my favorite films that i can remember right now: Seven, Apocalypse Now and Full Metal Jacket. i think i might have to also add Eyes Wide Shut because of all the scenes of kidman naked

Man! these are just a few that come to mind! LOL.
It was a coin toss between that and the Warriors both came out the same year . He was also good in The Principal with Jim Belushi . Also didn’t include Star Wars there’s just to many of them I just categorize that as best entity .Last edited by juggernaut666; 07-20-2023, 07:00 PM.

They had everything for a buck! kung fu movies on 42nd street, horror movies, the latest films. My fondest childhood memory EVER was, as a little boy during the Blackout in the seventies. New York was boiling! Power was coming back, we lived in East Harlem and it was going to be a while... so mom decides to take me to a double feature down in Times Square. Taxi Driver and The Farmer! Good ole mom! I was thrilled to see a real movie, there was air conditioning, and that movie (I forgot for my list!) "The Farmer" was an incredible movie. You cannot find it these days... I had nightmares for a week lol, but it was the best time I ever had with my mother on an outing.
Be that as it may, I'm glad someone had fun that day. LOLGhostofDempsey likes this.

For those who are unaware, the NYC blackout was in July of 1977 and parts of NYC were rocked by riots and looting. I was on the job about 5 years and assigned to the South Bronx. I spent that day and night with my fellow police officers battling rioters in the South Bronx and protecting fire fighters of the FDNY from being attacked while they tried to put out fires caused by the rioters.

I was 13
My parents and uncles had businesses in l.a. rampart area
Thought maybe we'd go there and guard the place and fight off looters
Nope
Never even went
They just hired armed security and barricaded the place off, looters just went on by
then I was hoping maybe thered be riots in our part of l.a.
San fernando Valley
Had my dads and uncles guns ready for anything
Not a damn thing happened
I just wanted to shoot a looter, at least one, just one
Never saw a damn looter aside from on TV
