The less said about THUNDERDOME (aka diet Mad Max) the better.

Most quotable Mad Max movie, hands down.

I never got around to watching Age of Adaline, but it sounds like it'd be one you'd recommend.

I don’t think any movie stays perfect. But I do feel like a movie can be “perfect” if you catch it at the very right time in your life. Goonies, Explorers, Aliens, Fight Club, Gummo, The Conversation, Platoon, Evil Dead II, They Live, Das Boot, Natural Born Killers, The Road Warrior, Paralax View, Blade Runner. At some point in my life I think you could find me exclaiming any of those the most perfect movie ever, if only, in some cases, for a day or so, but that is how I believe it goes for “perfect movies”.

It hits you, and it’s wonderful, but eventually, while you still love it, you see more nuance.
