80´s Draft: The ones that where left behind. - Page 6

post #251 of 267
Did somebody say RED HEAT?
post #252 of 267
I kinda like Red Heat - its certainly more fun than Raw Deal - but its still not vintage Arnie.
post #253 of 267
RED HEAT is the Arnold film I wish I loved more. All the elements are there. Arnold, Walter Hill, Ed O'Ross, and James Horner once again recycling his 48 HOURS score.

But in the end it just doesn't do much that wasn't done better in so many other films in the decade. I naturally just always blame Belushi, though I don't know if anybody else would have made the film that much better.

You know how I enjoy RED HEAT, but it's all about Walter Hill for me. The guy just knows how to push my buttons.
post #255 of 267
Again, I don't think it's awful by any means. Just unspectacular. Especially considering for Hill that it was sandwiched right in between EXTREME PREJUDICE and JOHNNY HANDSOME.
post #256 of 267
Yeah, but it doesn't feel like Walter Hill. Plays like a knock-off (especially following up Extreme Prejudice.
A damn shane cuz his directing of Schwarzenegger shoulda been up there with the Milius & Cameron collaborations. (Only thing that might've jazzed it up, is maybe Nolte repeating his Cates character instead of Jim Belushi. Just spit-ballin')

Phantasm II
post #258 of 267
We're all basically in agreement on Red Heat. I probably like it more than you guys, but I'm not trying to put it in the same league as Prejudice or Johnny Handsome, or The Driver or Southern Comfort... You get the idea.

I should have drafted Crossroads.

EDIT: The hell? How'd I do that?

Some fuel for your fire...

Way late now but I wanted to mention FUCK EVERYBODY for not picking Thunderdome so that I could be the first to say. Can't we please just get beyond Thunderdome already?
Thank you MST3K

Damn you all for not picking these 5:

1. Bachelor Party
2. Back To School
3. Johnny Dangerously
4. Summer School
5. Zapped!

Plus: a They're Playing With Fire/Private Lessons/My Tutor triple feature with a Private School kicker

I wish I had been around to see this draft going on...I would have had a hard time restricting myself to 5.
post #263 of 267
You can have 'em.

Except Bachelor Party. I need that.
post #264 of 267
Oh, and add Doctor Detroit to the list.
post #265 of 267
Why?
post #266 of 267
I'm kind of disappointed nobody drafted Strange Brew.

Dammit, there's another one.

And Doctor Detroit could also go in the Action Heroes draft. 'Cause he's a badass. Yeah, I said it.
