CON AIR YOU FUCKS.

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

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."

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.

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

motherfuck a gay cat. ferreal.

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.

There's a million-dollar movie pitch in this.

Seconded or thirded or whatever on the love for the inexplicably not-included The Sure Thing. I somehow appear to never have seen Say Anything, which seems wrong given my deep love for both teen films and John Cusack. He even made Serendipity nearly not horrible, FFS.

ailsa, Saturday, 16 June 2007 14:52 (sixteen years ago) link

actually, his puppeteer character is the most ILX one.

Dr Morbius, Saturday, 16 June 2007 17:56 (sixteen years ago) link

It's a shame True Colors wasn't in this poll. Spader AND Cusack doing some intense politico screen-sharing (and Spader's actually the good guy).

I didn't read this thread before, but GPB is my favorite too, and I didn't know so many other people agreed. Hooray!

just saw new Say Anything DVD -- it's his iconic performance: Essence of Cusack. The "nervous talking thing."

Also forgot the name is DOBB-ler bot DOH-bler.

How many times a pivotal scene in a John Cusack film involve him sitting or standing in the rain at night? I can only think of Say Anything and High Fidelity, but it seems like it happens more often than that.

One of the most iconic ‘80s movie moments by one of the most iconic ’80s movie stars is in 1989’s Say Anything. John Cusack’s Lloyd Dobler, in a last-ditch attempt at wooing the girl of his dreams, hoists a boombox over his head blasting Peter Gabriel’s “In Your Eyes.” Even people who haven’t seen the movie likely know the scene.

In a surprise appearance over the weekend, Cusack made a cameo at the Hollywood Bowl for Peter Gabriel’s concert commemorating the 25th anniversary of his breakout album, So. During the portion of the concert where Gabriel revisited the seminal classic, Cusack handed the boombox to Gabriel who launched into song as he held it over his own head. Say Anything director Cameron Crowe was also in attendance and received a shout-out later in the show.

i bet Cusack still wishes he could've been onstage with Fishbone handing them a boombox before they play "Bonin' In The Boneyard"

his performance in love and mercy is amazing. for someone who looks and sounds nothing like brian wilson, he somehow became brian wilson.

kurt schwitterz, Monday, 9 November 2015 18:41 (eight years ago) link

haha yes I thought that too, and he didn't even seem to be trying too hard it was just this odd situation where his personal tics matched up with Brian Wilson's with a minimum of tweaking.

idgaf about the rest of the movie tbh

why couldn't he find some cool HBO show for himself?

scott seward, Thursday, 1 March 2018 18:09 (six years ago) link

this guy is probably one of the few actors who i thought was pretty cool and just did a complete 180 and went to shit

he seems to have some interesting ideas but they don't transfer over to his actual work/characters

F# A# (∞), Thursday, 1 March 2018 18:17 (six years ago) link

i feel like he doesn't have a place in nu-Hollywood. He should do the TV show route or show up in a Marvel movie, i guess those are the remaining two options for any actor now.

omar little, Thursday, 1 March 2018 18:20 (six years ago) link

he looks like he plays a lot of poker in vegas or something. he's not THAT old.

scott seward, Thursday, 1 March 2018 18:21 (six years ago) link

I loved him as Nixon in The Butler, would happily watch an John-Cusack-as-Nixon mini-series on HBO.

he's great in The Paperboy as well, I think he's best when playing creeps, weirdos and/or perverts

soref, Thursday, 1 March 2018 18:21 (six years ago) link

all his photos in recent years he even looks like a poker player. lots of baseball caps. i think maybe he partied vv hard after the Cubs won the Series.

Grand Piano was a fun little genre throwaway

I remember I liked Maps to the Stars a lot, I wonder if there will be more or fewer of these Hollywood's-dark-underbelly type films in the post-Weinstein scandal world or if they'll take a different approach

soref, Thursday, 1 March 2018 18:32 (six years ago) link

i actually don't even know his name

but it's this fella

There's an old Hollywood maxim that you can only play what you're offered. And when he was a medium-wattage movie star, when it came to producing his own stuff it eventually ended with the very underwhelming War, Inc.

Anyway the guy had a p decent run for 20 years beginning in '85. I didn't like the films that Cronenberg and Spike Lee cast him in, but as long as he's on the radar of guys like that he should be OK for character parts.

Obama describes Lula in his new memoir as "having the scruples of a Tammany Hall boss."

Just like a neoliberal - the arrogance is staggering.
What kind of scruples does a man have who authorized a drone assassination policy have ?- u say due process ?
Nah -Just have to use a magic word ‘Terror ‘ & you can have assassination Tuesday’s at White House -
