Shin Godzilla (2016)
"There is no precedent."
Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story (1993)
"We've been so closed for so long, they've never seen the real beauty of our culture. Lets show it to them."
Monday (5/7) was the 25th anniversary of this movie, which is not great for historical accuracy, but captures the spirit of Lee well.Last edited by Space Cop; 05-14-2018, 01:48 PM.Comment

Just for the Hell of It (1968)
"Who cares, man?"
Thought this pre-gore JD drive-in movie from HG Lewis would be fun, but I guess it's the gore stuff that defined him. Couple good bits, but mostly boring. And the audio was crap.
This next one (about a club owner who exploits a rock band) was a little better, but not enough. Oh, Colonel Sanders is in it.
Blast-Off Girls (1967)

Kung Fu Panda (2008)
"The Furious Five! You're so much bigger than your action figures! Except you, Mantis. You're about the same."
10th anniversary (5/15) of this pretty good cartoon series.
Superman II (1980)
"Well, let's see what trouble I can get into today."

Blade Runner 2049
Excellent followup to the original. Great visuals, soundtrack, and story.
I'm really hoping they decide to make another movie, but having the first two be so good will make it a daunting task.Comment

The New Centurions (1972)
"Maybe you can't change people, but you can help them. Maybe not much, maybe it's a losing battle. Maybe they don't like us, but I think they need us."
A good slice-of-cop-life circa early 70s LA. There's no one mystery or enemy; just jumping around in the day-to-day lives of a few cops, focusing on one in particular (Stacy Keach) from his first day with Scott as his seasoned partner.
Who Can Kill a Child [aka Island of the Damned] (1976)
"The whole world is crazy. In the end, the ones who always suffer the most are the children."
A British couple (one of which is pregnant) go to an out-of-the-way Spanish island for R&R only to find all the adults dead by the children's hands.Last edited by Space Cop; 05-18-2018, 12:28 AM.Comment

Not the last film I saw, but I found this and need to jab Space Cop in the ribs:

X: The Man with the X-Ray Eyes (1963)

Yeah, I watched 2001 on the anniversary of the day of its world premier, though it was just my DVD.Originally posted by Agent Purple View Post
I really wanted to see a special showing of Sunset Boulevard at my local AMC Wednesday, but it was a bad day for it.
I've come to like these special showings of old movies more than the new stuff.Last edited by Space Cop; 05-20-2018, 01:41 AM.Comment

Aside from a somewhat sluggish first thirty minutes, I really enjoyed this. Deadpool is hilarious as ever, and the references are great. Plus Brolin was a great Cable, also I really liked Domino. Also more Colossus is never a bad thing. A solid comedy sequel, which is rare.Comment

Critters (1986)
"This town's a zoo!"
Welcome to the Punch (2013)
"I'm paid to catch crooks, not get them elected."
This was better than I expected based on the Netflix reviews, but by no means a great action mystery.
The Warriors (1979)
"Can you dig it?"
Good to know. I missed #1 in theaters because I'm not a big DP fan, but grew to love it on blu ray. Gotta try to see this one in theaters.Originally posted by Mister.Weirdo View PostLast edited by Space Cop; 06-06-2018, 01:33 PM.Comment

If you loved the first, I'm sure you'll definitely enjoy the sequel. It's the same kind of "thing", less of a retread though. The gags, references, and fourth-wall breaking jokes are as top-notch as ever.Originally posted by Space Cop View PostLast edited by Mister.Weirdo; 05-19-2018, 11:09 PM.Comment

Vice (2015)
"People tend to avoid churches when they're living their lives in a state of perpetual fantasy."
Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953)
"Don't you know that a man being rich is like a girl being pretty? You wouldn't marry a girl just because she's pretty, but my goodness, doesn't it help?"
The Legend of Billie Jean (1985)
"When you're rich, food isn't supposed to taste like what it is."
This is one of those 80s cult movies (about teens pushed too far, who become celebrity outlaws) I don't know how I missed so long. In a bizarre twist Helen Slater and Christian Slater play brother and sister and were mistaken as such even though they aren't related. I actually had it in my Netflix queue for a couple months or so with it listed as "very long wait" and then they suddenly sent it. Fun stuff.Last edited by Space Cop; 06-05-2018, 01:35 PM.Comment

Predator 1987
Predator 2 1990
AvP 2004
AvP Requiem 2007
Predators 2010
Been reading a lot of Alien/Predator novels, and decided to do a marathon. The predators official species name, sanctioned by Fox, is the Yautja, and even after all the sequels, I still think the 1987 movie had the best looking Predator. Looking forward to the new film in September.
