PaddockLad 16991 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Penny Oliphant was a right cock hound, too.

PaddockLad 16991 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Most realistic depiction of drug ever with the scene where they're getting stoned in the library Not round our way.

NJS 4355 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I always thought the brat pack was synonymous with John Hughes. Haven't checked the correlation tbf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1217 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I always thought the brat pack was synonymous with John Hughes. Haven't checked the correlation tbf. I think the Breakfast Club (which is fucking class you mongs) is the only brat pack film of his. Lost Boys and Gross Point Blank are in no conceivable way Brat Pack.

David Kelly 1217 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 http://www.imdb.com/list/ls050037025/ That's just a list that some IMDB user has put together. I could create one that includes The Godfather and ET but it certainly wouldn't be proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1217 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Ok DK am wanting your list on my desk before you leave work today Can't say I've watched many if I'm honest. Breakfast Club, The Outsiders, Pretty In Pink, Class and St Elmo's fire from what I've seen would seem to fit the bill (as well as ET and The Godfather of course). But a film John Cusack made about a decade later certainly can't count. I think there's also a confusion that any comedy film made around that time aimed at teenagers is Brat Pack. Cat Mags definition seems more accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just looked at gpb and thought it came out about 1990...turns out it was 97 Lost Boys is still in there for me though...I like the imdb theory that you can group together several films from the mid 80s with the same type of preppy middle class american actors and the films they made having a general theme of teenage angst/coming of age.

Kid Dynamite 6964 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Why aren't we talking about Goonies, Big Trouble in Little China, Flight of the Navigator, Beverly Hills Coo etc. Real 80s classics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Park Life 71 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 (edited) A Year of Violence 5.7/10 Flat, badly shot and little if no script arc. Very disengenous trailer beware. The Guest. Ingenious, funny and dark. 7.2/10 Edited March 24, 2015 by Park Life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 21760 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Whiplash - 9/10. Stylish, great acting, beautiful cinematography and editing. How Birdman got best picture ahead of it is beyond me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1217 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I enjoyed The Guest but I wasn't sure if it was supposed to be a pisstake or not. It seemed like it was just a little bit away from being in the same tone as Grosse Point Blank by the end after starting off as a much more serious thriller. The soundtrack was certainly excellent though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1217 Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 The Overnighters. Doc about a pastor trying to help out desperate blokes heading to North Dakota to work in the oil field by giving them (including a couple of registered sex offenders) shelter at his church. Pretty interesting although revelation at the end does somewhat change your perception of what went before it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tooner 243 Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 interstellar 2/10, three hours i can't get back. what's worse is i made the wife watch as well and she's now claimed i can't be trusted. could be a string of rom/com's in my future <sigh> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
