  1. I would agree. i was trying to avoid technical advancement stuff. I was looking for more no doubters martial arts - Enter the Dragon submission is like a no doubter disaster - Airport is a no doubter mockumentary - Spinal Tap is a no doubter Science Fiction - 2001 is a no doubter Sci Fi Horror- Alien Slasher - Halloween is a no doubter Texas Chainsaw Massacre is interesting I guess you could call it Psychological Horror. The Exorcist should be one - maybe demonic horror? some are hard like Westerns and WWII movies because there are so many of them and have been made for decades in different styles. I want The Wild Bunch to be one but then how do you describe it vs. westerns before it as a genre. as always with these threads to each his own and some people have different opinions on defining a movie genre. It kind of has to be extremely unique when it came out.
  2. I bet he changes for this season just to prove a point and then goes back to Parsons-mode.
  3. and he is a WR. every team in college runs with 4 WR's. there are tons of them available in the draft/free agency. not necessarily dime a dozen but they are there every year. A guy like Parsons comes once every 5 or so. let Lamb go, get a really good rush end and let Parsons cook. I will give Lamb the boost over Parsons in the "play through pain" department. Parsons seemed like a bit of a pre-madonna.
  4. not denying its place in history and the effects but what genre?
  5. so all we needed was to lose our best starting pitcher and our 100billion dollar middle infield? I guess Billy Beane was right...
  6. yeah! when was the last time we won by 70 anyway?! This is bullshit! I want fucking 70 next week are Arch can sit the bench!
  7. Arch has had a partially torn rotator cuff since middle school.
  8. Buddy Cop movie - 48 Hours as truly defining it as it has existed for 40+ years since.
  9. well if the genre is spaghetti western it is GBU. but admit that spaghetti western is a pretty narrow subgenre to western.
  10. Have to agree that Superman did define the genre. Batman was just a better movie, IMO, while adding the movie song soundtrack to the mix.
  11. martial arts - I would say Enter the Dragon. Some may say Seven Samurai but that is almost all swordplay.
  12. my original idea was for the genre of a movie. some of this is blending into the technical/movie making aspects. IMO, saving private ryan is one of the best movies of all time, and the first 30 minutes is the best opening 30 minutes of any movie I will ever see in my lifetime but it's genre is still a WWII movie. Jurassic Park is similar. It is a monster movie. I put Jaws as one but the reality is it is a Monster movie, it just has the added First Summer Blockbuster tag which makes it somewhat unique. I'm trying to figure out Monster movie(is it Kong or is it Nosferatu). I guess monster could be separated into Animal Monster and Human Monster.
  13. according to the wiki - he was originally a vampire immune human but then became progeny between a vampire and a human.
  14. I would go with Batman but I can see Blade I don't think that had anything to do with it at all. Batman is the most popular comic book character in history. Most people didn't even know Blade was a comic book character.
  15. speaking of disaster movie genre - Airport 1970(although Poseidon Adventure to me is overall better)
  16. Bringing up Baby - screwball comedy The Wild Bunch - would probably fall into a modern western category as genre defining. there is definitely a Before Wild Bunch/After Wild Bunch as it relates to actual screen violence in a Western.
  17. yeah, Jurassic Park is really about the technical aspects. It was a huge leap that shocked audiences but I'm not sure it is a genre.
  18. There is going to be recency bias on this but I will go for Psycho - psycho thriller Public Enemy - Gangster Texas Chainsaw Massacre - Horror/Gore Slasher Halloween is a weird one - serial killer slasher? but is it same genre as Psycho? maybe it is Indie Slasher genre defining?
  19. Both Lucas and Spielberg were very influenced by it
  20. there are some movies that are genre defining. IMO, Alien is one of them. A few others, Jaws, 2001 Space Odyssey, Psycho, Public Enemy. Might make for a good topic.
  21. wow, rebels bailed out. holy shit.
  22. Chiles should starts...
  23. Mahomes effect
  24. ha ha. how does that happen?
  25. MIchigan is done.
