The way of the gun. Why nobody saw that is a mystery to me

Very original in so many different aspects. Hard to go into without spoiling too much.
I don't think its perfect, but I don't think anybody will say they have seen a very similar flick before.

For me, its the most entertaining 8/10 movie I have ever seen.

Remo Unarmed and dangerous:

Apparently based on a series of books called ‘The Destroyer’ series:

It’s about this cop called Sam Makin who unwillingly and until too late unknowingly is given a faked death, a new face and a new name, Remo Williams.

And he’s re-trained as a sort of secret agent for CURE, a secret agent organization for the USA.

He’s trained by this Korean marshal arts expert called Chiun and is taught how to dodge bullets, walk on water and run over wet cement and stuff.

The film was a box office flop, and the fans of the books hated it because it deviated from them a bit.

I thought it was a great movie, the chemistry between Remo and Chiun was brilliant and it’s quite a funny film I think with well places jokes in it.

(By the way where's the reply button? because this post isn't supposed to be a reply to Chomsky89s post just a reply to the thread in general)

Hi
Click reply in the original post
Pleased to meet you

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78561) 7 years ago

I enjoyed that one
Hell of a cast!
Del Toro, Caan, Lewis, Diggs...even if it stunk id watch it for the actors

reply

[–] [deleted] 7 years ago

Caan was great

reply

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78561) 7 years ago

Caan is a great guy from what ive heard
I know an older woman who was into disco and clubs back in the 70s and early 80s (she was probably really 'hot stuff' back then)
Caan and his boys picked her and her girlfriends up at a Disco in NYC one night...this aint going where one would expect it to go...
He paid for drinks, a huge meal for at least 8 people and even had a limo lined up
Naughty advances or bad behavior...not a bit of that!
She told me he was charming, funny as hell and a real sport
Night of her life she said!
So i asked her why she didnt get his number
She told me he was known to be that way...funny, generous, a good time guy who just socialized and liked meeting people
Caan deserves legend status
Hes a boss

Just thought of

King of the Ants
3 Iron
Los Cronocrimenes
Underworld
House Of Games

reply

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78561) 7 years ago

Im not shocked to say that youve stumped me again goshdarnitall!!
Ive heard of only two of these and meant to watch Los Crono (it was 'Timecrimes' when it was in my watchlist) but now its gone...like tears in the rain...expired like a treacherous auto inspection tag even...
And now im weeping
Nice job man:(

reply

[–] godewey (16472) 7 years ago

All decent. Time Crimes (as you call it-so cute) is really good. Get it back on there.

Didn't mean to make you cry.
Blame it on the Boom Boom.

reply

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78561) 7 years ago

I meant to watch but you know...so many movies, so little time
And why is that 'cute?'
Thats how it was listed on streaming last time i saw it silly!

🎶Didnt mean to make you cry
If im not back again this time tomorrow, carry on, carry on...🎶
*either youre quoting my dudes Queen or excusing your mean bullying behavior...so all good i guess

Im not sure what the 'boom boom' is but im certain i want no part of it!

reply

[–] godewey (16472) 7 years ago

You earthlings always crack me up with all your rules. Still worth a watch.

This is a no bullying zone.

Just so happened to be listening to this at the time.

It could have been much worse. I'm now listening to this.

I think it was the right choice.

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78561) 7 years ago

Its pretty fun here on the big blue marble GD...
Come visit us #EarthGirlsAreEasy

I tend to agree with the 'no bullying' thing...

Link 1 was ok...i admit i didnt love it...good background music in a bar i guess but cool enough i get it

Link 2 was very good...straight up pole dancer music
Those gals are athletes
Reminds me of New Orleans...another place im never going back to...it stank of vomit, stale Beer and sweat and every morning a water truck drove past our hotel terrace spraying the streets down:(
Fun but gross

Continue to make good choices! You matter:)

reply

[–] godewey (16472) 7 years ago

You're hashtags are coming along nicely.

My house has been established as a giant bar so I feel it's appropriate.

I saw those guys this summer. It's a fun show.
I've heard horror stories about New Orleans. I think I'll steer clear.

Not so long ago I would have left you with this.

I'm glad we've grown.
I'm also trying to teach hownos how this is works sometimes.
I also volunteered you to catch him if he falls after he becomes The Dean.
Hope you don't mind.

#ThxBro

No bullying in your home is a fine policy...how else could you save your priceless Hummel collection from damage?

New Orleans...the food was amazing, the music worth hearing, the people were not nice at all (i was wearing my Yankee cap half the time so that might have been my fault) and there were several murders over a 5 day stay:(
NO LIE 3 murders...
Never again

I got his back

[–] godewey (16472) 7 years ago

Those Hummel's are priceless. PRICELESS I tell you.

You neglected to mention the Yankee cap.
If that's the case you pretty much got what you deserved.

Which one of you two is the most buff by now ? 😁

reply

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78561) 7 years ago

LOL!
Dewey is super buff

I tried to beat him up for months after the first time i met him...he was the biggest boy on the schoolyard and i like a good rumble

Dewey by a mile in terms of buffness

The ladies tell me hes sexy and the lads admire his Hummel collection

Hes quite a fella!

reply

[–] db20db (17743) 7 years ago

Ok, trying to visualize Gomez Addams as " super buff. " Give me time, I'll get there eventually. 😁

reply

[–] godewey (16472) 7 years ago

ADOLPHE MENJOU if you please.

reply

[–] db20db (17743) 7 years ago

He was my first choice. Couldn't remember the name so he blurred with Addams, but having some trouble with the Charles Atlas body for the time being. Like I said, just need a little time.

reply

[–] godewey (16472) 7 years ago

I could take a pic if you need.
It's actually very surreal.

Take your time.
It's totally understandable.

[–] godewey (16472) 7 years ago

Not even close.
EAST COAST. What ???

Some day you can ride the horse into the sunset

Barely, but he's passed. :)
He'll be around for awhile.

In my mind it's me but reality always sets in doesn't it.

This makes me think of the movie Joy Ride where the evil trucker Rusty Nail says at the end, "Love a good rain....washes everything clean ! " 😁

Of COURSE this is a bullying zone, Dewey! Look at how many milquetoast masochists *cough* Croft *cough* there are here, begging to have their ears boxed.

reply

[–] godewey (16472) 7 years ago

Ha! I hear ya.

I was trying to be nice to yonker guy.
I didn't want to crush his spirit. He can be , well, a little fragile sometimes.
He's a good kid though.

Macabre (1980)
Blood Rage(1987)

reply

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78561) 7 years ago

Macabre...i gotta catch this one
Im on a life's mission to watch every Italian horror/giallo/police thriller i can get my hands on from the late 60s-80s
The Italians know what theyre doing with these genre films

I found Blood Rage on Amazon Prime maybe a month ago
Fun crazy slasher stuff
Cant get enough of these myself and dang, im running out of new ones

Check out The Prowler if you dig the obscure stalk and slash flicks!
Its really good

reply

[–] missnat (1179) 7 years ago

Didn't like the Prowler but Happy Birthday to me (1981) is another good one.

You gotta watch Macabre it's a bizarre one but fun.

reply

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78561) 7 years ago

I saw Happy...a while ago
I recall liking it a lot!
Thx missnat

[–] [deleted] 7 years ago

The Killing 1956
Odds Against Tomorrow 1959

similar movies in that they portray well planned robberies which go off the rails.

I confess to being a big dummy in regards to most pre 70s stuff

Thanks for rubbing it in lady

Disney's Tarzan. I can't believe how this one is neglected by Disney and their fans. I also like Pocahontas much better than what the general opinion seems to be.

Toy Story is cool, but I like Finding Nemo better.

I expected you to be more like Mr. Potato Head.

reply

Nemo was also wonderful...You remind me of Dory but im thinking youre probably a little cuter

That was just mean Miss meany pants...im way more exciting than some dumb root vegatable

I am kind of absent-minded. And I also speak whale!

I was just kidding, I bet you look exactly like Animal Lovin Ken!😘
