Need help with Rambo franchise
Hey guys, I know it’s kinda strange to ask for an action movie fan, but I never saw any Rambo film 😅
So recently decided to make a small marathon through classic action films (esp. Rambo and Mad Max) and want to start with Rambo.
Can you explain me is there any chronological order, or specific details I should know.
And which film is the best I. The franchise
Thanks in advance

"LETHAL WEAPON" (1987) - having not posted for a few days, coming back today with one of my all-time action film favourites. I love it so much. Almost the perfect action film...a brilliant cast, funny/macho dialogue, brilliant score, incredible action set pieces. Assuming plenty of fans here?
Lethal Weapon is a 1987 American action thriller film directed by Richard Donner and written by Shane Black.
Starring Mel Gibson and Danny Glover, the film follows two mismatched LAPD detectives—Martin Riggs (Gibson), a volatile former Special Forces soldier struggling with suicidal impulses after his wife's death, and Roger Murtaugh (Glover), a seasoned homicide sergeant and devoted family man—who are partnered to investigate a young woman's apparent suicide during the Christmas season.
The supporting cast includes Gary Busey, Tom Atkins, Darlene Love, and Mitchell Ryan.
Conceived by then-unknown screenwriter Shane Black as a contemporary urban Western exploring trauma, masculinity, and moral decay in Los Angeles, the film underwent extensive development under producer Joel Silver and was shaped by Donner's emphasis on character dynamics and gallows humour.
Black's script, among the highest-selling speculative scripts of the 1980s, helped redefine the buddy cop genre.

1 of... Who knows. John Wick, Action movies I love.
Decided randomly to start posting my favourite action movies. In Steelbook form.
Starting with John Wick, partly because I love this movie, and I have the photos on hand from a recent Instagram post.
Anyway. Why do I love this? Honestly, it's just awesome. This is what happens when you take a bunch of stuntmen and let them make an action movie.
My only real issue with this movie is that it raised the bar too high. Made me judge other action movies against this. Any time something goes back to hyper fast edits, it just looks bad now.
Anyway, I plan to start posting a bunch of my favourite action movies, only ones I have high end physical releases for. In no particular order.
Incase anyone wonders, this is the Novamedia release.

Yeah it's the Last of the V8's She sucks nitro... with Phase 4 heads! 600 horsepower through the wheels! She's meanness set to music and the bitch is born to run!
Mad Max (1979) The original classic with Mel as Max. This movie was the root of one of the best action franchises in history IMO. First time I saw it was with the original release of The Road Warrior at the drive in, My Dad took me when I was 10. Been a fan ever since.
