When you find one, check the reviews on sites like PCMAG, CNET, or RTINGS. All 4K TV's are not equal. OLED is currently the best technology for 4K TV's you can buy!🙂

      I remember having a discussion with a co-worker who was in their late 50s and they had a position on an issue that was very much implanted there by various institutions let's say. I made a case for the otherside on the matter and she agreed that I was correct. The very next day she was back to her original stance and acted like we never had the discussion. I've come to the conclusion that people either find their own way or stay oblivious.

    Interesting facts about They Live (1988) (1) Carpenter brought real "homeless folks" into the production for several scenes and smaller characters and gave them food as well as paychecks. "I thought that was a pretty classy thing to do," says Piper. (2) The line "I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick ass, and I'm all out of bubble gum" was ad-libbed by Roddy Piper. According to director John Carpenter, Piper had previously written the line in his notebook of potential verbal bits during his wrestling career. He shared the notebook with Carpenter, and they agreed that this particular line fit the character and the film perfectly. Piper went on to use it at a wrestling match. (3) Roddy Piper, being a married man at the time of filming, refused to take his wedding band off. That's why in several scenes you can see a wedding ring. (4) Roddy Piper quit the WWF to make this film. (5) The scene where the police attack and destroy the homeless encampment was difficult for Piper to shoot as it reminded him of similar events he witnessed in his own life. "It was a painful scene for me," he says.

    John Carpenter originally got into filmmaking to make westerns, because that was his passion, ironically he never made an actual western but a lot of his movies could be called contemporary westerns, and this one maybe most of them all. Roddy Pipers name (Nada) being a direct homage to the "Man with no name" from Clint Eastwoods spaghetti westerns.

      We are far from lazy. Mrs Movies has a full time job in the public sector, and I edit a video every day to share with people who enjoy (or don’t enjoy) them. We watch these after putting our two beautiful daughters to bed every night. So time for research outside all that is included in the above is hard to find. Plus I like her to go into something blind without knowing much. Helps for her to try and figure things out on her own.
      If you don’t like our videos fine. But you don’t have to be so negative and disrespectful to us with every comment you give. It’s a little weird how much time you spend commenting about something you apparently don’t like. Try to put positive things into the universe and find things that you do enjoy.

    Hey, Mr. & Mrs.! Great pick! Great reaction! This sci-fi satire is a Carpenter fan favorite!
    This was a condemnation of Reaganomics and capitalism-run-amok but it's still happening today! Star 'Rowdy' Roddy Piper, a former wrestler, called the film a documentary! That's brilliant.
    The protracted fight scene in the alley over the glasses between Roddy Piper and Keith David was famously parodied on "South Park"!
    "I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick ass, and I'm all out of bubble gum." became part of the contemporary lexicon after this movie.
    Keith David is one of those actors who elevates anything he's in. He has such a distinctive rumbling voice. I had the good fortune to run into him at a Broadway show years ago. I was tongue-tied and nervous but he was kind enough to give me his autograph.
    He co-starred with Kurt Russell in Carpenter's "The Thing".
    Meg Foster has the spookiest eyes; a pair of piercing pale blue beauties that look right into your soul.
    Peter Jason, the leader of the cell who runs the Hooverville, appears in 7 John Carpenter films! George "Buck" Flower, the bum turned collaborator, appears in 6.
    Mr. Flower began his career in soft-core porn, became a genre mainstay usually playing bums in scores of films, appeared on dozens of popular TV shows and is best known for his association with John Carpenter. His role as the opportunistic hobo in "They Live!" is probably his best showcase.

    They Live is one of those titles you always remember when you first here it, even if you never watch the movie. It has an ominous quality that sticks with you. But if I had to rename this movie I would go for something simple and straight to the point like, "They Are Here".

    John hired them so they'd get regular meals and some money.
    -The design of the aliens and them being revealed in B&W, are a love letter to B-movies of the 50's.
    -This was John's response to *Reaganomics* and the "trickle down" theory.

    The original short story is called "5:00 In the Morning". The aliens are three-eyed humanoid reptilian called Fascinators.
    I like how about half of the movie is really quiet and dark so you don't really see what's coming next.

    Regarding the discussion topic at the end, I think _They Live_ is a perfect title. It's short, terse, not very expositive, yet it evokes an air of conspiracy, menace, as well as insisting on a fact one expects to be challenged. No matter from what angle you examine it... it's a pretty good fit.

    I think that Roddys greatest (and least appreciated) input on the fight scene was his experience in how to 'sell' the fight. Hollywood could show how to take a punch, throw a punch, but not how to throw a punch while looking like you've taken a few punches before. Also, he knew that two strong, tough characters would NOT collapse like a house of cards only 30sec to a minute into a fight. He knew to pack a lunch, because this is going to take some time.

    We don't need to know all the details of the alien's plans this movie is more about its effective commentary on society and control which as we've seen in recent years was spot on and very prophetic. I think Roddey Piper delivers a better and more compelling performance than many trained actors -especially today's actors. Very clever movie and one of my all time favourites. Far superior to the overblown Matrix. Nada does mean nobody and is essentially making him a modern "Man With No Name." They Live is a great title - wouldn't change it at all.

    Considering he was not a trained actor, Roddy Piper was great in this. Before he died he had a podcast and he had John Carpenter on the podcast. He actually outright asked Carpenter if he ever thought that they live would somehow become a documentary.
    John Carpenter also was joking on Roddy's podcast that he had very successful movies with very low budgets. He made the joke that just wants he had had the chance to have a budget to do whatever he wanted to see how good it could turn out with some actual money involved.
