A number of celebrities have said the presidential debate was the “worst thing" they have seen, including their own movies and projects.

Among them, Luke Skywalker actor Mark Hamill poked fun at the Star Wars Holiday Special.


A number of writers have now compared their unsuccessful movies to the presidential debate, a trend started by Fantastic Four writer, Jeremy Slater.

He tweeted after the debate:

“That was the worst thing I've ever seen, and I wrote FANTASTIC FOUR."

He wrote the fourth attempt at a Fantastic Four movie, which was universally panned by critics, achieving a score of just 9% on Rotten Tomatoes.

His tweet was quickly followed by Randi Mayem Singer, who wrote the 2010 movie Tooth Fairy, starring Dwayne “The Rock" Johnson and Julie Andrews, which was given a Rotten Tomatoes score of 17%.

She tweeted:

“That was the worst thing I've ever seen, and I wrote Tooth Fairy."

Screenwriter Justin Marks added:

“That was the worst thing I've ever seen, and I wrote a video game adaptation (of Tooth Fairy)."

A number of other writers have jumped on the bandwagon, including Sharknado writer Thunder Levin, and Cat In The Hat writer Alec Berg.


Incumbent US President Donald Trump and Democratic challenger Joe Biden went head-to-head in the first presidential debate of 2020.

Held in Cleveland, Ohio, they discussed the pandemic, job losses and the Supreme Court.

Not to be outdone, writer Laurie Brookins capped it off, writing:

“That was the worst thing I've ever seen, and I worked on the Trump magazine."


Giphy

Here's hoping debate number two is less of a number two.

Jasmine Crockett Calls Out Trump's Hypocrisy By Pointing Out How Melania Got Her Visa

Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett pointed out President Donald Trump's hypocrisy on immigration considering how First Lady Melania Trump's pathway to citizenship was possible because she received an "Einstein visa," which is usually reserved for an individual with "some sort of significant achievement."

Speaking during a House Judiciary Committee hearing titled “Restoring Integrity and Security to the Visa Process,” Crockett noted that “the idea that Trump and my Republican colleagues want to restore integrity and security in the visa process is actually a joke," and harshly criticized the Trump administration's immigration crackdown and visa restrictions.

Fox Host Comes To Reporter's Defense After Pete Hegseth Berates Her At Pentagon Briefing

Fox News' chief political analyst Brit Hume came to the defense of Fox national security reporter Jennifer Griffin after their former colleague, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, criticized Griffin as the reporter "who misrepresents the most intentionally what the president says” in a Pentagon news conference.

Hegseth, a former Fox News anchor, had criticized media outlets—including his former network—for what he described as unpatriotic reporting. Hegseth took particular aim at early intelligence assessments suggesting that President Donald Trump's bombing of Iran may not have significantly crippled Iran’s nuclear capabilities.

Fox Host Slams Dem For Dropping An F-Bomb After Praising Trump For The Same Thing Just Minutes Earlier

Fox News host Emily Compagno was criticized after she praised Donald Trump's use of the "f-bomb" earlier this week before condemning Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett's use of the same word—on the same episode of her show, no less.

Trump made headlines this week after admonishing Israel and Iran for violating a ceasefire agreement he'd announced on Truth Social. Although he claimed the ceasefire had been "agreed upon," Iran fired at least six missile barrages at Israel after it was supposed to take effect.
