The Movie Thread with Basketballfan22 and Zaggahamma

[Honkey_Kong]

Arguably Jeff Bridges best movie. He plays the best stoner ever and Goodman and Buschemi are outstanding as well.

"The Big Lebowski" Official Trailer - YouTube

It's John Goodman that really tied that movie together.

[basketballfan22]

perfect world by eastwood that he starred in was aight

yes tin cup is about golf but nice touch

also not a big Costner fan...was funny seeing him in man of steel I forgot he played the human daddy

Well I do like Clint, so I may have to watch that one. Isn't Russell Crowe in Man of Steel too? Who is he in it?

Lol, sorry; but I am not that knowledgable about superheroes. Zag's answer makes more sense.

Really? I don't mind him. He is definitely bizarre though. I know this is a thread about movies, but that actor is in Boardwalk Empire for those that watch that series. What reasons do you have for not liking him?

[Sgt. Hartman]

Well Gladiator is arguably my favorite movie ever. That is the only movie about gladiators (among other things) that I have ever seen though.

Have you ever been in a Turkish prison?

I don't watch series and/or much tv at all....only thing i'm considering is dexter

seems as if theres too much fluff in tv

I don't like his face mostly

[austinite]

Heat
Braveheart
Wild Bunch
Last of the Mohicans

Michael Mann is the best current director around.

[austinite]

Blazing Saddles

[kelkel]

Heat has been running lately. The shoot out scene on a good surround system is one of the best ever!

[austinite]

Kill Bill. all of em.

[BeastBro66]

These are the some of the best as far as I'm concerned.

Forrest Gump
Pulp Fiction
GoodFella’s
Shawshank Redemption
A Few God Men
Airplane
Something about Mary
Dazed and Confused
National Lampoons Christmas Vacation
Tommy Boy
Super Troopers
Snatch

[basketballfan22]

Lol, like I told austinite, I have not seen Airplane! before. I had to Google your quote. It has gotten pretty good reviews, so I will definitely watch it. I did really enjoy Full Metal Jacket though.

I have never seen Tombstone, but the other two are classics.

Heat
Braveheart
Wild Bunch
Last of the Mohicans
Goonies
The Departed

I loved all of those movies, but I have never seen Wild Bunch. Mann is a good director, but I prefer Nolan and Anderson.

Two of the greatest actors of all time. Heat is a good one.

Kill Bill. all of em.

I know I am in the minority, but the Kill Bill movies are my least favorite from Tarantino.

Really good taste. I like all of those. I just re-watched Snatch.

[basketballfan22]

I know it has been out for a while, but I just watched Lawless. It's a really good movie.

You should be ashamed of yourself! Everything Tarantino is great!!

Lol, I am a huge fan of his. He is a very weird man though.

Agreed! Who would you like to meet? For me it would be Larry David. i think that would be a funny ass meeting.

[basketballfan22]

Agreed! Who would you like to meet? For me it would be Larry David. i think that would be a funny ass meeting.

Out of anyone, or out of only people in the movie/television business? That would be tough, but Larry David would be a great choice. You know how much I love my Seinfeld and Curb, so it would be very entertaining to meet him. I love his type of humor. Have you ever watched Curb Your Enthusiasm?

TV/Movie celebs.

Yeah, curb is friggin hilarious.

[Sgt. Hartman]

Yea that's a good one.

Has nobody mentioned The Usual Suspects?

[basketballfan22]

TV/Movie celebs.

Yeah, curb is friggin hilarious.

Honestly, it would be among Daniel Day-Lewis (probably the greatest actor of all time), Leonardo DiCaprio (he is a very cool person who shares a lot of my same values), Larry David (for the reasons mentioned), or Sofia Vergara (because I am confident she would sleep with me ).

[basketballfan22]

Yea that's a good one.

Has nobody mentioned The Usual Suspects?

Nope, but I really love that movie. I like Kevin Spacey a lot.

[zaggahamma]

i want to see usual suspects too...looked for it on netflix when it was mentioned in another thread they didnt have it and i forgot about it

[basketballfan22]

Damn, you are missing out. So the list for you so far is the following:

1. The Big Lebowski
2. The Usual Suspects

[zaggahamma]

[Hazard]

[austinite]

Yes. And 'Go' !

[basketballfan22]

Don't watch Mama. Absolutely stupid! I knew this movie was going to be dumb, but my sister had rented it anyway.

Yeah, it was a joke. Sadly, it is really rare when horror movies are good. I remember when The Ring came out and I watched it in the theater. I was freaking terrified! Granted, I was a lot younger; but man that shit scared me. Now that I watch it, I think it's stupid.
