All the rocky films were pretty good but I like Rocky IV the best.

BATMAN BEGINS
SUPERMAN 2
STAR TREK 2
STAR TREK 3
STAR TREK 4
STAR TREK 5
STAR TREK 6

in other words; all the STAR TREK "original crew" movies MUCH better than STAR TREK: THE MOTION PICTURE (and most trekys agree with me!)

I actually love The Motion Picture.

Staying Alive

:::::runs and hides::::: I love the music from SNF much more (the Frank Stallone songs are all laughably bad in Staying Alive), but I guess there's just too much polyester for my liking in the movie that I never really cared for it. Staying Alive is entertaining to me because it sucks so bad. So technically, I admit SNF is a better movie, but I'd rather watch 80's trash than disco gold I suppose.

catlover79 · 11-18-2007, 01:00 AM

Speaking of Frank Stallone, I hear he has a funny cameo in Fred Claus. Has anyone here seen that movie yet?

disco is an era I prefer the audio to the visual. I admit Saturday Night Fever is a much better movie, but Staying Alive does the trick (Travolta has a niche in the "bad movie Hall of Fame") when I wanna watch a movie that's so unintentionally funny and bad. So I suppose this isn't the "better" than Travolta and Stallone were aiming for when they were making that movie.

I actually don't like "The Woman In You" too much, but I do really like "Someone Belonging To Someone". I also really like "I Love You Too Much". I do own the Staying Alive soundtrack because of those two songs.

catlover79 · 11-18-2007, 01:07 AM

I will say that SA is a MUCH better movie than Moment by Moment, Battlefield Earth and the Look Who's Talking sequels. I know that's not saying much, but hey...

Probably not, no.

Do you listen to the Frank Stallone songs, too, Mike??

Dean Winchester · 11-18-2007, 01:08 AM

Battlefield Earth also rocked!!!!..... for all the wrong reasons.

I still believe that movie would've been a success had it been marketed as a comedy instead of as a serious sci-fi picture
