The MOVIE thread

[Baz]

"Young Frankenstein" was on the other night and I had forgotten about this Gene Hackman segment......freaking hilarious! As was the entire movie......

[Steve Carlton]

Mel Brooks' directorial masterpiece, as far as I'm concerned. I could have sworn he used to advertise it when it came out as being made in "black and white and cardboard."

Even though the reviews on this aren't great, I still want to see it. Apparently, it streamed for free on HBO Max in January 29- February 28th and it seems to be $5.99 everywhere. Okay, I can live with that. I searched HBO Max and only got the trailer, which says at the end "Premiere's June 17." Apparently true, so I'll wait a few days. I don't understand the contradictory infomation.

I liked it. I tend to like Denzel movies. You will probably like it also. This is a different type movie though.

He did a villian on Star Trek's Gen 2 film, he did pretty good, but any Kubrick film is wild and wooly!

DVR is your friend.
This looks amusing.

Saw this the other day.

1961's "The Young Savages" directed by John Frankenheimer

Burt Lancaster, Telly Savalas, and Edward Andrews

[Baz]

Last night it was the classic "The Enemy Below".......

Last night i watched, Oxygen. A woman wakes up in a cryogenic pod. She does not recall her name or how she got there. Has less than 2 hours of oxygen and tries to get out. Pretty much a one woman show. Sort of a different movie but I liked it.

I missed your earlier post. We seem to be on the same page when it comes to movies. A little Sci Fi never hurts.

^^^ I liked how they did the robotic shot giving.
She handled that well!

[Steve Carlton]

Interesting. Looking at Netflix, it appears the original version is in French.

[stevej37]

^^^
You can choose to watch it in English...with or without captioning. I just checked.

[Steve Carlton]

Yep. Hopefully the dubbed version is good. In Riders of Justice, the dubbed version sucked.

I dont think it is dubbed. English seemed natural to me.
