Post So You Think You Know James? [Week 2]

Hi everyone,

After our spectacular failure last week it's a reboot for the franchise :-)

James agreed that we should guess on these three films this week. We are keeping it to three each week as four is significantly more difficult.

First Blood (1982) - March 10th
Last House on the Left (2009) - March 11th
Race To Witch Mountain (2009) - March 12th

This is a very interesting and diverse week. Sly "Rambo" Stallone in one of the defining action movies of the eighties. A remake of an infamous horror movie from the seventies courtesy of the great Wes Craven. Finally Disney and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson teaming up for a dose of family fare that has a nod to the seventies.

As always, the game is closed to entries before James posts the first of the three reviews.

If you're unsure about how the game is played, please read the Rules and Guidelines thread in the competition section

Good luck!
Rob

This is so hard as we are blind on the last two. It's so easy to dump on horror and be gentle on Disney. Hell, LHOTL could be a masterpiece and Dwayne may turn out yet to be the new Olivier :-)

grrr

Last House on the Left is directed by a Greek director (ex actor) so I hope James likes it more than I exect him to.
