You know… it's about time I start watching Christmas Vacation nearly daily for the next month or so
I was thinking this exact thing this past weekend.
Don’t forget Die Hard

Oh yeah, that's a great one. And Home Alone, of course. And The Snowman, with its lovely intro by Bowie in his short-lived 'nice cardie and a scarf' phase.

I watched a couple of trailers for mid-90s…anyone remember the film 'kids'?...used actual skater kids from Washington Square Park in NYC. When I used to visit a friend who lived in the village you'd see them skating in the park. Mid-90s looks like kids' little brother.

I thought the same thing. Looks like a newer version of Kids.
Still hyped to see it though. That was my era,
Skated everyday and have so many great memories from that time.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Watched "Rush" (1991) again. Great soundtrack thanks to Clapton, and it was fun seeing Gregg Allman as a drug kingpin. Solid flick.

I love that movie. There’s something special about the pace, performances and story. Low key but intense on all counts. Plus I’m a huge fan of JJL.

Thoroughbreds - epic movie. One of those that most likely slipped you by but is DEFO worth a viewing [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

Yes, great assessment–and she was REALLY good, as was Patric. And of course I always enjoy Sam Elliot and found, despite almost no lines, that Allman was a convincing biker dealer character.

Definitely reminds me of Kids although there are some semi well known actors/actresses in Kids sprinkled in with actors/skaters. BTW, speaking of KIDS….remember her?:
She's the very young girl who hooks up with Telly in the bedroom, I'm sure those who have seen KIDS will remember the scene.
EDIT: I should add that I can't actually confirm this is actually her but when you Google the cast of KIDS it shows her mug shot. Sarah Henderson is her name.

Gonna go see ”Overlord” tomorrow: nazis, zombies and - so I’ve been lead to believe - nazi-zombies. How bad could it possibly be? ::)
Watched ”First Man” yesterday. Solid. Not a massive crowd-pleaser, probably, rather more of a contemplative piece with lots of melancholy and sad/worried/tired faces. Ryan Gosling has that quality about him, his Armstrong and his replicant K are brothers from a different mother. I enjoy watching him, he is very understated in a relaxing way.
Oh and astronauts in the 60’s were absolutely full-on bonkers.

Reading stories like that makes me sick to my stomach.

^A terrible crime no doubt but I don't think it's the chick from Kids: the actress was described as being 17 at the time (1995), whereas the perpetrator was 29 at the time of the crime (2017).
I'm not 100% convinced it is her either and I'm thinking it's just a wikipedia type error on the interwebs. However, she looks quite a bit younger than 17 in the movie to me and it is possible the age of the suspect in the article is an error as it's not uncommon for that to happen either.
Either way, it would be interesting to find out for sure and if is an error it should probably be fixed on the Google search so people don't keep seeing that mugshot when you Google "cast of KIDS". Kind of a big error.

@manufc10 Sarah Nicole Henderson is 29, and kids was released in 1995 - 23 years go! so safe to say it's a different Sarah Henderson, as she would have been aged 4-6 years old during shooting (of the film, not her kids!), Tragic story though, tragic.
