JOHN CUSACK Y

ALL ANSWERS THAT ARE NOT "BETTER OFF DEAD" DISQUALIFIED

it's not your poll.

enn eye see kay you shd puke in yr dads car to show him a thing or 2

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.

also, Booger

i voted for the obvious choice because i am pathetic and lame

Me too.

You knew I would.

we are v sad ladies

also neglected in poll: that "My Pal Hitler" flick in which Cusack is woefully miscast

We are, but I don't care. I love it.

Grosse Point Blank is awesome for the reference to Better Off Dead

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.)

your pathetic attempts at subtly manipulating every poll result are really starting to grate on me.

i voted GPB because the idea of Cusack as this hardened hitman guy is so ludicrous/genius.

Guys Pushing Tin is worse than Serendipity.

Guys "Identity" is awesome.

You have my word that I'll stay the fuck away from the Sexiest Disney Guy poll.

I'm holding out until I see that new movie where he gets the DTs in a hotel room. Sweaty, bloated fun!

Guys "Identity" is awesome.

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

I am talking truth in a sea of nonsense, is what I'm talking about!

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

SOMEONE GOT KILLED BY A DRYER IN "IDENTITY"; A++

Runaway Jury at least makes sense in the end. "It was all in his head" should be punishable by law.

"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.)

It's basically "The Cell" done right.

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

i guessed the "twist" of Identity from the trailer.

but i'm gonna stop dissing movies for the time being. my hatorade reserves are low.

Better Off Dead for me, too.

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.

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."

"Lloyd Dobbler... all right"

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.

one person has mentioned being john malkovitch, ONE FUCKING PERSON. there's either a pernicious backlash at work here or I am a CORNY INDIE FUXX. thing is, the movie is so unrelentingly awesome that i'm perfectly happy to accept the latter.

I wish the hell that the poll poster would actually list ALL the movies. I'd vote for Better Off Dead or for his brief five minutes in Roadside Prophets.

However, The Grifters wins for me.

Hey I love Being John Malkoitch Louis, but sorry, Grosse Point Blank will never ever lose my vote.

Also where is JOAN CUSACK poll k thx

Best line in GPB is by Joan Cusack!

Describing HER high school reunion: "It was as if everyone had suddenly swelled."

I will stick up for "Say Anything..." against a sea of haters but I voted for "Better Off Dead" because it might be the most realistic teen movie of all time. Especially the fact the French girl is obsessed with the LA Dodgers, and the other fact that Cusack wins the ski race against ROY FUCKING STALIN.

That hamburger dancing conjured my teenhood with excellent verisimilitude.

Describing HER high school reunion: "It was as if everyone had suddenly swelled."

Hahaha YES I LOVE THAT LINE. And how she says it too, she has a quirky talk-out-of-one-side-of-mouth thing going on.

ALso, her "ALL RIIIIIIGHT" at the end when she is smashing up the office.

And when John calls her "Sergeant Pepper". God I love that movie.

TAPEHEADS

I love some of Jim Thompson's books, so I have to vote for The Grifters.

cusack on letterman in about five minutes -- WILL YOU BE WATCHING

Ok you want to know that damn truth about why I don't like John Cusack? It's because I have a cat named Dobbler. As in, Lloyd, yes. I did not name this cat, my girlfriend and her hen house named this cat... I had no say. As many times as I explained that this is a girl kitten, they insisted that no, these little tufts of hair clearly indicate a boy. I tried to fight. I tried to say, "You city bitches, I have seen more cat genitalia than you can dream of -- we had tomcats in the barn and kittens squeezed out on the back steps." Nevermind that. It was VERY IMPORTANT to name this cat after a John Cusack character.

So now I have a cat that I cannot rename, that is of course a girl, that is named fucking "Dobbler."
