bacardimayne Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) Everyone knows about the concept of dadrock when it comes to music, but does anyone else feel like it exists in movies too?Some movies I consider dadrock:Indiana JonesThe WarriorsThe GooniesTop GunRocky IVBasically, 60s-80s movies that dads tell you are the shit but they're really just bad-ok.

magisme Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 I'm with you on everything but Indiana Jones. Indiana Jones is the shit. @ "if Aerosmith was a movie" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bacardimayne Posted September 8, 2013 Author Share Posted September 8, 2013 I'm with you on everything but Indiana Jones. Indiana Jones is the shit. @ "if Aerosmith was a movie"Raiders and Crusade definitely stand out over the rest of the shit on my list, but they're still not as good as they get made out to be. Temple is utter shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magisme Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Temple is awful. I really enjoy Raiders and Crusade. I'm not saying they're all-time movies, but they're a lot of fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bacardimayne Posted September 8, 2013 Author Share Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) I'm still trying to keep to the context of "movies people from the specific era talk up like they're the greatest thing ever but they aren't that good and no one outside of that era really cares about them".
