20 Years Ago Throughout your life, you’re going to have memorable movie-going experiences. Be it something that happens at the theater itself or in the movie (or both), certain nights out just make an indelible impression on you.

20 Years Later: True Lies (1994)

Bill Clark — Tue, 15 Jul 2014 13:05:36 +0000

20 Years Ago It pretty much goes without saying that True Lies encompasses just about everything a thirteen-year-old boy could want in a movie. It has a sense of humor, lots of cartoonishly over-the-top action scenes, and even a racy striptease because, well, it just feels like it. I knew… Continue reading

20 Years Later: Speed (1994)

20 Years Ago Speed was one of my very first “pure” action films. I was thirteen when it came out and was coming up on the age where my parents were warming up to the idea of me seeing R-rated films. I didn’t see it theatrically, but I nearly wore the… Continue reading

20 Years Later: Mrs. Doubtfire (1993)

Bill Clark — Sat, 07 Dec 2013 15:29:32 +0000

20 Years Ago It was a cold and cloudy November day in 1993 when I saw Mrs. Doubtfire. And I was stoked. This movie had been hyped for months and what about it wasn’t worth looking forward to? Robin Williams doing tons of voices and impressions? Check. Robin Williams fooling… Continue reading

20 Years Later: The Fugitive (1993)

Bill Clark — Thu, 14 Nov 2013 23:05:13 +0000

20 Years Ago I saw The Fugitive with a bunch of friends for my twelfth birthday in September of 1993. This is a pivotal time in one’s movie-going life. By age twelve you’re tired of kiddie movies. You’re ready for the big time. No more cartoons and after-school special nonsense;… Continue reading
