Just give me any movie recommendation that you think will make me nostalgic. Recommend something that you think, watching it, would make most people feel nostalgic. I am not giving you any details about me like my geographical location or age or anything to attract different kinds of movies.

The neverending story

Did you know that the horse died when they filmed the swamp scene 😬

[–] StoneKeeper (27079) 2 years ago

Whaaaat??? Accidentally?

[–] AndyKing1967 (38402) 2 years ago

Yep, it’s absolutely true - the horse died as a result of that scene, depending on which story you believe.

[–] StoneKeeper (27079) 2 years ago

Fuck…

[–] AndyKing1967 (38402) 2 years ago

After the initial outcry came the coverup.

[–] Stratego (30574) 2 years ago

Nah, it's an urban legend. The horse did panic, even though it had been trained for that scene.

[–] StoneKeeper (27079) 2 years ago

Absolutely true VS Urban legend… I am lost in between.

Driller Killer (1979)

Ah, those were the days 💭

[–] Mrmojo4700 (21539) 2 years ago

Back in the days when New York needed Charles Bronson. 😀

I want a Driller Killer/Maniac (80) double feature at the nearby retro theater, sadly they shut down for good.

It was the kind of place you could watch oldies for a few bucks a ticket and they sometimes hosted 12 hour horror marathons.

[–] Mrmojo4700 (21539) 2 years ago

I can’t tell you how bad I would love to live near a place that showed retro cult films. That must have been wonderful.

[–] ShogunofYonkers (77552) 2 years ago

At the marathons the lobby was full of dealers selling old vinyl, comics, memorabilia, posters… It was awesome, I really miss the place since they shuttered.

They looked the other way when most of the audience snuck in beers too😁

[–] Mrmojo4700 (21539) 2 years ago

Holy shit! It sounds like a dream come true.

[–] CrabgrassWilly (1616) 2 years ago

The Princess Bride?

[–] AndyKing1967 (38402) 2 years ago

Which was basically Inception, but with books.

[–] CrabgrassWilly (1616) 2 years ago

lol!

Back to the Future (1985)

[–] AndyKing1967 (38402) 2 years ago

That was going to be my sensible pick before I was overwhelmed with immaturity.

[–] nyctc7 (43693) 2 years ago

Sensible Driller Killer? Here is Jay Leno on senseless vs sensible killing

Any of the Christmas-themed films, like A Christmas Story (1983) or Home Alone (1990).
