Val Kilmer as Doc Holliday in Tombstone
Name a better acting performance. I **** dare you
I know I hold Tombstone in higher regard than most but still. It’s the perfect character

But man, yeah. It's a solid choice. Pacino in Godfather II as well.

I watched Joker this week, every bit as good as advertised. Very dark, heavy, very Mean Streets/Taxi Driver influenced.
Joaquin Phoenix was excellent. Scary really.

It’s so weird how post Scarface he completely changed his persona as an actor. I guess it was the actual coke, not just the prop stuff
He was really good in Dog Day Afternoon too. Not that I think he was a bad actor post Scarface (just watched Heat again tonight and I appreciated his performance more than I had before), just not as good

Oh and Ledger in Dark Knight is great too. As is Christophe Waltz in Basterds and Django

Family pooled together and rented the theater. $38 per family. What a great experience. The movie was big pop-corn and knew that’s what it was. The final plot line though, IMO, felt a bit shoe horned in. Still super cool looking big ass monster fights.

Watched it again last night on TV and yep, the 4k was spectacular. Seeing it earlier in the theater really made me appreciate the big screen experience. Followed that up last night with Godzilla and invasion of the astro monster and I now have no problem with a ridiculous storyline in any monster movie. It was awesome.

I have Godzilla vs. Mothra somewhere on VHS. I remember loving that one when I was a kid.

Me too, and I haven't even seen Tombstone.

I also saw it after everyone else, and really liked it. Todd Phillips is sort of underrated at creating a specific atmosphere.DigitalGypsy66 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 03, 2021 10:28 pm I watched Joker this week, every bit as good as advertised. Very dark, heavy, very Mean Streets/Taxi Driver influenced.

Even Old School and The Hangover have a little extra chili pepper with the cinematography.

I rewatched Unforgiven for the first time since I saw it in the theater. So great. So many great performances.
I had no idea that the same writer also wrote Blade Runner and 12 Monkeys.
I also miss Gene Hackman - he’s still alive, but retired in 2004 from acting. He’s 91; Clint will turn 91 later this year. Man.

it's a really cool movie. probably the best genre-subverting film. it definitely doesn't get enough praise

That's the only Beat Picture I've seen in a theater. I was only 11 when it came out and even then I knew how good it was.
