Dave Cullen has been reviewing older films and some of them are REALLY good. This is something I think we should all do. There are soooo many good movies made in the past and that are FAR superior to the garbage made today.
January 14, 2023 at 8:00 pm #291266Hell yes. These older dystopian moves are some of my favs. Soylent Green, The Last Man on Earth, Zardoz, The Omega Man, THX-1138, Rollerball, and The Andromeda Strain. They do NOT make movies like that anymore. I have them all. They all have a gritty and realistic factor that nothing has anymore.
Also, watch 2010 and Saturn 3. You’ll thank me. “bows”
January 14, 2023 at 8:29 pm #291271Dude, I have found that older films while lacking modern graphics/effects have FAR better stories and characters. I am enjoying like hell digging backwards for movies.
One interesting one I saw recently. Not only was it a great movie it was damned prophetic.
“Three Days of the Condor” from 1975. Robert Redford is in it and it is the first movie I think that talks about the war machine and the three letter agencies. Epic.
January 15, 2023 at 2:39 am #291325Not seen any older dystopian movies (not usually my thing despite me liking ‘The Hunger Games’ films) but if anyone wants a bit of none-PC British humour I highly recommend the original Pink Panther films. ‘A Shot In the Dark’ is my favourite😂. I admit Steve Martin did try his best on the 2006 reboot although those films weren’t as none-PC as the originals were.
January 15, 2023 at 4:44 am #291328I remember those from back in the day! Those were so good!
I actually really enjoy British comedy stuff from that time frame like Monty Python and Fawlty Towers. I also loved Tom Baker as Dr. Who at the time.
I don’t care for modern British stuff though minus “The IT Crowd” which I adore.
