March 2, 200619 yr Author I think that all people who liked Waterworld, and the moronic speeded-up evolutionary process whereby someone can grow gills in centuries rather than hundreds of thousands of years, should all be "licenced" ... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hrmm... HA, I didn't even realize how stupid that was until you mentioned it. I just thought the dumb part was having more water than currently exists in any form on earth. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.
March 2, 200619 yr Uh.. Dennis Hopper was awesome! Dennis Hopper was never awesome... after Apocalypse Now. 24 "
March 2, 200619 yr Blue Velvet is supposed to be a good Hopper film. Ain't seen it meself but will do at some point. He and Christopher Walken had a good scene together in True Romance. Waterworld was crap because it was long boring and stupid... and Costner was probably trying to convey some preachy message about the environment, which is stupid since evreyone knows that the only way the sea levels will rise is if every toilet on earth was flushed at the same time. Oh and for the Brits - Downfall (Der Untergang) is on C4 tonight.
March 2, 200619 yr Dennis Hopper is one of the finest actors of his generation and he directed Easy Rider. He did go on permanent vacation after Blue Velvet, however. What good movies has he been on in the past 20 years? "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I am Dan Quayle of the Romans. I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands. Heja Sverige!! Everyone should cuffawkle more. The wrench is your friend.
March 2, 200619 yr Yeah, but he was only giving his stock bad guy performance. "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I am Dan Quayle of the Romans. I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands. Heja Sverige!! Everyone should cuffawkle more. The wrench is your friend.
March 2, 200619 yr He was ok in Speed. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Meh. Speed would've been a far better movie if Hopper had actually died in the beginning and Jeff Daniels' character went on to be the real villian.
March 2, 200619 yr Hopper, and old time over the top dopehead hippie gone republican. What's not to like? :cool: DENMARK! It appears that I have not yet found a sig to replace the one about me not being banned... interesting.
March 2, 200619 yr I don't think people hate this movie, but Stalag 17 is one of my favorites. It's funny, but also quite dramatic, and a great P.O.W. movie.
March 2, 200619 yr I enjoyed Waterworld too. Though I wasn't expecting a magnificent scientifically plausible story.
March 2, 200619 yr If you go into a movie not expecting much, it's not hard to find something worthwhile in it. Very rarely do I watch a movie and feel left out, because most movies always land right around my expectations. He had a cool boat, and the action sequences were fun and entertaining IMO. I felt it was much more a comedy than anything else. Cheesy one-liners and all.
March 2, 200619 yr No. It was egregiously bad. OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
March 2, 200619 yr Pearl Harbour. DENMARK! It appears that I have not yet found a sig to replace the one about me not being banned... interesting.
March 2, 200619 yr Geez, you guys go looking for crap, don't you? OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
March 2, 200619 yr Nope. I watched Pearl Harbour with the sole expectation of tearing it a new one. In that sense, I guess I came away satsified :D
March 2, 200619 yr Ditto. :D DENMARK! It appears that I have not yet found a sig to replace the one about me not being banned... interesting.
March 2, 200619 yr Seriously, were Pearl Harbour veterans appalled at that movie? I loved Saving Private Ryan's "big beginning" because it seemed like a decent portrayal of the actual events (according to veterans) of the Omaha landings, and definitely gave me the impression that I would NOT want to be there.
March 2, 200619 yr I don't know any that saw it. It was popular in Japan, though ... OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
March 2, 200619 yr I heard they had to change the ending for Japan, as it was a bit too "Go Go America, Boo Boo Japan" or something.
March 2, 200619 yr I would have thought Tora Tora Tora was more popular in Japan, in that movie the attack on Pearl Harbour actually feels like a Japanese victory, unlike how Jerry managed to turn it around in Pearl. DENMARK! It appears that I have not yet found a sig to replace the one about me not being banned... interesting.
