Re: ShrykeVerse Top Movies of the 80's Countdown

#6 Boosh: Scarface (1983) I never liked Scarface. John: Angel Heart (1987) Been a long time since I saw it. I don't remember how I felt about it. Ron: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989) Adventure at its best. six: Blade Runner (1982) It's true, too many versions. But the good ones are amazing...

Re: ShrykeVerse Top Movies of the 80's Countdown

#7 Boosh & Tranny : Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) An absolute classic. John: Monty Python's The Meaning of Life (1983) I much prefer their 70's oeuvres, but the Monty Python are always funny, and much more. Ron: Akira (1988) I really need to rewatch it. There's gonna be a screening in one of my fav...

Re: ShrykeVerse Top Movies of the 80's Countdown

#8 Boosh: The Last Temptation of Christ (1988) Bold choice. Never been a fan. John: Eight Men Out (1988) I never understood base-ball, but there are films I like. I haven't seen that one, actually. Ron: The Thin Blue Line (1988) I still haven't seen it !!! six: The King of Comedy (1982) Great film. ...

#9 Boosh: The Shining (1980) A classic I also cited. John: Airplane! (1980) I think I haven't seen it since childhood. I loved it then. Ron: The Empire Strikes Back (1980) Of course. six & Starlord & Tranny: The Terminator (1984) I already said it, I really like the Terminator films, but they are fa...

Re: ShrykeVerse Top Movies of the 80's Countdown

5. Die Hard (1988) Do I really need to tell you how fantastic Die Hard is ? It's the perfect action action movie, that has inspired many copycats that never made it as great as McTiernan. I've seen it a hundred times and could watch it any day with the same pleasure. Here's the French trailer with ...

Re: Tranny Tackles the Cinema: The Films of 2/14, 2/15

I am shocked. The trailer is awful, the WOM and reviews are bad. Sometimes, the audience desire for a film is a mystery.

Re: 2023-24 Full Year Slates - The Shryke Draft

Standings (up until February 11) Very slow weekend at the box-office means very little movement in our weekly standings. But fortunately, Tranny has another winner in his hands for next week :lol: And Ron will finally move a bit. 1. Trannyspeare - $1,268,385,039 (3 films - Argylle, Night Swim, Migr...

To me, In The Mood For Love is his best, and behind is Chungking Express, As Tears Go By and Happy Together.

6. As Tears Go By (1988) Wong Kar Wai. The man hasn't done much in the last 15 years or so, but his career til 2046 is outstanding. In The Mood For Love is in my Top 5 all-time, but the films he made before, Happy Together or Chungking Express, notably, are almost just as impressive. And of course,...

Re: ShrykeVerse Top Movies of the 80's Countdown

7. The Right Stuff (1983) I love films about space, be them sci-fi, documentaries, or the portrait of space conquest that is The Right Stuff. It’s a fascinating story that manages to be exciting in what it tells, like a true adventure film, and at the same time depict a slice of History with a dist...

8. Back to the Future (1985) I remember the first time I watched Back to the Future. I was about 12 or 13 and my sister and I used to do some cat sitting for our neighbors, who had a big VHS collection. They had the Zemeckis trilogy and we watched it that way. It didn’t take long for us to record i...

Re: 2023-24 Full Year Slates - The Shryke Draft

Standings (up until February 4) Everyone stays put once again this week, and in the end, February should be another slow month. Still, Tranny gets even more ahead of us thanks to Argylle, no matter how disappointing its numbers might be. 1. Trannyspeare - $1,252,213,519 (3 films - Argylle, Night Sw...

Re: ShrykeVerse Top Movies of the 80's Countdown

9. Au revoir les enfants (1987) Goodbye, Children. This may not be Louis Malle’s most known film internationally, but it’s probably his most personal, and important. It is hard not to be devastated by that tale of childhood and friendship during WWII. In a catholic boarding school, jewish children ...
