What Movies Have You Seen III

Over the last month or so my wife and I have re-watched the whole MCU.

Honestly, is there a bad movie in there? Ed Norton’s Hulk is a bit weird, Iron Man 2 and Thor 2 are a bit slow, but none are outright bad films.

And talk about sticking the landing when you tie it all together.
To answer your question, there is one good movie, 4 or 5 decent movies and a whole heap of garbage with good special effects.

Unhinged ..
A 2020 version of Falling Down.
Not overly long .not too much over the top Hollywood car or fight action .
Violent in parts ( a few plot holes) ...but well made & with the amount of Road Rage these days it's very topical.
Russel Crowe is great ...lol he's either wearing a fat suit or he spent. A few months in a bakery to put on the flab .
At that size he looks very very similar to John Goodman.

So I just watch Lucy.

When the brain goes 100% you kill Korean gangters and freak out a french cop.

Started well....

Seen every MCU film (mostly in 2016 when I was unemployed). They're consistently okay. Ones with a new title character are usually the best.

The preview for Class of 1984 was on a Betamax tape we had for yonks as a kid.

When we finally saw it around 1985 / 86...it scared the shit out of us.

The new Borat flick. Some very funny stuff. Rudy Giuliani take a bow, ha ha. I can't believe Sacha Baron Cohen hasn't been made disappear, he has some serious balls on him.

Class of 1984 is a blast from the past. I remember seeing it not long after in came out, just before my first year in High School. Scared the absolute shit out of me. I'll have to try & find it & give it a run for old times sake.

Class of 1984. Where did you pull that from? Wow what a blast from the past.
Saw it on Blu Ray when I was op shopping (often buy books and movies) I absolutely loved it apparently there is a sequel class of 1999 which I'll have to check out now.

Don't, it's awful and really only a sequel in name.

It's about robots and shit and very, very bad.

Fun fact: Timothy van Patten who played Stegman in Class of 1984 directed the first couple of episodes of Game of Thrones. I believe I read years ago that the piano piece he played in the movie (named Stegman's Concerto - DO I GET THE f**kING GIG?!?) was actually played off camera by van Patten, but when Mark Lester (the director) heard it, he just had to get it in the film.

My brother had a Betamax VCR back in the day and only had about a dozen movies at the local video shop to choose from, Class of 1984 was one of them alongside other such classics as Incubus, Blood Beach, I Spit on your Grave, Mad Max and Friday the 13th part III.

Surprised Perry King didn't go on to star in big things, his filmography shows a lot of B movies and TV movies.
