Lethal Weapon 2  Twirling TongueOut TongueOut TongueOut

Supposed to be the grand anti-South African film of all time but it failed as, high age restriction notwithstanding, it was the South African box office hit of the year. Showing two things (apart from two fingers at the filmmakers): South Africans appreciate a good action movie - which I admit, it was - and that South Africans can laugh at themselves, even if all the usual all-SA's-are-racists-and-have-weird-accents-and-manners stereotypes are on display.

I was with a girl at the time, so I was forced to watch some of it. I got real drunk and passed out, so I never finished it, thank the Lords of Liquor.

19. Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure (1989)   -   Probably saw it, but don't remember so it's the only one I am unsure if I've seen. 

I like PATRICK SWAYZE so that would be why I'd ever watch that DIRTY DANCING again. 

I highly recommend THEY LIVE which is just wonderful gunk.  Real movie junkfood.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
