It’s just weird because I really don’t think this movie feels twenty years old. The same feeling came over me in July when I realized Terminator 2 was twenty.
I dunno, maybe it’s because I’m close to 40 but movies just don’t seem to age as badly as they did before.
I mean does Fellowship of the Ring or Training Day or Black Hawk Down feel 10 years old? Do they look that much different from something made today?
Then compare a movie from 1991 and 1981. Now THAT will look different!
The best part of that movie is the “hit me again and I’ll kill ya” scene. This movie was basically Die Hard 2.5 since Joe Hallenbeck was just John McClane with a different name. It also wasn’t nearly as convoluted as the Die Hard sequels, and I appreciate simplicity with action movies.
The style and focus of movie-making has changed so much in the past 30 years. I think the big turning point was Terminator 2, when CGI really got into the game. Computer animation has obviously advanced a great deal since then, but the contrast between pre-CG and post-CG is much more dramatic.
I shit you not, flicking through the channels lastnight I saw this movie in the guide and decided my stomach couldn’t handle the nineties wardrobe lol, holy pastel.
No Edgy she was in her 20’s and perfect. Her and Salma are Goddess’s sent to Earth to have statues made of and boys to masturbate to.
