Fantastic clue for Red Dawn! An unintentionally hilarious movie if there ever was one.

I joked about it before in the comments section but that one also really deserves a place in the above-linked quiz.

and it's even more stupid for the remake when they cast North Korea (due to marketing reasons not China) in the role of bad guy. North Korea probably couldn't take over Canada.

It had the only realistic explosion in the distance scene I remember in movie history. Then some geniuses must've "cleaned it up" so that you can hear the explosion a mile away immediately instead of obviously later.

Rocky was not at all a petty thug. He was a working class guy working hard to improve his station in life.

Rush Hour is a FANTASTIC movie. I will fight anyone who says otherwise. Remember the scene where Chris Tucker teaches Jackie Chan to sing War - good God y'all?

I shortcut that one with predictive "Indiana Jones" and it worked on a "starts with R" quiz. So much for my shortcut after typing this.

It wasn't when it was made. Only after they made the others, it was renamed. Similar to how Star Wars was just "A New Hope" before the other movies were made.

I think you got that backwards. A New Hope was just called Star Wars when it first came out. Otherwise the franchise would probably be called A New Hope.

How can only 52% have guessed 'Rebel Without a Cause'? The clue virtually hands it to you on a platter.

I've only seen 3 of these movies (the first two, and The Ring - which I constantly get confused with Juon/TheGrudge), and that's all I care to see. Nothing else here interests me.

In my opinion, four of these movies are great (Raiders, Reservoir Dogs, RoboCop, and Rocky). Rain Man was okay. Rush Hour had some fun moments, but I didn't think it was that funny overall. Revenge of the Nerds hasn't aged well at all. Rango was good. The Ring was fine. Rambo was dumb, but still somewhat enjoyable. Red Dawn was also dumb. Rudy was fine for what it was. And Road House was not very good. I haven't seen the rest.

Most of these movies are not among my favorites, either, and those that I haven't seen I have no interest in, but I've seen all or part of 14 of these.

Revenge of the Nerds is such a great name for a movie...maybe I should watch it

I kind of liked Rebel Without A Cause, but it is also such a silly and ridiculous movie. Two teenagers drive perfectly good cars off a cliff for no reason, the bad guy dies, then that guy's girlfriend becomes James Dean's girlfriend within like a day.

7/18 are from the 80's with another 5 from the 90's, so the quiz ends up being a bit limited in scope. I think it reflects the quizmaster's personal tastes a bit much.
