Been to long for this thread and I watch too many videos about film to not post here.

so Remar got busted for blow? bet he regrets that lol

the most amazing thing about both Alien and Aliens is that 40 some odd years later the special effects, costumes, makeup and sets all remain absolutely stellar and do not show their age! maybe just a tiny bit in some of the wide external shots on LV426... but otherwise the effects are every bit as good if not better as any modern day CGI animation. it's really incredible. those movies will still be as good in another 50 years.

CGI doesn’t exist to make movies better.

Condolences.

I hadn't seen this about the first Gladiator movie. With the release of Gladiator 2 last weekend, this seems to have good timing. I am intrigued to see where he goes with this chapter as this is part 1 of at least 2 or more.

Apocalypse Now…well, this is the climax scene but a lot going on visually. I know folks love to hate on The Doors, but The End was the perfect song for the movie and Coppola used it perfectly.

I just pictured the part where he pops out of the water to ‘Roadhouse Blues’ instead of ‘The End’ and literally laughed out loud…

He dropped the next video

Movies that catch you by sound always get me. 
 

I rewatched a lot of sicario because of the sound. 
 

‘ The Beast ‘ plays a few times in the movie and each time it gets me hooked. 
 

Johann Johansson -RIP-  killed it.
