Sorry, horror movies like Aliens, T2, Terminator.

The action movies I usually like are hybrids like Aliens, T2, Terminator. Not the stereotypical straight up action like some of those listed above.

I have a feeling there will be a few more turds than gems, but I also think I will have some fun on the way. As you can see from the list, I wasn't big on Sly for whatever reason so that's 1/2 the list. I never had much interest in martial arts movies either, but in my old age I seem to...

This is going to be a really fun deep dive. One big movie blind spot I have is action movies. I just listened to The Last Action Heroes and that hammered this home even more. I loved the book, but there were so many titles talked about that I have never seen. Here is just the start...

The Last Action Heroes Loved this book. A fun, fast read about 7-8 key 80s/early 90s action stars and some info about them and some of the movies. I can't recommend it enough for people around the movie threads.

:lmao: My search result for "sports" was indeed "no results for sports".

not enough to remember the !!s ;)

The channel is $10.99/month and they have so many great movies, not just movies that are in their Criterion disc collection. They also have a ton of behind the scenes stuff and do a great job curating collections so there is less mindless scrolling. They also have a $99.99/yr option...

Criterion Channel (which anybody in this thread should have by now!!! ;) ) Otherwise yeah, looks like $4 rental or library for that one and the other two unfortunately.

I was just looking at the list - has anybody seen Apollo 10 1/2? I hadn't heard of that until looking at his wiki, and was surprised it was PG-13 based on what I saw in the description. I thought might be something else the kid might like since she likes space and astronomy stuff.

It is, but I like it. I have close to 0 interest in tv shows, so I wouldn't want to wade through that to get to movie talk.

It's much more awesome because the Netflix thread has talk about dumb tv shows.

I haven't watched the behind the scenes, so this is just be me guessing: I think they cast for music talent first, acting second. Where I think Linklater is perfect for this is because of his style we've touched on before where he seems perfectly happy with meandering around and capturing...

I also watched the Before Trilogy yet again. I have thoughts, but I think I will save them for the end of the month and see if anybody has watched them as well this month. I don't know how to talk about Before without spoiling stuff. I am about 1/2 way done with reading The Last Detail and...

School of Rock HUGE hit with the kiddo. She was bouncing up and down and had a fist in the air during the final songs and laughed a lot throughout. Sure, it's a bit more crass than anything we've watched yet, but some stuff goes over kids heads anyway. What's left after that like 80s...
