Braveheart
This is probably one of my favorite movies (I have a lot of them) This movie has everything you want, violence and lots of it. It has a great story, great music, and leaves you awe-struck at the end. You are ready to head out and beat some Red Coat Hide. I just had to buy this movie. I also bought the sound track, which is really really good. If you haven't seen this, after kicking yourself in the arse, you should head out to the video store and rent it.

Duel(1971)
Directed by Steven Spielberg, this helped launch his career. This movie stars Dennis Weaver and the story of the movie is a Trucker who harrasses poor Dennis who has a crappy car that overheats. It's a really funny movie, but I think it was probably meant to be scary. If you're the type of person that likes MST3000 type movies, get this one. It's great to watch with friends. TNT/TBS runs it every so often.

Warning: Don't read if you don't want to spoil the plot
Dennis Weaver is such a puss. He's the woman of his house. He has those faery sideburns. Those google glasses. This first mistake was passing the truck while it was trying to go up hill. He passed the truck 2 times without signaling. Then he got to the gas station first, making the truck driver have to wait for him. He was probably like, that jackass passed me two times when I was trying to go up hill, and made me wait at the Gas station too. Dennis should have checked the engine himself after the service guy pointed out the problem. Instead he ignored it like a lil bitch. Then after the Truck was leaving the gas station, he came apon Dennis going 40 mph. 40 mph! I'd run his ass off the road too. Then he starts honking at the guy. You don't honk at a truck. So the Truck waved him around him, even tho another car was coming. That was a really nice trick. Dennis shouldn't have gone around if he couldn't see ahead, that was his mistake. Then he passed the truck, which he shouldn't have done. It was better to have the truck ahead, and just waited, instead of going around. THEN it looks like he flipped off or waved at the truck after he passed it. More and more mistakes. So after he did pass, and the truck starts riding his ass, he should have quickly jerked the car to one side and jammed on the brakes. The Truck would have shot right by him like Buck Rogers. So we get to the restraunt scene. What I woulda done is asked whose truck was parked out there. Ask the whole bar at once. If no one answered, I would have walked out and started punching holes in the guys tires. He couldn't follow with a bunch of flat tires. Then if the guy did run to his truck, get in the car and book for it. At the final scene when the truck goes over, the door was open as if the guy had jumped, but they just ended it. I woulda liked Dennis to go see the body or something, not sitting there crying like a lil bitch.

Who was the truck driver? Well he had boots, it looked like a blue shirt.

The Warriors(1979)
This was one of the original Gansta movies and I love it. Fights broke out in the theaters over this baby. It was awesome. Hey Warriors, come out and play. I watch this baby all the time. Can you dig it? Can you dig it!!!

One question, if the Warriors just sent a 9 guy team to the meeting, where was the rest of the gang when they got back to Coney Island? Wouldn't they be around to meet them?

3 O'Clock High(1987)
This movie is all about a bully and a fight after school. The bully has Brass Knuckles. That move gave me a facination with Brass Knuckles and I had to buy some. They are illegal tho.

Friday (With Ice Cube)
Even white boys love this movie. Warp sure loved it. I love gangsta movies being from Southern California. This movie was probably my favorite for the summer out of all the movies. It is just so funny. I think this movie will probably appeal to all audiences (Young audiences, grandma won't love this one), you don't gotta be a brotha to enjoy this one. I bought both the movie and the sound track to this, which I also love. I also love quoting this movie for no reason all the time :) We watch this one all the time.

Maximum Overdrive (With Emilio Estavez)
Almost all Emilio's movies are great. This movie is about a bunch of machines that go crazy and kill everyone. It's by Stephen King. Man I LOVE this movie. I first saw it on WTBS. The music is by AC/DC. I mean how can you go wrong? A movie about a bunch of machines killing everyone, music playing by AC/DC and Stephen King. This is must see, must own. I love the Sound Track, AC/DC: who made who. I watch this movie at least once a month. I still laugh when the Soda machine kills the Little League team and the Ice Cream truck runs over little kids.

Total Recall (Arnold Something :)
Man this was the second R movie I saw in the theater. It was pretty shocking the first time I saw it. I wasn't quite used to such violence. It was also kinda confusing at first. But I came outta the theater going YEAH YEAH YEAH. I bought this movie of course as the first movie I ever bought. I watch this movie all the time. My quote in my High School Year books was "Kinda makes me wish I had 3 hands." Most of the teachers of course didn't get it, but the students who saw the movie sure did :) Was he really in the Machine or wasn't he. I've discussed this in great detail with many people but even now I'm not sure. They would make you think he wasn't but there is evidence for both sides. Hmmm a Total Recall Issues page??? :) For the memory of a life time, recall recall recall....

Red Dawn(1984)
Charlie Sheen, Patrick Swazee(don't let that fag stop you from watching it) C. Thomas Howell, Lea Thompson, Jennifer Grey. The idea is Soviets come and invade the US, and a bunch of high school kids fight them. The description sounds kinda corney now for sure, but during the 80s this was serious stuff. I know I sat there thinking about what if Russia Invaded. Warp watched this for the first time and although he did enjoy it he also felt it was corny. Yeah I've heard that from others too, but I think it's not so corny that it's not a great movie. I mean yeah it kinda strikes me funny that Russians would start shooting High Schoolers, but come on this was the cold war. We thought Russians were all bad guys :) Back then it wasn't hard to imagine the russians doing this. This movie stirs up a big feeling of American Pride. I almost bust a tear at the end of the movie each time. (See Expect Nothing! has a little heart) I had to buy this one.

Massacre at Central High(1976)
This has to be one of my all time favorites. And virtually no one knows about this movie except me. I found it on WTBS (known for crappy movies or crappy good movies :) at like 4 am one night. I had to record it. The idea is a student starts killing everyone in the high school. This movie sucks, but it sucks so bad that it's funny and great. I laugh through the whole thing, although I'm sure that wasn't the plan for the movie. haha. You will not find this movie anywhere. I couldn't order it at the Movie Stores. You NEVER find it an any video store. Let this be your quest, to somehow find this movie and watch it. Cuz it ROCKS. The student who dies diving into the empty pool? I mean how could you not be laughing your arse off. If anyone ever finds this at any store, I want to buy it. I am pretty sure that this is the second in a series too, they kept referring to stuff that didn't happen but seemed to have already happened. This very very very low budget movie, I'm sure me and my friends coulda made it. haha. I would love to devote a whole page talking about every little detail of the movie like Star Wars but no one but me and my friends (I forced them) have seen it.

Heathers.(1989)
Christian Slater, Shannon Doherty(Don't listen to the media she rocks! :), and that Wionninana Rider hoe. I hate her but oh well. Man it's almost as if the creator of this movie saw Massacre at Central high because the idea for the movie is almost exact. High School students who go crazy and start killing everyone. This movie is pretty funny too. I had to buy this one also. People dying everywhere. It was really funny when those 2 guys were killed and they turned it into a gay lover suicide pact. (Mineral Water, of course it was so obvious) Great movie, yet another movie probably designed to be scary but it was pretty damn funny. Must own must see.

Mad Max Trilogy
Man these has to be my all time favorite collection of movies. These were the first movies I ever rented and of course I bought them. So much of my life is affected by these movies. I got them all pretty much memorized. What Star Wars is to most other geeks, these movies are to me. Mel Gibson rocks. I love driving, and this is my kinda movie.

Mad Max
This movie is really really strange the first time you see it. It was shot in Australia and the language is kinda rough. The movie is also kinda low budget it seems. It's probably a Cultural deal. My favorite English teacher (who is a big Mel Fan) said she made here husband leave the movie the first time because it was so weird. Man after the second or third time, I realized I LOVED this movie. I still love yelling "I'm the Night Rider, I'm the rocker, I'm the Roller, I'm the out of controller, laying down the rubber road, straight to freedom!!" out the window as I drive 110 miles an hour. haha. I even wrote down much of the lyrics and memorized them, pretty geekly eh? :) Someday I'm going to have a car like Max's.

The Road Warrior
Many say this was the best of the series. I think I like the first better. I go 1, 2, 3 for order of preference. I really liked this one, not much to say about it. It looks pretty much perfect to me, I have no complaints.

Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome
Not many people seem to like this one. I loved it too. I mean it had so many cool quotes. "Two men enter, one man Leave!" "Master Blasta" "Who run Barter town?" "Bust a deal, spin the wheel" I think maybe people were turned off by Tina Turner. This movie was also kinda different. It wasn't the Road Wars we were used to although it did have some of those. It was kinda too strange for most people I think. I still loved it.
