I believe that 1 or 2 stuntfolks died in James Bond For Your Eyes Only. I recently saw a documentary about Mad Max Road Warrior, you really appreciate such scenes if you know what it takes for people to perform, and btw, this movie is a masterpiece. I like the costums in this movie as well, the fashion was a great inspiration for Duran Duran (who's name reminds me of the movie Barbarella, ha!)Apocalypse Now is on top of my list of all time favorite, I just love about everything about this movie. (Not the redux version btw) I have seen the docu about the making of Apocalypse (Heart of Darkness), now this movie was made with such dedication and passion in the most difficult circumstances. Blade Runner, like you mentioned, unbelievable quality, brilliant acting (our Dutch pride Rutger Hauer is such a brilliant Nexus). He did another great underdog movie; Flesh + Blood, the first English movie from (again Dutch pride) Paul Verhoeven. I remember this movie was considered disgusting in our country, because of all the violence and rape scenes. I think it is a very well made and raw movie. It was in this movie Rutger Hauer got a fight with Paul Verhoeven because they he had to work all day in heavy smoke fumes, which where done by burning rubber car tires. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> Speaking of Paul Verhoeven, I toss in another great 80s; Robocop. Great stop-motion scene of that weird robot btw.The Empire Strikes Back, stop-motion scenes of the AT-AT's, months of work, good Lord what a brilliant movie was that. I remember as a kid I saw this in the cinema, and the suspense in the audience at the moment when that huge AT-AT felt down! This kind of moments are gone in todays cinema, that you are in your chair and think 'my God!!! did you saw that?!!'. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" />Ok, the last one for now. Does anyone remember this.. The Dark Crystal, an all puppet movie by Jim Henson, loved it! And this is still a great movie for kids, so well made.[MEDIA=youtube]SpIoPQHYhrw[/MEDIA]</blockquote>
