32) Fire Over England

About the Spanish Armada, which, if I'm reading right, puts it in 1588.

"The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters" (2007)
This documentary is set in the world of competitive classic arcade gaming, which is apparently way more cut throat than you'd expect. The major players are Steve Wiebe, an average Joe who sets his sights on breaking the world record high score on Donkey Kong, and Billy Mitchell, a smug prick with a mullet who's held that record since 1982 and doesn't take kindly to the newcomer's attempt to take away his glory.
It's hard to believe that grown adults would fight over something so trivial. You'll laugh, you'll roll your eyes a lot, and you'll be grateful that you don't live next door to any of the sad-sacks and 40 year old virgin fanboys who make up this movie's cast of characters.

Quote from: Rev. Powell on July 12, 2026, 08:57:45 AMThe original or the recent remake? I thought the remake was kinda lame.
The remake absolutely sucked.

Quote from: lester1/2jr on July 12, 2026, 04:28:46 PMDeathstalker (1983) - This was way better than I thought it would be. The first half was especially strong. Obviously, Conan is the theme of the day, but there's a little bit of Barberella's color and decadence in there, as well. The second half was not quite as great, but was solid enough and the whole thing was a brisk 80 minutes. What it really needed was more of a finale, like a special effects driven wizard duel or something. There's a lot more nudity than Conan.

4.5 /5 
Love the entire DEATHSTALKER series - they are part of what got me into bad movies - but I will say DEATH STALKER II is way more fun, and totally worth the watch!
