    Even Spielberg himself probably forgets that he made Always lol
     
    The Abyss did bomb at the box office back in 89. It's funny that in the late 80s a James Cameron science fiction about water was a box office failure while a DC superhero movie starring Michael Keaton as Batman and an Indiana Jones movie where he fights nazis were breaking records. A little more than three decades later and the exact opposite of that happened

    Just like Batman, The Last Crusade, Ghostbusters 2, Lethal Weapon 2 and, by the end of the year, The Little Mermaid and Back to the Future Part 2.
     
    It must've been a crazy year for movie nerds! Probably the most packed full of blockbusters since Jaws and Star Wars invented the concept.

    I loved Spacey's Luthor and I REALLY loved Ottman's theme for him.
     
    March of the Villains isn't that far off of The Imperial March. It's just got something that makes it kind of goofy. But parts of it (and some of it's statements) are really rather menacing.

    Tallguy reacted to QuartalHarmony in Anyone here succumbed to 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray?   
    At least other countries have the option of watching the 4K Abyss.
     
    Its UK release has been cancelled due to the rat scene…

    I would point out that Smithers and Bond still drank the brandy and that M thought there was nothing wrong with it.

    I enjoyed Skyfall and SPECTRE well enough. It's been more a timing thing that I haven't seen NttD. And I will watch anything in the Craig or Brosnan era (including - barely - Die Another Day) before I watch A View to a Kill again.

    TBF there are better examples to pick from Ant-Man. I'm sure MODOK looked EXACTLY as stupid as they wanted him to.

    There are a lot of terrible Bond movies that have fewer redeeming features than No Time to Die… and I’m quite confident I’d prefer to rewatch any of them before watching this AI trash.

    Tallguy got a reaction from enderdrag64 in Return of the Jedi at 40   
    I always thought the same thing until I got the 1997 set and I realized that it isn't another droid motif, it's actually a variation on Jabba's theme.

    If that's the case - and it does sound vaguely like some of Jabba's music to my ears - it would be a classic Ahnung: you hear the theme in embryo before you notice that its there...

    I'm listening to this magnificent score again now. I just wonder why Williams dropped the Droid motif from Empire. He composed a new idea (although I don't think it's repeated anywhere else in the ROTJ score) first presented when we see C-3P0 & R2D2 journeying towards Jabba's Palace at the beginning of the Movie. Possibly just another example of Williams' inexhaustible invention with the desire not to repeat himself. The Droid Motif from Episode V is one of my favourite lesser themes from the orginal Star Wars trilogy.
