Slapping hysterical women. Always get a good chuckle out of that because how silly and inappropriate it is. Also head explosions.

I have movie ticket stubs dating back to the mid/late 90s. The only unfortunate ones are those that are just the receipt paper tickets, which only have a faint ink imprint remaining (if that).
But it is really fun to have. I keep them with my concert tickets.

I loved it. Such a good movie. Good characters, good plotting, good editing. It was thrilling and entertaining.

I recently rewatched the Rocky films for the first time since I was a kid. The boxing choreography is hilarious. It makes it look like boxing is a sport where they just take turns punching each other in the face and the concept of defense doesn't exist.

Reply to What are some weird movie age ratings, like films that don’t deserve this very mature age rating or something like that? by My_cat_is_sus
Ratings in US are strange and UK in some ways is a lot more strict (I’ve come to learn). For example, Titanic has a scene of very obvious nudity and is only PG-13, but there have been films like Halloween (2018) where there’s just a couple of frames of it. Maybe 3 moments where there’s I guess a “decent” amount of blood and it’s rated R. I suppose censors look at the “context” I honestly have no clue because I’m just as confused sometimes. Just like Paranormal Activity is rated R but it’s only because the F word is said a small handful of times along with some minor PG-13 cussing.

Tim Burton: Pee-Wee's Big Adventure, Beetlejuice, Batman, Edward Scissorhands, Batman Returns, Ed Wood. That is a solid-ass run.

The Mummy is so under appreciated! They really don't make movies like it anymore.

Art needs to inspire only good feelings is the most reductive and basic take I've seen on here for a while. And that's saying something

oh my gosh I'm the worst at recommendations because I love everything even if it's not good but maybe try asking in r/horror because the people over there know so much!!!

Reply to comment by PDV87 in The LOTR The Return of the King is a great film but the confrontation with the Ghost Army has always puzzled me. by verc1ngetor1x
It's definitely a little anticlimactic and unsatisfying, but I think the way it makes sense is timing. The defenders didn't get to choose the timing, Mordor attacked, and they just had to hold out as long as they could. Every life given bought a little more time, which eventually meant Aragorn and his ghost buddies were still saving a city when they arrived instead of taking back a pile of rubble

John McTiernan had a great action streak at the end of the 80s: Predator, Die Hard and The Hunt for Red October
Richard Donner had a couple of good streaks: The Omen, Superman, Superman II and then later The Goonies, Lethal Weapon and Scrooged.

Times change, when you think that "Indiana Jones Raiders of the Lost Ark" earned only a PG rating when there are some very gory scenes at the end (enough to traumatize the child that I was in any case ) maybe the rating is more severe these days?

Reply to comment by 4a4a in Avatar 2 Ummm did I miss something? by Professional-Rip-519
There is no difference with the quality of writing of Aliens or Terminator and the Avatar films.
Seriously. Rewatch those beloved classics. Cameron was always about spectacle and concept. His dialogue and stories were never the appeal.

What Lies Beneath (2000) is a good one. Harrison Ford and Michelle Pfeiffer. More suspense than thriller.

Reply to comment by MinuteSolid8821 in Which movie has better 2 hour non-stop violence? John Wick 4 or Mad Max: Fury road? by MinuteSolid8821
The Night Comes For Us is another flick in the style of The Raid movies. You can find it on Netflix.

It was a hot minute before i was allowed to go over there again
