Great older movies you really like that NEVER get replayed on TV
I really wish that TV stations expanded their horizons and played movies we haven't seen in years or cult classics that deserve a shot.

So many of the same shit over and over and over and over. Worse is the stupid remakes that suck balls or worse yet the horrible prequels/sequels.

I'll start with two:

One on One
starred: Robby Benson, Annette O Toole and GD Spradlin.
Plot: High School All Star BB players goes to college and is not so special anymore

Divorcing Jack
only known actor/actress is Rachel Griffiths
Divorcing Jack is a 1998 satirical black comedy. The plot is set around the Northern Irish reporter Dan Starkey who gets entangled in a web of political intrigue and Irish sectarian violence, at the same time as Northern Ireland is set to elect a new Prime Minister. Writer Colin Bateman adapted his own 1995 book as the screenplay.

I would also love to see "The White Shadow", "James at 15" and "Family" television series replayed from start to finish.

The most glaring segment is the quality TV shows that aren't syndicated, streamed or sold on media [DVD, etc], . . . or haven't been until recently, because of a failure to secure music rights.

WKRP, Wonder Years, Miami Vice, Moonlighting, Northern Exposure.

I saw One on One in the theater when it first came out, by myself (I was 11). A couple of years ago I went looking for it to watch it again and found it streaming somewhere, watched it with my wife because I thought she'd enjoy it.

Couple of other movies from that time period that you don't see much anymore: Foolin' Around, with Gary Busey and Annette O'Toole (again) (and Seals and Crofts songs, again); Fast Break, with Gabe "Mr. Kotter" Kaplan; and one that I'm particularly fond of: Big Wednesday, John Milius' surfing epic with Gary Busey (again!), William Katt and Jan-Michael Vincent.

I watched the first Porky's a few weeks back, actually.

In truth, it was pretty bad all around. Teen boys perving on the girls' shower room, minors trying to hook up with prostitutes, racism, underage drinking (not that a big a deal, but still..), drinking and driving, abusive fathers, violence, corrupt police, etc.

You probably wouldn't like Hollywood Knights, either.

Porky's brings back fond memories. Saw it when I was in high school, sitting in the balcony on my first date with the prettiest girl I ever dated. God she was gorgeous. The balcony usher was in my circle of friends, but we didn't like each other. He just glared daggers at me when we passed him. Actually didn't pay much attention to the movie.... And later that night I paid my first visit to third base.

One of the great nights of my life. Porky's will always get an eternal pass.

Sounds like a fond memory for you lol but I was talking about Porky's in terms of what the other dude said, how it wouldn't fly in today's world.

It's actually a really funny movie. I watched it once when I was younger and it left an impression on me. I saw it on Amazon a while back and decided to give it another go.

I really enjoyed the first one. The sequels, as I recall, were pretty bad.

If you've never seen Hollywood Knights, you should check it out. Another irreverent teen mischief movie from that time period (1980, IIRC) that would never fly today. Two problems with it - first, Robert Wuhl looks like he's in his mid 30s playing a high school student, and all the scenes with Tony Danza and Michelle Pfeiffer, which absolutely bring the movie to a grinding halt. But other than that, it's hilarious.

Brazil

In a dystopian, polluted, hyper-consumerist, overbearing bureaucratic totalitarian future somewhere in the 20th century, Sam Lowry is a low-level government employee who frequently dreams of himself as a winged warrior saving a damsel in distress. One day, shortly before Christmas, a fly becomes jammed in a teleprinter, which misprints a copy of an arrest warrant it was receiving. This leads to the arrest and death during interrogation of cobbler Archibald Buttle instead of renegade heating engineer and suspected terrorist Archibald Tuttle.

William Hurt's recent passing made me think about Altered States. There's another great movie that has kind of faded into history. It had some great special effects that would still hold up well today, as well as some very well done body altering scenes that, while not nearly as extensive, predate the transformation scene from American Werewolf in London.

Serpent and the Rainbow is another good one.

Decker pretty much did the same thing to Rachel in Blade Runner. Even as a kid that scene kind of disturbed me.

Apparently she was cool with it, though.
