Men at Work (1990) only got a 28% on Rotten Tomatoes. Thought it was a really funny movie.

The Man Who Would Be King.

Connery and Caine.

Don't recall how well it was rated at the time, but it's a personal all-time favorite and under appreciated IMO..

Actually... Water World is not that bad.

There are some golden moments with Dennis Hopper that make the movie worth watching again.

Last boy scout, my favourite Bruce Willis movie.

Hilarious dialogue, witty come-backs... know every scene by heart.

We watched that a several months ago in my lodge because of the Freemason content.
It was excellent.
Had only seen parts of it a long time ago.
I wonder if it was part of the inspiration for Spielberg’s Raiders movie?

Oh, and I loved Highlander. I don’t recall how well it was received at the time.
Really a great movie. Some of the drama was sooo ‘80s, but overall a solid flick.

A Boy and his Dog. Yes.

Also... Check out True Romance. Tarentino was involved.
The scene with D. Hopper and C. Walken is one of the greatest moments in movie history.

Another question- what was the license plate on Michael Gross and Reba McEntire's Suburban (?) in Tremors? No googling!

Night of the Comet....that was the one that ended when the kid shows up with a 560 convertible and the girl says 'nice car' to which he responds 'thanks I've got xxx of them!'?

I loved that movie at the time. the idea of being able to wander into any car lot/dealership and blast around inexplicably empty city roads with abandon was pretty darned cool.

I believe we all make mistakes but I will not validate your poor choices and/or perversions and subsidize the results your actions.
