cause they can barely hit anything. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
I wonder if this Dinosaur section of the ride was included in the climax of the film due to JURASSIC PARK coming out the year before? #BeverlyHillsCopIII
So… Stephen McHattie’s FBI agent was working for the bad guys all along? Why am I not surprised? #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Yeah! Uncle Dave is alive! #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Man, I hope I save someone who runs an amusement park’s life someday so I can get a cartoon character created after me. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Wait, a minute! Hold the phone! This film was written by the guy who wrote DIE HARD and COMMANDO and directed STREET FIGHTER: THE MOVIE? My God… #BeverlyHillsCopIII
Well, that’s the end of the film. While I don’t think this sequel is as bad everyone says it is, I can still definitely see why it’s considered the weakest one in the serious and why we still haven’t seen a BEVERLY HILLS COP IV yet. #BeverlyHillsCopIII
I hope everyone enjoyed reading this 63rd edition of my Bad Movie Tweet-A-Thon! Keep a look out later in September for my 64th edition, which I could be doing on one of the following three bad films: THE CAT IN THE HAT, CROSSROADS or GAMER. Which one will it be? Vote on the poll which will be posted on SuperMarcey.com soon!
