His performance in Mosquito Coast is excellent and against type. -- nm - Remlik Jan 17, 10:01 2
- Ok, so, it's 1986, set in Central America. Well-known director, interesting premise. It's only on Google Play (unless I can find it on DVD or BluRay). - ori-o Jan 17, 10:07
- Must look up this one -- nm - ori-o Jan 17, 10:02
Indiana Jones is a non Star Wars franchise movie, so I will go with that. -- nm - Spawn Jan 17, 09:41 1
- The first one (in that franchise).. ? -- nm - ori-o Jan 17, 09:46
... The Fugitive, raiders, crusade ... -- nm - Beryllium Jan 17, 09:34 7
- Ok, yeah, sorry, forgot about the Indiana Jones-franchise, weirdly enough. Let's leave that one aside also. -- nm - ori-o Jan 17, 09:35 6
  - ah. Then I would say Blade Runner unless 2 movies that far apart count. -- nm - Spawn Jan 17, 09:43 1
    - Hmm, good point - I love Blade Runner. -- nm - ori-o Jan 17, 09:46
  - I thought your "franchise movie" covered Star Wars and Indy :) -- nm - Beaker Jan 17, 09:36 3
    - It would've made sense for that to be the case, I'll admit, but the hyphenation said otherwise. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 17, 09:37 2
      - You are right, I was not thinking about Indiana Jones while writing - I simply forgot -- nm - ori-o Jan 17, 09:40
      - And some people say that Indiana Jones takes place entirely within Han Solo's carbonite-infused mind, but I don't buy that. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 17, 09:38

- Googling.. 1985... (amazing year)... Not sure I ever saw it. In what way would you say it's great? A solid thriller? Great directing? Soundtrack, co- - ori-o Jan 17, 09:33 4
  - it's always been one of my favorite of his. great acting, story, cast...highly recommended -- nm - Beaker Jan 17, 09:35 3
    - I'll watch it. 1985 is almost an argument in itself ^ ^ -- nm - ori-o Jan 17, 09:39 2
      - Oscar nom for Best Director, Actor, Picture, plus 3 more; won for Editing and screenplay directly for the screen -- nm - Beaker Jan 17, 09:43 1
        
        Would be strange if I've never seen it, given all that.. I see it's on iTunes, YouTube Movies, Google Play and Blockbuster, at least. -- nm - ori-o Jan 17, 09:45
