I think for me it’s alien: covenant. I was really interested in the ideas explored in prometheus and covenant just expanded on them. I don’t get much into the details of why it is or isn’t a good movie.
Luckily, though, HBO ran raised by wolves which really delved into ideals about AI and planet seeding etc. So that itch got way scratched even if the run was cut short.
Last action hero. I think the people don’t understand that the film does it all on purpose.
It is a love letter to action movies while acknowledging that those are stupid.
It’s a fantastic movie that was just a bit late for the spoof movies of the late 70s/80s and too soon for the torrent of them in the 2000s.
‘I am the famous comedian Arnold Braunschweiger’ is not only something I say to my wife without context but also makes me laugh uproariously.
I don’t know how people couldn’t understand it was poking fun at all the ‘80s action heroes, especially Schwarzenegger himself. It’s a fun movie.
One could argue it is a demonstrative of every 80’s action movie trope, then going straight into the 90’s tropes list, and it does so with a smile.
That movie is so highly underrated.
The Hamlet trailer is worth watching it for alone.
The movie, and the ACDC song wasn’t received well either, maybe because of the movie? Big Gun rocks.
