I'm still a little annoyed about the threads being merged 😠. If they were going to combine them anyway, they should have at least removed Harryhausen from the title—now my thread feels totally stripped down 👎

I recall there being quite a bit of buzz surrounding Ratcatcher

Koz, what movie is that shot from—the one in the second-to-last row of your first post where the guy is fighting that massive crab?

This one’s more about adventure movies in general—not just the ones using stop motion animation.🙂

It’s finally happening—now that you’ve linked the topic 🤮

Oh yeah—I’m a huge fan of Antonia Bird because of Ravenous. 😍

Larry Martin11 said:EDIT: forgot Jane Campion I’m no expert when it comes to her filmography—I think I’ve only seen maybe two of her features and a couple of shorts—but even with my limited film knowledge, I feel like she definitely earned her spot in this conversation. 😁

I have a feeling she’s a one-hit wonder—Piano is absolutely fantastic, but the rest? Kind of meh. 🙂

Man, how could I have forgotten Tarzan? 😵

I thought Congo was pretty decent—just like the Cave Bear tribe and One Million Years B.C.

The Rundown is fun enough, but it doesn't quite reach the level of those classic adventure flicks.

Oh, absolutely—the 13th Warrior is a brilliant adventure, and Deep Rising and The Mummy are great too.

I haven't actually seen The Virgin Suicides, but since I think Lost in Translation is fantastic, Sophia definitely has a huge 👍 in my 🙏 🙏

The original Time Machine absolutely wrecked me 🙂

I just remembered watching Allan Quatermain and the Lost City of Gold and King Solomon's Mines 🙂 while chatting on another thread—man, I had such a blast with those movies. It made me want to start a dedicated thread for adventure films. What are your all-time favorites? It feels like true adventure flicks are pretty much extinct these days 😢 Maybe we'll get a new Indiana Jones soon, but real adventure cinema? Doesn't seem to exist anymore.

One of my personal favorites has to be The Island at the Top of the World .

What the hell? Why are you guys tripping? Paul Anderson directed Soldier and Event Horizon—as far as I'm concerned, those two movies alone make up for any other bad stuff he’s ever done or will ever do.

It’s pretty wild how many cool topics you can stumble upon in the '!!BEST TOPICS ON THE MOVIE SUBFORUM!! ( Last update: 10.05.2006. )' thread—I bet crimsonmoose3 would find this interesting 🙏

Ahem, so, let's talk about women breaking into traditionally male-dominated fields 🎉 Who are your favorite female directors? Do you even have any favorites in mind?

I'm a huge fan of Kathryn Bigelow—she gave us Strange Day, which I think everyone should see 🙏🙏🙏, plus Near Dark, hands down one of the most intense vampire horror films ever made.

Come on, weigh in here—don't let this thread die out 😬

Not gonna happen, buddy! I've already got the movies 🥳

Pointless
A group of silly movies—but man, this one is just so charming and heartfelt 😍

Honestly, A Group of Silly and Even Sillier is definitely the best mindless flick out there 🙏🙏

Personally, I’d go for a marathon—all three films plus the prequel, 'Within the Woods.' 🙏🙏

And just to top it all off? Throw in The Quick and the Dead followed by about three hours of trashing Spider-Man. 🙏
