It’s a near perfect movie to me. The underwater scene and the place crash scene are fantastic. I love it so muchFarmer John wrote:Imagine the utopia we would be living in today if everyone in America did this last nightE.H. Ruddock wrote:I turned off the debate and started watching Sisu.

I saw Jaws in the theater this weekend. It was sick.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Re: Post Random Movie-Related Thoughts You Have
While im recording a podcast about Brian DePalma i cant help to think about how i adore his work as a kid, and how much of a footnote he became with time.
I havent seen his last two movies and the last movie i enjoyed from him was Mission To Mars, which is, lets say, uneven at best.

He was very stylish and I still like his American gialli, but overall there just wasn’t much substance there.VinylGuy wrote:While im recording a podcast about Brian DePalma i cant help to think about how i adore his work as a kid, and how much of a footnote he became with time.

Re: Post Random Movie-Related Thoughts You Have
Also kind of funny that the last semi good movies from both De Palma and John Carpenter involved Mars and were made around the same time
