robot jox!! that is like the a1 movie that my young self was dying to see that i still never have

its pretty lol

i watched ROAD WARRIOR last nite and it fucking RULES. i love how they went all big-budget but kept the sparse, desert landscape from mad max. i love movies that take place in sparse desert landscapes. we should do a MOVIES THAT HAPPEN IN DESERTS poll.

also re-screened blade runner for the first time in years. so fuckng great.

over the weekend i re-screened ALIENS. not too diff from THE THING imo but i have to admit it has a little more action. lol @ how much stuff cameron recycled from this movie in later films: Jurassic Park, Avatar, Abyss, etc

dog jurassic park is spielberg

james cameron recycled SO much stuff in his movie jurassic park

lol xp

lol whoops i guess it feels v cameron-y to me

hi morbs.

gr080 where would Road Warrior rank on your ballot now that you've seen it?

i can at least guarantee it would replace Conspiracy Theory as my only mel gibson vote

i'm going to do a "stills only" thread later this week, for posterity.

I knew First Blood would fall right outside the top 75. Way too low, though.

Kinda weird that Kill Bill Part 2 made it that high. That certainly seems like one of those "barely an action movie" nominations to me.

Maybe this is the place where should pick the next movie poll:
war movies
martial arts movies
comedies
romcoms
LOL troll romcoms
gravity movies
movies that happen in deserts
???

romcoms, then gravity movies

friendship movies

bathroom movies

we should do a buddy cop poll so that lethal weapon can finally get its due

rides

dog buddy movies

there was a sci-fi poll? what was number one robot movie?

Comedies has anger and hurt feelings written all over it. I suggest we go headfirst into that one asap!

should do worst movie EVAH poll. so i can vote for every ed burns movie.

yeah just do one comedy poll. don't split rom and com.

a most-hated movie poll might be fun but also seems sort of 'beneath us as a community' idk

comedy of all-time is too broad imo. romcom poll would be fun and anti-canon like the action poll was.

i saw ROMCOMs first then all-time comedy

then sci-fi

then DESSERTS

It would finally give me the opportunity to stan for Leaving Las Vegas in some capacity. xps

anything that pisses morbs off is a-ok with me

ya romcom better than straight com

Will morbs leave ilx forever if Sleepless in Seattle wins?

deserts would be a cool and interesting one

I might leave ILX forever if Sleepless in Seattle wins!

desert movie is too broad, desert island movies that are literally movies about desert islands are the way to go

true confessions: Sleepless in Seattle always makes me tear up a little.

Bull Durham is getting my #1 vote in romcoms

Dessert island.

Maybe this is the place where should pick the next movie poll:
war movies
martial arts movies
comedies
romcoms
LOL troll romcoms
gravity movies
movies that happen in deserts
friendship movies
bathroom movies
do a buddy cop poll
rides
dog buddy movie
sci-fi
number one robot
most-hated movie
desert island movies that are literally movies about desert islands

Does "Singin' In The Rain" count as a romcom?

xpost Singin in the Rain is no rom-com. Rom is distantly ancillary to the story, I'd say.

Lethal Weapon 2 may be one of the all-time great bathroom-friendship-buddy cop hybrids.

lol
