Full Metal Jacket.
Full Metal Jacket.
Predator. It’s one of my favorite movies, one of two that I own on Amazon Prime. It’s a fucking classic.
It’s the ultimate guy movie
To Catch A Predator.
Full Metal Jackets and it's not even close you cretins.
Predator, for sure. It also gave birth to "The Arnie" which is a fucking badass watch.
Purple_Pills
New Fish
I haven’t seen “Radio Shack,” so that’s my vote.

Predator, and it’s not close. FMJ might be the most bipolar movie in history.
I was hosting a trivia show recently and all 8-10 teams bombed question so I offered them a do over.
In Predator, what does Dutch ask Dillon when they greet?
Nobody knew.
But the first 20 mins of FMJ are pretty tough to beat. I mean we're talking Mt Rushmore of the 1st 20 mins of a movie type stuff.

100% agree. FMJ is a must watch movie because of the beginning. The rest of the movie is kinda whatever IMO
This reasonable request is the highlight of in country FMJ in my opinion
You can't truly appreciate 7.62 NATO otherwise.
Predator is also a good example of something that was perfect and didn't need to be a franchise and is now taken over by nerds. The first movie was cool with badasses taking on a mysterious monster. The second was kind of cool and had some good gore if that's your think. Now we have animated series' and endless movies for a property that was legit just one good movie and now there's a mega nerd mythology about it. Same with Alien (though Aliens is a GOAT movie too). The alien franchise went from a scary ass mysterious alien and now it's all about how like what mixture of DNA creates these aliens? Huh?
I really liked the newest 3 alien movies for what they were. You aren't getting a bunch of 80's/90's horror action but you are getting some pretty disturbing kills and a unique sense of dread, a legit incredible actor, etc. The first couple kills that start in the medical lab in Covenant was all time sci fi horror material.
And then Romulus those first scenes/shots of the mining planet they were on, you can't get better sci-fi cinematography than that. Bonus points for how creepy it was to revive a deceased actor with AI. Bonus bonus points for again nailing the casting and getting Cailee Spaeny who is girl-next-door fucking hot and great in everything she's in.
They are goofy at times trying to introduce the Protoss looking aliens and Prometheus was the worst of the 3 which is why people probably gave up on the series, but they are great horror films and pretty unique.
I see they're making a movie adaptation of Alien Isolation which is almost guaranteed to get back to the 80's/90's style of the first movies.
