He should have been more conflicted while slaughtering them though. That movie is great for two reasons. the accordion trailer cliff scene, and then some stuff with the raptors in tall grass. But he shed a solitary tear, so you just know he was conflicted and distraught! Art! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inkdaub Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 4 hours ago, Tywin et al. said: More or less true. But I always took this thread to be about movies that weren't very good, but despite their flaws were incredibly lovable. For example, wouldn't Point Break be like king of the hill for these kind of movies? It's objectively awful in so many ways, and the hero is like the shittiest cop ever, and yet, great film in its own way. Point Break is one of the best action/cop movies ever made. In it's own way?!?! It's way is greatness. You should be ashamed of yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny enough, @DMC is like one of the main characters. And he's like the only character not used in the last four movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Argonath Diver Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Condorman was a VHS that had a lot of use in the late 80s in our house. I tracked down a copy awhile back, and I loved it still. Hell even typing this has me humming the theme song. Cool gizmos and fast cars, scary evil Porsche drivers, and the sultry Barbara Carrera being the epitome of beauty for my childhood. Even as a kid I kinda hated the lead actor, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's the brilliant scientist who designs almost everything perfectly, but then is the cause of much of the downfall because he eats a candy bar and throws the wrapper on the ground from the high hide. He wakes up realizing he made a terrible mistake. He does live though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainly I'm just kinda uncomfortable you apparently think about me this much. But, you didn't answer the question! Human? Or dinosaur? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we got here speaking about my time working in clinical psychology labs. @Jace, Basilissa likes to think about what we all look like when dancing nakedly in her harem, after all. And Dr. Levine was a human, though I'm sure he wishes he could play furry in the other skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Week Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 UHF. I maintain that it would be a classic if it wasn't released during the summer of IJatLC, Star Trek V, Ghostbusters II, Batman, as well as Honey I Shrunk the Kids, Do the right thing, Dead Poets Society, Major League, etc etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should be ashamed of yourself. The bad Bigelow movie is 'Strange Days', not 'Point Break'. And not, as I recall it, in the so bad it's good way. I remember kind of hating it and Fiennes' character specifically after it was over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a gonzo satire which, if I remember right, was very hit or miss. But beside Yankovic, it had a pretty interesting cast -- David Bowie, Michael Richards, Fran Drescher, Emo Philips... Also, yeah, Strange Days is not a bad movie! I guess it's all eye of the beholder, I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had no idea Yankovic made a movie (was pretty young at the time). And yeah, that's quite the eclectic cast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
