I love Wrath of Khan and think Montalban was Oscar worthy. Joel is right about the films. The worst, for me, has to be the Star Trek V with Spock's half brother..blechhhBirgithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09439720285857050428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-667410643073985006.post-4713677175046640842020-07-03T11:03:14.089+02:002020-07-03T11:03:14.089+02:00I agree!

As for the even and odd numbered Star Trek movies, it is true, the even numbered are the best of the series.<br /><br />I haven’t seen any of your picks but Moby Dick is one I’ve been wanting to see for a very long time. I want to read the book first though.Sonia Cercahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07313734872038610058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-667410643073985006.post-54878339844772983072020-07-02T22:42:56.029+02:002020-07-02T22:42:56.029+02:00We share a pick with The Wrath of Khan.

It backs up on you unexpectedly and takes a while to shake. Hope you can do that soon!<br /><br />I never saw this version of Hulk. I use to watch the TV show on occasion but was never a big enough fan to go to the theatre to see any version. Especially after all the negative word of mouth on the first. But it certainly is a tongue in groove fit for the theme!<br /><br />DeNiro is great and the craftmanship is superior but I'm with you on finding Raging Bull a trial to watch. <br /><br />There is a theory that every even numbered Star Trek movie is a good one and the odd numbers bad. Of those I've seen that holds true. This one was a fun watch and Montalban was having a high old time in his role. <br /><br />I was tempted to do three with wrath in the title, including your last, but I'd already used Grapes of Wrath and Days of Wrath before so I moved on to literary representations of that sin. <br /><br />Moby Dick (1956)-Captain Ahab (Gregory Peck) is consumed with wrath at Moby Dick, the whale who has caused the loss of his leg. He undertakes a suicidal mission to pursue the beast for a showdown with a crew including Starbuck (Leo Genn), Father Mapple (Orson Welles) and Ishmael (Richard Basehart). When they finally catch up with him the whale seems to have his own score to settle.<br /><br />Othello (1965)-Moorish general Othello (Laurence Olivier) plans to marry Desdemona (Maggie Smith) in secret. When her old suitor Roderigo (Robert Lang) hears of the upcoming nuptials he does not take it well and teams with Othello’s ensign Iago, who has long nursed a wrathful grudge against his superior, and a scheme that will end in tragedy for all unfolds.<br /><br />Oliver! (1968)-In this musical version of Dickens’s Oliver Twist there are immoral characters aplenty but Bill Sikes (Oliver Reed) stands out as the cruelest and the one most prone to lash out in wrathful vengeance that brings grief to others as well as himself. joel65913https://www.blogger.com/profile/14526657073681774683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-667410643073985006.post-3970823603982800372020-07-02T14:16:33.152+02:002020-07-02T14:16:33.152+02:00We match on Raging Bull!
