Escape From LA (1996) - 7/10
Octopussy (1983) - 5.5/10

Beyond Thunderdome is actually the only one of the OT that I actually like. It is the most interesting and the most emotionally absorbing imo. Road Warrior has a better villain and better action, but the characters and screenplay have always bored me to some extent. My favorite Mad Max movie is Fury Road.

I prefer Escape from L.A. over Escape from New York, because it is just more exciting and self-aware. John Carpenter went all in on this movie and it mostly pays off. I have some big issues with some aspects of it, but it is entertaining, bad-ass and funny.

Temple of Doom is just a lot of fun and I love how different it is from the other 3 in the franchise. Memorable villains, great gross-out scenes, great locations and sets, Harrison Ford at his peak physically and charismatically and he has great chemistry with Short Round. The mine chase is my favorite action scene in the franchise and John Williams' score is wonderful. 

Evil Dead 2 perfectly balances horror and comedy and is one of the best in the genre. Bruce Campbell is hilarious here and this is the movie I think of most when I think of Sam Raimi's style. 

Roger Moore's Bond movies are the worst of the franchise after Timothy Dalton's. Octopussy is middle of the road within the Moore Bond movies. Not bad, but not good either. 

The less said about Superman III the better. The first half is dumb and the second half is really boring. Christopher Reeve is still good and the junkyard fight is effective and that is really the only positives about the movie imo.
