Two 80's movies

Today watched two movies, old movies, from the mid 80's, and I haven't seeing any of those in over 20 years.
The Last Starfighter and To Live and Die in L.A..
I had the The Last Starfighter on VHS when I was a kid and remember watching it over and over and over, I love that one.
Don't have any special fondness for To Live and Die in L.A. back then, but after re-watching it today the cinematography struck as really, really good, goes along pretty good with another favorite of mine Repo Man.

Movies During The Weekend

We are back on track, baby!
watched a helluva movies this weekend, it certainly looks like summer weather is finally dying...

  • The Forest
A modern, slick, somehow indie, horror flick.
The GF picked this one.
Nice visually, yes, but the movie is so-so.

  • Truth
Enjoyable, IMHO, better than Spotlight.
The best of this bunch.

  • The Informer
A re-watch for me, but a first for the GF.
It really goes hand in hand after "Truth".
This movie is part of our ongoing attempt to cover the whole Michael Mann filmography.

  • To Live And Die In LA
Another re-watch for me, and a first time for the GF.
I love this movie, watched for the first time in FHD, and obviously the cinematography looks even better.

  • Don Verdean
A piece of crap.
Totally forgettable.
It is a pity, because the cast is really, really good.

  • White House Down
Pure fun.
I think that Olympus Has Fallen was better, but we watched that a long time ago...

An Apple Saturday

Way too much Linux lately, way too much work lately... Time kick back and enjoy a bit of the old Os X.
Watching " "To Live and Die in L.A., pure 80's glory.
Robby Muller's cinematography is effing amazing, I haven't seeing the movie in 20 years or so, it aged wonderfully.
