I enjoyed Resurrections a LOT more than Revolutions. I might even rank Resurrections slightly higher than Reloaded, though it’s hard to top the experience of seeing Reloaded for the first time in the theater.
If you missed it!!! The first five minutes of this is a short film that serves as the other live action sequel. Idk maybe it could be seen as a different model.
The one movie I remember watching as a child was Fist of the Northstar. My older brother said “hey do you want to watch this animated movie I rented” fully knowing well what he was getting me into. Pretty sure I haven’t watched a bloodier movie since then. My God so much blood and exploding heads.
Another movie that fucked me up as a kid. It was on cable all the time in the late 70s/early 80s.
I think Independence, MO got one of the first cable systems in the country. Seems like KC has always been a trial market for that stuff, like Google Fiber. We had cable before HBO existed, when it was Channel Z and Channel G, which I think were regional.
Cable was so new they hadn’t learned that maybe they shouldn’t play soft core porn at 3:30 when latch key kids like me were home from school all by themselves. I learned a TON of stuff. They didn’t play the raunchiest stuff in the afternoon, but they played stuff like Valentino, which was just wall to wall sex.
But my stepdad still let me stay up and watch the raunchiest stuff with him after my mom went to bed, like Jokes My Folks Never Told Me, and 2069 A Sex Odyssey. I was that kid on the bus who knew all the sex stuff before anyone else did. Gather round kids, lemme tell you what I learned on cable last night. Totally didn’t screw me up or make me mal-adjusted in any way.
The Expendables franchise is doing it right: if you want to substitute a number for a letter in the title, you gotta earn that by making a bunch of prequel movies. I’m looking at you, M三GAN, you can’t pull that move when you’re the first movie in a franchise.
Nonsense. 2 Fast 2 Furious is one of the GOAT movie titles.
If you want to feel super old, remember that the premise of the first Expendables movie was that all of your favorite action heroes were way too old to be doing action movies.
