i wasn't bored, but I won't be seeing it again or recommending anyone else does. Let it be my gift to you, that I have sat through this toilet stain of a film, so you can spend your lives doing something more interesting..... like hanging out the washing.

Doing that right now.

I honestly have no idea why Predator is seen as anything special, or any better from most of Arnie’s trash 80s action films. Certainly not in the same conversation as the first two (hell, first three) Terminator movies or the Alien films. Too silly to qualify as anything but fun, and too self-serious to qualify as that.

I think the fairest comparison of this movie is the Cowboys vs Aliens (which I love). CvsA was a classic film that knew what it was, a shameless whoring out of traditional genres for the novelty value. Nobody in it took it too serious, and it was fun enough to have some big names sign up.
I read an article a while back that suggested the producers were effectively fooled into making C&A, as they were under the (false) impression the source material was some super-popular graphic novel or comic. The link below isn't that article (I couldn't find it) but it alludes to similar stuff.

Whatever the last Dinosaur Movie aka Jurassic Park was called
What a steaming piece of shit. A poor idea for a script executed thoughtlessly. Actors patently phoning it with little investment. It should have been "Dinosaurs... on the mainland!" and that would have ruled.
What the **** was going on with the dinosaur auction? what the hell were they going to do with a brontosaurus anyway- it's a bloody herbivore, you gonna throw it in your backyard to trim your veggie patch? Loved the stereotype slav arms dealer: "TVENTY MILLIONZ DOLLAR!!!!" ****ing lol, unbelieveable. Partner and i watching it like: "did that dino just go for 4 mill dollars? That's barely enough for a deposit on a one bedroom unit in Sunbury these days. And you're buying a dinosaur for that?" Bullshit.
Bryce got a little extra junk in the trunk since the last round too- what a total babe. Would love to wake up next to that one morning, even if meant an INDOMINO RAPTOR-REX was right alongside her. As George Clinton would say... "Shit! Goddamn!"

10/10 movie can't wait to watch it again.

The Principal (1987)

Watched this old eighties flick with James Belushi and Louis Gossett jr the other night and was expecting one of those heart warming stories of a bad high school made good, instead got a film with lots of gang and drug related violence. The high school is a dump, and the students are mostly one's who've been expelled from the better schools for their behaviour. By our standards today, some of the stuff is pretty cliche, and Belushi gives a decent performance within his acting limits. Not sure of the moral to this story, or the point. Maybe it's violence begets violence, or the pen isn't mightier than a psycho drug dealer with a gun. 5/10
 
Yeah the price of the dinosaurs was ridiculous. I mean its a ******* dinosaur and all these super rich bdders are only bidding a few mil
They're the last of their kind and they're being sold to for less than a prize-winning horse. :$

And how stupid is the Indoraptor laser system? You literally have to aim it at a person's chest... I think there's already something that works like that. Bit more inconspicuous and perhaps safer than dragging around a dinosaur too...

Look you gotta leave you brain at the door for these movies and some of this can still be entertaining even if incredibly stupid in some parts. But this one has not many good featrres that I can recall.

But the price of the dinos just bothered me more than it should have considering the other dumb shit in there lol
 
Was washing my jeans and found a ticket to The Predator.

Oh yeah. I must have seen that.

:p
 
Hold the dark- surprisingly bad. Has all the elements of a good movie but consistently explores the wrong narratives. Apparently an adaptation, they should have made some cinematic changes. Alexander Skaasgard screwed again by Netflix.

Tampopo (1985) - Hilarious Japanese movie about food. The main plot is about Tampopo, a widow who owns a struggling noodle shop and two truck drivers help her out to make the best noodles in town. There's also a bunch of vignettes involving food. Very funny and inventive. 9/10
Saw your post, checked the trailer, downloaded the movie, watched it, loved it, then made a killer vegetarian Ramen. Think I owe you a beer now. Thanks a million!
 
Leave No Trace

Superb.
