I really like this movie (lucky you). But only because of memories of getting into the chipping world and building sets
so good. a favorite of mine for sure.
i know a guy for whom nothing but trouble is literally in his top 5 of all time. i don't dislike it, but i'm not THAT big a fan.
forgot about 1st and 10. maybe i'm glad to have. my analog would be Dream On with brian benben and wendy malick. loved it SO much as a kid. haven't seen even a clip of it in years, but there were titties, so 10 year old me (or whatever age) loved it.

OMG I haven't even thought about this one in 20 years - I LOVED this show when I was 12. I certainly haven't seen any since then, but I remember enough to know now that it was awful.
Fletch was (is?) a classic. But, I haven't seen it in...decades...and my guess is that it suffers from the unforgivable curse of the 80s: a terrible soundtrack. Lots of synth and plenty of sax.
First "Rocky" is almost all character development. It was probably a bit too much at the time but there is ZERO time for that in Hollywood anymore.
Ah, the epic "Axel F". Jam on...jam on...
Something about the lady love interest... She was still into him despite the "flight suit".
No, I did not mean the holy trilogy!
(I know, off topic).....Movies I can't get sick of, but should be:
Suicide Kings
Falling Down (if you liked this, see god bless america)
Mission to Mars (not sure why)
Boiler Room
Wall Street
Basketball Diaries
Close encounters of the third kind
Neverending story
Army of darkness
Total Recall (original)
True Romance (especially the scene with hopper and walken, CLASSIC.)
nearly every tarantino flick
cannibal the musical
Others I would say I have lost interest in:
Heathers
Repo Man (original with Emilio).....still a classic though
Men at work (literally garbage!)
The secret of my success (lol)
Blue Velvet (i know, blasphemy....don't you f*cking look at me!!)
The River's edge
Twins
13 days
More to come I am sure, my brain is farting

Funny that you mention this one. For some reason I remember really liking this when I was young and then when I rewatched maybe 5 years ago or so, it was AWFUL.

Shit you have a couple of my favorites on there. Like all time favorite in the form of Brazil, a film I really love - District 9 - and one I think is a lot of fun - Mars Attacks. I also like Pet Semetary a good bit. I seem to remember rewatching Blair Witch at some point and still liking it.
But I have to say I agree re: the Matrix, though I'd go further and include the original.

Bzzzzt! Wrong. With all due respect to my esteemed Tri-stater, the original Matrix is a great movie, great story and had some incredibly inventive cinematography and special effects. The others were, in fact, absolute rubbish, but the first was astounding.
Yeah, still love the first flick. The second was a confusing mess but had some parts that were watchable. The third one............ick

If Chins Could Kill was excellent. That is one I have been meaning to give another read...
Over the top. I remember as a kid I wanted my own big rig after watching that movie so I could do side pull ups on the chrome bumper to strengthen my arm wrestling arm. I finally realized it's so campy and cheesy that the title is not just a clever name.

Rocky Horror Picture Show. Loved it when I saw it in the theater (midnight show, of course) with all the accompanying costumes, props, dancing and audience participation. Couldn't get enough; must have seen it a dozen times. Watched it on cable a few years later - just kept thinking - this is really bad. I love Tim Curry, and there are still moments of the film that might be classic as just a stand alone clip (Meat Loaf's scene for instance), but as a whole - I think it kinda sucks.
i had this movie ruined for me when i was young. the first porn movie i saw was the Rocky Porno Video Show. it was pretty horrible (i looked up a clip online a couple years ago just to see if i was remembering it right) and not in a good way. seeing that before seeing the original didn't really allow me to get a good objective take on the actual movie.
