oblong Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Cool moment at the Oscars that Kimmel highlighted... 48 years ago these two were both nominated for Taxi Driver. This year they were both nominated again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No a knock on her at all. Loved her in Get Shorty and Tin Cup. But I don’t like movies about subject A that just have to throw in a love story, like another Russo movie, in the line of fire. How else are you gonna keep your girlfriend interested in a baseball movie? 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apropos of nothing, I'm OK with Rene Russo, but her look in general is not my bag. I would rather have seen Jeanne Tripplehorn in the role: similar look, but softer, and easier on my eye.

oblong Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 I like her. A lot. She was the best part of Basic Instinct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biff Mayhem Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Road House. Went in expecting nothing. Did it suck? Surprisingly no. I was entertained. Lots of great humor especially from McGregor which was so over the top. I mean really over the top. Plot was thin (duh). Soundtrack was lacking the charm of the original. Still at the end of it I was entertained and amused because I went in with low expectations. Also: stay through the credits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleterious Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Road House was entertaining enough I guess. The CGI was brutal though and that is always a big turn off for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_Brian_K Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 What the hell did they need CGI in a movie like that for? Did Godzilla make an appearance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMRivdogs Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 There's a new Steve Martin documentary on Apple. I haven't watched it yet but there is a part where he talks about John Candy and TPA Here's the script from the cut scene... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romad1 Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 "Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare" has the worst screen performance of Winston Churchill I think i could have imagined. It also has the most bizonkers portrayal of Churchill's chiefs of staff (people presumably appointed by him) all being appeasers who were ready to give up to Hitler in Jan 1942. That said, its a fun movie if you treat it like a "Sgt Rock" or "Sgt Fury and his Howling Commandos" comic book. And the lady who is in it is the same lady (Eliza Gonzalez) as was Monica/"darling" in Baby Driver so...woof. Basically, leave your history degree at the door and enjoy them killing Nazis.
