does any one know whats the psychological explanation behind people liking b-movies/cheesy FMV although it is supposed to be bad and unenjoyable?
Very interested...
Cause I kind of like them too...

I think they're just funny. It's great to play a game that looks god-awful, because we all have a little Mystery Science Theater 3000 inside us.

I like the idea of seeing a movie that someone put so much time and effort into that practically no one saw. I feel like one of a few.

I like idea of seeing efforts of others
but I think I think it became a market niche long time ago to make the film
deliberately stupid and extra gory, you can notice it on most b-movies they try to make it
irritating .

MST3000 makes fun of b-movies right? I hardly know the show
maybe there should be one for videogames , like someone do it on youtube or something

That's pretty much what Yahtzee and The Angry Video Game Nerd are.

As for making movies intentially stupid, that only works for comedies - and even then, it is very likely to fail.

I believe those stupid movies make a ton of money
they are like the cheapest to make, no one will criticize you since you are acting stupid, and a lot of people are willing to pay to see the sarcasm

personally I hate those movies, but its fun to enjoy it with friends and make time pass by
