CP3 is a guilty pleasure film. It has its crazy moments but it's not that bad. On par with CP and CP2 IMO. None of these three are outstanding, though. Bride, Seed, Curse (especially Curse) and Cult are superior.
I have yet to see the latest one.
I was just watching what my friend watched. I would like to finish the series soon!
Great movie. Saw it on a double bill with SOME LIKE IT HOT ages ago. Definitely one of the great film noirs of all time.
I agree; Child's Play 3 isn't substantially worse or better than its predecessors. It's a good film except for the fact the kid comes across as too naive. Bride of Chucky is really good, probably even better than the first three. I'd even place it above Curse.
Scott Adkins doing what he does best.
@MaxCasino
I believe they released an untempered-with version of Star Wars on DVD several years ago. I take it that's still better than a VHS copy. ;-)
But I doubt they'll ever give us a 4K version of SW.
There is A New Hope pun intended...
George Lucas Shows Off Original Unaltered Cut Of Star Wars Publicly For First Time

I can only agree with that statement, @Fire_and_Ice_Returns. It has already surpassed a couple of the live-action Supes films in my rankings.
DC is building a strong output with its animation films. Several of those are amongst my favourite superhero films of all time. For example, Mask Of The Phantasm and The Dark Knight Returns, but also Flashpoint Paradox and Year One are seriously great films. I'm also going to give a shoutout to City Of Demons and Gotham Knight. Series like Batman TAS and the vastly underrated (and prematurely cancelled) Beware The Batman are splendid. Even if DC can't "win" from Marvel in the cinematic department (at least nowadays), its animation and comic output is totally superior over Marvel's, IMO.
Totally agree DC animation and Marvel films are not on the same level. MCU makes shed loads of money. Though if I want to be challenged DC animation is somewhere Marvel will never get IMO
'I am the cavalry' Epic!
As it's so damn hot outside these days, I spent last night watching a film that also features summer heat – Rear Window.
I've always found it interesting what Hitchcock could do with films that takes place in a limited space, and this films is perfect in that regard. Aside from the brilliant acting performances, the massive set is one of the highlights for me. I just love how it looks, and how it's used in the film itself.
Saw it last night. I thought it was Tarantino's best film, on a technical level. But the final twenty minutes are tough to watch.
I must say: I learned some things about the Manson family...
This is the Frank Langella version, directed by John Badham with a strong score from John Williams. Langella is good and is possibly the most well turned out vampire with beautiful hair!
Haven't seen this since I watched it on TV many moons ago! Was more entertaining than I remember, with some odd humour thrown in ( Donald Pleasences character always eating was a bit bizarre)
Laurence Olivier plays Van Helsing, as a repeat of his Simon Wiesenthal part in The Boys from Brazil!!
A lot of Bond people worked on this, including Maurice Binder as visual consultant. Enjoyable watch.
Even though McQ is obviously heavily influenced by other 60's and 70's thrillers like Bullitt and Dirty Harry, and a cash in on the genre, it's more than a decent film. John Wayne playing an older cop kind of makes a nice contrast to the younger cops of the films it drew inspiration from, IMO. It's a little bit enjoyable having Wayne going around Seattle, being just as tough as you'd expect up against younger baddies and informants, etc.
The film makes good use of Seattle locations, and as a result ends up a really good looking film. Elmer Bernstein's score is another highlight.
Excellent choice
Love it!
John Milius did a great job directing, A real epic, marvellous set pieces and savage action, one of the best scores for a film too! Just realised, I purchased a new blu ray copy and haven't watched it yet!
It looks fantastic you no doubt bought the special edition, I highly recommend the commentary though its the same as the dvd special edition, its still great.
On the second week of my vacations, I saw The Brides of Dracula (really, really great), Princess Mononoke (very violent, but still a masterpiece), and Jumanji : Welcome to the Jungle (a good popcorn movie).
Wasn't McQ also the first time an Uzi had been shown onscreen? I'm sure I read that somewhere, can anyone confirm?
I know nothing about guns, so I wouldn't know. It's called the Ingram in the film:
Ingram, that's it.
Ingram and Uzi is the same thing?
They're the same type of weapon, but Ingram is an American model, while Uzi is Israeli. I think the Israelis developed it first, too.
