"you wanna see sick, take a walk around this town"

just watched this for like the tenth time, and i reckon its probably my favourite film of all time

everything about it is perfect, and it also features michael douglas in his only good role

the measure of a good movie is that it should both make you want to burst into tears and also leap out of your seat screaming "yeeeeeahhhh"... eg Terminator 2

"fuck you captain yardley, fuck you very much"

yeah great movie - although youre incorrect about Douglas. Fuckin Wonderboys - amazing film!!, Black Rain - kick ass!! Gordon Gekko in Wall Street for fuck sake, Streets of San Francisco: playing Wil Riker to Karl Malden's Captain Picard, Romancing The Stone - dancing in a white suit!, The Game, The American President - Sorkin is king.

Michael Douglas is kick ass! and if you dont believe me, watch him beat the shit out of motherfuckers in Black Rain!

I love Falling Down - inspiring stuff. Always wanted to do that shit in some fast food place. great movie!

What about the Streets of San Francisco? Savage stuff altogether.

I saw this recently and realised it's a pile of poo (IMHO)

Nick: We're the same, you and me. We're the same, don't you see?
Bill Foster: We are not the same. I'm an American and you're a sick asshole.

Nick: Just what kind of vigilante are you?

Bill Foster: I am not a vigilante. I am just trying to get home to my little girl's birthday party and if everyone will just stay out of my way, nobody will get hurt.

"you think im a thief? Im not the one charging 85c for a stinkin' soda!!!"

That scene with the nazi fuck is unreal. when the guy starts spitting in his face while telling him off - terrifying.

fucking love it when he wastes him.

Never liked the v-neck-jumper-with-nothing-on-underneath-dinosaur on film till I saw the Wonder Boys... 'mazin film
And lest we forget his exploits as a film producer, some classics would never have been made... like One flew over the cookos nest, the ghost and the darkness, John Woo's face Off... stand up geezer

fuckin A!

The Ghost and the Darkness is a very under-rated film I think, despite Val Kilmer's ridiculous Irish accent! Still, they should have put Ernie Hudson in it somewhere.

ya I liked it - if only for its amazing title!

The lions that that was based on were actually female. But they obviously decided that female lions didn't look half as impressive being as they're kind of lacking big fuck off manes and the like.

also it's politically incorrect to kill female lions, as well you know.
