human centipede 2 is now avail on dvd fyi

Thu'um gang (jjjusten), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:00 (fourteen years ago)

I'm irritated at myself for not voting in this either. Will probably slash my wrists if a Michael Bay ends up on this list.

Stockhausen's Ekranoplan Quartet (Elvis Telecom), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:06 (fourteen years ago)

Michael Bay movie that is.

Stockhausen's Ekranoplan Quartet (Elvis Telecom), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:08 (fourteen years ago)

imo le samourai is awesome because of how the blocking is central to the story above dialogue or action-y action

it was #5 on my list behind some wishful-thinking write-ins

⚓ (gr8080), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:11 (fourteen years ago)

its almost like watching a jacques tati movie w/ a tiny cast and unease instead of whimsy

⚓ (gr8080), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:13 (fourteen years ago)

I hate Michael Bay almost as much as I love Bad Boys & Bad Boys II, but I have already established that my taste in movies makes no sense.

Unleash the Chang (he did what!) (Austerity Ponies), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:16 (fourteen years ago)

If you haven't seen it Point Blank fits in that mode as well. Might as well put it in your queue before it (better be) is mentioned here.

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:20 (fourteen years ago)

Does this list really have no Kurt Russell so far?

valleys of your mind (mh), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:22 (fourteen years ago)

overboard is a lock for top 15 i think

Critique of Pure Moods (goole), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:22 (fourteen years ago)

no way will that beat the Computer That Wore Tennis Shoes

max buzzword (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:23 (fourteen years ago)

I probably already posted this

that owns

RudolfHitlerFtw (Hungry4Ass), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:27 (fourteen years ago)

save it for when point blank is in the top 10 ^__^

I was hoping that Executive Decision would sneak onto the list somewhere.

Escape from New York!

lol

I have seen that move more times than any one person ever should. It's one of those things that always seemed to be on TV.

wolf kabob (ENBB), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:46 (fourteen years ago)

x-post YES

wolf kabob (ENBB), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:47 (fourteen years ago)

would expect either EFNY or Big Trouble in Little China to place. The Thing is amazing/his best role but dunno if enough people consider it an "action" movie

max buzzword (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:47 (fourteen years ago)

where is Roadhouse going to place

(thinks and smiles) (DJP), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:47 (fourteen years ago)

i voted for for the thing

⚓ (gr8080), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:48 (fourteen years ago)

dodgy Kurt Russell picks I have seen again lately: Soldier

movie that is forgotten since it somehow became a tv franchise: STARGATE

valleys of your mind (mh), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:48 (fourteen years ago)

I just got the sinking feeling I forgot to vote for Roadhouse. Will have to look at my ballot once I get home.

Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:49 (fourteen years ago)

Overboard is hilarious.

White 'Poop' Jesus (snoball), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:50 (fourteen years ago)

after all the results are revealed i want ppl who are familiar with/seen most/all of the movies to rank them in order of most-to-least action-y

⚓ (gr8080), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:50 (fourteen years ago)

Nah, the top placing Kurt Russell pic will be Elvis 2: 3,000 Miles To Graceland.

SNEEZED GOING DOWN STEPS, PAIN WHEN PUTTING SOCKS ON (Deric W. Haircare), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:50 (fourteen years ago)

Just remembered it was still in my gmail...and YES I FORGOT TO VOTE FOR ROADHOUSE.

*loser*

Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:50 (fourteen years ago)

hey guys, work is explosively busy so i won't get a chance to post more until later, which is probably too late for some, so the unveiling schedule is:

25-38 tomorrow
11-24 friday
1-10 monday

hope that's cool and if not, see you in hell *walks away, u smile, smile fades as u see me holding a grenade pin, u look down to see grenade in your underwear*

The Thing is one of my top 10 fav movies of all time but I don't know it's an action movie! I don't think I would have voted for it.

wolf kabob (ENBB), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:54 (fourteen years ago)

If Jaws counts as an action movie ...

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:56 (fourteen years ago)

Yeah well I didn't think that did either!

wolf kabob (ENBB), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:59 (fourteen years ago)

Which means that, yes, The Thing will definitely place which is fine by me because it rules.

wolf kabob (ENBB), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:59 (fourteen years ago)

omar just resolved today's posts with action

Unleash the Chang (he did what!) (Austerity Ponies), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 21:03 (fourteen years ago)

The Thing is one of my top 10 fav movies of all time but I don't know it's an action movie! I don't think I would have voted for it.

Yah, there's definitely some line blurring there. It's also all-time top 10 for me.

Damnit, I could have voted for The Hidden!

Stockhausen's Ekranoplan Quartet (Elvis Telecom), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 21:05 (fourteen years ago)

Also awaiting the arrival of STATHAM

Stockhausen's Ekranoplan Quartet (Elvis Telecom), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 21:06 (fourteen years ago)

lmao sounds good man

RudolfHitlerFtw (Hungry4Ass), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 21:06 (fourteen years ago)

the hidden is great

lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 February 2012 21:06 (fourteen years ago)

The Thing was easy because it meant more Kurt Russel AND more John Carpenter on my list.

Unleash the Chang (he did what!) (Austerity Ponies), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 21:08 (fourteen years ago)

enough problems resolved by flamethrowers and explosives that I was happy to vote for it.

woof, Wednesday, 15 February 2012 21:22 (fourteen years ago)

Hmmmm good point.

wolf kabob (ENBB), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 21:28 (fourteen years ago)

*crosses fingers and hopes people forgot about inglorious basterds*

Thu'um gang (jjjusten), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 21:34 (fourteen years ago)

if you voted for the 70s one though spelled right that is acceptable

Thu'um gang (jjjusten), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 21:35 (fourteen years ago)

Dark of The Sun!!!!!!!!!!!

Mike Love Costume Jewelry on Etsy (C. Grisso/McCain), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 21:37 (fourteen years ago)

I can't imagine anyone voting for IB

Unleash the Chang (he did what!) (Austerity Ponies), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:11 (fourteen years ago)

i'd've thought you couldn't vote for something that clearly isn't an action movie but well here we are

dayove cool (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:12 (fourteen years ago)

also yes The Hidden is fucking a but i don't suppose it's gonna make it now

dayove cool (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:14 (fourteen years ago)
