Don't Tell Mom The Baby Sitters Dead.


Ok so as a kid and I reiterate kid I enjoyed it. So it was good, BACK THEN. Probably even more corny now than ever. I'm just being Nostalgic. Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey gotta love Keeanu Reeves and that Grim Reaper campaigner.

Alright guys so I started watching Twister but couldn't get into it. More so it was getting on and I needed to win down, not up. Had me all twisted! Too frenetic, I'll have to watch it later. But man I like that country life style and country way of living. I could live in places like that in America and just watch the football.

I watched another movie. Captive or some shit. That chick from The 90's movies and also appeared in Shooter as the chick Mark Warhlberg hooked up with. I enjoyed the movie and it was based on a true story, apparently. I'll get back to watching Twister at some point and I do Like Holly Hunt and remember her well from Mad About You. It was always on after Seinfeld!
 
Apologies for the large list, but I just went to my iMDB and here are the films from the 90's I rated 8/10 or above. Looking through the thread there are a few that could or would make it below that I haven't watched in a long time like Terminator 2, Point Break, Casino, The Last Boy Scout, Demolition Man, etc.

Fight Club
American History X
Funny Games
Dark City
Boyz n the Hood
Total Recall
Nil by Mouth
Nemesis
Starship Troopers
Pulp Fiction
Audition
Cube
Clerks
The Big Lebowski
A Few Good Men
Candyman
Ringu
The Day of the Beast
Misery
GoodFellas
Silence of the Lambs
The Thirteenth Floor
Lionheart/AWOL/Wrong Bet (or whatever it was called)
Pleasantville

these are the ones that I checked out for the first time during 2023 and enjoyed the most:

1. Summer of Sam (1999, Spike Lee)
2. Light Sleeper (1992, Paul Schrader)
3. Blue Steel (1990, Kathryn Bigelow)
4. West Beirut (1998, Ziad Doueiri)
5. The Replacement Killers (1998, Antoine Fuqua)
6. Amy (1998, Nadia Tass)
7. Ermo (1994, Xiaowen Zhou)
8. Spotswood (1992, Mark Joffe)
9. For Love of the Game (1999, Sam Raimi)
10. Jeans (1998, Shankar)

HM: Galaxy Quest ('99), Ravenous ('99), La Promesse ('96), True Romance ('93), Get Real ('98), Indictment: The McMartin Trial ('95)

I'd recommend any of these if they sound interesting to you, they are all by now classics of a kind that each do their particular terrain very well. Some have flaws, some are acquired tastes, but you might really dig them.

For Love of the Game (1999, Sam Raimi) - Good one. K.C is brilliant.

Blue Steel (1990, Kathryn Bigelow) - Awesome. The cop get's stalked hey? And framed too? Good flick.
 
Heat


'' Pass the cream ''

'' Lady why are you so interested in what I read or what I do ''


arrogant campaigner:tearsofjoy:
 
Join Voight. I forgot to mention the other day when I watched Varsity Blues how good was he? All star cast James Van Der Beek. That chick from Road Trip and The Butter Fly Effect. And of course, The great Paul Walker. What a legend I love him.

Voighty was Epic in Heat and in Varsity Blues. Anaconda what a voice!
 
Heat

Alternate scenarios

And fill me in on this. Was Neil disappointed that Val Kilmer didn't go with him? I think so. Can someone clarify for me. When he went at the door and John Voight said '' it's a free country '' was he making reference to Val who wanted to go his own way?

If only Voight didn't mention where Wayne Gro was when he was on the phone to him while driving with that book store chick. '' You're home free '' I wish Neil just kept driving and sailed off into the sunset. It did make a good ending though the way it actually happened. But **** I wish he just kept driving on the right path literally. But I do understand that in his mind, Gro killed innocent people. Got his mate killed as well and ****ed up his plans. That Van Zam campaigner got what he deserved too.

I felt bad for that chick for the first time last night. Maybe I have before, but watching it I thought what a campaigner Neil. I know his reasons. But he had it all, all he had to do was get on that plane.

Also Ashley Judd. Was she going to do jail time? As if she wouldn't have exposed Val when he got out the car if it was her ass on the line. I only just thought yesterday what would have happened to them after all of this.

And that guy that got shot dead after they robbed the bank. Man he had a lot of money too and assets. He should have walked away as Neil said. Neil was awesome. But that greed factor drove them to their own down fall. It happens. We've all been there and done that to some degree.

Awesome movie. Probably my all time favourite. It would be my number 1 actually because it had it all. The story line. The creativity. The cast. The music. Everything.

De Niro and Pacino were like a Lockett-Ablett State of Origin combination.

10/10
 
Philadelphia
Dumb and Dumber
The Shawshank Redemption
Forrest Gump
The Green Mile
American Beauty
Titanic (I get why people hate this for the soppy romance aspect but I love the visuals).
 
I had no idea until now that in the movie Sleepers the young Tommy Marcano was played by Jonathan Tucker who starred in Sleepers and in that movie briefly Sweet Virginia.

Addison I did find out a couple of years ago was played by that awesome actor in Sicario and who played Bottles in Shot Caller. Jefferey Donovan.

And only now I saw Dash Mihok played the older thug at the boys home. I think he's in Ray Donovan

Saverio Guerra was in Becker I think too. He was also in Sleepers.

That movie btw is One of a kind. The cast were amazing. The story brilliant, just an awesome film. Pitt, De Niro, King Benny. Man ****en wow.

And wtf, only now I also find out Dustin Hoffman was Danny Schneider, the dud lawyer with the alcohol problem and coke addict lmao.
