I’m not *quite* there in sharing that opinion—the original’s one of the great American films IMHO—but I did love it more than I have before. Certainly one of the very best films of the ‘90s, which says a lot.

Dude, I rewatched this very, very recently and it’s a 5-star banger from top to bottom. McTiernan was COOKING.

Point Blank (1967, dir. John Boorman). Trouble in Paradise (1932, dir. Ernst Lubitsch).

All stellar choices. The Purple Rain title track is a masterpiece; difficult to go against.

They really are radiant together! This movie isn’t highly regarded by many, but I honestly really enjoyed it. Thought it was touching and funny and interesting.

😂😂 I’m just being honest, AJ!!

Without stating your age, post your favorite film released the year you turned 18.

I couldn’t be more excited, Bill!

Yes, ma’am! I promise I will! 🫡

Keith David is always the best.

Cusack was one of my guys growing up, and I haven’t seen that film in a really long time. So I’m absolutely looking forward to it. Thanks, my friend!

My housemate surprised me with VIP tickets to meet John Cusack at the HIGH FIDELITY screening in Dallas next month. 😳

That movie was a fun GROSSE POINTE BLANK riff. Probably my favorite Vince performance in years. Loved the action, too.

Wow this LONG GOODBYE poster’s rad

A lot of folks are in a rebuild mode, so you’re not alone.

I usually wouldn’t upgrade stuff that’s so sentimental for me, but with the way streaming services are skyrocketing in price year after year, I’m really trying to invest in my all-time favorites at the moment.

I always forget BTTF and RAIDERS are your favorite movies! ☺️ I’ve had BTTF on DVD for ages, but never upgraded to blu so I’m excited to finally to do so!

It’s everybody, bro. 😂😂

Hey man, that just lets me know the dope mugs find YOU! ☺️

You always have the coolest coffee mugs!
