A particular guilty pleasure of mine are those old sci-fi & horror movies from the 30's to the 60's that are so gobsmackingly cringingly awful that they're fabulous. Here's my current crop... & indeed they're simply superb in their Coefficients of Craptitude.

PS - very nice work @TbGbe , very nice. -
@Steffie Surely you meant to include Plan 9 from Outer Space
-
@TbGbe No i didn't, i've seen that already [ditto Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, The Blob, The Thing et al] -- all wonderful specimens of the genre of course, but irrelevant to my post. The list above is my current list of stuff i found within the past couple of days, & which i am working my way thru watching.
After my post i finished the first one. OMZ, so bad, so very very bad.

I recently watched Infinity Train - It's a cartoon† about a hitchhikers-guide-esque bipolar robot, a talking corgi, and the main character is a girl programmer trying to find her way. It thoroughly dashed my expectations.
† Not a "kids cartoon", as evidenced by the fact the network cancelled it for contain themes that were "too mature"

Yet another Falcon 9 Launch • Landing on Drone Ship (64th successful landing). • Deployment of GPS III Satellite

Full Film Documentary

I decided to chillout with a history-channel documentary for a while.

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse - This is the first comic book film I've watched that has actually felt like a comic book while watching it. Really good animation.

By the Sea & The Picnic 1922
The Two Ronnies are usually worth watching. I don't think I have seen the entire film before.
This one is 1:20 mins in total. I think I have seen only clips before.
The beach scenes are from Shell Bay, which was my favourite local beach.

It's a real hoot. Bureaucracy & gov't officialdom intensively disliking inconvenient data & history that paints a reality different to what they'd prefer, & so they energetically debunk, distract & ridicule.
Such silly fiction! Who in their right mind could ever believe that any such thing could happen in reality?

Pygmalion
This movie from 1938 is exceptional.
It received an Academy Award for the writing by George Bernard Shaw. One has to make some allowances for the acting.
George Bernard Shaw, Cecil Lewis, Ian Dalrymple, and W.P. Lipscomb[4] won the 1938 Academy Award for Writing (Adapted Screenplay). The film also received nominations for Best Picture, Best Actor (Howard) and Best Actress (Hiller). Shaw's reaction to his award was: "It's an insult for them to offer me any honour, as if they had never heard of me before – and it's very likely they never have. They might as well send some honour to George for being King of England [sic]." However, his friend Mary Pickford later reported seeing the award on display in his home. (Wikipedia entry)

Starship SN8 High Altitude Flight Test
Currently paused. Tentative launch time is 22:40 UTC.
They are having some trouble getting this one to go. They cannot afford for it to blow up on launch or crash land. It promises to be awesome if it performs its "belly-flop" manoeuvre using the fins.
