Would think a Bourne film would go top 5 if they don't suffer too much from vote splitting.

TROO FACT: when I ended up seeing SPEED 2 for free, it was because a buddy of mine and I were trying to catch "The Fifth Element" one last time before it went out of the theaters; it was preempted by some special event and it was the last day it was going to be in that theater. \Wwe convinced the ticket person to let us into the movie lobby to use the pay phone to look for another theater that was showing it. From there, we high-fived each other and sidled into the SPEEED 2 theater.

If you like the bit in Raiders where Indy shoots the guy waving around the sword, then there are so many bits like that in 5E...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3oKwg6W05MU

xp: I didn't see it as a failing that they had to include a scene explaining that the slow speed the boat was going at was actually really fast considering the boat's size; in fact, that is kind of the essence of the movie to me and if you don't find that hysterical, you're not going to enjoy SPEED 2

i love that District 9 and Avatar came out in the same year and are like bizzaro-world versions of each other.
they should be shown in double features together 25 years from now imo

granted it's just a clip, but what snoball posted reminds me why I didn't like alien resurrection, it's like french directors think sci-fi style requires campy bad acting and dumb joeks
not a big besson fan in general, le femme nikita was good but I don't think I've liked anything else he's done, also had no idea he bothered to direct 2 sequels to arthur & the invisibles

omg I am dying at the Arnold commentary. Literally anything that mans says is funny but especially when he's just telling you exactly what's happening in the scene play-by-play.

Oh shit, why didn't I vote Conan? Also, I see that Point Break is not on my list. Let's delete this thread and start over.

I never saw Conan. I tried to read one of the books at some point (there were like a million of them, right?) and it was so rapey and snuff-filmy and awful that I never looked back. Although it occurs to me now that maybe it was a Conan imitation series trying to cash in but being worse than the original. Anyway. Too bad. Couldn't deal.

i saw conan a few times when i was a kid, feeling like maybe i need to rescreen

LE SAMOURAI
Jean-Pierre Melville1967France(284 points, 9 votes)
see Le Samourai, but be prepared to be slightly dissapointed. At least i was. I dont mind it being all about style, but the style wasnt too interesting or imaginative to me. I cant think of any reason why that film is admired more than, for a random noir example, "Out of the Past." but i need to see it again.
Melville's films seem to portray a 15 year old's sense of "existential cool" (as the critics say) but i find them a little shallow. as draining a standard noir story of all incident or action somehow makes it philosophical? i dont know, maybe it does.
― ryan (ryan)
just don't think JPM is at his best with Army of Shadows, he does the existential gang thing best, and I like that when it's most stylized (hence, LE Samourai).

yeah there are a million Conan books. some of the comics are allright. but yeah it's pretty heavy on the misogyny/racism/ultraviolence

Conan has a giant bowl of soup with human body parts in it. Does Yojimbo have that? Does Citizen Kane? I don't think so.
