Portent of doom

Jabootu's Bad Movie Events If you're much acquainted with the culture of Jabootudom, you've no doubt heard the phrase "B-Fest" bantered about more than once.   This section, my friend, holds your opportunity to take a peek into the strange yet wonderful world that is... "B-FEST".
Oh! The Humanity! Yes, it's not easy to survive the wasteland that is B-Fest.

...and Then it was TOO LATE!

Site/Author Preview 9 From Outer Space
Stomp Tokyo Whenever a flying saucer appears, everybody throws paper plates in the air.
Tre Chipman (The Wayfarer) Whenever a flying saucer is on screen, B-Fest participants throw hundreds of paper plates into the air.
Rob Trevino (writing for IGN Sci-Fi) Whenever a cheap saucer flies across the screen, the room suddenly erupts in flying paper plates; whenever a piece of reed furniture shows up on screen (happens more than you might think) half the room shouts "Wicker!" and the other half screams out "Rattan!" Someone suggested "Cane Furniture" and is quickly ripped to shreds by angry patrons. Tough crowd.
Joe Bannerman (Opposable Thumb Films) ...who am I to stand in the way of tradition?
Dr. Freex (Bad Movie Report) The rituals associated with this rite of passage are well-detailed elsewhere; suffice to say the air was thick with paper plates during the wobbly saucer scenes, and I feared that I might die in my seat from multiple paper cuts.
Chris Magyar (usually writes the Diary of a Tuber) While most of the scars from B-Fest are psychological, I’m sure a few attendees staggered home with scratches from flying Dixie plates.

[Note: Hurry and read this one while it lasts....]

Apostic (B-Notes) And someone had brought some Chinette plates; man, those things sting.
