  1. Christ that scene... There are only two movies that have ever given me a migraine that made me nauseous enough to leave a movie theater: Quantum of Solace and Silent Hill. I guess it shows you how long it's been since I've seen Quantum of Solace (opening weekend in theater), but I remember that chase scene being the best part of the film. I wouldn't call it the best part, but it is pretty damn good. I don't get all of the flack, especially when it is coming from dudes a couple of decades younger than I am, and you would think they would be used to rapid-fire editing. I haven't any issues with following that scene.
  2. Mark Hamill in Star Wars. C'mon, you know it's true.
  3. When Harley Race was doing it, you got KTFO. Of course it hurts your head.
  4. Damn straight. Even when Geoff Johns wrote a 8 year epic story, he still never managed to make Jordan even slightly resemble a 3 dimensional character. Denny O'Neil once admitted that the biggest problem with Jordan is that he has no personality. Such a useless fucking character. Just a block of wood with a ring. And yet Denny somehow pulled it off in some of the best stories ever written.
  5. Hater. I would be all about an Alan Scott GL, though. .
  6. I'll give you Guy. Beyond that, you're full of shit...I mean that in the nicest way possible. Kids these days! Why, when I was young, we'd walk uphill five miles in the snow to get to the 7-11 to grab a Hal Jordan GL off of the good ol' comic book rack. Who in the hell would do that for Kyle? Me? If I'm going to be completely honest about it, I really went through all of that for Bruce & Clark, and Kamandi. I'd get the Hal book if I had a spare quarter.

  8. I haven't seen this since it came out on video, so I was glad this was the 1st pick. I had forgotten how gory parts of it were. Undoubtedly freaked out a lot of parents back in the day. I agree with Control about Dick Jones. He loses a lot of his menace when he turns out to be just another rich guy who hires someone else to do his dirty work and he is a little too easily outsmarted by our hero. I love Nancy Allen in everything up to this movie, but she isn't good here. It doesn't help that when we meet Lewis, she is presented as a bad ass cop, and then she proceeds to be a complete fuck-up who is constantly exposing herself to danger and seems about as coordinated as the Great Khali in a step class. All that aside, this is a really good film. Weller is fantastic. You really feel for Robocop's dilemma. Clarence Boddicker and co. make great villains. I wouldn't rate this above Total Recall but this holds up really well and I will probably get around to the sequels, which I've never seen.
  9. I would stock my fridge full of bacon hummus.
  10. Poppycock! All of the greats have black marks on their records. I don't know that Ed Harris is All-Time, but he has a list of performances that would do any actor proud.
  11. The Duke smokes half the names already mentioned.
  12. All of those. Add Peter Cushing.
  13. Peter O'Toole, Alec Guinness
  14. Didn't feel like handling results and shit like that anymore. Plus, he only watched MMA here and there before the board went down anyway. Thats because there were so many cards where it was just 'some dudes' fighting. Olivier, bitches!!!!!! I don't care if you don't like old men or stagey acting. Jimmy Stewert, Sidney Poitier, Harvey Keitel.
  15. NO! I can only imagine what you mofos wiil do to Mary Poppinsl
  16. Hopefully Randy teaches her a good sprawl.
  17. I'm 5 eps into Orphan Black and I can say that it is helping me with my post- Breaking Bad blues.
  18. Jesus, can't we just enjoy the classics without having to impose today's tech/politics/hindsight upon them?
  19. She'll forever be Holly Body to me.
  20. That is a great movie when you are like, 12 years old. Indeed. Not sure it's her acting, but... I enjoy her in it. Her and her clingy white slip made a great team.

  22. My favorite Basinger film is that awesome Urban Cowboy rip-off, Hard Country. Haven't liked her in much since.
