To be fair, WW84 was pretty cringy all the way through...
I watched it with my mom a couple of weeks ago and it 100% holds up.
Re-watched it in the early days of quarantine a couple years ago and for the most part, yes. DeVito is hilarious. Turner and Douglas have fantastic chemistry. Great 80s score. Some expected problematic stuff for a movie almost 40 years old but nothing egregious.
Romancing the Stone has a great deal of “overt comedy.” What movie were you watching?
I think it is interesting that Romancing the Stone when it came out seemed derivative of old adventure serials and movies, but now itself is inspiring ripoffs, since we have completely forgotten the movies that it was ripping off. I don’t know if this is depressing or not. I like Romancing the Stone though & would…

Gizmodo blogs in a couple years: “Her’s an NFT of all the famous dead people”
By Sam Barsanti
My favorite version of Dune is “Dune-The High School Musical”

And he did try to steer the discussion in asking Elliott to consider the film as an art film that was exploring certain themes rather than a typical western, only to have Elliott double down. You can almost hear Maron audibly shrug at that…
It’s like if someone made a movie about a baker and the main character always wore an apron and oven mitts everywhere they went all the time.
Most of his comments were weird, but then I did share some of his observations. Why were they wearing chaps and spurs all day and night, regardless of location or activity? That part did seem like an outsider’s assumption of the cowboy aesthetic, and it got it so wrong that I found myself laughing out loud. The…
Almost as if they think a movie for children who haven’t heard the messages in it before needs to be less subtle than a movie intended for adults who can pick up on subtext!
I’ve seen the film now and jesus, that review is exhausting and written in an incredibly patronising manner, and it’s also filled with spoilers, I’m so glad I’ve seen it already or I’d have been extremely annoyed.
As for the film itself, well, about 90% of it is pretty wonderful, it’s playful, smart, funny and…
