Are "Tron" and "Judge Dredd" considered "Biker Movies?" | ||
| Hybridmomentspass |
I wouldnt say so. I dont consider a movie to be a biker or motorcycle movie just cause its got some motorcycles in it. like True Lies - theres a bike chase scene and another motorcycle shown....not a bike movie at all. | ||

cult biker film... "Stone" | ||

I liked Harley Davidson & the Marlboro Man. But there's not much that Mickey Rourke's done that I didn't like. If you want a really cracking biker film, I highly recommend "No Limit" starring George Formby, based on the 1935 TT. Turned out nice again. | ||

>>based on the 1935 TT. << Crossed with the Keystone Cops. | ||

>>cult biker film... "Stone" ,< A good pal of mine's old man played the Detective. Had some good riding in it too. But the good guy rode a Norton and the gang rode Kawasaki 900s. The producer had a reason for doing it that way - but wots up wif dat! | ||

Hmmm... No Limit sounds interesting, can't find it on netflix though. | ||
| Whatever |
SATAN !!!!! Stone looks even better than the Born Losers!  | ||

Well I am confused? I have chaps, leather pants and full race leathers. Guess I'm not sure if I am a "Biker" or a "motorcyclist"? | ||
| Mr_grumpy |
Can't you be both? | ||

The absolutely worst biker film was Born Losers, the original Bill Jack film | ||

I just got done watching Cyclone on 'This' channel. Was hoping it was about Buells but it turned out to be some special weapon bike. If I hadn't been exercising I probably would have turned it off. | ||

Where can I get this "Stone". It has a Norton in it, I MUST have it. I asked my sister to get it for me for Christmas and she says she can't find it. A little help? | ||

Thanks, found it there myself. One I can't find at all is a 2011 film called "Fortress". It's about a B-17 mission. I know for a fact it is available in Britain but I can't find it anywhere here. | ||

"Where can I get this "Stone". It has a Norton in it" I rented Stone tonight, and it did have a Norton in it. Edward. And a DeNiro. Good movie  | ||
| Dwardo |
Not only that, but when I saw the trailer, I was sure that it had the same psycho who was The Toecutter in "Mad Max". Sure enough, it's the same guy. That dude should have a part in every biker movie. | ||

My vote for the worst I have ever seen has to be "easy rider" with Fonda,Hopper and Nicholson. Freakin pathetic and whats worse a lot of the older generation love this flick. I just don't get it. I'm an old (45yrs old) stoner and I just can't watch it. It is way to boring. | ||
| 86129squids |
Hmmm- Boliver, if that's your honest opinion, you're definitely in the minority. I've always loved that film, and of course everyone has their own opinions- why should it be "worse" that others appreciate it? My $.02: Up to that point in time, any "biker" films were "bikesploitation" flicks, IIRC it was Hollister and the irresponsible reporting in the print media that always portrayed bikers as bad society. Easy Rider was the first to attempt to take the ethos of a "biker" of that time more seriously. (I'd bet there's a Wiki entry, certainly many cinema studies done on this film...) What "biker' movies do you like, if you don't like Easy Rider? | ||
| Reepicheep |
I thought Easy Rider was stupid as well. But there are a lot of elements of 1970's culture I'll never understand. | ||
| Britchri10 |
Personally, I found the whole of the '70's pretty stupid. It was quite a fun time though! Chris C | ||
| Dwardo |
Yeah,I thought ER was wonderful when I saw it back in the day. I saw it recently, and it was just horrible! Especially the stoner scene in the park or whatever it was. OTOH, Blazing Saddles has worn exceptionally well, but that's another genre, to say the least. | ||
| 86129squids |
+1, Blazing Saddles! Gotta love Mel Brooks, a true genuis! So far this thread is just making me sad there aren't many "good" biker/motorcyclist flicks out there. I didn't really care that much about Ewan McGregor's stuff either... | ||
| Dwardo |
Most "car" movies suck too. I didn't like the original "Vanishing Point" much but the remake that was done in the 90s was really good, I thought. | ||
| 86129squids |
Not exactly a "car" movie, pardon the drift (and the pun), but a GREAT movie was Clint Eastwood's "Gran Torino". Also supposedly his last time in a starring role, highly recommended. | ||
| Scottorious |
the worst one is the one that I want to see but cant.....TT3D closer to the edge. anyone had any luck locating that???? | ||
| Danger_dave |
>>you're definitely in the minority. << You know - I don't know many that still like it. After the opening credits it's very hard going these days. Best biker song ever though. |
