Yeah, I’m trying to think now if I’ve ever actually gone back and watched it a second time, and I honestly can’t remember.  I think I’ve probably caught the last half again here and there, but I don’t remember sitting down again and watching the opening, because it was so perfectly horrifying the first time.  (Same

To be fair, the person in question is embarrassing on an almost unfathomable number of levels right now.

Hell, he’s British, so “Take Me Home” works fine as is.

Also “not the better half.”

We’d all watch the fuck out of that show.

Ha, that’s going to take it from “reasonably easy pass” to “well, 2 out of 27 survived, so on to the final round!”

Ha, guess I totally missed the forest for the trees on that one.  You’re right; if Titanic qualifies then it looks like American Sniper will too.

I also like to think that, despite some problems with my reasoning, Waterworld and Mad Max take place on opposite sides of the same world.

I can’t remember if I ever read the other ones (which is probably a good indicator that I didn’t), so you’re likely right about that.

(explodes)

Yeah, Waterworld is nowhere near as bad as its reputation has people believing (I think it’s pretty darn good, myself). It’s weird how people who otherwise couldn’t and shouldn’t give a shit about that behind-the-scenes stuff still have a bad opinion of it when they never watched it.

Don’t forget Kathy Bates!

Two thoughts:
1) holy shit, I had no idea that movie made that much money

It elevated even the great book it was adapted from.

“I put the diamond in the coat.”
(henchman nods, not quite getting it yet)
“I PUT THE COAT ON HER!”

Endgame is a tough comparison, though, because it’s the last chapter of a 20+ chapter book, essentially, and its cultural impact has to be considered in terms of the whole MCU rather than strictly as a single movie.  Which doesn’t take anything away from Titanic, which managed to have that impact in a single

When the giant two-tape VHS edition of Titanic finally came out in September 1998"

I loved that set, not just because it came out reasonably soon after the movie (by the standards of those days) and was also reasonably priced, but it was also perfectly split so that you could just throw in the second tape if you

Same here - I was 20 years old, in college, and went with a (male) friend to see it early on. Can’t remember if it was opening weekend, but definitely wept big manly tears, and when the credits rolled my friend said “holy shit.” If I recall correctly, we were among those who went back several weekends in a row, each

Ordinarily I’d say “no fucking prequels for the love of god”, but 1) this series is loose about chronology/continuity anyway, and 2) I actually am genuinely curious how Furiosa managed to rise so high in such a crazily-patriarchal society, so sure, what the hell.  Tall bar to be as interesting as Theron was, though.

Yes, in multiple ways.
