Watched Explorers with the kids and realized it has the same nostalgia for 50's sci-fi that Stranger Things has for the 80's.

    If we make it to 2050 there will be nostalgia movies about Marvel.

    Classic 80s. I prefer this to Flight of the Navigator and it has that atmosphere that seemed to be unique to 80s sci-fi.

    I remember seeing as a kid and being pissed that the aliens weren't serious (aka, like Star Wars).

    Jay Exonauts Yes, that was a massive letdown for me as well. The rest of the movie had me at the edge of my seat.

    Andy Garske Abby got bored and went to her room and Coop kept asking when the aliens would show up.

Originally shared by Curt Thompson This is an interesting theory, but I notice the author has to omit one of the most important Heinlein novels to make it work. Time Enough For Love was written in the very early 70s and was a straight (heh) extrapolation of the chaotic and frenetic zeitgeist of that era. http://www.locusmag.com/Perspectives/2012/11/the-joke-is-on-us-the-two-careers-of-robert-a-heinlein/

Hit Me with your Horror

Originally shared by Andrew “Incomitatum” Chason Hit Me with your Horror I am looking for some horror flicks. The newer the better. Good is good too. I liked House of 1000 Corpses and Devil's Rejects . I liked both the new Texas Chainsaw movies. Hills Have Eyes 1 was good (never saw the second . Jeepers Creepers 1 & 2 come to mind as well. A little camp, and/or "back woods" can't hurt. Any of you have any recommendations? Lets try and not go too far back than mid 90's. Aside: How was the new "Freddy" movie? Suggested So Far • Bones (2001) • Drag Me to Hell (2009) • The Grudge (2004) • Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (2010) • Dog Soldiers (2002) • The Decent (2005) • Creature (2011) • The Last Winter (2006)
