6. Dead Ringers
7. Beetlejuice
8. Child's Play

been awhile since I've seen Serpent and Dead Ringers but i'd say my top2 are really separated from the rest of the movies. All but Serpent i've seen tons of times, fun.

What the fuck no never, remember what clip it was?

 

[rms]

Damn wish I remembered. Think he said it's the all time comedy movie .My dad showed it to me when I was young though and rewatched it recently

 

[CiG]

Dude I found it:



10 minute mark.

 

[rms]

hah i watched it. pretty sure him and norton go on about it for awhile on O&A...I think Cumia too

 

[CiG]

Probably part of that brutal 4 hour video of every time they discussed films haha.

 

[challenge_everything]

I count 10 lists... not a huge sample size to tally up...

 

[CiG]

The soft deadline I set is for the 16th of next month, but it can be pushed back as far as needed. Movies aren't like albums, you can't just bust out a bunch of movies while driving to or from work or play some movies while working out. So I'm going to be very flexible with this game.

@no country for old wainds is working on his list, hopefully @RadicalThrasher joins in too. Other than them, I'll tag a bunch of people once the soft deadline comes along and go from there.

 

[no country for old wainds]

i’m 100% gonna post a list, i’ve watched a buncha shit already. i’m not too fussed when you close it, just let me know a day or two in advance so i can finalise something.

i think cyanide christ said he was prob gonna post one too. i think this has already done a little better than expected though, double figures is what i was hoping we’d reach.

 

[CiG]

Anybody who needs time just tell me so and you'll get it, and yeah I'll give fair warning before the hard deadline.

 

[RadicalThrasher]

I'll make a list before the deadline, need to look through what was released in '88 to refresh my memory.

 

[CiG]

I'm actually looking forward to the final lists for this game, I plan to use them as a guide to checking out films I haven't seen. This whole game concept is basically just to service my need for film recommendations lol.

BTW Troma hosts all their movies on Youtube for free, so you can watch Rabid Grannies and Troma's War for free without having thievery on your conscience.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Might replace Rambo III with Nightmare on Elm Street 4. Rewatched Halloween 4 yesterday and yea that one's definitely not making my list. Still need to revisit Friday the 13th Part VII.

Mosley turns Charles Grodin over to Deniro(the bondsman) who cant get himself to send Grodin to prison so he lets him go. There ya go.

I already looked it up that day and read the synopsis/watched the trailer. But nice try you literal manchild faggot.

Only an actual retard would get this triggered because someone revealed that there's a murder scene in a serial killer film.
