The Crow (2024)
Arcangel2020 1 points 2 hours ago.

I have seen an advance screening..and let’s just say this, if you’ve never seen the 90ies era original version (with Brandon Lee and a MOST excellent Soundtrack)? Meh, maybe you will be entertained and think it’s “Original”. If you are a fan of the original? Well, this one belongs in the (Garbage) Dumpster Bin with the other remade Classics (Roadhouse, Pointe Break, Red Dawn, Poltergeist, The Longest Yard, The Fog etc, etc..)

Parish (2024)
THEDEVIANTONE 2 points 3 days ago.

wow such an original storyline…. oh wait i was being facetious, seriously this has been done like god knows how many times but at least we know it will be cancelled 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Arcangel2020 1 points 2 days ago.

Welllllll…it IS an AMC Network series. I bet if they throw in the outbreak of the Zombie-pocalypse, hordes of the Undead in New Orleans and rename it: The Walking Dead: Parish, LA? It will go on for at least 10-12 years! lol

Girls on Film (2023)

Now I have the Duran Duran song “Girls on Film” stuck in my head! LOL

The First Omen (2024)
Arcangel2020 1 points 14 days ago.

How many Omens do we really need? There was the original Omen trilogy back in the 70ies, then there was the “meh” remake back in the early 00’s with Liev Shrieber and Julia Styles in it.
It seems like it is like the Exorcist series of movies…it.never.ends! LOL

Dune (1984)
Arcangel2020 1 points 19 days ago.

If you are a fan of the Classic Sci-Fi Novel of the same name? Do yourself a favor and do NOT watch this horrible movie.
If you DO watch this movie? Make sure you have a Fire Extinguisher nearby, because it is a Garbage Dumpster on fire.

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire (2024)
Piglet 2 points 4 months ago.

Thank you for the trailer and just watched it. OMG! These are not the Godzilla Kong movies of our childhood to say the least. How far they’ve come over the decades is amazing! Even though stop action movies were the hottest thing around back then, it is amazing what CGI and other computer technologies can do for a tv show/movie.

Arcangel2020 1 points 21 days ago.

The awesome (and Campy) Godzilla (aka Gojira) movies from the 6oies, 70ies, 80ies & 90ies era were all classic Actor in an iconic Rubber Monster suit. Loved watching all the English dubbed Godzilla movies as a kid on Saturday afternoons “Chiller Diller Matinee” or “Creature Features” with host Bob Wilkens growing up in The SF Bay area (Also loved the 70ies era Ultra Man and Space Giants tv shows too). True Gojira (Godzilla) fans do not speak of the horrible 1997 “Godzilla” film with Matthew Broderick in it…lol
With that said, I have enjoyed the newer Legendary Studios/ToHo studios team up of Godzilla and the who Monarch-Titans storyline/Universe building over the past few years.

Midnight Museum (2023)
Arcangel2020 1 points 23 days ago.

So this is basically…(the old 80ies/90ies era) “Friday: The 13th” series meets “Night at the Museum” in Thailand?

The UFO Battle of Los Angeles (2023)
Lazeistheman2 1 points 1 month ago.

This documentary is Ludacris and made me feel like I was the smartest man in the room. Not a good sign.

Arcangel2020 2 points 1 month ago.

LOL! Yeah, it was pretty bad.

The UFO Battle of Los Angeles (2023)
Arcangel2020 1 points 1 month ago.

This was an incident that was caused by a couple Alien Grey “teenagers” out for an interplanetary “Joy Ride” with their parents spacecraft. This was addressed by (then) President Eisenhower during the Roswell Alien-Earth Peace Accords held in secret at Camp David. Can’t talk about the details, but I was there.

Dune: Part Two (2024)
IamBlue 8 points 1 month ago.

While Denis Villeneuve’s rendition of Frank Herbert’s ‘Dune’ promised a faithful adaptation, I found myself somewhat disappointed with the two-part movie series.
Though undoubtedly enjoyable, I couldn’t help but notice numerous variations from the original book that deviated from Villeneuve’s assurances.
While the films were engaging, they didn’t quite align with the depth and intricacy of the source material.

In contrast, the Sci-Fi Channel’s miniseries from 2000 stands out to me as a superior adaptation.
Its fidelity to the books and meticulous attention to detail better captured the essence of Herbert’s work, offering a more cohesive and faithful retelling of the story.

Ultimately, while Villeneuve’s ‘Dune’ movies were entertaining, they fell short of my expectations in terms of staying true to the source material.
However, for those seeking a visually stunning cinematic experience, they certainly deliver.

Arcangel2020 3 points 1 month ago.

Well said! I agree with you 100% on everything you mentioned.
I was a HUGE fan of the original “Dune” trilogy of novels that I read as a kid in High School, was utterly disappointed and disgusted by the abomination that David Lynch brought to the Big Screen in 1984. I have always said that the Syfy Channel’s 2000 Mini-Series was terrific and well done..the Dune Messiah and Children of Dune mini-series compilation left a lot to be desired, but it was still pretty good.
Yes, even though Villeneuve’s newer version is very well done and the visuals are pretty excellent, the way he deviated from some of the original source material was very annoying. But still..in the end? The dumpster fire that was Lynch’s creation doesn’t even come close to how good Villeneuve’s version is (Both Chapters)

It is a missed opportunity not to have titled this film “WE GOT COWS!”

Arcangel2020 2 points 1 month ago.

I was thinking…”Cownado!” Moooo-ve over “Sharnado” there’s Moo Sheriff in Town.

Society of the Snow (2024)
grasshopper rex 1 points 3 months ago.

Twice isn’t several. I’ve already outlined how this differs from those 2 movies and why I think that makes it worth watching, but that choice is yours to make.

Arcangel2020 0 points 1 month ago.

Ah, but twice is more than once..so technically it IS “several”

Mea Culpa (2024)
Arcangel2020 1 points 1 month ago.

Guessing that somehow, some way..Taraji P. Henson either passed on this one or somehow, some way wasn’t available to do it? LOL

“I was fighting for yo, and you know dat”. Truly an Oscar Worthy line & moment….the script and the acting are worth at least 24 Oscar Awards

Attack of the Meth Gator (2023)
Arcangel2020 -1 points 2 months ago.

Cocaine Bear! Meth Gator! What we need NOW is…SyFy Pictures Presents: “Crack Shark Vs. Cocaine Bear Vs. Meth Gator”

The Bear (2022)
Arcangel2020 0 points 2 months ago.

Another terrific series on The FX Network. Love the storyline and backstory/flash backs involving the main Character Carmen “Bear” Brazzato & his family and a terrific cast as well. It took me a few episodes of the first season to NOT see Jeremy Allen White as “Lip’ from the (American version) series “Shameless”.
Highly recommend watching this one.

Get Smart (1965)
yellow_rose1 3 points 3 years ago.

I idolized Maxwell Smart as a kid, I used to impersonate him at the age of five and it would drive my sister crazy. Thanks for the links

Arcangel2020 2 points 2 months ago.

Same here! As a little, little kid..I would impersonate among others Maxwell Smart or Curly from The Three Stooges and it would drive my Sisters nuts and piss my Mom off too..LOL!!

“RapCaviar”….I just can’t stop laughing at that title

Buck Rogers in the 25th Century (1979)
Arcangel2020 3 points 2 months ago.

This was the pilot movie for the late 70ies era NBC series, this was also released both in The U.S. as well as over in Europe as a Theatrical release. I remember seeing this in the theater as a little kid, loved the tv series (as a kid), had a HUGE crush on Pamela Hensley…I still like catching the old reruns on tv every now and then and seeing just how really, really cheesy BAD it’s Good the show was back in the day.

Being the Ricardos (2021)
Arcangel2020 2 points 2 months ago.

If it wasn’t for Lucille Ball willing to give (a then unknown) Gene Roddenberry a chance back in the 60ies a chance? There never would’ve been “Star Trek” (The Original Series)

Master Gardener (2023)
MontyFly 3 points 2 months ago.

How did I miss this? I saw the title and thought “Great, another tradesman on a vendetta flik.” then I saw the name Sigourney Weaver and clicked the trailer. This looks interesting.

Arcangel2020 3 points 2 months ago.

Ha! Thought the exact same thing, what with all the recent titles like “The Baker”, “The Painter”, “The Beekeeper” etc, etc. and then I saw the cast lineup of Weaver and Edgerton.

I am now waiting for the next and most logical film title..”What The” lol

Ali G, Innit (1999)
hellsingfan01 -2 points 3 months ago.

Sacha is a guy not a girl and humor is subjective just because you didn’t find the Ali G character funny doesn’t mean that it’s not a funny character.

Arcangel2020 2 points 3 months ago.

Yes. Yes. She was SO awesome and great with her sense of humor…all of which hasn’t aged well both tv show and movies. Please name one movie or tv show currently Sasha Baron Cohen is in that is relevant?

Da Ali G Show (2000)
Arcangel2020 0 points 3 months ago.

There’s a reason why this “show” lasted for ONLY 18 episodes..it wasn’t funny and it was pure trash.

Ali G, Innit (1999)
Arcangel2020 -3 points 3 months ago.

She just wasn’t funny..no matter what.

Wanted Man (2024)
Alien 2 points 3 months ago.

I loved “Eddie and The Cruisers” so fanatically when it came out. I’ve since calmed down but Pare is still a gorgeous man.

Arcangel2020 3 points 3 months ago.

Ha! The Soundtrack to the first movie? Reminds me of my time spent stationed in (West) Germany while in The Air Force. Playing the soundtrack on the cassette player in an old VW Bug driving to Heidelberg with my Girlfriend at the time, playing it over and over again,
The movie, just like with The Philadelphia Experiment was cheesy good stuff. Still really like Streets of Fire (featuring a young Diane Lane and Wilem DaFoe too)

Wanted Man (2024)
greyfur 2 points 3 months ago.

Going to have to watch this, watched the trailer, and it looked really good. Always felt like both Dolph and Pare were both rather under rated for their work, and esp. Pare, he never really got a decent shot as he never got a decent enough part to give him a shot at doing the kind of work that would have given him that ‘break out’ part.

Then when I saw that Kelsey Grammer was in this, yeah, it was a must watch for me. I honestly don’t ever recall him doing parts like this before. I may be wrong on that, just don’t recall it.

Arcangel2020 2 points 3 months ago.

Michael Pare did several 80ies era films that were kinda memorable..”The Philadelphia Experiment”; “Streets of Fire”, “Eddie and The Cruisers” come to mind whenever I see his name mentioned as part of the cast of a movie..which have typically been really bad straight to Video or VOD in the past and now all the third and fourth rate streaming platforms out there

The Painter (2024)

The Bricklayer, The Beekeeper, The Baker and now..The Painter. What’s next? The Candlestick Maker? A remake of a remake of The Mechanic? LOL

Star Worms II: Attack of the Pleasure Pods (1985)
Arcangel2020 1 points 3 months ago.

Wow! This movie IS amazing! Outstanding Acting, incredible storyline, groundbreaking Special Effects. incredible sounding soundtrack (highly recommend getting the 8 Track version for maximum, crystal clarity)! Why this one didn’t win a dozen Oscars for the year 1985, is astounding!

The Little Mermaid (1989)
Arcangel2020 1 points 3 months ago.

Total Disney Animation Classic from the late 80ies era. This was one of several (Aladdin, The Lion King) that became instant classics.
Btw, if you are lucky enough to STILL have an original copy of the VHS Video tape of this movie? It is worth a MINT! Disney Studios had a falling out with one of the animators for this movie and as “payback”? Said animator paid Disney Studios back by including in the artwork on the VHS video cassette cover release a Phallic symbol for one of the towers in the background..which you can totally see once you know where to look..LOL. It was a MAJOR “scandal” back in the early 90ies.

Big Top Pee-wee (1988)
Arcangel2020 1 points 3 months ago.

This was a pretty decent follow up to the classic “Pee Wee’s Big Adventure”. It was good, but not as good as the first one. Thank you Paul Rubenstein for all the laughs as Pee Wee Herman and your serious roles in films as well (excellent role in the Johnny Depp film “Blow”)

Searing? Yeah, it was boring, not “searing” as the description proclaims.

Joel Kinnamen from For All Mankind is in this movie. I might give it a go on December 1st.

Arcangel2020 2 points 4 months ago.

I like Joel Kinnamen, he’s a good actor. He was terrific in the first (and best) season of “Altered Carbon”, “House of Cards” and in the surprisngly good remake of “Robocop” too.

The Collective (2023)

Looks interesting and I’ve always liked Don Johnson…..back in the day, he was easy on the eyes…..and still not bad to look at in the 21st century……😉😄😁

Seriously though, its a total cheesy guilty pleasure of mine I like to watch from time to time :)

This is one of those shows that I didn’t happen to catch during it’s first run, but am glad that I’ve been able to watch in syndication. It’s a terrific, funny show. The cast is really good and Reba McEntire is great as the titular character too.
