Up? Another money-printing pixar typical 'old man who hates kids spends time with kid, then come to like them as kid learns valuable life lessons'. Pfft.

Haven't seen Zombieland - yet another goreporn with bursts of comedic goodness but mostly bogged down in the gutters of pop culture.

Matrix - what a load of crap. Unrealistic plot. Washed up actors/actresses giving it one more go. Arrogant neo-religious overtones meant to guide viewer through a cascade of emotional discovery, but crashing several times on the way. Modern reinterpretation of the bible - if you don't see that you're a maroon.

The Princess Bride? Great movie - for teenybopper girls (actually, I've never seen it, or Lawrence of Arabia).

Casablanca - gimme a break. The black & white just oozes pretension. That ending? C'mon - mysterious doesn't always equal good.

The Godfather? Glamourizing organized crime while simultaneously annoying my ears with that wheezy voice on Brando. Try some Halls ferchristsake!

>> ^Throbbin:
I like the Matrix Trilogy. All 3 of the movies were entertaining and fun.
I challenge internet-movie-nerd-ragers to list a single movie that didn't suck balls in their opinion (no porn allowed). A single movie. Then the rest of us can take pot shots at it.


The Princess Bride, Lawrence of Arabia, Casablanca, and the Godfather! And because maybe that's not really fair, here are some movies that it's okay to dislike: Predator, Conan the Barbarian, the Shawshank Redemption.

The movie was great and certainly as good as the comic. You should keep your pipe in when you haven't seen it, because really, you were wrong.

>> ^budzos:
The retards are the ones making the movie. I can see that was not clear.
300 was a comic book designed by Frank Miller to be "cinematic." Same with Sin City. So those properties don't suffer for the adaptation (even though I resent the making of Sin City as well). Spider Man, Superman, etc.. are all part of a greater mythology and have been multi-media more than twice most of our ages. The rest of the adaptations are just "comic book bullshit" and it doesn't matter what happens with it because it's nonsense thought up by nerdy fuckheads in their teens and twenties for the most part.
Watchmen was expressly designed to be the nexus of everything that comic books have been and could be. To anyone who cares, 300 is to Watchmen as Commando is to Casablanca. The story is fantastic and the story will translate well, but it's about the MEDIUM and what can be done with it.
I don't care about the changes. To be honest I'm sure the movie will be great, probably the best comic book adaptaion of all time. I'll be there opening day. That doesn't change the fact that I wish they weren't making it, so that more people would end up READING Watchmen rather than WATCHING it. They could make the most perfect adaptation of all time and I'd still resent the concept of a Watchmen movie.
The "Citizen Kane" parallel is not made lightly. Seeing Watchmen without having read the comic is just like reading Citizen Kane the comic book. It's not the experience the author intended. It's adulterated.

If you get around to watching it, lemme know what'cha think. You may get a kick out of Jullianne Moore's role.

Sam Rockwell is the shit! Anyone that plays Zaphod Beeblebrox is cool in my book. Though my favorite role of his has gotta be Chuck Barris in Confessions of a Dangerous Mind -- Love that movie sooo much. Which brings to mind a genius writer (Charlie Kaufman) and an actor/director who is both over and underrated: George Clooney. I love half of his work (inevitably the underrated stuff) and the other half I could do without.

Diane Keaton, Nicholas Cage, Meg Ryan, Tom Hanks, etc. etc. Don't do it for me either. Though Cage Occasionally gets it right. (Or maybe it's the writers.) Mel, Mel, Mel -- what scares me about him is that his true personality may be Martin Riggs, but with a touch of the religious zealot. Definitely not a good combination. I would be careful not to harm his dog.

Favorite actors... Oh my, where to begin. So many decades of cinema to recall! To avoid a carbon copy of your list -- all noteworthy thesbians -- I'll fill in some of the missing pieces: The Marx Brothers (I love them all equally), Hepburn's flame, Spencer Tracy, the other Hepburn, Audrey (mostly because of those eyes), Cary Grant, Humprey Bogart (Casablanca and The Maltese Falcon are films that I can watch from any point and be satisfied completely for every second the films goes by), Lauren Bacall (Ze Big Sleep; dear lordy, more top ten material), Clark Gable, Gary Oldman (You said it, but he's too good and far too underappreciated to not mention), Helena Bonham Carter (another one I CANNOT avoid mentioning -- a dark favorite of mine: Morgan le Fay, Elizabeth Frankenstein, Ophelia, Anne Boleyn -- dear GOD, she's a even a freakin' death eater. She has to be a reader.), Elliot Gould (More noir favorites), Michael Gambon (brilliant), Alan Rickman, Edward Norton, Tim Roth, Brad Pitt, lil' Dakota Fanning, Kyle MacLachlan, Isabella Rossellini, and Dennis Hopper -- I think that's the cast of Blue Velvet, another potential top ten movie with top ten actors lol. Maybe we should make lists of the people we DON'T like... on second thought... (Sorry, this got long.)

Yes! Mothersbaugh, of course. Wes Anderson's pocket composer and devolution advocate. Don't forget Sigur Ros, either. That's the part of the movie where yer supposed to cry. I heart those Icelanders. A Bowie fan too. David Bowie is my best friend's father.

Make up a top 5 real quick. (No pressure.)

In reply to this comment by thepinky:
You're right. I have about 15 or so that are floating around in my favorites list. My top movies are not neccesarily the best ones I've seen. Like you said, they are the ones that I have an emotional connection to.

Wes Anderson is awesome but I haven't seen all of his films yet. My favorite so far is also The Life Aquatic. I love those covers. The Mark Mothersbaugh numbers are awesome, too. The scene where Steve introduces his boat and crew, accompanied by Mothersbaugh's "Let Me Tell You About My Boat" is one of my favorite scenes. I also really liked The Royal Tenenbaums.

Oh, underappreciated and overrated actors. It is relatively easy for me to rattle off some of my favorite actors. Paul Newman, Marlon Brando, and Ingrid Bergman are definitely in the top 5. Other actors I love off of the top of my head: Gary Oldman, Anjelica Huston, Gregory Peck, Katharine Hepburn, Bruce Willis (most people love him for the wrong reasons), Bill Murray, Charlie Chaplin, Helena Bonham Carter (I love how much her older stuff contrasts with her more recent roles. She's great.), John Goodman (I have always had a thing for this guy. He is a pleasure to watch.), James Stewart, Topol (I've only seen him in Fiddler but it is one of my favorite performances EVAR), Henry Fonda, Peter Sellers, George C. Scott, Oliver Reed. This list was about 5 times as long before I cut it down. You're welcome.

I'm sure you're the same way that I am with actors. Sometimes I love them because they are truly great actors and sometimes I love them because they are good actors and you just enjoy watching them for whatever reason. I admit that one of the reasons that I love Newman, Brando, and Bergman is because they are all incredibly sexy. They also happen to be exceptional actors. Who are your favorites?

Severely overrated: Meg Ryan, Diane Keaton (used to be okay, now I can't stand her), Nicolas Cage (liked him in Matchstick Men...which reminds me that I love Sam Rockwell), Keira Knightly, and there is something about Mel Gibson's acting that seems...is it insincere? Affected? All I know is that something is off with him and I'm not a fan.

I'll rent The Big Lebowski one of these days.

Here is a funny review of the film.

Also the following from VicSarjoo at Amazon.com...

Extremely reminiscent of cold war sleepers like "Gorky Park" and "Reds", Gymkata is one of the most carefully scripted and brooding commentaries on American foreign policy during the Reagan years. The film is more like a documentary than a work of fiction in its deep attention to historical accuracies and avoidance of hyperbole.

Robert Clouse's directorial adaption of Dan Tyler Moore's Pulitzer-shortlisted novel manages to capture timbre of the times and the voice of the decade in a script of intricate complexity. Kurt Thomas's portrayal of the hero across from Tetchie Agbayani's heroine is one of the most dynamic and surprising chemistries since Bogart and Bergman's 43 years before.

However, where "Casablanca" fell far short of documenting the spirit (and fears) of the times on a granular level, Gymkata and its cast is unafraid to take this plunge.

In characterizations deeply respectful, and yet photo-accurate, regarding world cultures and global motifs, Gymkata manages spell the poly-sided views of complex conflicts that occurred during the final grey gasps of the Cold War.

Amazingly Gymkata manages a foreshadowing the rise of the Neo-Cons some 20 years later in its depictions of the United States use of aggression in strategically important hotspot regions -- and as well -- the film is able to show that the nationalistic concerns of the competing sovreignties (both ally & foe) remain unchanged despite which decade these events play themselves out in.

A timeless film, Gymkata should be a core film study in every graduate level political science class.

The list as it's presented in this video is not complete. Quotes in ranks 62, 49, 46, 43, 27, 23, 7, 6, and 4 were omitted.

Those quotes and the movies they are taken from as listed on AFI's web page (http://www.afi.com/tvevents/100years/quotes.aspx) are as follows:

#62 - "What a dump." -- Beyond the Forest
#49 - "It's alive! It's alive!" -- Frankenstein
#46 - "Oh, Jerry, don't let's ask for the moon. We have the stars" -- Now, Voyager
#43 - "We'll always have Paris." -- Casablanca
#27 - "I'm walking here! I'm walking here!" -- Midnight Cowboy
#23 - "There's no place like home." -- Wizard of Oz
#7 - "All right, Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my close-up." -- Sunset Blvd.
#6 - "Go ahead, make my day." -- Sudden Impact
#4 - "Toto, I've got a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore." -- Wizard of Oz

I didn't know that that particular Dirty Harry movie's title was actually called Sudden Impact.

I hate this movie with every fiber of my being. One doesn't fuck with classics. It's like going and remaking Casablanca with Ben Affleck to me.
