better off dead is so classic
― latebloomer, Thursday, 14 June 2007 16:01 (sixteen years ago) link
yeah that is completely 100% true

Tough call since he's been there for me at crucial moments... Better off Dead: adolescent angst + comedy + Van Halen + claymation Say Anything: Teenage Torture - comedy + Ione Skye Grosse Point Blank: coming to terms with adulthood angst + comedy + bloody murder = Grosse Point Blank is the winner here.

killing Dan Aykroyd w/ a TV set has to be worth something

the commercials for the new thing he's in where he's looking for his dead daughter in a ghost hotel room where samuel l jackson is the concierge are just like god man what's going on with you

he is playing an Iraq-war widower in a Sundance weeper later this year. so, SERIOUS.

I really like him and enjoy a ton of this stuff but the best actual film is easily Bullets Over Broadway
― Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 14 June 2007 16:24 (sixteen years ago) link
too obv a "Woody wants to kill Mia" movie

Wherefore art Sure Thing, the movie where my stupid, not-nearly-ready-for-fatherhood, 20 year old dad got the idea to name me Nick.
YES, MY CHRISTIAN NAME COMES FROM SOMETHING THAT CAME OUT OF JOHN CUSACK'S MOUTH IN A ROADTRIP FILM.

In response, I'd like to point out that "Better Off Dead" has a CLAYMATION HAMBURGER. Singing a VAN HALEN SONG. And the fat kid from "Head of the Class." Game, set, match.

Me too.

also neglected in poll: that "My Pal Hitler" flick in which Cusack is woefully miscast
― latebloomer, Thursday, 14 June 2007 16:50 (sixteen years ago) link
We are, but I don't care. I love it.

Grosse Point Blank is awesome for the reference to Better Off Dead
― Catsupppppppppppppp dude 茄蕃, Thursday, 14 June 2007 17:03 (sixteen years ago) link
I voted based on CST (Cusack Screen Time). Hence, my vote went to Stand By Me.
(16 Candles could've got my vote, too, but the CST is negated by the AMHST.)
― Pleasant Plains, Thursday, 14 June 2007 17:38 (sixteen years ago) link
your pathetic attempts at subtly manipulating every poll result are really starting to grate on me.
― deeznuts, Thursday, 14 June 2007 17:50 (sixteen years ago) link
i voted GPB because the idea of Cusack as this hardened hitman guy is so ludicrous/genius.

what are you talking about, it's like the second or third worst movie mentioned on this thread!

"Identity" is a lump of crap if I've ever seen one, Dan.

Runaway Jury at least makes sense in the end. "It was all in his head" should be punishable by law.
― kenan, Thursday, 14 June 2007 18:35 (sixteen years ago) link
"Identity" makes sense in the end, too! It's basically "The Cell" done right.

(At any rate, if you pay attention you figure out what's going on way befire the big reveal.)

oh, well in that case, i'll run right out and get it.

Went for GPB. I fucking love that movie.

I've never gotten the GPB love - is Cusack supposed to be believable as a hitman...?

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

It doesnt matter that he isnt! I just find the film really fun and funny. Esp the dialogue between Cusack and his shrink.
― Trayce, Thursday, 14 June 2007 23:09 (sixteen years ago) link
I mean it's hardly Heat or some shit.

Grosse Pointe Blank for that scene with Jeremy Piven, when he learns that a classmate's now working at a Pizza Hut: "Mm. Let's not go there."

the awesomest part of gpb=the part where akroyd is chasing cusack in the cars and cusack starts rambling something about how he can't go through with the whole thing because he is in love and it is a life-changing experience and then it cuts to akroyd saying the exact same line.
