Movie Discussion

The 80's hands down was the best decade for movies, action, comedy you name it - so much quality.

For me it's 80's for action & 90's for comedy.

animation is in its own league and improved drastically in a matter of years, older ones may have looked worse than current but had better writing.

I personally think that they hit a time where they realised kids animated movies would do better if they wrote jokes for the adults in there too so the whole family would enjoy them. And to me that really hit late in the 90's. Maybe I just haven't rewatched anything from the 80's to see the adult humour in them. I was a youngster back then, so I would have missed adult jokes. But that's just my opinion.

I watch some older comedies now and think modern comedies lack something. There are good modem comedies. But for the most part I think there's some fear that they'll offend people, so humour takes a step back.

I like terrible movies. Not sure why, I just think I tolerate terrible movies more than most people. Loved all the Venom movies even though everyone hates them. A movie has to be really bad for me to hate it. It has to be Wonder Woman 1984 bad.

I started watching Kraven The Hunter.... It's bad. So bad it made me miss Wonder Woman 1984. So bad that I turned it off halfway through and I don't think I can finish it.

It's not like it's comedic terrible. It's just full of these annoying small details that drive you crazy. Other than the terrible acting, and the fact that it feels like large important parts of the movie were cut out, these little things drive you crazy.

For example. The father is this ultimate strong Russian Mafia guy who pressures his children to be strong. They don't accept weakness. And he's played by Russell Crowe who is peak fatness. All those super fat photos of Crowe that were put on the news. This is it. He's wider than he is tall.

There's this scene where one of the guys starts pouring Vodka. The guy has poured at least 10 shots worth in each glass, and Rusty says, “no, pour drinks for men“. So the guy pours a lot more. Then they all raise their glasses to cheers and there's about 5ml in each glass. The glasses are basically empty. How do you go to the effort of making the audience draw attention to the amount of alcohol in each glass, then don't bother actually putting anything in the the glass.

I know it sounds like I'm being padantic, but the movie goes out of the way to ensure that the viewer is paying attention to this stuff. Then they mess it up. It's like the movie is saying, “watch closely and you can see that we have no idea what we're doing"

This sums up Kraven

I'm not much for Documentaries ('cause they're usually just a chance for a director to sell you their false version of events), but this looks really good. Black Hawk Down is my favourite movie, so I'm really looking forward to this

Saw that, I will be giving it a watch.

Tom Satterly who was in the Delta Force (whos in that doco) was on the Shawn Ryan Show a while back, his interview is worth watching because he goes into depth of what happened.

Binging the hell house movies on prime.

Nothing new that hasn't been done before but not bad found footage horror, if you can tolerate the below average acting that is

I watched The Wanderers for the first time in years. Its B grade and a bit silly in parts but I still like it. Ill watch it again in another couple of years no doubt.
