Bosco685 Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 What's a film candidate you would recommend (comic book or otherwise) from years gone by that you would recommend to pass the time? Maybe post a summary, and short sample video. Thanks to a big fan of Tom Hanks, my first recommendation is The 'Burbs. Tom Hanks Carrie Fisher Bruce Dern Corey Feldman Rick Ducommun (so underrated) bentbryan and ▫️ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted April 19, 2020 Author Share Posted April 19, 2020 Quote eese Witherspoon (Legally Blonde) is Tracy Flick, a straight "A" go-getter who's determined to be president of Carver High's student body. But when popular teacher Jim McAllister (Matthew Broderick, The Producers) observes the zealous political locomotive that is Tracy, he decides to derail her obsessive overachieving by recruiting an opposition candidate (Chris Klein, American Pie) - with disastrous results! Here's a smart, witty and hilarious jab at high school politics helmed by award-winning director Alexander Payne (Sideways).

Old_Man_Adam Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 Man.... I had such a crush on Reese back then , she aged incredibly well but now she does more talking than acting ( which tends to be the case for most Hollywoodians ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco685 Posted April 19, 2020 Author Share Posted April 19, 2020 Quote Aaron Boone (Craig Sheffer) is haunted by terrifying nightmares of a city of monsters. He goes to see a psychiatrist, Dr. Decker (David Cronenberg), for help. But what Boone doesn't know is that Decker is really a serial killer. Decker frames Boone to take the fall for his murders, and Boone is killed by the police. But Boone is brought back to life by the monsters of his dreams, the Nightbreed, who in turn join Boone in his quest to stop Decker from killing again.

Mr.TawkyTawny Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 (edited) FWIW, here is a gorgeous, beautifully made and seriously overlooked film that is IMHO right up on par with the cinematic quality of Henry Gayden, Peter Safran, and David F. Sandberg's Shazam! movie. Superb casting, free flowing escapism story line, higher level visual eye candy cinematography as Maxime Alexandre, intuitive editing like Michel Aller and probably the single best, rare performance by Samuel L. Jackson where he's not playing a perpetually pissed off angry character saying "motherf@ucker" every other word. An entertaining night of sophisticated at home quarantine movie viewing pleasure. Recommended. Edited April 20, 2020 by Mr.TawkyTawny Bosco685 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
