Older Movies That Are Forgotten

Hate to say, in another thread about Peaky Blinders, Blacklist thread, both of which are a great series, but I get tired after a few views. Thus I needed a break.

So I surfed Netflix and found "Awakenings". One of the better Robin Williams obscure films. Not a fan of Robert De Niro, but a good flick from 1992.

I watched it a long time ago. Glad I found it again. I like historical films and a feel good or bad story.

Recommended.

What other hidden gems are out there...

We all have our preferences. This is a generic, not niche classic ala Rocky Horror Picture Show nor Monty Pythons stuff nor Casablanca.

Hahah. That movie has always been a guilty pleasure of mine. It’s just fun and a true product of its time.

I haven't read the entire thread but:

Vision Quest with Mathew Modine is a great movie, almost every wrestler loves it.

Streets of Fire, with Michael Pare, Welhelm Dafoe and Diane Lang is an unusual yet great flick. Loved the soundtrack too.

Just One Of The Guys (1985)

I grew up on this movie. Hilarious with tons of eye candy.

Both of these movies are classics, Streets of Fire one of my all time favorites. Diane Lane was only 18 years old but wow, she was unforgettable in her role. Eddie and The Cruisers and The Warriors are a couple more of my favorites. Willem Dafoe made a great villain in Streets of Fire:

As I recall, they were spectacular.

Funny how some women have amazing stealth boobs. I used to work with a girl who was pretty but seemingly nothing spectacular. Was around her daily for months. Then we went to a concert one night, and HOLY SHIT. She had a rack that was nothing short of amazing, accentuated by the top she was wearing. Apparently she had a clear work mode and going out on the town mode, and I had no idea. Hair, makeup, everything. She cleaned up into one of the most beautiful women I'd ever seen and I'd seen her regularly forever and never had a clue. She must have worn an iron truss to the office every day.

Made a bit of an ass of myself because I couldn't stop staring at her chest. Her boyfriend didn't seem to like it much. Neither did my date.

Honey, I Shrunk The Kids (1989)

Saw this in the theaters as a kid. I always liked Rick Moranis.

Another mostly forgotten 80s movie is James Cameron's The Abyss. It came out between the much more successful and acclaimed Aliens and Terminator 2, but is a great film in its own right. The early CGI it employed still holds up and was the progenitor for the groundbreaking stuff in T2 and everything else that came later.

For anyone who hasn't seen it, I recommend sticking to the theatrical release. The director's cut throws in a brewing war subplot that adds absolutely nothing and detracts from the main story.

And if you ever run into Ed Harris, don't ask him about this movie. Cameron basically tried to drown him multiple times during the movie's production and he apparently had a serious problem with that.

Yea. That movie is amazing. From my understanding they filmed most of the underwater stuff inside an abandoned nuclear plant or something? A big budget sci-fi movie would never be made today with so much practical effects.
