Maybe if I understood it, I would've liked it. "Leave my brain alone!!" ~ SpongeBob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They either get the technical stuff all wrong or the plot is shit. Even so, if I’m board I will watch Dropzone or Terminal Velocity if it is on one of the premium channels I get.-Larry Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mountainman 0 #37 December 5, 2001 I have never seen WhiteHouse (err...Casablanca), however I have never heard anything bad about it. I guess those B/W movies don't get me going.

scottbre 0 #40 December 5, 2001 I like how in almost all of the movies Tarentino has done, he plays a minor role that usually gets killed off towards the beginning of the movie.Scott"Can't keep my mind from the circling sky.

mnischalke 0 #41 December 5, 2001 Scott, off subject, but did you ever notice how many Pink Floyd songs have something to do with flying?Interestingmike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scottbre 0 #42 December 5, 2001 Mike,Yea, I have noticed that. In fact I didn't go searching for a quote to put on my signature. I was listening to Momentary Lapse of Reason, and thought, "Hey, that sounds like something a skydiver would say." Turns out it was in a song called Learning to Fly.Incidentally, since this thread is about movies, has anyone seen the movie More?Scott"Can't keep my mind from the circling sky.

Though I don't think he ever killed himself off in one. He was absolutely hilarious in Creepshow."Leave my brain alone!!" ~ SpongeBob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SpeedRacer 1 #46 December 5, 2001 I love most of the movies mentioned above, and I don't think I'd be able to make even a top five list of my favorites.What older movies do people like (i.e., before 1970)??I loved pretty much everything that Humphrey Bogart was ever in. Casa Blanca ruled. So did Treasure of Sierra Madre.Sometimes I'm in the mood for renting a good old John Wayne movie. Anyone here ever seen Big Jake? or Cowboys? or The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence (sp?) with John Wayne and Jimmy Stewart?Speed RacerWhat contemptible scoundrel has stolen the cork from my lunch?!-WC Fields Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
