Remember Revenge of the Nerds, where if you put on a Darth Vadar mask and give a good dicking under false pretenses, the sorority babes will swoon and dump the jock?

That said, I'm not going to condemn the movies or say that people shouldn't watch them. They're a product of their times, and they can still be good movies. But wow, I see some scenes differently now than I did back then.

As for shows themselves, I'm currently enjoying the fact that I found My Name is Earl and Malcolm in the Middle on Amazon. I'll let myself watch one episode of each on the weekends (okay, maybe two). Those shows are awesome.
I found Third Rock from the Sun a couple of years ago and binge-watched the series. I really enjoyed that show when it was on the air, but as I binge-watched it I could see a noticeable drop in creativity and quality the last couple of seasons. It was a good show, but also a good decision to cancel it.

Oh, I'm talking TV shows and not movies. I'll recalibrate.
I want to go find Kelly's Heroes. And Pleasantville. Maybe The Great Escape.

You know, I've NEVER seen Breaking Away, and it's one of those films where everyone whose taste I value has raved about and I've wanted to watch forever. It just never comes to mind when I'm in the mood for a movie and when it does come to mind I'm too busy to sit down for that long.
It might be the most highly acclaimed movie that I know I'd probably like that I've never seen. Some day. . . .

Firstborn 1984
Starring Peter Weller before he was Robocop. It also starred Christopher Collett from “ The Manhattan Project”, Terri Garr, and a young Corey Haim (I think it was his first film). They used to show it on HBO all the time but I haven’t seen it on tv in about 25 years. Weller really showed his acting chops in this one. |

Does anyone remember an old Charles Bronson movie called "From Noon Till Three"? I remember seeing it on TV when I was a teen and it really struck me because it was a western that wasn't really a western and had a couple of odd plot twists. I thought it was a made-for-TV movie, but it looks like maybe it was in theaters. There are a few reviews of it online that are very mixed. I'd be interested in seeing it again to see if 59 year old me would have a different impression of it than 13 year old me.
