Scarface is a piece of shyt. If 90s rappers hyped Sleepless in Seattle, dudes would love it. Scarface is one of the most overrated movies in history with one of the hammiest performances in history.

also, this screener season sucks the proberbial dikk. Let's be real, the movies that owned 2015 were all blockbusters.

Sergio Leone is definitely one of the greatest directors and all of his movies are excellent examples of amazing cinematography. He directly influenced so many genres and so many directors.

They also happen to be Westerns.

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly is where you want to start. After that move on to Once Upon a Time in the West. From there you'll want to watch the other two movies in the man with no name trilogy: A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More...the Good, Bad, Ugly is considered to be number 1.

Trust me when I tell you this. Spaghetti Westerns (named this because they are largely made by Italian writers/producers/directors and shot in Europe) are leaps and bounds over any American made western. I can't get into American Westerns. Tarantino's Hateful 8 might be one of the few I actually enjoy. (Django was a riff on Spaghetti Westerns, Hateful 8 is meant to be American).

Spaghetti Westerns is where the bad guys dressed in black and a million other western movie tropes were born. They took the John Wayne formula (which is what we think of when we think of Westerns) and improved on it. The theme song to the good bad and the ugly IS THE THEME SONG to westerns period.

Those stills look :ehh:, I'll give it a shot. Can I find them on Netflix/On Demand or do I have to download them?

damn, you lost.
Lord have mercy he took a big L. So much dope history he's missing out on and feels like Scarface is the pinnacle of the 80s
:dahell: I'm not dead, so what L did I take? You can only get that first time experience as a viewer once, so according to logic I'm going to enjoy the piffery just as much as yall did watching them the first time (given that they are as good as yall claim:childplease:). So if anything :umad: because I'm about to :eat:while yall can only reminisce on the meal like :mjcry:.

Star Wars saga
Indiana Jones trilogy
Die Hard
Blade Runner
ET
Aliens
Terminator
Back to the Future
Ferris Bueller's Day Off
Ghostbusters
The Killer
First Blood
Full Metal Jacket
Platoon

All off the top of the head :damn:

Edit: And the GOAT Cult film....The Running Man :wow:
Never been a fan of the newer Die Hards, not gonna bother with the :flabbynsick: one

The concept of Indiana Jones never really intrigued me. Caught one in the middle, watched for any 15 minutes and then hit the Seinfeld gif.

Star Wars I actually did watch all of them and thoroughly enjoyed them. The thing is I watched them in like 2000, so I wasn't even 10 yet. My imagination wouldn't allow the reality of shytty effects to ruin the movie, I was :krs: the whole way through. I can honestly say the originals is what made me a fan. However, going back to watch them now I'm like :francis: at the visuals.

E.T. :upsetfavre: saw that too as a kid. Loved it. Now take away the nostalgia factor and :camby:


Terminator :ehh:


Back To The Future :ahh: how could I forget. Timeless piffery. Them Marty McFlys :whew:


Ferris Bueller :patrice: think I was too young to appreciate it. Heard it was set in my city so I may give it another shot.


Ghostbusters :martin:



The rest I haven't seen, but Scarface is undeniably better than a few of those on the list that I have seen. nikkas hating on Scarface just wanna seem edgy going against the grain. Only thing worse than overrating shyt is underrating shyt just to be a snob.:leostare:

So because the new die hards are piss poor you won't give the ones that created the franchise a chance breh? Even tho they clearly had to be at least decent to create a franchise? There's a reason Bruce Willis was a star and still is somewhat of a star and it's because of the first die hard. So do yourself a favor and check it out. And there's nothing snobby about it I don't see how scarface is easily better than any of the flicks we mentioned

What @MartyMcFly said, you doing yourself a disservice for not going back and watch the original Die Hard. :merchant:

And Indiana Jones you have to catch it from the very beginning to really appreciate it.

I can understand not fukking with E.T. and Ghostbusters. That shyt can can an acquired taste.

As for Scarface being undeniably better. Nah...I respectfully disagree. But to each their own though so :manny:

Bruce Willis :scust: I just don't like the man. Surrogates was okay, but please, name another great movie he did aside from your supposed Die Hard. I really don't like his acting. Replace him in ANY role with Liam Neeson, Tom Hardy, hell even Jason Statham and the movie is instantly better in my opinion. I can name at least 20 better actors than lame ass Bruce Willis. Let's be reality brehs

Anyone who doesnt like Indiana Jones can eat a million dikks

Movies are pure fun to watch
:dwillhuh: That's not okay mane

Great choices but might be too much for newbie to western flicks. The pacing I mean. I'd recommend the new classics like Tombstone and Unforgiven. Bone Tomahawk is nice too.

Yea I forgot Looper and Pulp Fiction...still think his roles can be replaced for a better Performance though :manny:


Die Hard is on Demand though, I'll give it a go. All the Westerns on Demand are from like the 30s-50s though:pacspit:


I'll check Netflix later

The first three die hards, the sixth sense, unbreakable, pulp fiction, looper, lucky number slevin, last boy scout, fifth element, 12 monkeys. And no homie, bruce willis is john mcclane. Replace any of those three cats with him and die hard isn't what it became. This isn't a discussion about his greatness as an actor its about his greatness in that role. It's a role he built fro the ground up and he was the difference in die hard just being a run of the mil action flick vs what it became. So how about you check it out before you start throwing rocks
