Wrong threa...  I mean, I'm definitely not going to like it.

Maybe... Sarah Conner decided to enlist some scientist to change the sex of John Conner to Jane Conner while he was an infant... Then the Terminators would be confused as they would be looking for a John not a Jane.  

OH, wait.... maybe after years of being chased John decided to have a sex change to evade them... perhaps.  ?

lol.

Seriously I can't see why or where there would be a reason to change the main characters to all female. Next thing you know someone will be re-releasing Fried Green Tomato with an all male elderly cast... Some shit just don't work.

In the center of Seoul, Korea, Yi Sun-sin. There is a statue of the general.
He is a great general who defeated the Japanese invasion and defended Korea.
He developed the world's first iron-made ship. It is a turtle ship.
Korea's top box office is a film about his biography... Approximately 20 million Koreans saw this movie in the movie theater
I think I have seen more than 100 million people through the internet and various media
A 100-won Korean coin has his face.
Many Koreans admire him.
When I was young, someone asked me, and the future dream was General Admiral Yi Sun-sin.
He was the great dovahkin of Korea, like Skyrim.

Goddamn but Lee Van Cleef was THE MAN! One of the best faces ever. He could play such an implacably cold villain. He would form that smile and it chilled your blood!

[vancleef]

Where Eagles Dare- one of the great "Watching Saturday Afternoon Movies with you Dad" films. Clint Eastwood, Richard Burton and the extremely lovely Ingrid Pitt!

I watched the Tv Series - The Expanse Season 1-3. (Sci-Fi) Amazon prime/Netflix

Well the first episodes are very boring and a bit weird, but at the Half of Season 1, the series get better and better. I can't wait for Season 4.

How did i miss this? My father loved westerns and I had to sit through most every one ever made but I can't remember this one..

 I would have liked this one.. lol  Maybe that was the reason I never got to see it when I was young lol

Look what I've found on YT...

For some reason watching this movie makes me wanna play Mount & Blade.

 

I HATED the theatrical cut! I remember leaving the theater in a "What the Fuck?" mood. A friend harangued me into watching the director's cut and suddenly the whole epic made sense. Now one of my favorite films.
That said, I am biased: I have always harbored a Man-Crush for the Knights Templar!

Here's one of my old favorites, have seen it a few times before all on TV. Never watched it in this format before, didn't even know it was on YT. Very good film, highly recommended.

Loved this one...especially for Sam Waterson's corny jokes.

The one he tells in the scene where he climbed the cliff is worth "meme"rizing...

I've always loved Jerry Goldsmiths score, Kay's Theme especially. Probably one of the reasons why this movie has stayed as a favorite of mine for a long time.

Vancleef stirred some interest in the old Hammer films so here's part one of a primer I found on Youtube.

 

[Kendo 2]

This is interesting...to me at least. 

 

[vancleef]

Well, then, allow me to retort:

And  if his portrayal of Dracula isn't bad-ass enough for you, Lee also served behind enemy lines in the SAS during WW2 and released a Heavy Metal album ( featuring him as lead singer...his mother was a noted Opera singer) in his 90s!

Stridulum (aka. The Visitor) 1979

An ancient intergalactic warrior arrives on Earth to put a stop to a demonic child's plot to reproduce Satan's next generation of evil.
 

Good cast, good music, weird movie. Check it out when you have some time to waste.

"An ancient intergalactic warrior arrives on Earth to put a stop to a demonic child's plot to reproduce Satan's next generation of evil. "

He needs to return and put a stop on terrible generation we are dealing with now!

Perhaps his failure back in '79 gave rise to the Millennials? Even the year makes sense.

This was a silly movie I watched in a theater back when I was a kid and after all this time I've finally managed to find what it was and the whole thing's on YT as well.

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082083/

Watched the whole thing once again and liked the jazzy parts of the soundtrack, and then I found out that they were composed by Gil Melle, and while searching for his music on YT, I found this soundtrack for the movie 'The Andromeda Strain' which sounded interesting, but I couldn't find the whole movie on YT, still bits of it seemed interesting... God, I LOVE discovering old stuff! Perhaps I should've been an archeologist or something!

Nah, I don't like watching horror movies, especially stupid ones and most, if not all, of them are. The reason why I was searching for Blood Beach was because of a particular scene in it where the beach monster bites off a guy's dick, which was kinda funny. I could never recall the name of the movie and there was no Internet back then, so I kept wondering what the hell it was.

Another stupid horror movie I watched in early 80's and then kept wondering what it was is The Dark (1979):

Apparently there are some who considers as a cult movie. Well, it was a weird movie but in a stupid way.

To me what made it memorable was the actress Cathy Lee Crosby.

Fair enough..

Also there is the following scene where some boys run up to the detectives and claim they found the dick,.. and toss them a hotdog. At least if my memory serves me correctly. I haven't really seen the entire movie since it was released on VHS. lol

What a bout children of the corn or The Shining? Yea or  no.

Never had any interest in seeing them, so no.

Wanna watch something cheesy? How about a scifi horror called The Green Slime from 1968?
