Heartbreak Ridge (1986). Hard-nosed, hard-living Marine Gunnery Sergeant Tom Highway clashes with his superiors and his ex-wife as he takes command of a spoiled recon platoon with a bad attitude.
One of the reviews here described it as only for the Eastwood faithful, and I feel like that's an accurate description. It's soaked in that Reagan-era jingoistic machismo that makes it eye-wateringly hard to watch at points, and any attempt at - - y'know, any sort of meaningful emotional connection between any of its characters falls pretty flat. Still, some of the insults are genuinely pretty hilarious, so it's got that going for it at least. 3/10.

Rollerball will be released on 4K Ultra HD on November 22 via Scream Factory. The 1975 sci-fi action film is directed by Norman Jewison (The Hurricane, In the Heat of the Night).
William Harrison wrote the scriot, based on his own 1973 short story. James Caan, John Houseman, Maud Adams, John Beck, Moses Gunn, and Ralph Richardson star. The film was remade in 2002.
Special features will be announced at a later date.
In the future, there are no wars. There is no crime. There is only... the game. In a world where ruthless corporations reign supreme, this vicious and barbaric "sport" is the only outlet for the pent-up anger and frustrations of the masses.
Tuned to their televisions, the people watch Rollerball: a brutal mutation of football, motocross, and hockey. Jonathan E. (James Caan) is the champion player – a man too talented for his own good. The Corporation has taken away the woman, Ella (Maud Adams), Jonathon loves, but they can't take away his soul – even if the diabolical corporate head (John Houseman) tells him he better retire... or suffer the old-fashioned way.

Good Times was on at 2 am, I woke up and put on the oldies channel GetTV just for ambient TV noise.
But this episode' scene, "Love Has a Spot On Its Lung Part 2" really hit me hard in the heart.
With my mom's aggressive uterus cancer, her upcoming chemo & radiation.
When Bookmaker said, "Stop planning to die and start planning to live."
You gotta keep saying to yourself every day, "I'm gonna make it. It can't happen to me. I ain't gonna die. I'm gonna live, I'm gonna live."
Small reminders of our goal toward living beyond this cancer comes from unexpected places.

As the barrage of remakes, reboots, and legacy sequels keep reminding us, never underestimate the power of a brand name. A franchise’s most recognisable and distinctive elements can be repurposed and reshaped to fit any mould. Even if the elements are the least bit tangentially related, it could be the inception of something fascinating, if equipped with enough ingenuity. In 1987, equipped with…

Ragtime (1981). A young black pianist becomes embroiled in the lives of an upper-class white family set among the racial tensions, infidelity, violence and other nostalgic events in early 1900s New York City.
It's impossible to argue with the fact that Miloš Forman knew how to make good cinema, but more than that, he really knew how society and culture informed a character's interior life, from their personal conflicts to their relationships to how they navigated the world around them. We saw it in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and Hair, but I think nevermoreso than here, which feels ahead of its time in its nuanced approach to white privilege and the social structures that silence people. Plus the cast is absolutely stacked, I can't believe I didn't know more about this going in. 8/10.
