Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

Quite possibly.  But my fave is 3, or, Army of Darkness, when the franchise finally realized that Bruce Campbell is hilarious and quit trying to be a real horror series. 

For sure, I like that about it as well.

But the original is just so stereotypically campy, it so perfectly captures the quintessential cheeseball 70s/80s low-budget horror film that is NOT trying to be a spoof, that it's always going to be my favorite.

The MI movies are entertaining, but I was over it in the first one, when he removes the realistic mask.  Once you have that, you can just do/be whatever you want.  
That's why I don't like too much magic in a movie - you can just do anything.  Limits are a good thing.  A confined universe where there are rules and limits makes it better.

In the MI series, anyone can actually be anyone else, and while that might appeal to some people, I just see it as a giant stack of get-out-of-jail-free cards.  It's not fun anymore.

Rogue One--<This is a really good movie in it's own right.  Very well done.  

Phantom I think it's aged better than expected
Revenge Great all around film, very good cinematography and plot
Clones horrible acting, decent action scenes and meh CGI.

Solo


The last two films in the "sequel trilogy" are so bad they pull down TFA.  The last two are just stupendously bad.  

Solo is the worst of the "good" movies, or the best of the "bad" movies.  I'm on board with any order of the top 5 and the bottom 5, but Solo at #6 seems like the easy pick.  It's the one movie that I find entirely fine.

It would be interesting if I could somehow experience Solo as a young kid without the nostalgia-ties to the old movies.  I've only seen Solo once, but how I remember it is that I liked the plot and structure and tone of the movie well enough, but I had real trouble with the actors portraying the characters of Han and Lando.  Harrison Ford is for me, unfortunately, irreplaceable.  Nobody is going to do Han Solo like Han Solo is supposed to be after having grown up with that character.  And, while I generally like Donald Glover in most of his projects (another reason to love Community), it was the same thing with him.....he just didn't do it for me as Lando. 

I had the same problem with the J.J. Abrams reboot of Star Trek with the Kelvin-timeline.  Most of the actors in it are great in other things I've seen them in.  But James T. Kirk is William Shatner, and there's nothing to be done about that.  Same for Leonard Nimoy, DeForest Kelly, etc.  I've seen some people really criticize the plot and other things about those movies.  I dunno.....I don't remember minding that part of it.  I guess I never made it past the necessary and inevitable change in actors to play those roles, such that my opinion of them was doomed kind of no matter what. 

For sure, I like that about it as well.

I fall right in the middle. I feel like Army of Darkness abandoned the genre too much, but it was a good time.

Good? Bad? I'm the guy with the gun.

Might be how I'd feel if I'd experienced the original in real time.  I was in about 8th grade or thereabouts when Army of Darkness came out, and it was the first one I saw.  The others I watched some years after that, decades after their original release.  So for me, AoD was the "original" and its predecessors were there to show me how things needed to evolve to get to "my" movie.  
Did either of you catch Ash vs. Evil Dead that ran for a few seasons about a decade ago?  I only caught the first season, and I don't remember it that well now, but iirc it struck me as a bit of a mix between the first two movies and AoD.  It was definitely still a comedy, but it took itself a little more seriously as a horror show than AoD did.  I see it's on Prime.....I might have to give that a try.  

Yeah the kids stumbled over Ash vs. Evil Dead and we all watched it together.  It was a lot of fun.

I knew it was from the TV show, but I wouldn't know what's "integral" from it.....I've never seen the old TV show.
