Your Favorite Movie

[RoyDalParticipant]

Miami Vice The old TV show.

I just watched the pilot episode from my newly arrived DVD set. What fun! It says 1984. Was it that long ago? Anyway, I never saw it before today even though I’ve seen the occasional rerun of later episodes.

The guest star of the first episode after the pilot is Ed O’Neill, the actor who played Al Bundy on Married With Children. He plays an undercover FBI agent.

What could have been better: Stilted dialog. The writers had a love affair with cliches. Honestly, Jimmy Cagney got better lines from his writers before anyone on this show was born.

What I liked: Cars, girls, guns, violence, sex, drugs, and rock-n-roll! (All the icky stuff was discretely off camera of course.) There was not one whiff of that “girls are better than boys” trope that’s going around these days.

A great movie for all MGTOW to check out would definitely be eraserhead, its a horror movie about a guy that accidentally gets a girl pregnant. She moves in with him to take care of a mutant baby but eventually leaves him lol. Its a really weird movie and it will definitely make you never want to get a girl pregnant and move her into your place lol!!

I didn’t think too much of MV when it first aired (yup, it was 30 years ago!).  Then, a few years back, HMV had boxed sets of each season on sale at a budget price, so I went and bought them all.  I got the entire series for the full-price cost of 2 season sets.

 

Yeah, it’s clunky at times, and the dialog’s often cheesy, but it’s still entertaining to watch it.  It beats most of the stuff that’s on the commercial channels nowadays.

 

By the way, avoid the movie based on the series that was made nearly a decade ago.  It’s pretty bad.  What’s worse is that the same people who created the TV show were involved with that stinker.

I watched both these for the second or third times this weekend. Both are about men who fought the system and won. Won in the sense that they got to go their own ways for the span of their lives.

Dallas Buyers Club http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0790636/

Stand And Deliver http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094027/

By the way, it is totally rare that I watch a flick more than once. Both these were better on the rewatching than the first time I saw them.
That doesn’t happen often.

Update on the last Atlas Shrugged movie: it sucked. Period. The first 2 movies were a lot better, the entire cast except for a few appears to have been changed, it was worse than a TV movie, it had no sweep like it should have for an ending to a seminal novel like AS, and the movie producers thought the audience to be so stupid as to position Galt’s Gulch (renamed as Mulligan’s Valley) in Colorado (as per the license plate on Galt’s vehicle as in the book) yet inexplicably we’re shown vistas of redwood trees only found in California and China. Had zero money for special effects. Boring piece of low-budget s~~~ with a soporific narration. Both my brother and I hated it and we have read AS multiple times.

I recommend that no one waste their time on it, just read the book and avoid the series since the ending s~~~s all over the first two.

A LOT of my favorites already been listed, but one I enjoy hasn’t been. Boondock Saints. Always enjoy sitting down and watching that. Plus anything John Wayne.

Master and Commander starring Russell Crowe is one of my favourite movies. Great story, plenty of action and not one single woman in the cast

That movie was awesome. I remember seeing it in the theater, It was so realistic, I was convinced they were about to be destroyed – during the opening scene.

Other favorites include, Office Space, The Next Three Days, Raiders of The Lost Ark, The Last Crusade, Rocky series, Shawshank Redemption, Captain Phillips, Day of The Jackal, The Cruel Sea, Escape From Alcatraz, Apollo 13, Oceans Eleven.

For those who liked Master and Commander, here are some on a similar theme that you might enjoy:

 

Captain Blood (Errol Flynn–what can I say?)

The Sea Hawk (More Flynn)

Horatio Hornblower (with Gregory Peck)

Damn The Defiant! (also known as HMS Defiant, with Sir Alec Guinness)

Master of Ballantrae (one of Flynn’s later movies–not great, but still a bit of fun to watch)

Not to Forget:

The Flatliners (by Joel Schumacher with K.Sutherland, K. Bacon, W. Baldwin…)

Screamers (Peter Weller)

I loved Horatio Hornblower, the Gregory Peck movie. Here’s another version of Hornblower, it’s a series of made for TV movies:

Horatio Hornblower Collector’s Edition

I’ve seen most of them — two thumbs up!

O Lucky Man! (1973)

Fitzcarraldo (1981)

[Governor Megachris%Participant 3584]

I’ve always had a diverse collection of favorites.

Lord of the Rings/The Hobbit (despite the unnecessary elf chick, Tauriel)
Who Framed Roger Rabbit
Saw (the series is rather brilliant to me, though the acting got worse as the series progressed)
Watchmen
The Incredibles

I can watch these movies so many times without getting tired of them.

OK you’re f~~~ing sick for liking that… but you gained back all of your points when you said you like The Incredibles.

If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.

I though SAW/12345, was awesome! “Sick yes!”. I only liked it knowing how much it p~~~ed off feminists. I was restoring equilibrium to my mind by watching it! Those GREAT movies removed all residue of the ass kissing, flower pushing, perfume puffing, feminist influenced movies since 1979….. A real mind scrub! Like cleaning “too clean” with a little mud…

Check out “bathtub scene” from The Shining.  You can find it on youtube.  Even way back in the day, men were being terrorized by the evil bait-and-switch treachery of women.  LOL   Warning: contains nudity.

Other horror film directors and writers have picked up on this theme in other horror films:

Check out “Franchesca scenes” from Ghost Ship – also available on Youtube

Swallow this RED PILL ===> Men will lay down their lives for their brothers, their women and their children. This makes Men useful as slaves. Women will lay down their lives for ONLY their children. To expect more from women is just a FANTASY created by society and reinforced by the unconditional love that we experienced from our Mothers. The key to freedom is the understanding that the woman you meet is not going to fantastically love you like your Mother did. If you buy into the fantasy, then she is your new master. If you do not buy into the fantasy, then she is nothing, and you retain your freedom.
