I have never seen The Hard Way but I will pick it up. The Secret of My Success is a must own.

When is the pre-orders for these two movies?

This madness began with the VHS. Although, to be fair, I think the "Bang" was Photoshopped onto the original poster... I think they had Photoshop back then... anyway I doubt it was on the gun Michael J. Fox was holding is what I'm trying to say. Wish they had kept the "Bang" though. As silly as it is, losing it kinda ruins the point of the image; to show the contrast of the two characters.

They’re up!

I’m already satisfied with the imports myself.

I watched TSOMS last year with a few people and they had no problem with it-didn't even know it was an import.

Secret of My Success is day one, baby! I wore the hell out of my VHS tape of that.

Excited to see The Hard Way - I've been waiting for a BD release for years. A little underwhelmed by the pre-order pricing on Amazon, though.

I'm not as familiar with TSOMS. Will have to check it out.

Any word on whether this is a new scan for Hard Way?

I just watched The Secret of My Success about three weeks ago. I'll be buying this!

Howard Prescott : Let me get this straight - Brantley is Whitfield?

Brantley Foster : That's right. Brantley is Whitfield; Whitfield is Brantley.

Vera Prescott : And Christy is the bimbo! Well, now that we've all had Mouseketeer roll call, I'm just going to go call my lawyer.

Howard Prescott : [lying] No, wait a minute. Christy is not the bimbo I was screwing around with at the office.

Christy Wills : People better stop calling me bimbo!

Howard Prescott : It was an entirely different bimbo altogether.

Vera Prescott : That's fine; how many bimbos would you say there were?

Howard Prescott : I misspoke myself. There weren't any bimbos at all.

Brantley Foster : Except Christy.

Howard Prescott : Right. No!

-I love this exchange.

BTW, does everybody recognize Cindy Crawford in the opening montage?

CouncilSpectre · 08-20-2020, 08:51 AM

^^ The great Richard Jordan. I wish he'd done more comedy.

COBill · 08-20-2020, 09:22 AM

IMHO, Margaret Whitton was severely underrated as a very sexy actress, both in The Secret of My Success and in Major League.

Taken from us way too soon.

Worth a pick up for someone who enjoys MJF in BTTF?

Definitely. This is Michael J. Fox at his most charismatic.

Same. I like to think of Teen Wolf, SoMS, and BTTF as being the holy trinity of MJF films. Sure, there's also Doc Hollywood and The Hard Way, but these 3 without a doubt.
