Whilst one would assume that huge box office hits such as Titanic would be the biggest renters, they weren't. Movies that were that huge had a short window of popularity on video, too many people had already seen them. That's why movies that had moderate to high box office takings such as Austin Powers converted to huge renters. Just enough people had seen them to create a buzz and good word of mouth kept them humming. Ahhh The good old days...... Here endeth the lesson |

Owned a picture theatre in a small coastal town on the mid north coast of NSW way back in the mid 1970's. Biggest ticket sales I ever had were for "Star Wars".Had the dubious distinction of hosting the Australian premiere of "Piranha".lol

Nobody Mentioned.
The Last Boy Scout. Still one of my Fav Movies |

KC....Piranha
Gee, I love an old picture theatre. The architecture, the whiff of simpler times. Not quite old enough to see them at their peak. I know the inner suburban one that I used to attend on a Sunday still stands....doesn't seem anywhere near as big as it used to although no longer operating (weatherboard firetrap  )Kelly's Heroes, My Name is Nobody, Von Ryan's Express, The One Armed Swordsman, the early, really dodgy scifi picks of the early-mid 70's. FWIW, over Xmas I went to the theatre in Lorne. Is probably Post war/Deco very "subdued" on the exterior),inside seemed VERY original, even the "EXIT" lights  Those were the days my friend, we thought they'd never end...  |

by Yahoo serious you obviously mean Young Einstein, whoever mentioned Blue Bothers that was a great pick up. "Excessive force in the apprehension of the Blues Brothers, has been approved" and the classic "I hate Illinois Nazi's"

That reminds me of 'Bananas' a very funny Woody Allen classic.
What about movies to watch before you pass...wind. |
|
By:
Ok, this is not a great movie, per se, but The Dark Knight just for the (final) performance of Heath Ledger as The Joker.
Intense, captivating and inspired. |
|
By:
I don't watch any Batman sh!t that hasn't got Adam West and Burt Ward in it!
|
|
By:
Then just isolate the Heath Ledger bits
I do take your point though. As a child of the 60s I find it hard not to fall back to the original as the most watchable. It was so camp! |

Loved Deer Hunter ( Russian Roulette thing put me on edge) and One Flew over the Cuckoo's nest. ( Can't beat Jack Nicholson.)
Worst. Edward Scissor Hands. ( Still don't get the movie ????? my wife loved it ????, half way through I was praying he'd take a pisss and with a bit of luck he's bleed to death, that way we could get down the club and have a early beer and bet. ) Volcano ( Charlten Heston was pretty ordinary as well.) |
