Rambo: First Blood Part II

[The Devils Reject]

Oh good God. Please tell me they're not making another?

They are. Han Solo is back. The trailers/teasers that I have seen do make it look a lot better than the woeful prequels. I'll probably give it a look and throw popcorn at the screen if it's anything like the Phantom Menace.

Disney bought it out and are recording 7 right now. An eighth is planned too

A lady Jedi, because sci fi nerds aren't excited enough. Just look how old Harrison Ford is thought.

 

[Maker]

The next hunger games film is this year too. And James bond.

Looking on the bright side, they'd have to really put in a lot of effort to make it any worse than the prequels.

The next hunger games film is this year too. And James bond.

That 'Hunger Games' was a joke from the first film, so that can't get much worse, I'd assume. With James Bond, after having suffered through Timothy Daltons attempts, I doubt they could ever make worse, so they're fairly safe bets. Is it still that blonde haired bloke playing Bond?

 

[Maker]

I really liked hunger games but I haven't read the books so I'm not bothered that they missed loads out (like the actual hunger for example).
Have you heard who is supposedly playing the next 007?

 

[MattF]

Nope. Whom?

 

[Maker]

Nope. Whom?

This is embarrassing, I've forgotten his name, Its On the tip of my tongue. The black actor who played John Luther in Luther and Heimdall in Thor.

 

[MattF]

Idris Elba. Seriously?

 

[Rocketman]

That could end up being a very long list.

Just a few to get young Maker started. Not necessarily tacky or cult but definitely classics.

They Live!
Predator (get to the chopper!)
The Dambusters
Zulu
The Magnificent Seven
Bullitt
Tremors

I could go on til the wee small hours...

Hey you are missing all the Clint films which every man in the world should watch.

The man with no name trilogy (probably best for someone young to start with the good the bad and the ugly).
And Dirty Harry, which just makes the mel Gibson cop films look like utter pants

 

[Maker]

Idris Elba. Seriously?

Yep, that's the one. I don't know how much truth there is in it, personally I doubt it will happen, I just hope it does.

According to Google, it was just a rumour started by Daniel Craig shame.

 

[Ed.]

I really didn't like the last Mad Max movie, I thought it was pointless and badly done, I think that it was just trying to cash in on the Mad Max trilogy but that is just my opinion.

 

[TurtleDude]

Ok, I woke up super early to add to young fella-me-lads film list....

The Shining (heeeeer's Johnny!)
The Green Mile (I'm tired boss...)
The Shawshank Redemption (get busy living, or get busy dying)
Das Boot ( More or less? More or less? Thats not GOOD ENOUGH!)
Saving Private Ryan (not to be confused with Shaving Ryan's Privates, who is a whole bother animal)
Se7en (what's in the boxxxxx?)
Top Gun ( I feel the need....)
Risky Business (I've got a trig mid-term tomOrrow and I'm being chased by Guido the killer pimp!)
Fight Club (the first rule of fight club is..)
2001 - A Space Odyssey (dern, dern, dern.....dahdaaa)
Trainspotting (choose life)
The Deer Hunter (di di mau!)
Reservoir Dogs (why do I gotta be Mr. Pink?)
The Blues Brothers (it's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a packet of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses....hit it!)
Full Metal Jacket (what is your major malfunction Private Pyle?!)
The Departed (cwanberry juice? What, you got your period?)
American Beauty (You don't get to tell me what to do ever again!)

When you've seen all those, came back and we'll give you some more homework!

I watched it when it was on tv and thought it was a poor remake of 'Battle Royale'

 

[Wendelspanswick]

You must have seen "The Great Escape" Maker? I thought it was compulsory.
And what about "The Bridge Over The River Kwai", another Great War film.
Or "Bladerunner" if you want some SciFi or "Brazil" for general weirdness.
The original "Italian Job" or "Ronan" for a good car chase.
Or try "Quatermass And The Pit", it's in black and white.

 

[pedrobedro]

Another vote for Princess Bride, one of my all time favourites. Mandy Patinkin looks very young in it now.

 

[Tiggy_dorset]

'Convoy' surely everyon needs to watch that ol classic. Still one of my all time favourites from my childhood.

 

[MattF]

Is it 'The Great Escape' which has the gymnasium horse in it, or is that a different film? Can't recall offhand. 'Whisky Galore' is another classic worth watching too.

Aye, I thought a lot of its inspiration might have come from that film too. Nowhere near as good though.

"Alien" Trilogy (NOT the fourth one!) Special Edition/director's cuts only tho...

+1 for terminator genesys - as good as 1+2, better than 3 (didn't watch 4). You need to watch T1+t2 again first tho...

Johnny Mnemonic. (Keanu Reeves)
Sneakers (Robert Redford, Sidney Poitier, River Phoenix, Ben Kingsley, Dan Ackroyd)
The Illusionist (Ed Norton)
World's Fastest Indian (Anthony Hopkins)
Last boy scout (Bruce Willis)
Battle beyond the Stars (1970s Sci-Fi)

Oh - I sat down to watch the other new Arnie Film - "Maggie" t'other day.
Arnold Schwarzenegger +Zombies - what could go wrong??? - I watched the first 15 minutes before I turned it off - it's a depressing drama about his daughter dying of a slow terminal illnes (which just happens to turn her into a zombie). It's shi not very good.



For the true "downloaded cam copy" experience, simply watch the film of your choice at the cinema after drinking a bottle of vodka.

"Alien" Trilogy

That reminds me, has anyone seen Prometheus? Did you understand it?
