okay
movies i've i haven't seen too many lately
i have kids and we went and saw
The Rescuers Down Under over the the break do do you have kids you take to movies or
uh-huh
no no kids
yeah it's a Walt Walt Disney movie
and it didn't get as you know as good a reviews
as like the Little Mermaid the last one and got all kinds of Academy Awards and things
last year
but this one was i thought was excellent the i can't both
was that the animated version
yeah it's animated and i can't believe how good they're getting with their animation now
it's just just the special effects you know and in this movie this there's this boy and he rescues this uh bald eagle
and uh and it's a huge eagle you know wing span of twenty feet or something like that and the boy actually rides on his back
and he rides through the clouds you know and you see him coming out of the clouds his head coming out and then the bird coming out and it you know they're flying all over with it
and i mean i know there they there must have used been computers or something for animation this day but it was just
so real realistic and lifelike and good animation
what a good show
even better than Roger Rabbit insofar as animation
well Roger was a composite one there's one there's a movie i've seen Roger Rabbit that's not a recent movie
yeah
but uh i enjoyed that show
yeah that was made in a few i don't know several years back i guess
yeah yeah
latest latest one i've saw which was a
mistake to go see was Lionheart had Claude Van Damme
uh-huh
he was he's of course uh i guess he's trained in this uh martial arts of some sort but
the plot was bland the acting was bland It was just mostly centered upon his abilities to
chop them up huh
yeah chop them up exactly and
this is supposed to be the the guy that's uh replaces Bruce Lee or whatever or
or the next Chuck Norris
yeah
type guy
or he's singular i guess you know you know how they can make any of any single one of them in a movie to be a super
uh-huh
superstar
superstar of any sort you know but Chuck Norris of course could be just about equal if not more
uh-huh
um-hum
and all of them i guess could be in that fashion
or category
hum uh-huh
uh-huh
it was about uh
a French Foreign Legion fellow
keeps trying
who deserts to go help his brother's wife
who got who became a widow because he was selling drugs
and he got killed
really uplifting huh
so he deserts and goes to New York and he starts out by fighting to make money
and then he moves on to L A to where that where she is
to just help him out
um-hum
it was really i mean the Hollywood really must think there's some real dummies out there or something i don't know
yeah i haven't heard i hadn't heard much about that movie i other than it was a chop them up movie
but uh
well i guess that's one i won't go see
well it was worth the buck i guess
oh you went to the dollar movie yeah
yeah they show up at the dollar movie right after they get come out you know they're usually not
not that great or didn't do that great anyway
let me see let me see another movie i watched uh i want to see is uh that new one uh
a lot of
that won all those Academy Awards this year Dances With Wolves i haven't seen that have you seen that one yet
uh-huh
yeah
what what what
i i absorbed all of that movie in one sitting uh
i guess what made it so good was the cinematography cinematography
the the wide open you know spaces
yeah and the music and uh well it had an excellent story line Everything about it was good
um-hum
um i thought an excellent one too was misery
with Kathy Bates and James Caan i'm not a James Caan fan but
that was a well directed and acted movie
is that right
i'd recommend it It's a little on the violent side
uh-huh
but then what movie isn't anymore
right right yeah our movies today it used to be X and
you know and PGs used to be Rs and
seems like the rating system you know is kind of switching that way a little bit
well i have no objections to it It's just uh and it's a matter of your taste uh
yeah yeah oh yeah it's just that yeah it's just that the rating system seems you know instead of having X now they have what NC seventeen
yeah
they just changed it because X had a connotation with it you know
so
and even on those type they don't show what you expect
right a lot of those are really violent type movies
right
really gory
um
yeah that seems to be the norm of most movies but
um
what the hey this is America
let me see
let me see one movie i saw i guess it was a while back Red October have you seen that one
yeah yes i have that was pretty good
yeah i read the book before so i knew the story line going in but
they changed some things in the movie wasn't the same i thought the book was better
than the movie but i thought the movie was really good as well
i always wait for the movie i don't have time to read the book
yeah i don't i read about one or two thick novels like that a year
uh-huh
you know that's about all the time i can
i can spare but that was a good show i thought you know
i read about how they did uh an article on how they did all the special effects with the submarine you know that wasn't a real submarine you saw in the water it was it was all done in studio with smoke and mirrors and
all the Hollywood magic it all those underwater scenes
yeah
i thought you know it looked to me like it was a real submarine
they did me to
that was in the water you know
that's the magic of Hollywood special effects i hear this movie F X part two coming out is uh pretty good
yeah
is that right
did you ever see the original one
i didn't
it was uh you ought to rent the uh F X part one It doesn't say part one but it it's F slash X
huh what's that about
a uh special effects man who somehow gets involved in this um
oh
i'm not sure i can't remember It's been a while since i've seen it But he he gets involved in some sort of bad dealings
with somebody and he has to go underground and he uses all of his special effects knowledge in doing what needs to be done
hm
and uh
to to fool people and and things huh
right and using makeup and using the
all the tricks
all the props and whatever to get to where he needs to go
uh-huh that sounds like an interesting concept
but you need to rent the first one first
to understand what's going on the second
uh if if that is that the second one follows the first i don't know if they have the uh
original actors on that first one to that one
uh-huh
they're supposed to be coming out with all these Desert Storm movies
oh i expected those i mean Hollywood i mean they were doing their dealings with that before they even got over there i think
this summer too
yeah
yeah well they had some in some of those you know they i guess they retitled some movies that were going to be about Lebanese and and you know and
uh-huh
and Americans and they decide oh make it Iraqis and Americans you know and they just change the title and
uh and reshot a few parts you know where they yeah you know where they could i guess they figured we wouldn't can't tell the difference between an
actual names will not be used
yeah right
eventually i'm sure they will come out with the the the proper names
yeah
right it was such a it i guess they they'll probably come out with a lot of
movies you know it was it was such a rout though you know i don't know
you know they probably do the story of someone who was shot down early in the war or something and how he survived or
latest story
or about or about those two newsmen or whatever that got captured
uh-huh
Kevin Costner i understand is supposed to be play Schwartzkopf supposedly
is that right
i don't know that's just one of the many rumors that floats around
yeah
or what you read
um-hum
well i think we've probably
pretty much used up the tape i guess
yeah yeah it's been about five minutes
it's been nice talking with you
same and uh we'll
keep on watching those movies huh
talk to you on the next go around
okay bye-bye
adios
