Guston Zimasheen

Hopefully now Daniel and Sam will play "Rise of the Ronin" on Twitch.

Chris Bruneau

WOW! Ronin was one of my choices for the monthly movie poll, but it didnt win. so, I am interested how you 2 chose it, cuz its kinda obscure

Robert Livingood

Ronin! Yes! Who knows the color of the boathouse at Hereford?

Edgar Gonzalez

A FUCKING AWESOME WEEK AHEAD OF US! "Ronin" and "The Raid"!!!!!

EdmanXERO

If you mix them together you get "The Raiden". *does Raiden's laugh*

Keith Brown

Ronin. Hope this will lead you into checking out more films directed by John Frankenheimer ! He did some great classics starting in the sixties into the 2000's .

Brian

The only thing wrong with Ronin is that it was given such an uninteresting name, no one knows about it. The real hidden gem.

Guston Zimasheen

It's basically brown brick with some blue and white, but it's for the local rowing club, not the Special Boat Service OR (Oar) the Special Air Service, for that matter. jk

Smooticus

I have a lot of friends who are surprised that i own it, then they watch it and can't stop talking about it for 2 days

Paul Cox

Yes! The original Manchurian Candidate has been on my TBRS wishlist for a long time.

David Martin

"The Manchurian Candidate" by John Frankenheimer, a great film, and very controversial in its time, would be an excellent choice. Trivia: in a four-year span, Janet Leigh starred in 3 classic films by great directors: "Touch of Evil" (Orson Welles), "Psycho" (Alfred Hitchcock), and "The Manchurian Candidate" (John Frakenheimer). She also found time in that span to give birth to a daughter, Jamie Lee Curtis!

Unfortunately I think they are more likely to react to the 2004 Manchurian Candidate since they are doing a Denzel series. And sadly the 1962 version is unlikely to ever win a thriller poll or an "old" movie poll(feels like Hitchcock is the only old director who gets a lot of votes in those polls). In general most here don't seem partial to older titles(like pre 80s), based on my observation of poll numbers, results etc.

Frankenheimer in the 60s was on an incredible roll - Manchurian Candidate, Seven Days in May, Seconds, Birdman of Alcatraz, and The Train. Christopher McQuarrie screened The Train several times before making Dead Reckoning. Critics have noted its similarities to Die Hard. IMO it was very influential on the modern action film. And would probably get like no votes in an action or war film poll here:)

Robert Livingood

When Frankenheimer was on his game, there were few better. Manchurian Candidate 1962 is a masterpiece!

Robert Livingood

Sadly, I'm sure you're right, and I'd much rather have them skip Manchurian Candidate altogether if 2004 is the only option.

Paul Cox

Welp, I just added Seven Days in May and The Train to my own watchlist (I've seen the others).

Paul Cox

I hope that's not the case. It's not a perfect comparison (because some people regard it positively), but wasting a reaction on Scorsese's Cape Fear remake when the superior-in-every-way original was right there for the taking may have been a lesson learned. I say it's not a perfect comparison because I've never heard or read anyone say anything good at all about the Manchurian Candidate remake lol.
