Heat has a worse ending than Old Boy! Don't you care what happens in the last half hour of films, Adam?

Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:08 (nineteen years ago) link

alex thinks Kobe Bryant's accuser is lying and Michael Jackson is innocent!

kyle (akmonday), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:09 (nineteen years ago) link

Love the ending to Heat! Love (almost) all films with airports in them!

just adam (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:09 (nineteen years ago) link

I like HEAT!

gygax! (gygax!), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:09 (nineteen years ago) link

Heat is a great movie, though

kyle (akmonday), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:09 (nineteen years ago) link

Hahaha now wait a second I didn't say that exactly.

Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:09 (nineteen years ago) link

Heat is an okay movie right up until the point where Robert DeNiro does something totally ridiculously stupid and out of character and then it just descends into nonsense. Al Pacino also pretty much sucks in it, as usual.

Okay, FUCK you!

just adam (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:12 (nineteen years ago) link

The guy only knows how to overact Adam. He chews up scenery like I chew bubblegum (loudly with lots of smacking noises.)

Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:13 (nineteen years ago) link

"She's got a big ass, and you got your head ALL THE WAY UP IT!!!!!"

That's one of my favorite lines from Heat.

just adam (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:15 (nineteen years ago) link

It is 100% pure Pacino awesomeness.

gygax! (gygax!), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:22 (nineteen years ago) link

The last time I watched Heat, I rewound that particular line probably 10x.

gygax! (gygax!), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:22 (nineteen years ago) link

Ick.

Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:23 (nineteen years ago) link

I lov you gygax!

just adam (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:24 (nineteen years ago) link

If nobody ever overacted and said things like this, life would be no fun at all!

Pacino exists for this purpose.

just adam (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:25 (nineteen years ago) link

:-D

gygax! (gygax!), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:25 (nineteen years ago) link

If Al Pacino wasn't ruining potentially good movies with his craptastic acting I'd be more forgiving. If he only played drill sergeants or was in Look Who's Talking for example or maybe playing Roy Cohn (although FUCK isn't there a jew somewhere who could have played the fucking guy.) But he kills films. He's a long way from The Godfather.

Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:28 (nineteen years ago) link

He was good as Cohn which sort of redeemed him in my eyes. Otherwise I think Alex is right. Has anybody seen his Richard III thing?

Michael White (Hereward), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:30 (nineteen years ago) link

Me, of course! Great stuff.

just adam (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:33 (nineteen years ago) link

I want to see that. Pacino has such great talent and potential that it really irks me when he's a cheesy ham.

Michael White (Hereward), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:34 (nineteen years ago) link

Yes, I think that's the main reason why his suckiness makes me so mad. If he'd always been this way (like Nicholson) it would bother me a lot less (I won't see Nicholson films for the most part, but he doesn't disgust me in quite the same way. . . also he tends not to get roles in otherwise good movies.)

Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:37 (nineteen years ago) link

I sense passion here.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 00:58 (nineteen years ago) link

Passion of the CHRISTGAU

just adam (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 01:47 (nineteen years ago) link

i hate pacino, never liked anything he was in, w/o exception (hate de niro and hate nicholson too--though i like duvall, hoffman and some hackman)

anthony easton (anthony), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 02:09 (nineteen years ago) link

late-pacino bombast is one of the great pleasures of the last twenty years of cinema!!

Heat is excellent, but I like The Insider more. And Pacino doesn't puree the scenery around him in that one!

and Repo Man is a FIVE STAR FILM

Gear! (can Jung shill it, Mu?) (Gear!), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 04:35 (nineteen years ago) link

FIVE STAR

just adam (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 04:53 (nineteen years ago) link

It's called LOVE, baby! People do crazy shit in WUV.

nathalie barefoot in the head (stevie nixed), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 08:11 (nineteen years ago) link

Falling In Love is a terrible movie right up until the point where Robert De Niro and Harvey Keitel stop the film altogether for five minutes so they can do their trademark Mean Streets routine, and after that it goes back to being terrible again.

Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 08:17 (nineteen years ago) link

WHAT is nathalie takling abt???? i assumed alex was talking abotu when DE NIRO kills that RACIST FUCK.

is it?, Tuesday, 15 March 2005 15:20 (nineteen years ago) link

hey jerk, spoiler much?!

mark p (Mark P), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 15:31 (nineteen years ago) link

"It's called LOVE, baby! People do crazy shit in WUV."

HE DID NOT STOP ESCAPING, DITCH HIS GIRLFRIEND AND HEAD INTO A POSSIBLE TRAP TO KILL A GUY WHO COULDN'T HARM HIM AT THAT POINT ANYWAY FOR LOVE! HE DID IT CUZ HE WAS ACTING OUT OF CHARACTER!

Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 16:48 (nineteen years ago) link

Also I would just like mention that I watched Sexy Beast again last night and you guys are crazy. That movie is completely average (except for Ben Kingsley who is used pretty stupidly.)

Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 16:54 (nineteen years ago) link

You know how all these people are disagreeing with you?

It's called "being wrong".

just adam (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 16:54 (nineteen years ago) link

How do you deal with being wrong so much, Adam? I was going to ask you yesterday, but I forgot.

Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 17:00 (nineteen years ago) link

I call Oprah for spiritual guidance.

just adam (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 17:02 (nineteen years ago) link

WELL so you are talking about that scene?? i disagree. he said you gotta be able to leave it 4 tha sake of tha Game and he left it baby, he LEFT IT ALL.

lol

imsorryillstop, Tuesday, 15 March 2005 17:22 (nineteen years ago) link

i agree that sexy beast is just "okay".

kyle (akmonday), Thursday, 17 March 2005 16:19 (nineteen years ago) link

birth was a big improvement

kyle (akmonday), Thursday, 17 March 2005 16:19 (nineteen years ago) link

no

MVP (nordicskilla), Thursday, 17 March 2005 16:19 (nineteen years ago) link

I like that line with "big ass" better.

Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Thursday, 17 March 2005 16:22 (nineteen years ago) link

popped in to say that he was nice, but see that i already covered that

ronny longjohns (ronny longjohns), Friday, 18 March 2005 02:41 (nineteen years ago) link

He introduced me to Sparks, the drink (on his dime and then some.. very kind and generous)

donut debonair (donut), Friday, 18 March 2005 02:48 (nineteen years ago) link

He introduced me to Sparks, the drink, on his dime, therefore a rogue.

M. White (Miguelito), Friday, 18 March 2005 03:43 (nineteen years ago) link

I had no idea you had been around for so long, SF.

heat is the greatest movie ever made.

word, adam.

"I had no idea you had been around for so long, SF."

That's good, I think.

Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Friday, 18 March 2005 16:19 (nineteen years ago) link

you are a cool dude.

cozen (Cozen), Friday, 18 March 2005 18:44 (nineteen years ago) link

oh, you think so?

VIC MACKEY (nordicskilla), Friday, 18 March 2005 18:45 (nineteen years ago) link

Except for giving Repo Man three stars. Apparently poor taste in Emilio Estevez vehicles is my downfall.

Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Friday, 18 March 2005 18:46 (nineteen years ago) link

I take it back.

cozen (Cozen), Friday, 18 March 2005 18:49 (nineteen years ago) link

That you even think of Repo Man as "an Emilio Estevez vehicle" is very revealing indeed!

VIC MACKEY (nordicskilla), Friday, 18 March 2005 18:52 (nineteen years ago) link

SF, harry. dean. stanton.

cozen (Cozen), Friday, 18 March 2005 18:55 (nineteen years ago) link

You think it's a Harry Dean Stanton vehicle?

Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Friday, 18 March 2005 18:57 (nineteen years ago) link

It's about a Harry Dean Stanton vehicle.

VIC MACKEY (nordicskilla), Friday, 18 March 2005 18:58 (nineteen years ago) link

All LA "punk" movies from the early 80s are just okay (or really bad.)

movielens.org is a pretty neat website

WHAT is nathalie takling abt????

No matter what, it's actually ALWAYS about me.

Alex, you daft kunt, Repo is GREAT! But then I knew you would not like it, cause you're a gym obsessed POSHO. wink wink

nathalie barefoot in the head (stevie nixed), Friday, 18 March 2005 20:14 (nineteen years ago) link

Actually, that's me.

VIC MACKEY (nordicskilla), Friday, 18 March 2005 20:15 (nineteen years ago) link

Hahaha irony of ironies.
