Was this going to win Best Picture? Hell no. But 'Adventures of Ford Fairlane' is the movie you watch when you're about to go to sleep because you have a big meeting in the morning and then you see the opening credits on HBO at 11:30pm and you just have to watch it. Movies like this, as self-serving and gross as they are, actually are more important today more than they were when they came out in the 80s and 90s. They are a reminder of a time when we could laugh at something that was gross and disgusting without having to worry about protests from leftist screaming about micro aggressions. No one names their penis 'Stanley' anymore. No one is banned from MTV. No one says nursery rhymes with the word pu$$y in them. No one knew it at the time, but AFF is an important snapshot of a better time in pop culture.
