One of my all time favorite films. Did you know that Stallone really broke one of his ribs when he hit one of the tree branches? That's why his screaming looked so real
Also, the special effects/make up they used when he's sewing his arm still looks real...the way the blood was coming out, I have no idea how they made it look so real.
Omg, on the huge screen I could clearly see the blood pouring out from his well made up wound, amazing.
I hadn't seen the movie since the 80's, I was completely blown away tonight. It was like seeing it for the first time while simultaneously remembering many of the scenes.
I forgot just how crazy the stunt work was in that movie.
I'm happy that my revisit was on such a gloriously huge screen!
Epic dirt!
thats my biggest problem.
that's the one thing i wish they changed. everything now looks super clean, everything looks sterilized, even jungles look like a set for a tv commercial.
there is no grittiness anymore, there is no dirtiness to things, movies back then were more believable and you could submerge yourself more because everything looked old and dirty or damaged or lived in. there was a grayness to everything .
Now... now movies look like commercials for Panthene shampoo or for Apple products.
No doubt no doubt, you hit the nail on the head.
Want to know how ****ed up, fickle and shallow our modern society is?
Rhonda Rousey was recently on Fallon and to promote that they sent out a still image to the media of her sitting on the chair next to his desk.
Someone, probably the advertisers, felt that her arm was too thick so they doctored the image to make her arms look thinner.
Her fans started to blame her and she came out and said it wasn't of her doing.
She's a fighter for christ sake, she's going to have thick arms!
We can't even have a photo of a person sitting on a ******* chair without it being photoshopped to death.
Keeping things real is no longer allowed.
And one or two, really?...
