BBCAM has been playing Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. I had forgotten that James Horner was rushed on the musical score of Aliens (dir: James Cameron) and used the same trumpet fanfare section used in Start Trek II and III (notably, when Ripley takes the driver's seat from Gorman and is busting back out of the complex after they get ambushed).

I couldn't find that clip, so let's watch the best work, by far, that Bill Paxton has ever had filmed.

James Horner discussing how he felt screwed by Cameron and his wife (at the time)...

lol Now they're playing Star Tek V. This is the film that nearly killed the franchise. Sybok, Jebus.

Kill the franchise film, I'd have guessed IV: The Voyage Home, that was a shlocky piece of crap (not counting TNG movies, almost all crap). But it had the right '80s humour for that Trekkie crowd, it made a ton of money.

Exactly my kind of humour (I'm not very funny). I spilt a bit of tea over it.

lmao

I liked that one

Isn't the rule that the even-numbered Star Trek films are the good ones?

Also, RIP Anton Yelchin

It was playing on Multiplex commercial free, and it was an early Marisa Tomei film I hadn't seen ('94). I loved it..

5 stars out of 5. And young Marisa with short hair in a sexy red dress, omg.

Sorry; I thought something was off about that scene, but didn't bother to check. Original clip, for those who haven't seen the film recently:

He who would pun would pick a pocket.

The discussions about b-boying and headspins in the off-topic thread got me thinking about a Capoeira film I saw a long time ago:
Only the Strong

This world can be just about as big as you ever want it to be, or as small as your own tiny little 'hood.

Just watched Magnolia on account of the Tom Cruise character. Didn't like the film overall, and won't go into what I didn't like about it. The one thing that I did like was the fact that one of the books Stanley was studying in the library was written by Charles Fort, and the film's climax featured a massive Fortean event.

Hitch. Because reasons.

So let me get the denouement straight - Sarah used her sister's husband as a wingman?

Finally watched the 1977 animated version of The Hobbit. Not bad. (The similarities between Smog's hoard and that of the dragon in "Dragonshy" are fairly obvious.) Still haven't seen the Peter Jackson adaptation though.

OH YEA! Simon Pegg, great actor.

I'll have to watch that Hobbit version again. I bet I've seen it but it's not ringing any bells.

nm, I vaguely remember that. Good musical score and voice characterizations!

A shame Bakshi never made the second half of his LOTR film, the rotoscoping and art production were first-rate...

Now watching The Tao of Steve. Yes, because the same reasons as Hitch. Heavy emphasis on disqualifiers in Steve.

Wedding Crashers is on the same list as those two, but I'm not sure if I'll watch it.

Because of another post, I watched this clip. This B movie grows and grows and grows on me. John Boorman's Excalibur.

Hardcore Henry

Essentially, Counter Strike The Movie handled with real panache and wit.

I found it highly entertaining and very fresh, not to mention funny.

Any film that sets the final action scene to Queen's Don't Stop Me Now gets a big thumbs up from me

The VVitch: A New England Folktale

Not at all what I was expecting, this is an attempt at a serious historical dramatic portrayal of Witchcraft in New England in the early 17th centuary.

Most of the film's dialogue is based on writings from the time, ably delivered by an outstanding cast and the film veers towards suspense and chills over outright gore and shocks (which is a Good Thing, imo).

I award this film 4 stars out of a possible 5
