latest film/ dvd you have seen

[Cazza]

Unfortunately, I think it will do enough business for two more movies. Hopefully not enough for a fifth one though... Think they've pretty much shot all of no.3 and some of 4 already.

I can't really tell, does Kermode like it or not?

His rants are funny, I do miss the film review on Five Live on a Friday afternoon. I never have time/remember to look up their new one.

 

[lejackal]

Late to the party on this one, but saw Top Gun Maverick last night, and it was the best film I've seen for ages. It is a little cheesy in places (the romance scenes especially) but what I enjoyed about it is that they have successfully made a 1980s movie in 2022! There was nothing 'woke' about it, no shoe-horned politics or inclusiveness, just a thrilling action movie. It was really refreshing to see.

Ditto- I'd go so far to say the best new film I've seen for years. The sequel I never knew I wanted or needed but it was fantastic

This week I have seen a few good old classic movies

First I have seen

The Last Starfighter, a really great scifi movie from the good old 80s

Private School, another classic 80s movie with a lot of sexy women

The sisterhood another scifi movie from the 80s, not a movie I had seen before. A B movie with some kind of mad max look alike but also with women that has magic powers and kill male warlords they do not make movies like that today Just look at the cover in 2021, all women are slaves all men are their masters until...

Gotta love Last Star Fighter, 89's classic

 

[Michael Sith]

Agreed the last Strafighter holds its own even now, super watch love it

 

[grinchy]

love the last starfighter, just a great movie, haven;t seen the others, i've been watching the lord of the rings on 4k, looks and sounds great, also rise of skywalker, another decent movie

 

[Cazza]

Recently saw D&D and GOTG3 at the cinema. Loved them both- very entertaining, genuinely funny and Guardians was pretty moving. A real return to form for Marvel!

 

[weasel]

Guardians 3 is on my list to go and see, feck knows if we'll get time before it leaves the cinema though. The second one was a bit meh, the quasi-religious/god/super being BS never works for me. Heard this one is good though.

Looking forward to Dune 2. Need to find Dune one again, it was properly good.

 

[Cazza]

Yeah, I wasn't too keen on the second one. 3 is so much better!

Really looking forward to Indy and Dune 2...

 

[Pomse2001]

In the weekend I saw Seven Minutes in Heaven, I had never seen that movie before. I really great movie from 1986 about some teen kids with their love problems. What a beauty Jennifer Connelly was in that movie

Last night I saw Moon 44, it must have been 20 years since I last saw that movie, it is still a really great scifi movie from 1990

 

[StarWarsFan]

Watched Evil Dead last night

 

[lejackal]

I watched Edgar Wrights "Last Night in Soho" the other day, fairly stylish and original horror thriller. 7/10

 

[Pomse2001]

Watched Evil Dead last night

the new or the old one ? I think the old one is the best

Old one

 

[Pomse2001]

Last night I saw They Live for the first time in many years. It is still a great movie. But I miss to see what happens after the end of the movie, I think it end to fast Great scifi movie from the good old 80s about aliens

 

[Pomse2001]

I saw Starman last night, a movie that I have not seen in many years. It is still an awesome movie from the good old 80s

 

[grinchy]

Starman is a great picture, carpenter movies are great, don't think he has made a crap movie there's something in each of them

 

[Pomse2001]

Last night I saw the The Humanoid, 100% a B movie but I would for sure say it is okay to watch and it looks like they got many ideas for this movie from star wars. Darth Vader 2.0 or is just 0.5 is also in the movie with his vader costume soldiers Richard Kiel and Barbare Bach is great in the movie

Lars you absolute legend
I've been trying to find this film for years.
I remember seeing it in the cinema as a boy.
I tried Googling 70s films. I remember the scene where he attacks the city and gets repeatedly shot with lasers - I tried Googling that description but couldn't get a match.

Now I'm sitting with our dog(she's fast asleep ) with a bowl of cereal on a Saturday morning watching it, it's like I'm 7 again
Cheers mate

I am glad that I could help, there is another movie where they also use vader look alike costumes. That one is from the 80s and it is not space balls . I am planning to watch that one tonight so I will make another update later about what movie I saw

Thanks for sharing the pictures of you watching the movie, I hope you still enjoy it after so many years I think it is still really good

Saw hellraiser 2 last night. Holds up well

 

[Palifan]

Saw hellraiser 2 last night. Holds up well

I agree and it's a great companion piece to the first one. Number 3 has it's moments but the first 2 work well together and then it's diminishing returns for me.

Saw hellraiser 2 last night. Holds up well

I like the hellraiser movies. I still think the first one is the best. I still miss 2 of them before I have them all so I have not seen all of them yet. But no. 2 is also great

How was the movie ?

 

[Pomse2001]

Last night I saw Yor - The Hunter from the Future from 1983, again a movie with some vader look alike costumes I think they have used some costumes from the movie The Humanoid in this movie. The costumes looks like the same

 

[db94]

How was the movie ?

Watched it twice yesterday mate, delighted to finally know what one it was from all those years ago.

 

[lejackal]

The new White Men Can't Jump. Never winning an Oscar but it's a relatively chilled and generally good fun 90 minutes (or whatever the run time is)

 

[Pomse2001]

Wow you saw it twice, sounds like you still like the movie have you seen the other movie before that I wrote about yesterday ? named Yor, I think they used the same vader look alike costumes in that movie

Is it better than the old one ?
