And, I said "93 min with wasted scenes" in Taken, but I did typo. It's "without".

murelz Wrote:Forgot to respond to you in my post, street copies of movies are the pirated versions that you friendly neighborhood shadies sell. They're a favorite fair of deployed troops in Iraq. When I came back from my second deployment in 06 I had about 200 movies that I bought like that. Most of the time they would make collections of movies from a certain actor, so you could get like 6 movies by some guy on one DVD for like 5 bucks. They also did TV series like this, and the newer still in theater releases, I had a copy of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire like 3 days after it was out in theaters. Yeah its illegal but there's no copywrite laws round them parts and the soldiers took full advantage of it.

Street copy: Someone sits in the theater with a camera and tapes the movie, then makes copies, and sells them on the street. If you're lucky, the copy will be made from an advanced cd preview of the movie that go out to rental stores; these are better quality copies. They're good until the dvd comes out or if you want to see it on your dvd player before spending mucho dollars at the theater. Illegal but practical.Either way, the theater ends up with my money anyway.

Roadgames: One good movie from '80s. If Hitchcock directed Mad Max 2, I guess it would be like this. It's thriller, but some scenes were fun and humorous. Stacy Keach and very hot and young Jamie Lee Curtis! Need I say more?
saynomore Wrote:Dang, Kenj, I saw 13 Tzameti last night. There was a two for one sale, and I bought 13 T and Dead Birds. I liked Dead Birds, but 13 T haunted me. It merits a second look.

P.S. I've been pushing Roadgames for years. Low distribution killed this movie in the theaters, but it works better on dvd anyway. Two great movies.
Kenji Wrote:The Taking of Pelham 123: Last night I saw it in a theatre. I know this movie is remake from '70s. But I think it was good. Denzel Washington and John Travolta, their tactics were exciting and thrilling. Tony Scott did good work.

P.S. Now where's that Charley Varrick remake?
