DrunkenMasterMoviePoster.jpg


That's poster for "Drunken Master" from 1978 with Jackie Chan in top billing.

Greetin' all. Been reading some of the excellent stuffs on Hype board for a while. For me, my most formative cinema going experience happened during the 1970s especially with Hong Kong Kung Fu wave. Drunken Master also happened to be in the same year as Superman TM which I also saw. It was a double bill but my memory failed me as to the other film that accompanied "Drunken Master". The only reason that I'm remembering this particular film is because I had a vivid dream that night playing the Jackie Chan character and the weird bit being my character was fighting a lion like Hercule against a fiery sunset background. :yay:

How many of you ever went to cinema to see a "double bill" feature? I believe that it stopped around mid 1980s and from then on cinema going experience was not the same for me.

Incidentally, one of the greatest divisive Siskel & Ebert reviews was for Cop and a Half. And if I recall correctly, during their Broken Arrow review a couple years later, Ebert gets Siskel to turn his thumb down, Siskel asks Ebert to relent and say that Cop and a Half WASN'T a good movie, and Ebert refuses.

They put the STORYTELLER shows out on DVD a few years ago. It's a neat show...a combination of his makeup/muppetlike appliances and other special effects tricks. John Hurt is the "Storyteller" and it's full of various guest stars.
john hurt is one of my favorites. i used to love that show. "a story short" is my favorite episode, it is about the storyteller himself, so that means more hurt.


oh and how about some john carpenter, this was my first carpenter movie, then i discovered the others, you know the ones.

Holy ****...I had that pet monster. His name was Brutus and he sat on my toy box...
 
I used to watch this once a year on TV.

TROG. It was a caveman found somewhere and brought to life. He became friends with a femal scientist (Joan Crawford) who becomes his guardian, sort of. Of course everything goes wrong and the caveman is chased as a criminal or something like that.

I loved the mvoie. To my surprise I found that it was never very well regarded amongst reviewers.
