positive · AI labelView post →I did not expect a Bon Jovi reference in this week's Boonboomger. I know this is me stretching a bit, but I think they are named that way because one of them look like a cowboy, and the group performed the song "Blaze of Glory", the theme song of Young Guns II, a cowboy movie.

I have also fallen asleep twice in a film - Green Lantern and Young Guns II: Blaze of Glory, which I think is a form of walking out. GL was microsleep drifting, so I still endured most of it.

Still would love a minidoc on how the movie inspired Bon Jovi's "Wanted Dead or Alive" which led to him doing the Young Guns II theme. www.sliceofscifi.com/2023/12/08/r...
neutral · AI labelView post →Young guns is one of those movies that is difficult not to appreciate, even if you are not a fan of this particular genre. I have seen a few different versions of Billy the Kid saga, I have even read about the life of this outlaw. The western genre is one of my favorites, so it is surprising that this is the first time I actually managed to watch the first and second installments of this movie. Time well spent and I would do it again. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
neutral · AI labelView post →...I have no idea what song that is. I should look up its soundtrack! Though for my opinion, the greatest gap between soundtrack quality and movie quality is not the Batman & Robin soundtrack, but the Young Guns II Bon Jovi album.

neutral · AI labelView post →"Young Guns II" has a very intriguing approach when delivering the all too familiar story detailing Billy the Kid's Mexico run - he is joined in this quest for freedom by some members of his gang after he saves them from certain death at the end of a hangman's rope - following a substancial bounty of $1,000 being placed on his head. This film does offer a measure of ambiguity in relation to Billy's eventual fate and after the tale is finally told the journalist's disputed claims are neither…

positive · AI labelView post →Young Guns is far from perfect but is a pretty good movie for pouring one out for Terence Stamp. It’s cut from the same cloth as Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (Young Guns II far more so): of no historical value but a watchable peephole into what we thought was cool in the late 80s and early 90s.
neutral · AI labelView post →It was no The Long Riders, but it was pretty enjoyable. I thought Young Guns II was much better. And you were spot on about getting in new movie posters. Seeing the UPS driver walk in with a couple of those tubes was like it was my birthday.

positive · AI labelView post →So, rather than search for newspaper ads to see when the film was advertised with a rating (which I still might), I found its MPAA number—30645. It’s sandwiched between Young Guns II and The Exorcist III, and right after the latter was Henry & June (which DID get an NC-17 and came out in October).

It stars Emilio Estevez, Kiefer Sutherland, Lou Diamond Phillips, Christian Slater, William Petersen, Alan Ruck, Vigo Mortensen and Balthazar Getty.
