I am along that line, though am a late bloomer when it comes to NT. He came changed lots of things for me when I look back, and also because of him, my love for Kamal and Rajini was never compromised.

Actually, many of the ordinary films I liked back in those days are still more like guilty pleasures than the "வெக்கப் படறேன், வேதனைப் படறேன், வருத்தப் படறேன்" kind to me.

Not embarassing, but continuity. When Sarath Babu's allakai calls on Kali who's busy shaving, less than half of his face would have foam. When he arrives at Sarath's place (ippave varasoneggalame), only a small portion of the foam shaved off.

And the drunk after hitting the sister scene, he'd ask her, "Valikuthama?" gesturing that he slapped her. Actually all he did was to push the tiffin carrier away.

Well, NT too got inducted in the long list of hero/ine waiting for lover after the latter's jail sentence. His own son was inducted in Ulavan :roll: And I love both films :wink: Both of their scenes didn't involve train, so estra mark :P

Edit. Wait. I'm wrong. Got train :(

And there was a bunch of revenge films in the 80s, by Prabhu, Karthik and VK pre-86. I still remember villain Radha Ravi's dialogue, "avan namma kathave udaikkira munnadi, naama avan kathava udaikkanum!"

I saw one of it recently, Adhisaya Piravikal....Jeezz....how the heck did I enjoy them :oops:

Another film from my favorite list is "Kaathalukku Mariyaathai". I still don't how I appreciated that film that time, watching many times. Recently when I watched, I did not have the same enthu I watched when I was in 20's.

The plot itself is not convincing and looked amateur to me now, both Vijay and Shalini were bonded with their family, but somehow they love each other, as if someone forced them to love, absolutely 0% chemistry between them. Over senti movie with no one lived to that role, only acted. For me, the movie was very artificial and very cinematic. Only saving grace is IR music.

Ithela enna comedyna, when I went to Mumbai as I got placement there at that time, I was surprised to see the Hindi version of this film named "Doli Saja Ke Rakhna" directed by Priyadarshan. I even recommended this film and took some of my Marati friends for this film. Again only saving grace is ARR.

Yes I agree, it was a good movie at that time, may be I am getting older to appreciate it now. There were few other love theme movies which came during 90's also fall under this category, they were hit at that time, but not evergreen.
When I read my post again, I felt I was harsh, so edited now. Sorry, if my post hurt anyone.

True..
Kaadhalukku mariyaadhai hasnt aged well at all as a film.
Except for climax and songs, one might as well run the tape, go for a lengthy dhum or canteen session and join just in time for Manivannan sequences to come and offcourse - The climax.
Another movie that hasnt aged well for me is MaappiLLai. I was crazy abt this movie when it was released. On a subsequent revisit, I was like "Aiyye idhukkaa"..
