Better Off Dead for me, too.

Went for GPB. I fucking love that movie.

Trayce, Thursday, 14 June 2007 22:57 (sixteen years ago) link

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

Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 14 June 2007 23:00 (sixteen years ago) link

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

ILX System, Thursday, 14 June 2007 23:01 (sixteen years ago) link

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.

Trayce, Thursday, 14 June 2007 23:10 (sixteen years ago) link

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.

Just got offed, Friday, 15 June 2007 00:22 (sixteen years ago) link

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.

Elvis Telecom, Friday, 15 June 2007 01:26 (sixteen years ago) link

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

Trayce, Friday, 15 June 2007 01:28 (sixteen years ago) link

Best line in GPB is by Joan Cusack!

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

Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Friday, 15 June 2007 01:32 (sixteen years ago) link

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.

Dimension 5ive, Friday, 15 June 2007 01:35 (sixteen years ago) link

That hamburger dancing conjured my teenhood with excellent verisimilitude.

Abbott, Friday, 15 June 2007 01:37 (sixteen years ago) link

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.

Trayce, Friday, 15 June 2007 01:41 (sixteen years ago) link

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

Trayce, Friday, 15 June 2007 01:42 (sixteen years ago) link

TAPEHEADS

marmotwolof, Friday, 15 June 2007 01:46 (sixteen years ago) link

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

earlnash, Friday, 15 June 2007 03:55 (sixteen years ago) link

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

Dimension 5ive, Friday, 15 June 2007 04:07 (sixteen years ago) link

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."

kenan, Friday, 15 June 2007 04:27 (sixteen years ago) link

I'm not bitter.

kenan, Friday, 15 June 2007 04:28 (sixteen years ago) link

Kenan, once again your logic is peccable.

Dimension 5ive, Friday, 15 June 2007 04:28 (sixteen years ago) link

fuck you, faggot.

kenan, Friday, 15 June 2007 04:30 (sixteen years ago) link

am i correct in my belief that cusack and piven are feuding? pretty sure this is a point in cusack's favor if true

A B C, Friday, 15 June 2007 04:32 (sixteen years ago) link

Fuck man, I am gonna go home tonight and watch GPB again.

Trayce, Friday, 15 June 2007 04:51 (sixteen years ago) link

Nice comeback, tumbleweed. You kiss boys in Texas with that mouth?

Dimension 5ive, Friday, 15 June 2007 04:56 (sixteen years ago) link

JOEKS, kids all joeks. Sorry.

But yes.

kenan, Friday, 15 June 2007 04:59 (sixteen years ago) link

haha I know! </jaymc>
seriously though stop using the word faggot, what are you, five or in college or something?

Dimension 5ive, Friday, 15 June 2007 05:00 (sixteen years ago) link

but you don't understand... some of my friends are GAY!!!

kenan, Friday, 15 June 2007 05:01 (sixteen years ago) link

i'm going to bed

Dimension 5ive, Friday, 15 June 2007 05:04 (sixteen years ago) link

i saw the sure thing recently for the first time in at least 15 years. holds up nicely. i hear cusack IRL is a superdouche.

gershy, Friday, 15 June 2007 05:05 (sixteen years ago) link

Dobbler is a fine name for a girl

marmotwolof, Friday, 15 June 2007 05:06 (sixteen years ago) link

it actually kind works, yeah. She a great cat, ask anyone who's met her, she's a sweetie. I guess I'm just mad because she's my cat now, and stuck with a name I did not pick.

kenan, Friday, 15 June 2007 05:07 (sixteen years ago) link

I wanted name her "Quizno"

so wtf do I know

kenan, Friday, 15 June 2007 05:08 (sixteen years ago) link

It reminds me girls named Greer or MacKenzie or some other random (usually) surname. Plus it's a cat so who gives a shit. Surely not the cat.

marmotwolof, Friday, 15 June 2007 05:10 (sixteen years ago) link

xpost

That or "Huxtable"

COME ON! These are great unisex pet names.

kenan, Friday, 15 June 2007 05:10 (sixteen years ago) link

Plus it's a cat so who gives a shit.

I have grown to understand this.

BUT STILL. HOW CAN YOU NOT SEX A KITTEN?!

kenan, Friday, 15 June 2007 05:11 (sixteen years ago) link

true hero

A B C, Friday, 15 June 2007 05:15 (sixteen years ago) link

no. I failed. :(

kenan, Friday, 15 June 2007 05:21 (sixteen years ago) link

CON AIR YOU FUCKS.

Also, if "Ice Harvest" gets any votes, I will continue to hate on all y'all.

John Justen, Friday, 15 June 2007 05:31 (sixteen years ago) link

I have seen more cat genitalia than you can dream of

this should be your comeback for every argument

sunny successor, Friday, 15 June 2007 15:41 (sixteen years ago) link

I had to leave the room and collect myself after reading the words "You city bitches, I have seen more cat genitalia than you can dream of."

Alex in Baltimore, Friday, 15 June 2007 15:52 (sixteen years ago) link

i'm just going to presume that kenan was planning on naming the kitten princess sparklepants, since he's so hung up on how "dobbler" is not a "girl name"

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Friday, 15 June 2007 15:54 (sixteen years ago) link

or he was just going to call it vagina

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Friday, 15 June 2007 15:54 (sixteen years ago) link

It's Dobler w/ one B, and you could pretend it's named after Conrad.

Shakey, the GPB hitman thing is a metaphor for a morally indefensible job, like the ones most of us have.

Dr Morbius, Friday, 15 June 2007 15:55 (sixteen years ago) link

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

ILX System, Friday, 15 June 2007 23:01 (sixteen years ago) link

you're all crazy

sunny successor, Saturday, 16 June 2007 02:22 (sixteen years ago) link

maybe kenan's scared that his girl cat's turned all faggot on him

Tracer Hand, Saturday, 16 June 2007 02:30 (sixteen years ago) link
