Movies and TV Older Movies That Are Forgotten - Page 2

Hate to say, in another thread about Peaky Blinders, Blacklist thread, both of which are a great series, but I get tired after a few views. Thus I needed a break.

So I surfed Netflix and found "Awakenings". One of the better Robin Williams obscure films. Not a fan of Robert De Niro, but a good flick from 1992.

I watched it a long time ago. Glad I found it again. I like historical films and a feel good or bad story.

Recommended.

What other hidden gems are out there...

We all have our preferences. This is a generic, not niche classic ala Rocky Horror Picture Show nor Monty Pythons stuff nor Casablanca.

I ordered her an Over the Top Hawk Hauling tshirt today with the eagle emblem on it :-)

In all seriousness, the Police Academy 1-3 movies have held up well. I'm clearly biased but watched recently and was loving them the entire time and I fucking hate nostalgia

Really fun and yeah, the cast was star studded. Fucking Chris Pine and Jason Bateman before they were stars lol

Also, yes to Alicia Keys. Those thigh high boots and that shitty wig suited her.

Where are we at with Real Genious (CP version)?

It was like Revenge of the Nerds meets The Goonies with non-bloated Val Kilmer

Scored down for lack of titties for the era imho

Conan the Destroyer - its not nearly as gritty as Conan the Barbarian.
But it is more D&D-ish than the D&D movie that came out a coule years ago.

I did love the D&D movie that came out a couple years ago though.....

Gutter Boy and Skank killed me in this movie. :-)

I watched it a hundred times, at least. HBO and Cinemax ran it constantly.

Pre-insane Randy Quaid, Charlie Sheen, sweltering hot Sherilyn Fenn, crazy Clint Howard, etc.

Movie kicks a little ass.

A somewhat obscure Sheen movie that kicks a megaton of ass is Beyond the Law. I ****ing love that movie.

Sheen goes all-in. Watch this movie sometime. It's worth it.
