Go Bots: Battle of the Rock Lords - Mar 21, 1986

The first and only Go Bots movie, Battle of the Rock Lords, opened 25 years ago today on Mar 21, 1986. Although it opened several months before the original Transformers movie (Aug 8), the latter had been in production for the last two years.

I talk a little bit about the 25th anniversary here.

Double Feature Friday: Charles Bronson and Lee Marvin

I missed Monday, guys, so I'm giving you a double header to conclude Charles Bronson week.  Both movies star Charles Bronson and Lee Marvin.

Here is our first Bronson/Marvin coupling in 1967's The Dirty Dozen, one of the greatest action movies of all time. A no nonsense major (Lee Marvin) recruits a group of military prisoners with life sentences for a suicide mission. The film also stars Ernest Borgnine, Jim Brown, John Cassavetes, George Kennedy and Telly Savalas.

This second ad is for 1981's Death Hunt. This movie was Hollywood's depiction of the largest manhunt in Canadian history.

Other Bronson movies:

- St Ives (1976)
- 10 to Midnight (1983)
- Murphy's Law (1986)

Here's the Dirty Dozen trailer:
