I said Wolf already, Dan, it features characters over 40 so they're not interested.
― Dr Morbius, Thursday, 14 June 2007 17:09 (sixteen years ago) link
Yeah hi my last boyfriend was 40 so shut up.

Will Randall: What do you do? Laura: Why do you care? Will Randall: I don't. I was just making polite conversation. Laura: I'd rather not discuss what I do. Will Randall: You know, I think I understand what you're like now. You're very beautiful and you think men are only interested in you because you're beautiful, but you want them to be interested in you because you're you. The problem is, aside from all that beauty, you're not very interesting. You're rude, you're hostile, you're sullen, you're withdrawn. I know you want someone to look past all that at the real person underneath but the only reason anyone would bother to look past all that is because you're beautful. Ironic, isn't it? In an odd way you're your own problem. Laura: Sorry. Wrong line. I am not taken aback by your keen insight and suddenly challenged by you.

Bear is the movie about the bear. My grandma had a poster from it in her basement.

I actually really liked Stargate, up until the point that they actually step thru the stargate, when it all goes to shit

clearly the answer is less than zero.
sex, lies and videotape is possibly the worst movie ever

strange, I really liked it in high school when I first saw it, it had sex talk and was all indie. And then I saw it again a year or two ago and basically laughed at it the whole way, and turned it off before it was over because it was stinking up the joint.
― kenan, Thursday, 14 June 2007 18:45 (sixteen years ago) link
I voted for White Palace but it could have been Two days in the valley or Crash too. I do find him rather disturbing in Boston Legal but his late 80s to mid 90s vintage is totally hot.
― leigh, Thursday, 14 June 2007 20:36 (sixteen years ago) link
He looks so like a young David Hemmings in this pic. Which means he'll end up looking like james Doohan in his old age.

― Billy Dods, Thursday, 14 June 2007 21:19 (sixteen years ago) link
he's at his best when he looks his worst
this is true, e.g. Boston Legal. But old 'n' ugly spader really isn't Spader at all, so I'm glad BL is left out.
I vote SL&V because that is a master class on Playing A Crepe.

you put caveats on the only two movies i want to vote for

Oooh, but I fancy him in Boston Legal very very much, nonetheless.
― Zora, Thursday, 14 June 2007 23:08 (sixteen years ago) link
It was hard to choose between Secretary and Crash, but Secretary got my vote.
― rockapads, Friday, 15 June 2007 01:19 (sixteen years ago) link
i guess i voted less than zero altho i wouldve gone w/secretary for the gylnihalll perv factor but it says right in the poll not to do that
― jhøshea, Friday, 15 June 2007 01:22 (sixteen years ago) link
I think he's hot in The Practice/Boston Legal! I thought everyone on ILX hated James Spader! This thread pleases me.
― Trayce, Friday, 15 June 2007 01:25 (sixteen years ago) link
Where is *Alien Hunter*?
Also, that episode of Boston Legal where he dresses up as Murphy Brown.

Too bad Storyville sucked. Maybe he just liked shooting in New Orleans.

Mrs Trifle was watching The Watcher the other night and later said that if James Spader asked her to marry her she would really have to think about it. And this was after watching The Watcher...

James Spader meets David Mamet.

"James Spader rips into Mamet" would have been better.

i'm digging deep into this guy's filmography
i acquired about 70% of the movies he's been in
i watched crash on the weekend
tuff turf won in the other james spader poll (BEST OF THE REST OF JAMES SPADER'S RICH AND WORTHWHILE FILMOGRAPHY) but i haven't been able to get a hold of it unfortunately
