Point Break: A Beautiful Film

i'm sure this film has perpetrated lots of homoerotic tension btwn roomies

Time for a revive.

I have never forced even the most skeptical person to watch this movie who didn't freakin' love it.

Kem Nunn ought to be namechecked somewhere in this thread. They ruined his book, but in a totally awesome way.

the curse of co-starring in a 1991 film w/ Keanu strikes again.

My Own Private Idaho (1991)
Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey (1991)
Point Break (1991)

will Alex Winter be next?

love this movie so much

Never saw this (and don't need to) but a cousin did upon its release, and described it, and the ending sounds like the coolest ending ever

No, you need to. You really need to.

This movie was to my gang's post-pubescent ideas about the world what Star Wars was to our pre-pube ideas.

Luke Skywalker vs. Johnny Utah!

pre-pube ideas. - dude, gross.

sockish, even.

Or else clever.

Oh to be young, dumb, and full of cum.

it's not so much cum as it is 100% pure adrenaline!

Bodhi: [getting ready for their next robbery] 90 seconds Johnny. That's all I ask for, just 90 seconds of your life Johnny, that's it. This is our tatic, is we strike fear. Once you get them peeing down ther leg, they submit. Also about fear, fear causes hasitation, and hesitation, causes your worst fears to come true.
[hands Johnny a shot gun]
Johnny Utah: I can't do this.
Bodhi: Yes you can, who knows, you might like it.
Johnny Utah: Bodhi, this is your fucking wake-up call man. I am an F, B, I, Agent!
Bodhi: Yeah, I know man. Ain't it wild? That's what makes it so interesting. You can do what you want, and make up your own rules. Why be a servant to the law, when you can be it's master?
Grommet: Fuckin' a!
Nathanial: I love this job.

xp 100% pure cum!

RIP,
King-Like Bodhisattva.
Suffer no more.

Thanks for the good times.

One of my fave films. I have it on DVD and will probably watch it again soon. RIP dude, you were fucking hott and sweet.

No better thread to post this stuff. I recommend turning the sound down for this first one, because the music is entirely inappropriate to how truly fucked up this wave is. I love the shot where the wave grabs the dude by his head and flips him like a cartwheel.

The music on this one is pretty dope. RJD2. It's just a little bit mournful, so you remember that YOU CAN DIE DOING THIS.

This one is goddamn poetry.

This movie was to my gang's post-pubescent ideas about the world what Star Wars was to our pre-pube ideas.

I hope you all get out of jury duty.

Watching this tonight in honor of the man.

On iPlayer (UK only I guess)

A Beautiful Film

"I caught my first tube today... Sir."

lol Keanu

cool, do iplayer often show full movies? or is this a one off.

First time I've noticed a full movie. It was a good way to kill an afternoon off work.

Fantastic. I've never seen this film, but have thought for a long time that I need to.

It pretty much lived up to it. God bless you BBC.

:)

You crossed the line. People trusted you and THEY DIEEEED.

YOU GOTTA GO DOWN. THAT'S THE WAY IT HAS TO BE.

(That's what she said, etc.)

"I KNOW YOU WANT ME SO BAD ITS LIKE ASS IN YOUR MOUTH"

how could Johnny have been so sure that Tyler wasn't in on it, and why wasn't he under protection once his cover was blown?

There's so many holes it's not worth seriously thinking about them. It's a movie, a ridiculous movie at that. This is not a bad thing.

Next Of Kin, lest we forget

this movie and the dialogue quoted herein (esp. g-kit's) rule. i should be disturbed by the number of swayze movies i like. maybe he's the BAD (as in Paul Fussell) generation's gene kelly. i'm not sure what basis i have for his aesthetic distinction, but don't be lumping ally sheedy in with MSM (eh) or Lori Petty (meh). is californication a post-point break record?

this post is the best justification ever for ILX's suggest-ban system -- what a douchetard.

I have yet to see solid justification for ILX's suggest ban system. That post is nonsense, is all.

ha that post kinda rules

Had this outta the library for a week. Didn't watch it.

Well, you gave yourself a fair chance to watch it. What else can you do?

Oh wow, I didn't know Concrete Blonde was on the soundtrack.

Still, it's hilariously easy to spot the exact moments where Adam Carolla or somebody would go off on eviscerating how stupid this movie gets.

Sequel?

When Billy Dalton, military special ops and star surfer, is disqualified from the pro-surfing tour, he takes off for the coast of Bali looking for the perfect wave. While there hes recruited by a private security force who are trying to find a gang known as The Bush Administration, surfing outlaws and modern day pirates who work like The Ex-Presidents, a bank robbing crew from Malibu twenty years ago.

I'm guessing this might not be quite such a beautiful film.

Kenan thanks for those youtube links. Shipsterns..
