How did that guy not notice or hear 5 huge dudes in dress shoes going down a metal spiral staircase and get taken by surprise?

i say swears online posted:the snob opinion is that last crusade is too slick but it's the first movie i truly fell in love with as a kid. i think every beat is perfect and i like doing the moves alongside with the main character, indy same raiders was probably more novel if you were much younger and around as a kid when it came out in theater but if you’re more mid-late 80s baby you’re probably watching all 3 at once and lost crusade is definitely the most exciting and Sean Connery kicks rear end everyone can agree temple of doom is pretty not good at least

it's aged well and very poorly in different ways but i actually think James Bond Indy in the temple of doom opening is the best intro of the franchise god all three intro scenes are so good

Carrie had 10x the budget and looks dated as hell. Halloween is not without its flaws but aged very well. And I was thinkin how far money can go if you're precise , and do the VFX yourself

Temple of Doom is by far the weakest of the three original films largely due to the supporting cast but it's about on par with the average "franchise" movie that might come out in the 20s, maybe better

Temple of Doom has a lot of really bad parts and a lot of parts that are gonna have you sucking air through your teeth from how incredibly uncomfortable they are, but it also has moments that gently caress harder than anything in any other indy movie, so its still a Good movie on the balance, even if that margin is pretty fuckin thin

Halloween is not without its flaws but aged very well. yeah also if you have seen it I watched Miracle Mile (another 80s movie) by Steve de jarnatt and it’s incredible what he did on a 3.7 million budget and looks so good because they knew exactly what he needed to do and did vfx as well. the most dated aspect is the mullet on the main chick. Halloween owns because John carpenter is god. shame about all the sequels tho

im watching Midnight Movie Massacre (1988) and its a maybe 6/10 horror comedy that moves a little too slow and draws out too many jokes but it did give me this loving remarkable three seconds https://i.imgur.com/fgEi2hH.mp4

It's a good gag, which is immediately followed by them falling like 100s of miles through the air on an inflatable raft and surviving. But the movie hits hard, the bug room, the heart ripper, the broken bridge scene. These all gently caress with you in a way the others don't, except maybe muscle nazi.

I'm working my way through some 70s movies I never saw. hence carrie and a rewatch of halloween cause I don't remember it from when I was a kid. so tonight was parallax view. it was good, needed another pass on the script to just clarify something, anything. I never had a movie feel like it was mumbling and I had to go "what? what are you saying?"

Some Guy TT posted:https://mobile.twitter.com/RepRaulRuizMD/status/1539390205718941705 Apparently yes, especially if you get on the local level. You get potential Emmys for news segments on the military and then military documentary programs.

Temple of Doom is the "worst" one because it's about a religion western white people don't understand or care about, if it was about some Doom Temple involving christianity and nazis people would like it more imo Also thinking about it its kinda funny that the ultimate evil the cultists were committing was just some mining grift using free child labor. Imagining the evil priest sitting in his office counting coal profit rupees going "I'm rich biotch!!!"

Oh it definitely is super racist with poo poo like the monkey brain meal but its also most criticised in general, and not liking it because it isn't about nazis and christianity can be construed as racist from a certain point of view.

Yeah I need to rewatch Roger Rabbit I miss the old discovery channel show Movie Magic where they showed how all those special effects were done. My best friend growing up wanted to do special effects in movies but that was before CGI took over everything
