Raiders of the Lost Ark. Man that movie is awesome. Before that I watched Hellboy and tonight I'm gonna watch The Temple of Doom and The Last Crusade.

Watched Jason and the Argonauts the other day, which has to be one of my favorite movies from my childhood. It was great to revisit it and I can see why Ray Harryhausen had fun doing the effects for it.

Later, I watched the 1963 version of The Raven, starring Vincent Price and Peter Lorre. I enjoyed it and my dad told me the next day, when he was a kid, he saw the movie when it first came out it theaters, so I'm sure he felt nostalgic watching the movie before we both went to bed.

Watched Return of the Evil Dead last night, which was the sequel to Tombs of the Blind Dead. I thought it was better than the first movie, but the ending was a bit of a letdown.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.

Man you just watch movies all day long. Where do you find all these old films?

Any decent video rental store and/or netflix, I would say. They're really not obscure movies for the most part.

*Revan* · 04-01-2008, 12:45 PM

I know they aren't obscure but none of the stores in my area have those oldies. Probably due to living in a town of 10,000

You're both wrong. For the most part, I record movies off of channels such as IFC, Turner Classic Movies, and Monsters HD onto my DVR and watch 'em later.

*tone-master21* · 04-03-2008, 03:32 PM

Last night I watched Ghost Rider.

*cowabunga14* · 04-04-2008, 08:22 PM

Watched Blood on Satan's Claw earlier, which was pretty good. The fact that had an all-English cast and was made under an English studio kinda reminded of the Hammer Horror stuff.

After that, I watched From Beyond and I thought it was awesome. The makeup effects were probably some of the best I've seen in a while.

Hamato Yoshi · 04-05-2008, 06:46 PM

Are YOU wasted, now?! Oh, MAN!

*Spitfire* · 04-06-2008, 01:16 AM

Last night I watched
Hellraiser, Made me want to see #2.
The Italian Job, Made Mini-Coopers look cool at least.
Escape From New York, John Carpenter's soundtracks suck.

And right now I'm watching The Warriors.

*cowabunga14* · 04-06-2008, 04:09 PM

Watched all six Star Wars movies with my buddies this past Saturday. All the movies were enjoyable and I've never done a Star Wars marathon myself, so it was a different experience.

But there are only three Star Wars movies...?

The last movie I saw was The Bucket List. I liked it, but I noticed that by the time I got back home I had already forgotten half of it, so take that as you will. Also, despite the title the movie does not contain any lolruses.

Actually, there really are six of them. The ones you probably are thinking of are prequels to the original three. They're called A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. I don't blame you for not knowing them, because you were probably too young and it might not have been big in the Netherlands, but I really do recommend you check them out. They complete the saga and are really good movies. (Not to mention a big part of american pop culture) You won't regret it.

Oh, so that's where all those 'I am your father' jokes come from!

LOL @ assumptions!

Anyways, I finally finally finally watched 3:10 to Yuma. I bought it the day it came out on dvd, but never got around to watching it. I thought it was pretty awesome, despite the fact that absolutely nothing makes sense in the last bit of the movie.
