shareThe Matrix (1999)
shareRed dawn '84
shareSo many scenes in that film are just so outstanding. I love it.
shareas a kid i reenacted killing russians with childhood buddies after watching that movie
shareYou got that right. Those were different times for sure. I remember around when that movie came out I had a tee shirt that said “Kill a Commie for your Mommy” with a yellow smiley face with a bullet hole on it. It’s crazy my parents let me wear that. 😀
shareyou know there's some Ukraine wolverine's living that Red dawn life right now, I'm pulling for them
sharehahaha, hfs i would love that shirt now! if all those annoying girls at the local university can walk around wearing hammer & sickle or che guevara shirts, i can wear that.
shareah, i just looked it up and see that it's a ramones thing. that makes sense.
Really? I had no clue. I’m going to have to find out just who bought that shirt for me.
shareah, it looks like it was a shirt worn a lot by johnny ramone - when i googled it i saw a ton of ramones references, so i lazily assumed it must have been a ramones lyric or something.

Probably the Star Wars movies after receiving the 3 pack of VHS tapes as a kid.
shareBack to the Future (1985), and
Beverly Hills Cop (1984).
I had both movies copied on one VSH from my Uncle. Great times.
Jurassic Park (1993) fits in there too. :)
The Land Before Time (1988). Still brings a tear to my eye.
shareLove Among The Ruins - Laurence Olivier and Katherine Hepburn, Dir. George Cukor, Cinematography Douglas Slocombe. Not seen it since first on TV but it's the first film I remember thinking about the camera work and the two stars and not just enjoying it as a story.
