To be fair with Balder I didn't know about Dokken until one of my friend's mom mentioned them, and by then I was already graduated from High School. The same thing happened with Jethro Tull. I knew Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, and Iron Maiden, but those I never heard until later on. Maybe that's why I never end up getting into them, but I respect them. |

After another year of waiting, my friend and I finally got back to watching these movies, and we completed the rest of the series in one night. 5 movies are tough to watch in one night, let me tell you. Anyways here's my review of the third movie:
"It has been a while since I last saw the two first Elm Street movies, but I am glad to be back again to finish watching this series and the third movie is often said to be the best of the sequels and for good reasons. In many ways it can be compared to the Aliens franchise, the first movie is a serious horror movie while the sequel is less serious and more action. Dream Warriors moves the franchise into a more comedic tone as it goes more and more over the top, but it works. The kills are very creative and the practical effects do them justice. I love me some "Welcome to prime time bitch" moments. Often sequels rehash the same premise as the original, but Dream Warriors uses a good premise and setting of a hospital where kids having nightmares are supposed to overcome their fear of dreams. This dynamic works very well with the concept of Freddy and I love that. Like in the original, the characters have to cooperate in order to stay alive, which is something that seems important in order to have these movies work well (this is an essential part that is missing in the sequels to this). The only thing I feel like is missing in this film are good characters. None of these ones are outstanding in any way, but they get the job done I guess. The ending was not amazing either, but it was alright. Overall, this was a great sequel, which is a rare occurrence in the horror genre." 3.5/5 Great stuff

5 movies in one night sounds pretty awesome. I don't think I have ever pulled that off.
Challenged accepted.
I actually can't stop watching movies since I got proper surrounds. I moved my fronts to the back, and let me tell you: Whoever said surrounds should not match or keep up with the fronts is completely nuts.
I have the RB-51 II as surrounds now, and the RB-61 II as fronts, so the difference is still acceptable, plus the R-52C in the center makes it all right.
By the way, you can never go wrong with Klipsch. They sound beautiful. I can't stop watching everything as a consequence.

This looks like how I would feel after 5 movies back-to-back. Or at least my brain. |

Haha, me and my buddy did 3 yesterday. Gravity, Birds Of Prey, and IP Man 4. We played some FIFA, and then I was half way through My Best Friend's Wedding when I crashed after 12 beers.

That's some combination of movies. Haha, I didn't even think about that, maybe it was an unconscious strategy to try to make it to five, although I'm always random like that. I have to say Gravity on 3D with 5.1 with 6.5 inches woofers for each channel on a 120 inches screen with fill view was definitely what stole the show. IP Man 4 was definitely cool too, and Birds Of Prey wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be, I actually end up liking it. Then I dislike Julia Roberts role in the other movie, I hope she doesn't win. |
