Rambo: First Blood Part II (George P Cosmatos, 1985)

167 - We are back with the latest episode in our 'Lat Pack: Past & Present' mini-series, and boy this is the big one. The prototype. The blueprint. It's RAMBO. We dive deep into the history of the character, and the franchise, but more importantly break down just where this fits in the evolution of the 'Lat Pack' action genre. Did this define a genre all its own? Or do we need to look at other 1985 heavy hitters, Commando and Rocky IV?

Terminator: Dark Fate (Tim Miller, 2019)
