Per qualche dollaro in più (1965)
Feast your eyes
This is one of my favorites.
Let's face it, hella brutal, so not often a great date night pick
It's funny in places you might not expect especially in a Clint Eastwood-Lee Van Cleef buddy flick, like Martin and Lewis
OK, example: the hotel operator and his woman, not sure their relationship, they're talking to Clint at the front desk then long story short the hotel man walks out from behind the desk and he's like 4 feet tall and the woman is like 6 feet tall.
The detailed sets, the talking heads, the wide open range in Italy
And that brings up a point, the "outside" looks different from the "inside", as if with a completely different set of equipment and possibly even operators
Then there's that flute sound every now and then, what the heck?
If you're like me and you prefer "This week in baseball" to baseball, try searching for a video titled
For A Few Dollars More - "The Old Prophet"
Clint seems like he's having trouble keeping a straight face
It's in the movie at about call it 48:30
It's like a highlight There's your spoiler
I could watch it any time, picking up wherever, and I would still enjoy it for however long
I used to watch "Bladerunner" all the time and never tired of it
If you don't watch at least once, you are erring.
Green Acres: Retreat from Washington (1969)
Doris Ziffel
This one's my all time favorite GA episode because it seems like Fred Ziffel's second wife is driving around on vacation with six kids and another man!
The Running Man (1987)
Come for Arnold, stay for Corporal Newkirk
Sorry, not a big fan of Arnold Schwarzenegger.
I liked him better before he became politically active.
I think most politicians are slightly less narcissistic than movie stars and narcissism grinds my gears enough when all I have to do is not go to their movies.
Richard Dawson seems to be in his prime though.
This title clearly had a decent sfx budget, I clearly keep flashing on Bladerunner (1983) as I watch, that there might clearly be a spoiler.
I enjoy shows like "The Running Man" that aren't like hyper-real Star Wars.
The thing I like about this and other scifi is it makes me think outside the box.
The thing I hate about this and other scifi is it makes me think outside the box.
I love the leading lady with the gun.
"Who's Mr. Spock?"
"Food riot in progress"
The network satellite, you idiot, where the heck else could it be coming from?
"It's Showtime" No it's actually late-night third tier over-the-air free TV, not Showtime.
"Well that hit the spot" ,,, crowd goes insane
Seems like a 7.99999
Christina's House (2000)
Can't believe the luck
10
That's all I have to say about Christina's House (2000) .
Any questions?
The thing that hits me first is it looks like remnants of some old 8mm home movies at times, like when the boy is spraying the girls more or less unintentionally.
In this case, spraying refers to spraying water out of the hose from the public water supply, not spraying other liquids from other than the public water supply or both or neither for that matter.
Just spraying cool, clean public water, that's it
I love this piece where the girl goes into her brother's room in her underwear looking for her journal and crawls all over him and I thought now crawling on him is not going to make him more likely to give up the journal, I'd be like "Oh journal, huh? I'm trying to remember, help me remember..."
This is hot!
They should splice in porno in spots like when the dad is heading to bed after locating the journal, it would be like what each of them was separately thinking after that moment.
"You need a haircut, boy with booze"
And there's the rat in a trap
In Cold Blood (1967)
I used to have this DVRed and on auto-replay when I had cable
( In Cold Blood (film) (1967) )
encapsulates everything scary I remember from the 1960s when I was young.
And it's all black and white like it was in the sixties, right?
The actual event happened not far from here, movie recalls the fear each time I view it, similar to whenever I read about a tornado that hit around here something like 60 years ago, same chills.
In fact in some of the ICB scenes, I remember being in those places at some time when I was alive.
Before I could read, when life was like ICB in the places I ever went, I thought every highway sign said Coffee on it, speed signs, turn signs, overhead directional signs, yield signs, stop signs, do not enter signs, one way signs, cliff signs, all said Coffee.
Neon "PAY TOLL" spelled neon "Drink Coffee", coffee right here, coffee.
It was impossible to walk down the street and back in those days and to not be reminded of Coffee for some reason. Or was it Coffeyville?
Back then all the signs said Coffee but who knows if that wasn't just a finger boner or autocorrect boner. I do not know, I was too young.
For those reasons I hate everything about ICB and therefore give it 10 because I hate it so much.
It's so real, it's scary, 10, automatic, case dismissed
That's confusing enough and not too confusing.
Also a teacher at my HS was cast as a constable or something in ICB.
I'm sorry now I tormented him.
Maybe not the best movie ever but doggone scary and definitely well above the 90th percentile.
The scariest, most visceral depiction of a perception of reality I am able to recall without thinking harder than I prefer to do.
I always shudder thinking about "Psycho" for the same reasons, also
Winterhawk (1975)
Watching it right this second on antenna TV
It is almost too realistic but they really contorted over depicting each side's point of view.
I thought I read this was made for 0.858 and released in Sweden, can that be right? I'm going to go looking for the box office... right... now.
Dawn Wells in Winterhawk reminds me of Elaine Benes on a Peterman excursion.
Cotton will be alright? I thought he was speared right where most people never want to be speared
Hard to believe I just happened to see the end.
The Italian Job (1969)
The most I recently have laughed at one sitting, hope that's not a spoiler
Aww, man it was on non-cable Movies! this evening and I sure will try to see the whole thing soon.
I probably only caught the last 30 mins yet still about split a gut.
All I would say to the naysayers is that most of what I've read they don't like about this movie is exactly what I like about this movie.
Very close to a 9 to me, maybe if I see the rest I will give it higher.
Unhitched (2008)
Pure and utter garbage
I have watched a lot of TV in my life, some good, some not so good.
Rarely have I witnessed a show such as this that is so abysmally wretched that I completely fail to capture how vile it is in spite of usIng all my favorite derogatory nouns and adjectives.
I can only assume those giving this train wreck high marks are either TV industry hacks and shills or perhaps are quadriplegics unable to operate the remote to see what else might be on one of the other 1001 channels.
The structure is a shameless rip-off of Seinfeld, complete with a hipster doofus Kramer clone.
The gags are obvious and completely devoid of humor above a 3rd grade level.
Anyone who received one dime of compensation from this crapfest should forever be banned from the industry for life. Yeah, I know that sentence is a head- scratcher. I mean it: if someone who profited from this stinking cesspool of inanity were to die should come back to life, they should still be banned.
What a sad, embarrassing waste of perfectly good electrons.
