Definitely always has been a guilty pleasure of mine watching Slater ride his super-chrome-board in the end. Congrats on 800!

I remember the brief "making of" feature they showed about the film. It featured Slater on a giant skateboard that was just out of camera view so he wouldn't fall off. Hilarious. HBO always had the best behind the scenes stuff.<br /><br />Congrats on the big 8-0-0! A perfect movie to celebrate with. Here's to 800 more!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32065576.post-27775587071151260072013-06-12T18:53:50.616-04:002013-06-12T18:53:50.616-04:00Slater was great in this.

It was cool to see back on the big screen in Bullet To The Head with Sly. He needs another killer comeback role ala Mickey Rourke in the Wrestler. <br /><br />Thanks! We really appreciate that about the 800th review.

As you say it's an overload of cool fashions, music, and ludicrous plotting that was only successfully pulled off in the 80s. Slater really made some gold in the late 80s and early 90s and it's a shame his career has got so off track. He really deserves a career revival because he's got great charisma.<br /><br />Oh, and congratulations on your 800th review. A great achievement.Exploding Helicopterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16045345937871417288noreply@blogger.com
