Movies! The movie thread

TXSTYLE · 09-18-2024, 08:01 PM

OK.... So I still remember the Original when I was 8yrs old. The original TV mini series traumatized me and I refused to sleep anywhere near a window for at least many months. Now comes the Movie remake that I've been reading about for 2yrs.
I must say, it looks impressive and has the potential to be just as unsettling for a new generation.

This.....could be pretty good. Trailer has potential and a killer cast.

Brothers

TXSTYLE · 09-19-2024, 09:44 PM

I've watched the first one at least 10 times! It's still that good. This sequel looks super entertaining.
Can not wait...

It had to happen I guess but the trouble with these sort of remakes is they are so over the top to even the younger generation have a laugh at what director comes up with.
There is no substitute for the original with the late David Soul.

I recently acquired the original in a 1080p remaster! Plan to watch it before this.
What were your thoughts on the original?

It was good from what I remember of it and as it's been quite a while since I last saw it will go on the watch again list

Having a good laugh with this one.

Police Academy 4.

I love those old Police Academy movies. Haven’t seen one in a while, though. Nice reminder.

As mentioned before in this thread...thoughts?

The Substance with Demi Moore was really good.

Huge Michael B Jordan fan and Director Ryan Coogler, so I'm in!

Fake trailer fellas, it's just a bunch of scenes from the old movies

I was thinking that when I watched it.

Murf the Surf · 09-30-2024, 02:14 AM

I have to admit I was disappointed by this. I like Pitt & Cloney together, they have good chemistry but this dragged on and it seemed like they were walking through it. I'm glad I didn't pay for it.

They're not giving one little thing away.

Murf the Surf · 10-02-2024, 07:43 AM

Watched Killer Heat last night. I found it very slow moving and predictable. Wasn't something I'd recommend. YMMV.

I watched it as well. Wish I could get that wasted time back.

TboneS54 · 10-02-2024, 03:05 PM

Transformers One was pretty awesome! I'm not a big fan of fantasy/comic book stuff, but it was really well done and cool to see the origins of OptimusPrime/Megatron.

Deadpool v Wolverine - OK, some good parts, decent jokes, some were shit. Kind of wish Logan was the end for Hugh Jackman, it seemed right, but oh well.

A quiet place forgot the name - Pretty good, I wanted to see how it all started. Didn't care for too much of the human aspect after a while, esp the end. Wanted to see more of the aliens fucking shit up.

M5Rick · 10-03-2024, 06:45 AM

Great film I'll be watching tonight again, here's some good scenes with the dumb cops going after the wrong people.
