This is what I need:

Just got another VHS lot (there's a handful here that were never released on DVD), some of these would've been a bitch to track down individually so I'm glad I got these all together at once.

52 Pick-Up, haven't seen it, but I love Frankenheimer, and I'm still on a Scheider kick after watching Sorcerer recently.



Alien Warrior. No idea. Looks pretty lovely though!



You'd think for a movie called BEER, it'd be a little easier tracking down info on this one. Nope.



Another version, and hey, I'm pretty sure that's David Allen Grier on the cover.



Deadly Force. Stoney Cooper will be the name of my next bong.



Delta Force. gently caress YEAH CHUCK!



Delta Force 2, please Chuck don't hurt'em!



Haven't seen this one either, but I love Rodney so hopefully it's good.



8 Million Ways To Die. Is that supposed to be Jeff Bridges on the cover? Who the hell knows.



The Emerald Forest. That poster's pretty blah, but that tagline is great.



The Hidden. This movie loving owns.



Hitz. Like Cuba Gooding Jr. there in the background, I have no idea what the gently caress's going on in this one.



Lockdown. Starring that one guy!



Love Letters. Yowza. Wondering if Jamie Lee Curtis pulls them titties out in this.



Scandalous. Quite.



Mannequin. A classic. That Andrew McCarthy is going places!



Once Bitten. Jim Carrey's first movie. He had nowhere to go but down after this.



Sean Connery is not putting up with your poo poo.



Phantom of Death, again no idea, but Ruggero Deodato!



The Sicilian. Sure, why not.



Fast Talking. Another ultra-obscuro movie with no good images online.



And finally, the motherfucking Dice-Man.



No poster for me, but you are absolutely my favorite poster in this thread

You might not be so excited after you actually watch it. This movie is over two hours long and the Delta Force don't actually start doing anything until the last 15 minutes. The vast majority of this snore-fest is an airplane hostage drama with George Kennedy.
Delta Force 2 is fun though.

That's a pretty average compound bow. It just looks weird on movie posters because movies really like traditional bows and haven't caught up to technology having moved on for a lot of uses.

More to the point, does Lee Marvin fire a bazooka while cradling it in his arms in it?

Also not looking where he's firing it. So cool.

They don't do it to make him intimidating - the film's more like Stalker or something. He's a spaceman, and the forest is this alien world. It's a really good movie.

No, what's funny is that compound bows are significantly more accurate with no loss of killing power. The purpose of the compounding is to reduce the pull weight without reducing the energy of the shot, which in turn increases accuracy because you're not straining to draw and hold it. Hawkeye is basically saying to this kid "Your dad bought you a compound bow? Did he want you to be able to hit something?"

Back on topic: the bow in the poster is a Bowtech Insanity CPX Black Ops. From what little I personally know about bow hunting, this is the bow of choice for macho assholes who want to show off because it has the heaviest pull of anything on the market (adjustable to 80lb, but most people who own one will have it at the minimum 40lb you may be quite sure) and most serious hunters deride it.

E: a quote from the same website selling that bow:

quote:

Unless you have a really good reason to shoot a heavyweight bow - beyond just a barbed-wire tattoo and some intimidating facial hair - we strongly suggest you stick with the common draw weights.

The argument they tend to try to make in the comics when they're justifying Hawkeye using a recurve is that he's able to achieve that level of accuracy with one via his superhuman skills and keep up a much faster shooting pace, for what it's worth. Criticising a kid for using one makes no sense and I'm gonna assume the writer is dumb. If it's not Faction Hawkeye, it doesn't count.

Looks like someone has been watching this again.

Most people who write Hawkeye have no clue about archery. His recurve bow is meant to have a 250lb weight, which is 50lbs heavier than the heaviest longbow ever shot and over four times the typical modern weight.

It's funny hecause it's Hawkeye being a dick to a little kid for no reason. It was written by the fabulous Zeb Wells in Avenging Spider-Man.

I know what compound bows are like...or at least I did twenty years ago. Before the cam wheels became the size of my head and they got all these speed holes in them. gently caress, has it been that long since I've been out bowhunting?

Uh I'm not sure who thinks the Olsen twins are a complete joke, they don't act in anything they just run around earning a billion loving dollars with their successful companies. Every once in a while they make a tabloid based on who they are dating but even that's rare. If you want former child actors who are a complete joke, compare and contrast their careers to someone like Dustin Diamond.

I think he's just stuck in 2004, back when there was the little to-do about Mary-Kate's eating disorders.

Also I had no idea Elizabeth Olsen was their sister and it's blown my mind.
