Make a film with what you got. @Rodriguez had a turtle, a guitar case, and a small town and made a movie about that… El Mariachi! #BrassKnuckleFilms #BKFWarriors #ElMariachi

Tremors (1990) didn’t make much noise in theaters, but it was engineered to last. The script is so tight that every setup pays off, and the Graboids’ rules were designed around budget limits, turning restraint into suspense.
What’s a great movie that completely bombed in theaters but found a cult following later?

Movies should be seen on the biggest screen possible—there’s nothing like the magic of cinema coming to life right in front of you! Every moment feels larger than life and full of endless possibilities. https://t.co/ZNYguMp0YW

James Stewart was not supposed to cry in this scene of It’s a Wonderful Life (1946) Real war experience drove him to tears. He once said, "As I said those words, I felt the loneliness, hopelessness of people who had nowhere to turn. I broke down sobbing.” https://t.co/831BXmGC2L

The Union Station staircase sequence in The Untouchables (1987) is cinema operating at surgical precision. Slow motion, cross-cut tension, every footstep stretched to breaking point. https://t.co/3mQNXJDz6W

Terminator 2 is James Cameron’s best film. It’s not Titanic, it’s not Avatar, and it’s not Aliens- although all amazing films. Oscars be damned, I’m not sure how Cameron could’ve made a better film. Every inch of this movie is perfect- I wouldn’t change a thing. Love to Big Jim.
