    Would have gone with Batman Returns too. It's just so dark and kinky.

    Mad Max 2. Absolutely one of the best action movies of all time and everything is done for real and in camera.

    The Empire Strikes Back. Not a star wars fan boy, but a brilliant sequel. Darker and deeper than the first film.

    Oh, A Mel Gibson derby:

    Mad Max II - such a great film
    The Empire Strikes Back - my nomination

    2025 gigs: Selofan, Alison Moyet, Wardruna, Gavin Friday, Orla Gartland, The Courettes, Nine Inch Nails, Rhiannon Giddens, New Purple Celebration, Nova Twins

    Mad Max II

    The Colour of Money ; which I haven't seen, but it has to be better than the core Star Wars movies (Rogue One and The Madalorian are genuinely good, it's mainly the Skywalker Saga that I can't stand)

    A film you haven't seen over Empire?

    Ah heyor!

    Not sure if I've seen The Colour of Money, think I have, but either way, better than Star Wars.

    Yeah, that's how much I hate the Skywalker Saga (I've seen Episode 1-8 all once, so I gave them a fair shot/was dragged along to a few of those by my mates). The greater Star Wars world is fairly decent from what I've seen.

    Like I say, I'm not a major fan of Star Wars, but I can't overlook the qualities of Empire.

    It set the standard for blockbuster sequels, enormously influential film in movie history, broadened out and enriched the mythos of the world. It has a grim and sombre tone that gives weight to the action. And that climax with Luke and Vader is one of the best movie sequences of all time.

    The Colour of Money is an okay movie about lads playing pool.

    Absolutely no comparison in any way.

    The Return of the Pink Panther
    I'm a long way from a Star Wars fan boy, but Last Jedi made me angry

    Back to the Future 2
    Better than the original...? Maybe
    Whereas DKR is the weakest of the trilogy

    I like pool. That actually sounds a thousand times more appealing than Empire.
