Lethal Weapon 4 - I still think that 2 is the best of the series, but 4 might just be my favorite now. It's been a few years since I've seen it, and the blu ray is a huge improvement over the grainy old dvd's. For me, the plot is secondary. I just love all the interaction between the characters. Even the stuff they mutter that you can't really hear, it's just full of the guys making jokes about each other. Great practical stunts (a lost art) and a terrific score too, even if Michael Kamen did sort of drift into his Die Hard theme a few times. And the sound effects of the hits are great. Each punch landed sounds like a ham being slammed on concrete. This was the movie where it seemed that Mel had lost looks and just seemed out of shape. Yes, it's part of the plot, but it was in real life too as he's looked worse in every movie since. But I was shocked to see he was only 42 when this came out! I figured he had to be 50 at least. It's a shame he's ranted his way out of big movies, as he was one of the few stars that had a real personality and energy on screen.

The new Mad Max trailer prompted me to dust off the original and watch it again.

I wish that movie had an option where you could just turn off the dialogue and listen to the sound effects and score.

Ghost Rider SOV nearly ruined my soul. Cage was always very wrong for GR but my God they went REAL wrong in the 2nd movie.
my last was Guardians Of The Galaxy. My God absolute brilliance. Well done Gunn/MS. You are 10 for 10. Maybe now folks will give Peyton Reed a shot with Ant Man. MS have proven this year with the Russos & Gunn that they know what they are doing with directors. |

As bad as the Ghost Rider 2 was, the actual costume or character design or whatever you call it, was the absolute best comic book to screen translation ever. He just looked perfect.
