Poster for Generations, featuring Kirk and Picard’s faces in the Starfleet delta, with the Enterprise D flying out of it.
75. Star Trek Generations. Is it a good film? No. Does it At least give Kirk a good send off? Also no. But it did have some nice moments between Kirk and Picard (not enough, but you know), and Malcolm McDowell on fantastic villain form. Also, first Trek I saw at the cinema. #365films

The first time I was shown the book, I asked what it was about.
The person with the book said one word, "Rabbits"
Poster for High Fidelity, featuring a record coming out of its sleeve, which has nine different photos of the top of Rob Gordon’s head on it.
74. High Fidelity. Okay, I haven’t watched this in years, so maybe it doesn’t hold up. But my memory tells me it’s a good film, that a lot of people misunderstood. Rob Gordon is a dick, which is the point. But the film lets us laugh at him as he learns to not be. Plus, Springsteen cameo! #365films

An film about the importance of immigration.
Poster for the film, featuring a large image of Telos, and three smaller images of events from the film.
73. Jason and the Argonauts. One of my favourite Harryhausen films. Telos, the harpies and, of course, the skeletons, are all superb set pieces. I’m surprised we haven’t had a modern remake of it (maybe Clash of the Titans put Hollywood off), but I’m glad too, as it wouldn’t look as good. #365films

73 - Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade released in 1989. Either the best or second-best Indiana Jones films. The addition of Sean Connery as his dad was a great choice. Many say this is the final Indiana Jones movie.

72 - Honey, I Shrunk the Kids released in 1989. For a late '80's movie a pretty amazing set of effects. Definitely miss Rick Moranis in movies.
Poster for the film, featuring a grotesque body coming out of a pod, which itself seems to becoming from a spatial anomaly. There are also scenes of rioting around it.
My copy of the film on blu ray.
72. Invasion of the Body Snatchers. This is one of those rare occasions where I like the remake more than the original version of a film. The 1978 Body Snatchers is chilling in a way the original can’t quite match, and has a superb cast. Plus, one of the greatest final shots ever. #365films
Poster for Godzilla, featuring the big G blasting with his radioactive breath.
Art of Godzilla chomping on a building, from the my copy of the Criterion Showa Era boxset.
71. Godzilla. Or Gojira. The original, and (one of) the best Godzilla films. When you compare it to many of the later, sillier films in the series, it’s a real eye-opener. It’s well paced, dark and moody, and superbly done throughout. I need to watch the American version one of these days. #365films

71 - Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure released in 1989. Whoa, we all find out about Keanu Reeves. George Carlin is great too. This is very much a cult classic that improved with age, I think.

70 - Batman released in 1989. The first of the modern superhero films? Continued the amazing growth of Michael Keaton as an actor for the '80's. Almost a decade since Superman flew out as a superhero film. Prince + Danny Elfman! Burton + Keaton + Elfman!

69 - Back to the Future Part II released in 1989. Not as good as the first but expanded upon the idea in interesting ways. Too bad we didn’t get the 2015 it predicted. We got the bad timeline it seems.
Poster for Final Fantasy, featuring Aki stood on some clear water, looking down at the viewer.
My copy of the film on DVD.
70. Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within. I became a huge FF fan in the PS1 era. FFVIII’s FMV cutscenes made me want a Final Fantasy movie. And then one arrived, and while it looked great, it bore no resemblance to the games. There’s some interesting ideas, but it was just a bit of a mess. #365films

68 - Willow released in 1988. 80's fantasy action film with a great Val Kilmer and lots of practical effects and costumes. A rare LucasFilm and MGM combo.
#365Films
67 - Who Framed Roger Rabbit released in 1988. Best mixing of live action and animation since Mary Poppins. Combining all the Disney and WB cartoons in a single movie, no way! Maybe we will get another one once all IP is owned by one company.
Poster for Blade, featuring Blade posing in front of a red close up of Deacon Frost’s face.
My wife’s copy of Blade on DVD.
69. Blade. This is where the modern Marvel blockbuster starts, and leads us to the MCU, and what comic book movies are today. For better and for worse. Still, in its own right, it’s a great action vampire film, and Wesley Snipes is awesome as Blade. #365films

66 - Scrooged released in 1988. One of my favorite of the Christmas Carol adaptations. It doesn't get as much love as some of the other Christmas classics.

65 - Midnight Run released in 1988. Robert De Niro as a bounty hunter that can never catch a break. Fun action comedy buddy film. I think it is much better than it is given credit for.

Poster for Star Trek VI, featuring Kirk, Spock and McCoy’s faces in a pillar of light, coming out of an explosion as the Enterprise flies passed, dodging fire from two Klingon ships.
67. Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. My second favourite Trek film. Get me in the right mood, I might even say favourite. It’s a magnificent swan song for the TOS crew, with some great effects stuff, and classic Star Trek political commentary. I love it. #365films
