What are some of your favorite Jean Claude Van damme movies?
I like:  kickboxer, blood sport, lion heart, death warrant. Those are my top 4. Do any of you like The Quest and Cyborg?  I was thinking about buying these two movies. But it's been a long time since I've seen The Quest and Cyborg. Any of you like those two movies?

Anybody like the King Kong and Godzilla movies?  I've never seen these movies before. Not a huge monster movie fan.  But the Godzilla vs kong movie looks really good. I may buy it. But should I watch all the other King Kong and Godzilla movies first?  Looks like both franchises have a ton of them.

Just finished watching 1954 rear window starring James Stewart. Love this movie. It seems to always relax me and put me in a good mood. Great classic movie. It's my favorite classic movie. It's a wonderful life is a very close second for me. But wanted to update this thread and get some of your thoughts on rear window 1954 and some of your favorite older classic movies.

Thanks Christopher.
I've had death wish 1-3 on DVD for couple yrs. I watched 1-3 on a rainy day a few months back. I remember after watching part 3 I was like oh I want to see more death wish series. I was like I need to get part 4 So I ordered part 4 the other day. I've seen part 5 on Amazon video and just didn't care for it. Like you said it does have a few good parts to it. But overall just don't care for part 5. I'm typically a completist. But I'm trying to change that. I try and buy what I like and want regardless if it's the entire series or not. I might have gotten the complete set but just didn't make sense considering I already own 1-3 on indivual releases. Terminator series for example. I just own 1 and 2 only. But I'm looking forward to revisiting death wish 4 as I remember it being pretty good movie.

Do any of you like or own all 5 death wish movies or just certain ones?  I own death wish 1-3. I?ve seen death wish 4 and 5. Part 4 isn?t bad but not great. Part 5 to me isnt a very good movie. Really didn?t care for part 5. I may buy part 4 cause it?s not too bad. But what are your thoughts on all 5 of these death wish movies? I just feel like part 5 isn?t worth buying. For me owning 1-4 would make a nice marathon to watch.

Just got back from seeing it at the theatre. Agreed Christopher would be better if made 30 yrs ago. It is a pretty slow paced film. Really never got me excited. I was looking for it to get better as it went along or to have a strong ending. Neither happened, other then a few decent scenes.  It needed to have a few great redeeming moments just never happened.  With all that said was cool seeing Eastwood act again. And wearing a cowboy hat and pointing a gun like others have said.  I like trouble with the curve and The Mule better. But I'm a baseball fan and The mule first time seeing I didn't care for it. But watching it a few times now I actually love The Mule. I'm hoping Cry Macho will grow on me more the more I see it.  It is a watchable movie for me. I'm hoping I will like it a bit better more I see it. And I'm hoping Eastwood acts again. Would like to see him end on a little better movie.

Web Site Announcements / Re: KC, our beloved Board Administrator, our Everything, has passed away

I am very shocked to read this. I watched the Yankees no hit my Texas Rangers earlier tonight. After the game was over I instantly thought about KC cause I know she's a die hard Yankees fan. I was going to message her about the game but came across this sad post. I haven't been able to get on the site as much as I use to in the past so I'm just now learning of her passing. She was always very nice and kind to me answering any questions I had. Her and SK were first members that I spoke with when first joining the site. I never got to meet KC in person. But just talking with her online you could tell she was a genuine caring person. The site won't be the same without her. R.I.P KC.

AKA23  have you watched a silent film yet or plan on watching one soon?  City Lights isn't a short one but it's a great one to watch. Highly recommend it. Curious to hear your thoughts after watching a silent film.

Thanks KC
That helped a lot.
The new piano score on my dvd is actually pretty good. It seems to fit well. I still would have preferred the original music from 1925. Or Chaplin?s 1942 score. But it?s still the same movie and comedy.
