Red Dawn

[FatFreddysCat]

I last revisited "Red Dawn" about ten years ago, around the time the remake was about to come out. I thought it was bad-ass when I was a kid, but as I watched all I could do was roll my eyes at how easily impressed I was when I was fourteen. :D

I had a history teacher in high school who was obsessed with that movie, though. He seriously treated it as an instructional film on what to do when the Russkies come. We watched in in class and discussed it in depth. For the rest of the school year, if we wanted to get him to go off-script and abandon his lesson plan for the day, all someone had to do was mention "Red Dawn" and he'd be off and runnin'. :D

Every single time somebody mentions Red Dawn, I get it confused with the Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jim Belushi movie Red Heat.  It makes for some confusing conversations.

Every single time somebody mentions the Schwarzenegger/Belushi movie RED HEAT, I get it confused with the Linda Blair and Sylvia Kristel movie RED HEAT.

Given what the Ukrainians are doing against the Russians right now, maybe RED DAWN wasn't that farfetched after all?

^ It looks like if I watch it I might throw up in my mouth. Maybe on the rug.
Vapid garbage is ok, as long as it isn't pushed like some kind of event.
And it's Tom Cruise. AND Val Kilmer! Oh yeah!  
Are folks really that nostalgic for this sh!t?
