I don't even bother with new movies anymore since they are so crappy and full of liberal Hollywood drivel (with the exceptions of 'Ghost Rider' and 'Wolverine,' which I liked because I'm a fan of the characters). Instead, my most recent purchase was the largely ignored but totally cool 1980 film, 'The Final Countdown,' which I loved as a kid.

Even though the insufferable Martin Sheen was in it, that WAS a great movie.

Oh! I didn’t know that was available. Cool, thanks for that post!

That was a good movie, and very realistic as far as the Navy goes. I had a recruiting partner one time who was in the movie as an extra.

That was one of my favorites and my kids both liked it as well!

I went to see a double feature (remember those?) one weekend and as a bonus, I was introduced to Somewhere in Time, presumably a chick-flick, which is now another of my favorites.
As I recall, it was many years before The Final Countdown was available on DVD. The F-14 flying and accompanying musical score were awesome!
