I never saw Braveheart. I'd probably pay $6 to see it in the theater now.
Do Right, Be Right. :)
Well, I've seen Braveheart dozens of time, but likely not 100 times. I'm thinking the theater sound system has improved in the past 25 years, because it was really astounding for this film.
Upcoming are Emma, and Trolls. eta - the old versions. It seems remakes are comng out later.

I do own Forrest Gump on DVD and VHS.
I quickly realized that one reason I have favorable feeling when I think of FG is because I am able to skip past all of the scenes with Robin Wright. But last night I had to suffer through the whole thing.
Rewatching all of these years, I keep thinking how I recognize Shioban Fallon from MIB and The Negotiator, and I have always enjoyed her work. But Gump ws my first exposure to her, and I couldn't have recognized her for that reason - and then she was in Only You that year, and a slew of other films that I enjoyed with her in them.
This was also the year before Apollo 13, and long before Green Mile, so I had only seen Hanks from his earlier films, what might be called his younger phase - he had not used this image, this style before, but has alot since.
Not sure if there are many of these "classic" films which I might need to see this year, but it makes me wonder why Hollywierd doesn't make some quality films anymore.

** - I have not watched them, but I have practice making them. I worked at a desk next to a Safety Officer. When I pulled out my earplugs every day (had to plug them for walking 15 feet), they were yellow foam cones, bullet shaped. So some black pen ink would convert each to a Minion, and I'd line them up along the top of the Safety guy's monitor. When drawing these at first, if you make a mistake, a one-eyed merely becomes a 2-eyed, etc. Easy.

I'm a bit baffled at how anyone doesn't know about Minions. From the original Despicable Me movie, they were Gru's henchmen, his MINIONS, as he called them. Literal minions. Now 3 Despicable Me movies and their own 2nd spin off movie...

This week my local theater is showing Labyrinth. Which I never saw in cinema. Reading about it, I see it was filmed next door to Legend, and the casts and crews intermingled regularly - Mia Sara met her husband here. So it seems Jennifer Connolly and Tom Cruise likely met and perhaps hung out a bit. Now they are in Top Gun 2 together, without apparently every sharing roles in a film before.

Speaking of Mia Sara...
She made a much better Harley Quinn, IMO.

The Hunt actually looks pretty good. I thought it had come out already, but I guess it was postponed last summer.
It's probably a bit too gory for my tastes though. Maybe I'll just watch The Pest for the 10th time instead if I want to get my Most Dangerous Game on again.

Quote:Hunt won't get any money from me, too close to reality. Maybe a film about those insane delusional Libtards being hinted down by reasonable folk would spur the revenge twinge better.
