The Last Starfighter kicks both their butts.

 

That is the perfect 80's movie. Videgames, space wars, love interest, parties, fate of the universe and a great soundtrack. After that I say Monster Squad is runner up.

 

 

red dawn is great, but still second to Roadhouse, the most perfect 80's movie ever filmed. :)

 

Shiver, your posts here are without fail, either funny or informative, or both. Your artwork is amazing, and I hope to own a piece one day. However, if you continue to insist that Roadhouse outstrips Red Dawn, I'll never be able to afford any of your work. Everyone knows that once the artist dies, the cost of his stuff increases exponentially.

 

That's a nice way of saying, "I'm gonna cut you, mang!" ;)

 

:baiting:

 

Beau,

 

Matthew and kenny have obviously been listening to me for years. If you are stuck on a desert island and can only have one movie it must be Roadhouse. Why you ask?

 

(1) It has nudity - Red Dawn doesn't. Huge plus one for Roadhouse.

(2) It has a sweet soundtrack (except for the screetchy tune the lead waitress sings :sick:) Red Dawn doesn't

(3) It has hand to hand fighting not just blowing stuff up, although Roadhouse does have stuff blowing up. Advantage Roadhouse.

(4) It is a buddy flick. Sam Shepherd is a cool buddy/mentor. Powers Boothe doesn't quite get there in Red Dawn.

(5) Ben Gazzarra is so easy to hate as the bad guy. Pure evil. The head Cuban in Red Dawn is sympathetic. Way to cop out Red Dawn.

(6) Kelly Lynch v. Ferris Bueller's little sister. Sorry Red Dawn.

(7) There are no monster trucks destroying Ford dealerships or people getting crushed by polar bears in Red Dawn. 'Nuff said.

 

Red Dawn is great, but it is no Roadhouse.

No nudity plus no hand-to-hand combat = Last Starfighter fails. Just because it came in a $5 dvd two pack with Warriors of Virtue does not make it the perfect desert island movie. PS: You owe me a PM.

Did this package come from a board member? :popcorn:

That was the question I was waiting to see asked, and where I thought this was going.

 

Pitboss/Shawn was complaining the other day as well (and rightly so) someone took a CGC book and just threw it into a soft envelope with no protection. May as well have saved the envelope and slapped the mailing label right on the case with an extra sticker that stated "PLEASE HANDLE WITH CARE." :insane:

Why not just slap the postage and the address directly onto the comic? The post office will mail it just like any magazine. (Save on shipping materials!) (:
