Movies lately are all about anti-heroes, moral ambiguity, and fallen heroes. I need some really great films to watch where the good guys are good, the bad guys are bad, and aren't cluttered with political messaging. I can only watch LOTR, Patton, and Wrath of Khan so many times.

Untouchables was pretty good except for all the historical inaccuracies. . .

You really should have a surround sound system for it, if only for the train station scene. . .

^Kilroy^ Side note, movies made before 2010 usually aren't too bad as far as lefty propaganda. Personally I watch alot of TCM Turner Classic Movies. There are a million great older movies I bet you haven't seen yet either. Happy hunting & lets keep winning!๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ MAGA 2020 ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ KAG 2020 ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

I worked for about 15 years as a projectionist (IATSE Local 384) 1987-2002 and there are soooo many good old movies! And there is SOOOOO MUCH CRAP!!!!!

I really liked the Eddie Murphy movies from the 80s- Beverly Hills Cop II, The Golden Child, COMINT To America, they are all worth adding to the list, too.

LasVegas NV IATSE and Secaucus NJ IATSE ainโ€™t exactly equivalent. . .

Not the least of which LVNV is EXTREMELY stagehand-heavy. . .๐Ÿ˜†
