There are two versions of Mel's PAYBACK, and both are worth watching. The orig Theatrical Release is "Mel's" while the Director's Cut is NOT - it was the original version and Mel objected to that version, so he had it re-written, re-film and released as The Theatrical version. But the differences are interesting and ;both are action'ers about criminals doing each other dirty.

And hey, I was in my 20s in then, living the life, but the 90s was the head-up-the-butt decade and the 80s was the conscious decision to insert it up there.

Mel Gibson is from New York, his family moved to Australia when he was a young teen. He did start his career though.

Mel Gibson isn't a name often heard for top-notch acting. To see him truly act, check out the little known movie "Hamlet" from about 1990. In this movie version of the play by Shakespeare, he portrays Hamlet. The film is very good and far more realistic in the time period than other movie versions. It also has a great cast in Glenn Close, Ian Holm, Helena Bonham Carter, all of whom rise to the levels needed for Shakespeare. And TBH, Carter steals every scene she's in

If I am thinking of the same song Cassie was thinking of, that song, "Who wants to live forever", is by Queen and was also featured in 1 of my all-time favorite movies, Highlander. Whenever I hear the words, "Forever Young", I always think of Rod Stewart's song of the same name, which I honestly never knew until just a few years back was actually a remake of an older song. I still remember when I saw this movie back many years ago on VHS about the same time I also saw The Man Without a Face, another movie I think you would both love, but in a different way. I remember both movies made me cry. I forget the reason why, but I never got to see either those movies in theaters when they came out. One thing I appreciated about this movie is how when Gibson's character first woke up, he's freezing and can barely get the words out in his phone call, as opposed to many other sci-fi movies & tv shows where the main lead is thawed out years later, they seem to immediately wake up & adjust quickly to the temperature.

@tictocmelody9190 : More versatile, creative, and prolific -- and at least every bit as compositionally gifted. Plus -- and most important -- a much smarter and more thoughtful *dramatist*, whose scores contained a thematic synergy that Williams scores rarely do. Everything is related, integrated. Not some patchwork quilt of different, sophomoric "cat calls" reinforcing what's already obvious. ("Hey, it's Princess Leia -- play Princess Leia music!") Jerry was the consummate musical storyteller; as FOREVER YOUNG illustrates, a Jerry Goldsmith score would, in Director Steve Miner's words, " take you on a journey." Indeed -- and a richly rewarding one at that.
@TTM96915 ай бұрын
@@doogboh Wow, brilliantly encapsulated, bro. "More versatile" is how you started it and you can say that again. And hey, I love the Close Encounters score, I can't take that away from ole Johnny, brilliant, beautiful work......and Jaws before it, couldn't imagine a better score......but other than that, he's imitation Mahler. I totally agree about "cue the theme music"! Goldsmith is totally in my shortlist of greatest film composers. I love Herrmann, I love Nino Rota, especially his Fellini scores, and Goldsmith is the next name I always cite.
@doogboh5 ай бұрын
@tictocmelody9190 : You mentioned Herrmann -- he's just about the only scorer, at least historically, who I think was even in Jerry's league. I too love the CLOSE ENCOUNTERS score. Very Goldsmithian/Herrmannesque in a number of ways (e.g., thematically focused). STAR WARS was the beginning of the end for Williams. As a one-off it made for an amusing Golden Age homage -- but then JW basically decided to make a career out of regressive scoring, disregarding the sensible advancements that a Herrmann and a Goldsmith produced.

FYI: There was a song called Forever Young by Bob Dylan that came out in the 60's well before the song you are referring to. Speaking of songs: You Are My Sunshine that Elijah sings to his girlfriend is the same song I sang to my mother whenever I visited her in the last month of her life. She always squeezed my hand when I sang it.

Cassie, in case you didn't recognize the black cryogenic doctor in the movie, that was actor Joe Morton, who played Miles Dyson from "Terminator 2: Judgement Day". Dyson was the engineer who created the microchip that acted like the brain function of the Terminator machine. He was the only casualty of the four (T-800, Sarah Connor, & John Connor) that went to Cyberdyne office in the middle of the night.

Mel Gibson did not have a Scottish accent in Braveheart, just a crappy attempt. He was born in Peekskill, New York. His parents moved to Sydney Australia when he was 12. The closest roll he had that he could've had an Australian accent would be Mad Max, The Road Warrior, & Gallipoli.

And "The Year Of Living Dangerously", which is the one she'd probably like the most. (It's more of a grown-up movie, though, it's not for people with the tastes of an eleven year old boy. But that's the movie that put Gibson on the map as a serious actor (which lasted about ten minutes, lol). And gasp! It has a woman in it! lol Sigourney Weaver, fantastic performance from her. Linda Hunt got the Oscar for it (for playing a male character, no less). I do love Gallipoli, but I've never been so bored in my life than being 13 or whatever it was, sitting in a movie theatre watching dopey Mad Max. What a vapid decade the 80s were, lol. (We've never left it!)
