Yesterday I binge watched all the three Maniac Cop movies in one sitting.
One thing about them, you were never bored. I liked how the second went the Aliens route and expanded on the original rather than making more of the same. Building sympathy for the villain isn't easy but the managed it at least in the second one. The kill scenes are plenty of fun, creative despite their lack of blood and gore. Bruce Campbell made for a believable every man and he certainly lost in the chin department in this one. Robert Davi is a rare treat as the hero, too bad we never got more of it. So many fun appearances from familiar faces to boot.
And last but not least you have the stunts. Can you imagine being forced to run beside an out of control car (beat that F&F)? One thing I'll never understand a stunt man being willing to do it is to be set on fire, let alone for lengthy fight scenes. The 3rd movie weren't the best but the end car chase more than made up for it.
Give me Cordell vs Myers now please.
Now, what to watch next?

The Captain America trilogy is awesome from start to finish. Winter Soldier is the best, but all three are well written.

The four Matt Helm movies (starring Dean Martin) are all great. I mean if you like cheesy American James Bond rip offs from the 60's.
The Silencers
Murderer's Row
The Wrecking Crew
The Ambushers
And if those get you hooked, you can add in two classics starring James Coburn
Our Man Flint
In Like Flint

The Tommy Jarvis trilogy (Friday the 13th parts 4, 5, and 6).
The Candyman trilogy
I've heard good things about the Hatchet trilogy (with a fourth apparently on the way), though I haven't watched it myself.

The Captain America trilogy is awesome from start to finish. Winter Soldier is the best, but all three are well written. Yes watch the Captain America trilogy. And by that I mean "Captain America(1979)", "Captain America II: Death Too Soon(1979)". and "Captain America(1990)."  |

You've also got the Rocky trilogy, I, II, and III. And the Star Trek trilogy, II, III, and IV.

Never having gotten around to seeing it before I just watched the Missing in Action trilogy. In this case I must say the third film was the best, followed by the second, then the first. Though I did watch part 2 first since it was filmed first.
It was fun movies to watch which if par for the course with Cannon movies. Not exactly lots of depth going on here but they seemed to make more of an effort with part 3. The first movie had a kick ass climax but took too long to get there. Out of all the trilogies out there this one had zero continuity, especially with part 3 making the events of the others impossible.
But its Chuck Norris. You want ass-kicking, explosions, stunts, over the top villains whos made for a fiery death and these films have it in spades. It may strain credibility (with the shooting skills of the Vietnamese, how did the US ever lose?) but it never stops being fun.

The Oz Trilogy - The Wizard of Oz, Return to Oz and Oz The Great and Powerful.
I don't care what anybody says, I consider them in continuity with one another.
