The Overrated Thread

A little tip I learned recently. There are very few old films particularly from the 80s that I woukd watch again. Seemed brilliant at the time but in hindsight after watching one or two again, they were pure scutter. I recently put myself through the agony of watching the original top gun again.
Its all a matter of personal taste I know but there was some digshit brought out

Mercifully you will always have Johnny Doyle and the Flourbags to restore your equilibrium.

If it was good then it’s good now, obviously there was a load of shit 80s movies but I’d say it was a golden age, I can think of dozens of stone cold classics

Crocodile Dundee was a brilliant movie, can’t remember anything about part 2 though

You could argue Cork in general

Agreed

Johnny is a thoroughly alright sort.

They’re royalty. Royalty don’t suffer delusions when it comes to their birthright

They should teach this sort of stuff in schools.
Profusely profound so it is.

Nah, the 80s has some absolute gems

Were ye working in the Beefy King?

Films in general, with the exception of little known low budget late 1970s gritty British dramas.

no, out in Ardkeen, opposite Uluru, beside the Cove. Think its an Eddie Rockets now where Xtravision was.

Predator is one of the greatest films of all time, and one you’d watch over and over.
