I can remember it like yesterday. I was nine years old and I woke up early one morning to see my dad watching the finale where the queen snuck aboard the shuttle. Seeing Ripley being so badass instantly pulled me in. I was so amazed by the production, story and characters that I immediately watched it days later to see the full movie. After this rewatch it’s still a masterpiece. And also yes I think it’s…

This was the first Freddy movie I saw as a kid. Well snuck and watch pass bedtime lol. It was so dark and creepy but I also thought it was a good movie. You can tell this is the entry where Englund fits into the razor glove snuggly. I love the introduction of the dream powers and the new characters are very likable. Even to this day this one is so nostalgic to me personally.

Quiet, suspenseful and terrifying. Ridley Scott crafts a beloved classic for the sci-fi genre. Though I prefer the sequel (Aliens) over this. It still had me on the edge of my seat. The pacing is maybe a bit slow for my taste and doesn’t hold much rewatch value like it’s successor. That’s just my opinion. I still appreciate it being a landmark gem in both the sci-fi and horror communities.

I was so mesmerized by the posters and tv spots when I was younger. This was very revolutionary when it released and still looks so good today! Not to mention one of the finest adaptations ever put to screen. I enjoy multiple storylines that make characters flesh out on their own. While explaining the situation of the movie...that being: Sin City is a corrupt shithole. So pretty much every big town in america lol.
Marv is still probably my favorite character cause Mickey Rourke just crushes it and he’s just so much fun to watch here.

I was seven or eight years old when my mom got this on vhs. That was kind of a big deal because it and Freaky Friday was like the only (newest) movies we owned on vcr. It was also the first X-Men movie I saw. But I remember it being such a fun watch with the family. I loved the cartoon show around that time so it was kinda unreal to see it live-action. So it’s a nostalgic gem to me. Sucks the director is such a scumbag cuz everyone else here is in their (A+) game

In a world completely saturated in superhero movies it’s hard to remember that old feeling when this and Iron Man first released fifteen years ago! Gosh I can’t believe it’s been that long. So much has changed since then. It kinda feels unreal. Especially the journey getting to this point in my life. Watching this again just brought back all those nostalgic thoughts. How those years are in the past now.
This is still one of the (if…

Recently playing the Arkham game series I just got the urge to see all the batman movies again besides the new one. Omg I remember when this came out I was like maybe nine or ten years old but damn the previews and world premiere was everywhere. From our new lead taking the reigns to Katie Holmes being the talk of the town along with hooking up with Tom Cruise. It was so eventful!
As a little boy going…

As a kid my parents hated Ferris Bueller so much lol. Now that I’m older I can understand why jeez. Long live Cameron tho.
p.s. I’ve never been a fan of Hughes movies cuz it’s always rich suburban kids complaining about their lives...ok big hair I feel so bad for you and your five story house oh the humanity lol...I just can’t relate

Over a decade ago I saw this in theaters in 3D and it was awesome! With my recent rewatch it’s still so badass. I’m hugely disappointed that this never kicked off a franchise. I would’ve loved to see the rest of Mega City One and the cursed earth storyline. But atlas just another thing life has deprived us from.
We’re lucky we even got this especially with Karl Urban’s rough Dredd and Lena Headey’s wicked cool Ma-Ma. The finale is something of brilliance with all the cues of sound mixing, score and cinematography merging into one...presenting the full power of slo-mo.

The first Batman movie I saw as a kid. Don’t get me wrong I really enjoyed it at that age. But the older you get the more it’s faults show. Val Kilmer was an interesting pick for Bruce Wayne/Batman and in many ways I think he was really good. It’s just a shame him and warner bros didn’t see eye to eye on this. I’m also not a fan of the more campy tone. I get it…
