thank you, may have to investigate it, as I had never heard of it before.

Bronx Warriors 1990 (made in 1983)
I saw this when I was very young and remembered it as an awesome fighting movie. I remembered the leader being so tough and the gangs to be scary. I hadn't seen it for over 20 years and recently had the chance. Let me just say it would have been better if I hadn't. It was better in my memory. The Warriors is so much deeper and richer in every aspect of the movie.

I loved the original Star Wars trilogy when it came out in theaters again a while back. I also liked the Toy Story movies. I remember bugging my parents to get me all of the toys for Christmas, which I still probably have somewhere.

I used to fake being sick, so I wouldn't go to school when I was a kid everytime SUPERMAN 1 or 2 was on tv. I also can't help watching (every minute with my eyes glued to the tv) ROCKY 1 and 2 ( 3 and 4 not so much...). Oh, let's not forget the ultimate guilty pleasure... MIDNIGHT MADNESS

Yeah! Michael J. Fox is the man!

I just thought of another horrible movie that hoped would be a Warriors sequel. Knights of the City. Awful. It was made in the early 80's.

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. Also, any wallace and Gromit short.

While reading this stuff I just thought of another childhood movie I grew up too..TRON

Just for the simple fact that the special effects

in the movie at the time,blew me away as a kid,because it was new at the time,and it was never seen before in film..

And visually it was like being transported to a new world,and being a videogame fan too,you got a kick looking at this from a videogame prespective..I love the Lightcycles races the most

And the races,visually,it was so cool in 1982,

And how the Video game was incorporated in the film was unbelivable at the time

Overall,the visuals and the glowing colored neon,on the big screen in a dark theater was amazing as a kid,

This was a time when your imagination would come alive watching this stuff
