THE GOONIES was released 41 years ago today.
Director Richard Donner kept the full pirate ship hidden from the young cast until the day of filming, wanting their first reaction to One-Eyed Willy’s treasure ship to feel authentic.
Bloodsport (1988) Hacking his way through a jungle of cliches this is where it all began for Van Damme, ‘puts on nostalgia glasses’ Bloodsport is one of Van Damme’s best movies ‘takes off nostalgia glasses’ Bloodsport is one of Van Damme’s best movies!!!
Jaws (1975) This is a filmmaker who knows exactly what he is doing, his camera moves and slides with total assurance, every pan and dolly is deliberate and the very best moments are the quiet ones which bob gently on the swells of John Williams’ iconic music to elicit shivers like only Jaws can!!!
Solo A Star Wars Story (2018) doesn’t advance the legacy of the franchise or make Han Solo more beloved, but it does offer a fun-filled glimpse into the beginnings of the character. In the end maybe it’s fine to have a disposable instalment in the Star Wars universe!!🎬
