73 - Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade released in 1989. Either the best or second-best Indiana Jones films. The addition of Sean Connery as his dad was a great choice. Many say this is the final Indiana Jones movie.

72 - Honey, I Shrunk the Kids released in 1989. For a late '80's movie a pretty amazing set of effects. Definitely miss Rick Moranis in movies.
Poster for the film, featuring a grotesque body coming out of a pod, which itself seems to becoming from a spatial anomaly. There are also scenes of rioting around it.
My copy of the film on blu ray.
72. Invasion of the Body Snatchers. This is one of those rare occasions where I like the remake more than the original version of a film. The 1978 Body Snatchers is chilling in a way the original can’t quite match, and has a superb cast. Plus, one of the greatest final shots ever. #365films
Poster for Godzilla, featuring the big G blasting with his radioactive breath.
Art of Godzilla chomping on a building, from the my copy of the Criterion Showa Era boxset.
71. Godzilla. Or Gojira. The original, and (one of) the best Godzilla films. When you compare it to many of the later, sillier films in the series, it’s a real eye-opener. It’s well paced, dark and moody, and superbly done throughout. I need to watch the American version one of these days. #365films

71 - Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure released in 1989. Whoa, we all find out about Keanu Reeves. George Carlin is great too. This is very much a cult classic that improved with age, I think.

70 - Batman released in 1989. The first of the modern superhero films? Continued the amazing growth of Michael Keaton as an actor for the '80's. Almost a decade since Superman flew out as a superhero film. Prince + Danny Elfman! Burton + Keaton + Elfman!

69 - Back to the Future Part II released in 1989. Not as good as the first but expanded upon the idea in interesting ways. Too bad we didn’t get the 2015 it predicted. We got the bad timeline it seems.
Poster for Final Fantasy, featuring Aki stood on some clear water, looking down at the viewer.
My copy of the film on DVD.
70. Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within. I became a huge FF fan in the PS1 era. FFVIII’s FMV cutscenes made me want a Final Fantasy movie. And then one arrived, and while it looked great, it bore no resemblance to the games. There’s some interesting ideas, but it was just a bit of a mess. #365films

68 - Willow released in 1988. 80's fantasy action film with a great Val Kilmer and lots of practical effects and costumes. A rare LucasFilm and MGM combo.

67 - Who Framed Roger Rabbit released in 1988. Best mixing of live action and animation since Mary Poppins. Combining all the Disney and WB cartoons in a single movie, no way! Maybe we will get another one once all IP is owned by one company.
Poster for Blade, featuring Blade posing in front of a red close up of Deacon Frost’s face.
My wife’s copy of Blade on DVD.
69. Blade. This is where the modern Marvel blockbuster starts, and leads us to the MCU, and what comic book movies are today. For better and for worse. Still, in its own right, it’s a great action vampire film, and Wesley Snipes is awesome as Blade. #365films

66 - Scrooged released in 1988. One of my favorite of the Christmas Carol adaptations. It doesn't get as much love as some of the other Christmas classics.

65 - Midnight Run released in 1988. Robert De Niro as a bounty hunter that can never catch a break. Fun action comedy buddy film. I think it is much better than it is given credit for.

Poster for Star Trek VI, featuring Kirk, Spock and McCoy’s faces in a pillar of light, coming out of an explosion as the Enterprise flies passed, dodging fire from two Klingon ships.
67. Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. My second favourite Trek film. Get me in the right mood, I might even say favourite. It’s a magnificent swan song for the TOS crew, with some great effects stuff, and classic Star Trek political commentary. I love it. #365films

64 - License to Drive released in 1988. The Corey's in one of their big '80's comedies. Very much a cheesy '80's teen comedy.
Poster for The Batman, featuring Batman, Riddler, Catwoman and Penguin looming over Bruce Wayne walking away from an on fire Gotham an Batmobile.
66. The Batman. After the rubbish Snyderverse DCU films, getting a good Bat film felt huge. And it wasn’t entirely a return to the Nolan, gritty realism take. Something about The Batman feels heightened to me. I could buy Superman existing in the same world, in a way I couldn’t with Nolan. #365films
Poster for X-Men, featuring a large metallic X opening up to reveal the X-Men behind it.
65. X-Men. The director and one of he writers are awful people, which has taken some of the shine off this movie. But it is a fun film, which introduced some iconic takes on some great characters. Ian McKellan, Patrick Stewart and Hugh Jackman were all perfect casting. #365films
