Best Scenes in Cinematic History

[version]

Jan-Michael Vincent ended up looking like a character from a Western.

 

[craner]

I know, it was a sad story. That film is his testament, though. It is a masterpiece.

Airwolf movie surely, someone even went to the lengths of filming a screen capture

 

[craner]

No. Fuck Airwolf.

 

[version]

No. Fuck Airwolf.

Funnily enough, I watched the Blue Thunder movie on TV recently, that was wicked.

A weird combination of Roy Schneider, Malcolm McDowell, early 80s L.A. and fascism.

One of the great things about digital TV has been the proliferation of channels showing old shit that hasn't been screened for years, like the film version of Blue Thunder (see above).

 

[craner]

Airwolf, though, was fucking boring.

Ernest Borgnine would Valhalla all of them in a bear-pit dedicated to Odin

My dad's always watching those channels and texting me the titles of all these films I've never heard of. He was going on about this one a few days ago,

The Earth Dies Screaming (1964) ⭐ 5.8 | Horror, Sci-Fi

1h 2m | A

Yeah, that was on Talking Pictures the other day.

Have you ever seen The Day the Earth Caught Fire? That's a FANTASTIC film.

 

[IdleRich]

That is a really very good film yeah....

The British made a lot of good films before the 1970s but they were never naturals at it like Americans or the Italians. That meant that the really good British stuff often seemed accidental or actually freakish like the Powell and Pressburger films.

They were still a lot better at it than the French, though.

 

[IdleRich]

It does stand out as a British film, I was surprised that it was so tough and real and compared favourably to US films of the same era. Didn't know there were UK disaster films that felt more like noirs.... and that they were good.

 

[craner]

Someone needs to start a Eurocult version of Talking Pictures, that would be amazing.

No, but I'll bet my dad has. I'll ask him about it.

 

[craner]

If he hasn’t seen him tell him Craner says he must.
