  • TND, while far behind GE, is leagues ahead of TWINE and DAD for me.
  • @Fire_and_Ice_Returns Thank you very much! Apocalypse Now’s edition did look extremely ultimate - $17 was an absolute steal thanks to the Amazon sale. And rest assured, 2001, along with most other Kubrick films (probably not Fear and Desire and K…
  • @Mathis1 Awesome, good to have company! I tell you what, purging my shelf of so much stuff feels amazing. Even all these good movies, just knowing I won’t be watching them again, it’s just for the best to save space and just focus on what I love …
  • I have rethought my entire movie collection recently and decided I just have way too many movies - including ones that I still like very much - lying around that will never get watched again. It's just not worth having them to have them - I want to …
  • That looks like a nice family film - I’m hopeful for better than Burton’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Probably no theater trip for me but I’d like to see it sometime.
  • Very sad, immature display. It's this kind of behavior that makes me apprehensive about going to the movie theater often - not specifically because I've experienced a lot of moments like this, but people just having no etiquette: talking over the mo…

  • I will say I’ve never seen a movie better-paced than Raiders in my whole life. It’s remarkable how brisk it moves while maintaining an epic scope.
  • I’m pretty stoked for it!
  • I wish theater trips were cheaper, I’d be more inclined to catch this. I’m prioritizing Oppenheimer, but would love to do both. MI can’t hold a candle to Bond for me, but it’s still a solid and fun action franchise, and this newest one definitely lo…

  • I did not care for her character much at all. It has nothing to do with Phoebe herself or any "feminst / woke / propaganda" complaints, I just had a hard time finding her very likeable, and found that the intense efforts to make her witty and mischi…
  • GF. One of my most unpopular opinions is my low-ish ranking of the DAF song. It's good, but has never been a Top 10-15 one for me. I much prefer both GF and MR by Bassey.
  • I wish I could get as much enjoyment out of Skull as some of you.
  • I could see how Indiana Jones unfortunately wouldn’t resonate with modern audiences as much. Doesn’t help that the reviews started poorly and probably less interest to begin with after KOTCS. At least it is the last one anyway, though more success w…
  • Exactly. Significantly better than KOTCS is all I could have asked for, and I got what I wanted. It’s a good film for what it is!
  • Here we go: 1. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989) - 10/10 Pound for pound, my favorite adventure movie ever made. ROTLA is not far behind at all, but TLC is just a little extra near and dear to me. Primarily, it's because of Sean Conner…
  • Sadly I found KOTCS even worse than I remembered when I tried it again last night. I’ll go into detail later; I’m going to post a full semi-detailed ranking later after my showing of DOD tonight!
  • Awesome to see several members here really liked it. I am running through all the films again with just KOTCS left. Those first 3 are all so magnificent in my eyes, contender for my all time favorite trilogy.

  • This is a huge deal to me and everyone else who has grown up with Nintendo systems and not branched out so much to Playstation or Xbox. Day 1 purchase, cannot wait to add these classics to my collection.
  • Not being able to pay my dental bills makes me feel all sorts of bad.
  • Is everyone ready for a Nintendo Direct this week?
  • Kerim seems to have a warmth that Draco doesn’t, or at least that’s the impression I got. Either would be a great option, but I’ll go with Kerim.
  • Pam. I like Anya a lot, but Pam more. She has more personality, I love her fieriness, I feel like there’d be more fun back and forth with her.

  • A great, classic character, but I was really hoping we’d get more villains who haven’t seen as much limelight like Clayface.

  • Mutt swinging with the CG monkeys to me represents the series’ nadir.
