blackjohn Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 I should have known Black John would get that one. Great movie if you've never seen it, great campy silliness... John Carpenter and Dan O'Bannon's first movie I think, or one of their first. To think what they went on to do... Yer up John! Haha... my pirate geekiness is only exceeded by my SciFi geekiness. So a quote... It calls back a time when there were flowers all over the Earth... and there were valleys. And there were plains of tall green grass that you could lie down in - you could go to sleep in. And there were blue skies, and there was fresh air... and there were things growing all over the place, not just in some domed enclosures blasted some millions of miles out in to space.

Iron Jon Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 That was from Reservoir Dogs... another great movie. Here's mine, it's from a stupid movie, but I loved it! - "Has anybody here read a real book about vampires, or are we just remembering what a movie said? I mean a real book." "You mean like a Time-Life book?" Jonathan Washbourne "Jonathan Washbourne Junr of Bridgwater appeared in court and was ordered to pay £5 fees and charges or be publicly whipped 20 stripes for his abusive and uncivil behaviour to Elizabeth Canaday Late of said Bridgwater by Thrusting up or putting of a skunk under the Cloaths to her Naked Body And then saying he had Done the office of a midwife."

Iron Jon Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Nope, not 'Lost Boys', although I liked that movie too.

Misson Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 It almost sounds like something from the movie Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but I don't think it is...

Misson Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I thought Billy Bob had a dead on portrayal of Davy Crockette, plus he was the right age being 50 years old. I watched this (I get more movie ideas from this game...) and Thorton was pretty good - he sort of stole the movie. I wonder how historically accurate his portrayal really was?

Graydog Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I thought Billy Bob had a dead on portrayal of Davy Crockette, plus he was the right age being 50 years old. I watched this (I get more movie ideas from this game...) and Thorton was pretty good - he sort of stole the movie. I wonder how historically accurate his portrayal really was? The scene where Crockett is talking about “pass the taters” is a recounting of an event that is told in Crockett’s autobiography, other than telling the tale at the Alamo, the story itself is dead on with the source material. Of all the movie Crockett's I think Billy Bob came the closest for giving a feel of the real deal. Why am I sharing my opinion? Because I am a special snowflake who has an opinion of such import that it must be shared and because people really care what I think! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackbead Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I remember that one! One of me "guilty pleasures" when I was younger. A good cast, a decent concept, one heck of an armored recreational vehicle, but it's been called "possibly one of the worst movies ever made." Hey, I liked it . . . And I'd say that Cheeky is up.

Blackbead Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 "Legend" Another film that some people think is crap and I really enjoy. I think that those people that don't like this movie either try to make too much of it or too little. By the way, I tried to watch it with the Goldsmith score . . . and I just couldn't finish it. I guess I'm a sucker for Tangerine Dream (see post re: "The Keep" in another movie thread.) Oh, wait . . . that wasn't your line, that was part of your signature . . . foolish mortal, me . . . The other quote is from "Yellowbeard," I believe. I watched it again a couple of months ago and I think I recall that line.
