OMG, this. This one of the most boring movies ever right up until Adrian says “Will you do one thing for me? Win!” and then Mickey says “Well, WHAT ARE WE WAITIN’ FOR?!?!?”

The really cool thing about Rocky IV is that it’s basically an experimental film. The movie is like 3/4s montage. And, yet, it’s still comprehensible and coherent and there are things resembling such storytelling staples as “plot,” “character,” and “emotions.” It’s incredible, really.

The Count of Monte Fisto disagrees

Naw.

1) Rocky

Stopped reading. Features two of the best montages in cinematic history, let alone this series, along with the redemption not just of a person, but a whole nation. 10/10, would change again.

Me and my goat here beg to differ.

Surprised at the Yes rating. The positives don’t seem to outweigh the negatives, imo. But I guess it has Star Wars in the name so....

This is good troll

In one episode of the documentary series The Story of Film: An Odyssey, the screenwriter said that years earlier he and Verhoeven had talked about making a movie about young would-be soldiers in pre-WW2 Germany who are super-enthusiastic about the Nazi “cause” without realizing that they are really the bad guys, but

Added wrinkle: the book was basically advocating the militarism and fascism that the movie mocks. So Verhoeven’s satire wasn’t just trolling Hollywood and the viewer, he was trolling Heinlein’s source material as well.

I would like to know more.

Seriously. Dina Meyer vs Denise Richards is Holly Holm vs Ronda Rousey in retrospect.

This is review is very good, I’d like to know more.

I saw this movie on a first date. I loved the movie, did not get a second date.

Did I miss a meeting or something? I thought Phantom Menace was widely considered the worst. Not trying to be snarky, just that I’d never heard AotC being referred to as the worst Star Wars film until now.

Nonsense - it’s not “universally” considered any such thing.

That’s a color scheme as good as the game is going to be.

Apparently the “Color Rush” thing is for select Thursday night games. Behold tonight’s matchup. (Warning, Not Safe for Eyes).
