Summer of 1989 was a good one. I was 15 and between Sunday afternoon trips to the movies with my older sister and Friday night at the movies with my friends, I saw just about everything. Lethal Weapon 2 was the best film of 1989, in my book. And next to Empire Strikes Back & Godfather 2, it was one of the greatest sequels ever made. I saw that opening weekend with my sister, we also saw KK3 & Great Balls of Fire while my friends and I enjoyed Indy & Last Crusade, Ghostbusters 2 and Batman. Man, going to the movies use to be so much fun. I saw a lot of films now deemed "classics" and a lot of films quickly forgotten.

Gene and Roger were two different types of critics. Gene reviewed a movie based on his own personal reaction to it. Roger I think liked to review the audience more. He was more of a "man of the people" and wanted to be liked. He did also like to go against the crowd every once in a while though. For example, he gave thumbs down to Batman and the original Lethal Weapon. Gene gave both thumbs up if you are keeping score.

I remember the summer of 89 had a lot of big movies & sequels. Lethal weapon karate kid 3 Indiana jones 3 & batman which I loved Ghostbusters 2 & star trek. It was kinda weird that daniel & the girl in the movie decide to just be friends. I guess they wanted it to be different. The best part of the movie is terry silver. Crazy terry in real life was younger than macchio. The cobra kai series is fantastic. I'm really happy for billy zabka who played the dickhead bully in a bunch of 80s movies so it's really refreshing to see cobra kai from Johnny's point of view. Man when I saw the other cobra kai guys I didnt recognize them they aged so much but zabka & macchio look amazing for their ages. Great balls of fire was awful & creepy he married his 13 year old cousin. I know it's a movie but wouldnt Bernie be stiff. Literally & start to decay ? I guess in a weekend they wouldnt . But theyd be stiff with rigor Mortis. I know I know it's a movie.

Why aren't we implementing lysol in our every day lives? Does lysol have a transcendent form? Is lysol the prime mover? The world deserves a sound conclusion to these questions. But our minds cannot truly embrace the mind of lysol. I said I liked lysol? I love lysol.

I think Roger was absolutely correct about the cartoonishly sanitized Jerry Lee Lewis film, and that Gene was out to lunch. It was his first cousin, once removed, Gene, not his "second cousin, twice removed". I think Gene was twice removed from the darker implications of this film. By the way, this film was loosely based on the autobiography of Myra Brown, the 13 year old girl who married Jerry Lee Lewis, who was unhappy how her publisher changed the focus from her to Jerry Lee Lewis, and who was also unhappy with this film adaptation, because she was promised to be involved in the script and casting, and then was cut out of both of them. No wonder this film was so sanitized and misleading. The producers didn't want the ugly truth of Lewis to come out. Jerry Lee Lewis is also believed by some to have murdered one of his wives, and to have covered it up with the help of police who arrived on the scene.

Instead it beats a premise to death and drags the corpse around. If that was the point, bravo.

@@christopjerfoote5747 'Great Balls Of Fire' was a good film; it was just inaccurate as shit. Despite that, I might go out on a limb and say that it's probably the best music biopic, or at the very least my favorite music biopic. Music biopics are always way too serious for their own good (especially nowadays), and at times, nauseatingly schmaltzy, with the melodrama dialed way up. They try way too hard to appeal to audiences as emotionally-moving and epic. Musicians always have to be tragic characters in all their movies with stereotypical sex, drugs, and rock n' roll story arcs (I suppose it'd be boring otherwise, but at least it wouldn't be predictable). They're always getting high, fucking, crying, and then having lamely depicted epiphanies about halfway through the film that leads to the writing of their "big hit" or something (usually unironically similar to that one scene in 'Forrest Gump' where, in comedic fashion, he inspires John Lennon's 'Imagine' on The Dick Cavett Show). 'Great Balls Of Fire' is/was not one of those kinds of films. Many might disagree with me, but I also thought Dennis Quaid made for a good Jerry Lee Lewis. Other than that, I've always maintained that music has no business being made into a Hollywood film. If you want a story about musicians or rock stars, ask a roadie to tell you one.

The third karate kid was absolute trash. Gene was way off this episode.

Yes, the opening montage almost looks like the bad karate teacher is going to change..almost invites sympathy for him..instead they get a Stephen Seagal look alike to help him...

ilovebrandnewcarpets - you're utterly wrong, part 3 was/is a good film, and better than part 2.

Part 2 was trash! Long and Boring! Go eat an egg roll! Part 3 has a lot of fans.

If Ghostbusters 1 didn't exist, sure, but by comparison it's not so great. The plot is a beat-by-beat retread of the first, Bill Murray wasn't happy so you barely get any ad-libs, most of the scripted jokes are clangers, and the stuff like "We be fast and they be slow" feels like they were trying way too hard. Oh, and that painting of them in the end made zero sense.

I wonder what Cisco and E Burt would have thought of the sequel to "weekend at Bernie's" weekend at Bernie's to the Joe Biden administration? Lol
