Upsetting as it may sound to you, speaking for me as a long time fan of the movies, it’s time to put Max to rest. He’s been out in the wasteland for how long now? He’s old,tired, dirty, not living his best life, it’s time to hang em’ up, & let him die. The magic of movies is to find a way to keep people young indefinitely no matter how many years go by. Max, Bond, (insert your choice here), etc, but it shouldn’t be that way I think. Time to let him die in a future MM movie & put his character to rest. We know where he came from, we know where he’s been, but face it, he’s not going anywhere, there is no future in that world. It’s the only other arc that he has now. Do the right thing & retire him with grace.
You’re mad! I’ve liked her ever since her first movie “The Witch” which she was great in & quite attractive I might add. Let me ask you something, you didn’t find her attractive in “Last Nigh in SoHo?” Something’s wrong with you dude.
You know, you’re 100% right! THAT’S where I read it & had that idea for most of my life. FMOFL was my bible as a monster loving child back then. When you look back at it, you can see how it was actually a crappy magazine with its black & white monochrome type & the feel of the pages. But nothing made me happier back then.
What I do remember is that this had some tie ins with “Knots Landing” as in Howard Duff’s character was supposedly the father or step father of William Devane’s character on Knots who played Greg Sumner. Exactly how else it ties in I do not know.
Maybe you had trouble reading what i had posted but they already had their fight & an agreement of sorts was reached. Zilla knows what Kong is all about, especially since he helped him in his fight with MechaG. Again, why the “You must die!” Tude?
Btw smart guy, the name of the movie ISN’T Godzilla vs. Kong. There’s a whole thread about the title here. People are interpreting it as “Godzilla X= AND Kong”
If you liked it so much then at least call it by its proper name. “Children of Dune”. Yes I liked it too.
Streisand was never in “The Gauntlet”. Clint’s main squeeze at the time Sondra Locke is the woman you’re thinking of. Trust me I couldn’t picture her in that movie. The movie that Barbra WAS considered for was “Sudden Impact” but that fell through & again……Locke.
Ah I see. That was part of the confusion. You assumed either I was in Europe as well or the rest of the world has this rating guideline? I’m American & our rating system is a little different. We have “R” for “restricted”. No one under 18 allowed WITHOUT parents. So we still can see “R” rated movies as this type as long as we’re with our parents or an adult(s).
Trust me, I’ve seen many things a child shouldn’t be taken to see “Exorcist anyone?” But hey I turned out ok. “Bug” rates low on the totem pole as to who should be allowed to see it. It’s like saying I shouldn’t have been allowed to go and see “Ben” or “Willard” or say for instance “Squirm” the only other gross insect movie of the 70’s. Seeing any of these movies is not that deep.
You want to see HUGE cockroaches? (even typing that makes me queasy.) Then go to Hawaii. Hear that they’re MASSIVE there. Everyone I know that’s ever been there mentioned that to me.
As a kid, I remember the bugs being identified as beetles. There was a synopsis of the movie that stated they were incinerary beetles or something like that. Not that I like those either, but I was able to watch the film without too much gagging, even as a child. One of the yuckiest parts is when Parmiter was asleep & they landed on his bare chest & then drew blood & he woke up from the pain. That I remember.
The part of him creating or breeding the bugs I totally forgot about. All I remembered was that they came up from the earth & I thought that was basically the storyline of the movie but now I read it’s a little more involved than I thought. Must have forgotten all that jazz about Parmiter cross breeding the original ones with the roaches.
Which makes one wonder what the hell he was thinking in doing that. With insects no less? Yeah that was going to get away from you for sure. What did he think was going to happen?
