Batman was released in 89, so it counts. TMNT was made in 89, so IMHO that counts too.

How can you forget Masters of the Universe?

Isn't that the same guy played Drago in Rocky 4?

The Great Land of Small!!!!

If anyone likes movies like Chronicles of Narnia, Wizard Of Oz & The Neverendeing Story this also has an icredible wonderful and unforgettable a very magical land its a great movie and stars the awesome Micheal J. Anderson from HBO's Carnivale. He plays a leperchaun named Fritz. He's such a good actor. It was amazing to later see him on Carnivale. BTW it's a Canadian made movie I saw it because my older cousin worked on the set and sent me the movie. If you haven't seen it you defintly should or if you can't find get someone in Canada to get it for you .

1) I didn't forget it

(look at my list again)

2) Yes, it's the same guy, Dolph Lundgren, who also played the original Punisher (we're NOT arguing about that movie here).

Bowser_Koopa: No, he's talking about the live-action 1987 version, starring Dolph Lundgren (which I already mentioned), Courtney Cox, and Robert Duncan McNeil (who also played Tom Paris on "Star Trek: Voyager").

*Bowser_Koopa* · 11-06-2003, 04:42 PM

i was also talking about the live action vertion

*Voltron* · 11-06-2003, 05:05 PM

The Never Ending Story is the most blatant example of false advertisement in history.

~~Leo656~~ · 11-06-2003, 05:11 PM

I could care less about the reviews, Masters of the Universe was a Perfectly Acceptable Movie. Not great. Not Oscar-worthy. But a perfectly acceptable sci-fi flick with some decent battle scenes and great acting from Frank Langella as Skeletor. Sure, the music and Skeletor's guards were all very heavily riffed from Star Wars. Yes, they spent more time on Earth than Eternia. And sure, Dolph Lundren's He-Man sounded like he had a severe sinus infection. Who cares? At least we got a decent Skeletor, a hot chick playing Teela, and Courtney Cox before she got all anorexic. Oh, and the guy that played Principal Strickland in Back to the Future. Can't forget him.

Have to agree with the MotU. One of my favorite films as a kid, and I like it today too. It's funny since I find both new and old MotU cartoons boring.

*Bowser_Koopa* · 11-06-2003, 08:07 PM

the new cartoon is the old cartoon with a decent animation, and design, they even have the "moral crap" at the end of every episode

Probably because it isn't never ending.
