Mega64 Movie Club: Point Break

Sorry for the delay on this- we had some delays getting this Movie Club out, and then had some tech difficulties getting Friendimension working. What a week! Anyway, here's this and we'll have some other treats from the vault coming up in the meantime.

Today on Movie Club, we're going surfing! We'd never really watched Point Break as adults, so we wanted to see if it's still worthy of being called a "classic" or whatever. I mean, it has Keanu, how can it fail?? Is it at least better than the remake? Wait... there was a remake? We'll find out in this extra long episode of Mega64 Movie Club!

Next week's episode is GET RICH OR DIE TRYIN'.

The first half of this movie is eerily similar to The Fast and the Furious (2001): Surfing = Car culture Johnny Utah = Brian O'Connor Bodhi = Dom Toretto Tyler = Mia Hell, there are even multiple scenes in which Coronas are being consumed.

The Kathryn Bigelow situation reminds me of Gale Anne Hurd. She was producer on The Abyss and her and Cameron got married before filming and were divorced before the movie even came out. Also Scarlett Johansson's booty at the beginning of Lost in Translation came to mind when thinking of most iconic ass shot.

Not gonna do it. Wouldn't be prudent.

George Harrison decided not to star in Jodorowsky’s The Holy Mountain because of a scene where he would have to wash his ass nude. So that’s my answer for top butt shot in a movie. One so important it was apparently worth losing a Beatle as the main star over lol

Loved this! Also, the dudes haven’t played Cyberpunk 2077, but Keanu’s name is Johnny Silverhand to complete the trifecta.
