I'm watching it RN in my boxers. i'm 47 years old and first was this when I as 9 years old in 1986. i'm now planning on getting my grandkids to watch it. I think a 9 year old today would love it as 9 year old me in '86.
Have you seen the Soviet film Amphibian Man? It's basically James Bond combined with Aquaman. It's incredible. Funny thing is that it predated the first James Bond picture by a couple years. James Bond copied the Villians Lair from this movie. All these Soviet Movies are now free to watch in HD on Youtube now. I highly recommend it if you haven't seen it.
That's pretty damn cool.
I just watched it and I was shocked how good it was! This movie was genuinely scary like a blend of Alien and Aliens. Now I regret not going to see it in the theater!
Do you think that was a call back to his scene in Pulp Fiction? He literally had "The Gimp" in Pulp Fiction.
Quentin Tarantino said he wanted to remake this movie but set it in Jim Crow Mississippi. The concept would be the humans are the baddies as KKK members suddenly befriend black people over their Klan friends. Sounds good to me!
I watched it on rental from a local video store in Chicago at my grandmother house in 1985. It scared the shit out 8 year old me. My grandmother had trees that dropped spikey seed pods on the lawn and she would tell my brothers and I the pods are gonna get you! That shit scarred me for years.
It was literally the Romans. Just 71 Years before Jesus they Cusified 6,000 Men in one day after defeating Spartacus' Army. Romans LOVED to crusify people it was their thing.
If Your still around it's Free to watch on Tubi.
Mel Gibson was the worlds biggest movie star and director of course that was going to be huge news. Same thing happened to Kramer form Seinfeld when he went on stage screaming the N word at hecklers in the audience.
Kanye was off his meds and hanging out with a the Hispanic homosexual Neo Nazi named Nick Fuentes. He was also running with another homosexual Milo Yiannopoulos. Kanye isn't gay he got into a little trouble right after that viral video he did with Alex Jones for his fine ass Italian GF was giving him head on a Canal boat. Trump just won the Election so whether you like the Jews or not Trump is gonna give em all of Gaza if they want it.
The last 20 minutes reminded me of Rambo. Big Ole' George was a crack shot! His little pistol held like 300 rounds and didn't run out of ammo until the last baddie died. This classic inspired so many great action movies from the 80s.
It's fucking hilarious these days. I don't know if your a right or a left wing lunatic. Both of your groups hate the Jews now. Horse shoe theory in full effect. Do you consider yourself left or right wing? I'm doing an experiment and need the data.
Commercials weren't distracting. Watching George Kennedy lasso a Chain around a mans neck and choke him to death is worth the price of watching ads.
If your still alive it currently free to watch on Tubi!
Stalin took all of Eastern Europe finalized in Molotov/Ribbentrop Pact except for Finland which kicked the Soviets asses.. TWICE. Even more than that after Hitler watched as Stalin and his impotent army couldn't take the tiny Country of Finland is what emboldened Hitler to attack the USSR in June 22, 1941. He would have invaded sooner if not for Mussolinni getting his teeth kicked in the the Greek and begged Hitler for help before Germany could go ahead with Operation Barbarossa.
When Stalin took the Baltic States he promised them the world to get them to get them to capitulate and soon as Soviet Military was allowed in reneged on all his promises in June of 1940. They sent many people to the Gulags and allowed most of who was left to starve. I saw in a documentary that one said that "They pretended to Pay us so we pretended to Work". After struggling under the boot of the Soviets for a year when Germany came in to take out the Soviets your damn right they were happy to join their ranks to fight the Soviets.
Red Letter Media just did a special on this movie and it looks incredible!
At the beginning of the picture we see Lawrence riding recklessly on a Motorcycle and ends up crashing to his death. I assumed he was just an adrenaline junkie looking for a thrill. By the end of the picture I think Lawence was probably suicidal or at a minimum even if he didn't purposely kill himself intentionally just wanted to feel something... anything.
After he is taken prisoner by the Turks it doesn't show it but I believe he was raped by the Turkish General and that killed the wonderful spirit that Lawrence had before he was taken prisoner. After that event he basically wants to just give up but is carried on by the idea of capturing Damascus for the Arabs to start a new nation. When that goes tits up Lawrence has nothing to live for.
This reminds me so much of Orson Wells Writing/Directing/Starring Citizen Kane at age 24. Both made their unappreciated Masterpiece's at such a young age. Citizen Kane wasn't recognized for the master piece that it is until 20 years after it's release. Freddy Got Fingered also took about 20 years to start getting the recognition it deserved. I recall in 2001 when I also was 24 years old thinking it was the funniest movie I'd ever seen.
On imdb it has half votes giving it a 10/10 and the other half a 1/10. All but confirms it's the perfect comedy. Patrice O'Neal once said a perfect joke should have half the room think it's the funniest thing they ever heard and the other half being in absolute horror. That perfect joke is this movie.
#1: Forrest Gump is ranked #11 on IMDB top 250 insane. I enjoyed it but it doesn't even belong on the list.
#2: Top Gun: Maverick is ranked #143 just ahead of The Sixth Sense, The Unforgiven and Pan's Labyrinth. Top Gun was a fun movie but come TF on.
#3: Dead Poet Society is ranked #191 ahead of The Deer Hunter and Jaws. No f'king way.
