My personal Beverly Hills Cop ranking is in line with everyone else: * Beverly Hills Cop * Beverly Hills Cop II * Beverly Hills Cop III The last film was actually painful to sit through and I especially felt sorry for Alan Young (Uncle Da…

If I'm honest .... neither really! But if you put a gun to my head, I guess I would pick Tiffany Case. @thedove, can I cheat and take Kara to The French Quarter? :D

Kara. Easily. * I like classical music. * While Kara is somewhat naive, Bibi is as dumb as rocks. :))

Speaking of THE MAN WHO WASN'T THERE @FoxFox, it is one of the titles highlighted in this month's NeoNoir offerings on the Criterion platform. https://www.criterion.com/current/posts/8503-the-criterion-channel-s-july-2024-lineup?utm_source=braze&…

I prefer "night school" to the office @thedove. :)) Although seeing that photo of Nadja Regin may force me to re-evaluate.

@Gerald. With two exceptions the Millenium era films suffered a bit from being "Godzilla by the numbers." Enjoyable, but little new IMO. I like them all the same and it was great to see Toho bring back some sci-fi favorites like Yuriko Hoshi for sma…

Both are among the best and most charismatic of Bond's allies in the field. Today, I will choose Draco. Not only does he have a small army of men behind him, during down time I can play chess with Olympe. ;)

As @echo pointed out that line: "The Best I could have .... a future" is absolutely heartbreaking given what happens just seconds later. And of course, the manner in which Diana Rigg delivers it is very affecting. That said, as a "tender Bond mom…

One of my unanswered Bond questions, is exactly why Mie Hama and Akiko Wakabayashi were cast? The story about what happened after they were cast in the roles is oft-told, but nothing about what happened prior to that. I can only guess, that Toho tho…

ah, viewing of YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE @ToTheRight, a film that always makes it into my top 10 (at either 9 or 10, but still). A great John Barry score and his best until the next film (OHMSS), so he was on a roll in the late 1960s/early 1970s. Plus …

Not a “Last Movie Watched”, but one that intend to revisit very soon after coming across this informative Youtube video several days ago. SILENT RUNNING (1971) used to be on TV quite a lot in the late 1970s as part of the sci-fi craze post STAR WARS…

Happy 81st birthday (June 25th) to the lovely and talented Carly Simon. Truly, nobody does it better!!

It’s been a while since I’ve watched GODZILLA vs. DESTOROYAH (1995), but as you stated @Gerald, Godzilla’s death is quite poignant. And it was good to link back to the film that started it all. Despite there being no theatrical release in the…

I'll go with the TMWTGG slide whistle. As @CraigMooreOHMSS stated, it completely undermines what was a pretty remarkable stunt.

@ToTheRight, one of the delights of getting into "classic era" films has been my discovery of Bogart. Of course, I knew of him, but I wasn't really knowledgeable about the full scope of his work (*). Upon viewing, yeah, he more than lives up to his …

Major League Baseball legend Willie Mays has died. He was 93. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/06/18/us/willie-mays-death-baseball-legacy.html For non-US readers; Willie, Mickey and the Duke (as the song refers to) are Willie Mays, Mickey Mant…

Happy 82nd Birthday to Sir. Paul McCartney. ^:)^ IT WAS WRITTEN THAT I WOULD LOVE YOU FROM THE MOMENT I OPENED MY EYES. AND THE MORNING WHEN I FIRST SAW YOU, GAVE ME LIFE UNDER CALICO SKIES. I WILL HOLD YOU FOR AS LONG AS YOU LIKE, I'L…

You'll really enjoy The Beatles Anthology DVD it @Fire_and_Ice_Returns. Disk 1: Growing up in Liverpool to "Please, Please Me" Disk 2: Touring the UK to "I Want to Hold Your Hand" Disk 3: Arrival in the US to filming A HARD DAY'S NIGHT Disk 4:…

If I may be permitted to vote in the tiebreaker round (I didn't vote originally) ..... ........ wait for it ........ DAF! Plus, Connery's tie. Too short and too pink! :-t

Great memories @ToTheRight. Octopussy was the first "new" Bond film that I saw in theaters. For some reason, I was off from my summer job on Monday, August 29, 1983. Visited my mother (at her job) for a few minutes and then headed to Times Square…

@Gerald. That looks like the Toyko Shock label release of DESTROY ALL MONSTERS from 2011. I recall there being a disagreement between Toho and Tokyo Shock at the time over some of the DVD bonus features for this (or GODZILLA vs. MEAGLON, I can't re…

@peter. From what I've learned there are two different versions of the English subtitles for GODZILLA: MINUS ONE on Netflix: English Closed Captioned (CC) and English. FWIW, I don't have Netflix so I can't independent verify this. https://www.…

Thanks @peter. It appears that most viewers are doing the same thing, despite the default showing the dubbed version. I've only heard bits and pieces of the dubbed version and while not as bad as I feared, the effect of the film is lessened. F…
