Born in the 80s crowd (previously known as the 30s thread)

There will always be remakes, live with it. They did them in the 70's , 80's , 90's and so on.

 

Yeah sometimes remakes like Gone in 60 seconds is a good thing. I watched the original and it was just boring.

Speaking of car movies, anyone remember "The Wraith"?

 

You are in for a world of hurt....

Sad but true

Should not have done that, I did it high as a kite, thank god. But man o man was that a shit story, at least in the 80's that was the best we could do.

 

My brother had the X rated version of Robocop on Laserdisc. Such a good movie for it's time. Red Forman is a good bad guy.

 

I have the Wraith on VHS and DVD!

Watched it 100's of times. So badass. That's probably the best car Chrysler ever built

 

and they will fuck that up!

they need new ideas. but they just have stupid people and say hey lets starts making remakes of old movies and lets fuck them up.

now i want to watch the goonies......

 

You are probably gonna hate Vanishing Point then.....

Wonder what your thoughts are on Bullit, The Great Escape, and The Magnificent 7....cant wait for them to remake those....

I wonder if the pay writers get has anything to do with this?

 

There is only one sequel rumor circulating around that I hope happens. I know George Carlin is dead but I still think a third Bill and Ted movie would be funny. It took me awhile to realize why the Water park being called Waterloo was funny.

 

I’d say it dose.

I’ll say i did not like the monster university as much as the 1st one.

 

X-rated version of Robocop? Do you mean unrated?

 

Back in the 80's wasnt it X-Rated?

 

Sounds like you are right.


The movie was originally given an X rating by the MPAA in 1987 due to its graphic violence, in sharp contrast to most other X-rated movies that received the rating due to strong sexual content. To appease the requirements of the ratings board, Verhoeven reduced blood and gore in the most violent scenes in the movie, including ED-209's shooting of Kinney in the boardroom, Boddicker's gang executing Murphy with shotguns, and the final battle with Boddicker (in which RoboCop stabs him in the neck with his neural spike and Boddicker's blood splatters onto RoboCop's chest). Verhoeven also added humorous commercials throughout the news broadcasts to lighten the mood and distract from the violent aspects of the movie (most of the commercials are satirical on various aspects of the American consumer culture, such as the commercial for the 6000 SUX sedan). After 11 original X ratings, the film was eventually given an R rating.[20] The original uncut version was included on the Criterion Collection laserdisc and DVD of the film (both out of print), the 2005 trilogy box set and the 2007 anniversary edition—the latter two were released by MGM and were unrated. The 2014 Blu Ray 4K master edition also features this unrated cut.

Regarding the omitted scenes, Verhoeven stated in the 2007 anniversary edition DVD that he had wanted the violence to be "over the top", in an almost comical fashion (the executive that is killed by ED-209, for example, and Bob Morton immediately asking "Somebody wanna call a goddamn paramedic?!", was meant as black comedy). Verhoeven also states that the tone of the violence was changed to a more upsetting tone due to the deletions requested by the MPAA, and that the deletions also remove footage of the extensive animatronic puppet of Murphy just before he is executed by Boddicker.

 

DUDE I SAW A TITTY

 

When we got a set top box with the rocker buttons, my horny ass would get it on Skinimax and rock the button a few times and get it stuck in between channels and the picture was 80% clear

One perfect boobie and one slightly screwy boobie was better than no boobies.

Then dad eneded up getting Skinimax and HBO and it was all Friday night boobies n more from there on out.

 

Then after watching the Emmanuelle movies






it was time for one of these:

 

Ok so I swear the guy would would scramble porn on channel 99 was helping teens wank it for years.

See when we'd watch it, every other day or so between 2am-2:20am you'd get about 2-3 minutes of fully unscrambled porn. Then it would go right back to waiting to see a half scrambled titty again.

I always thought there was a guy in a control room, just watching porn all night and he'd say "Ok kids, whip them out and tug-a-lug" then unscramble the porn for a few min. It was always on a good scene too. I'd remember paging my friends with 80085 and that was the code sign it was unscrambled.

If this was really a guy doing this, he is my hero. He could also be the reason so many men can't last more than 2-3 minutes.
