any slightly more 70s/80s 'action' genre ones welcomed!

Quote from: Rev. Powell on July 04, 2025, 11:43:36 AMMy SPACEBALLS opinion is unpopular.  :tongueout:

 I loved STAR WARS


I despise STAR WARS and anything STAR WARS related.
Big budget Flash Gordon crap.
I'm kind of, I dunno..ambivalent towards them. I refused to watch any for a long time. I watched the original trilogy...and was underwhelmed. Like, I can see how people might like them, but it's not for me. Don't hate it, won't watch again.



I didn't like the original when it first came out except for Han Solo.  Luke Skywalker was too whiny and I just didn't connect with the story or look of the film.  Empire was a little better but I couldn't care less about the rest of them.  Give me Starcrash or The Humanoid any day.  I liked the original Battlestar Galactica way more than Star Wars.

Quote from: M.10rda on July 05, 2025, 12:52:50 PMMy parents took me to see it in the theater for (iirc) my 10th birthday. Even at 10, I was mildly underwhelmed by it, though I loved STAR WARS and ALIEN.

there was 1 kid in our primary school who'd seen ALIEN, and when he told me about the stomach bursting scene I was obsessed. I used to repeatedly ask him to describe that scene to me in detail  :bouncegiggle: 

eventually saw ALIEN in my 20s!

Oh how lovely. I wish I'd known students like you in my elementary (primary) school! I don't think I met a single person outside my household who was ever remotely interested in anything I'd read or watched until I was at least 15 year old.

the trials of being a 'weird' kid! (I include myself in that lol... luckily I had an equally weird kid who lived next door from the age of 7, so we kind of weird-bonded)

if you mean rhe original, I don't think I've ever made it through... the overall vibe is too cloyingly low key for me, not enjoyable. imo

The first newspaper printed with color was the "Illustrated London News" Christmas Supplement on December 22, 1855. It featured a full-color cover and three additional full-page color images printed from woodblocks. While the Milwaukee Journal used blue and red in 1891, and the first color comic appeared in 1894, the "Illustrated London News" is recognized as the first newspaper to print a significant portion in full color.

The first magazine to include color illustrations was Scribner's Magazine, which was launched in 1887. While some magazines had hand-colored plates earlier, Scribner's Magazine was the first to feature color illustrations as a regular part of its content, according to Princeton University.

The BLADE RUNNER DVD box set I have has five different versions of the same film. 😳🐢

The drums kinda remind me of Shakin' by Eddie Money...

The rest of it kinda makes me think of The Village People doing a cover of Holy Diver......
