Moose Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Popeye, with Robin Williams and Shelley Duvall, who was simply born to play Olive Oyl! If, like me, you are a fan of the original comic strip by E.C. Segar, this film really captures the quirkiness of the old Thimble Theater gang! A distant second is "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure", which was pretty entertaining for all its stupidity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 ...Daddy Day Care. But not that unrealistic Saving Private Ryan. That sucked... 385716[/snapback] You know, I hate this trend of remakes in Hollywood, but the highly overrated and unrealistic Spielberg film seems to be irrevocably linked for all eternity with Daddy Day Care. I said this before, every party or meeting ultimately ends up in the old Saving Private Ryan vs. Daddy Day Care debate. Are you SPR or DDC? But what if, WHAT FUKKING IF, we did a sequel to BOTH? At the same time? Got the best of both worlds? The realness and gut wrenching visceral power of the landmark Daddy Day Care with the yuks and slap-of-the-knee limbs coming off bodies from bullets (quite a funny bit of fantasy there because that never happens) from Private Ryan? This is Chuck. Best new idea since feeding mayonaise to tuna. SAVING DADDY DAY CARE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDBillzFan Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Saving Silverman. REALLY stupid but makes me laugh my ass off. Secret Window. I don't know why. 385624[/snapback] Saving Silverman was freakin' hysterical. The Neil Diamond angle was funny as hell up until they kidnapped him, but what made up for it was the closing credits scene where they were all on stage in concert with him doing whatever that classic Neil Diamond song was. It reminded me of the old Billy Ocean video from Jewel of the Nile where Danny Devito, Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turning are on stage doing the backup vocals, and at one point Devito breaks out the sax for the big solo. I dig stupid crap like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEEDFREDJACKSONNOW Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 I'm dating myself a bit... "Message from Space" about spaceships that were actually WATER sailing vessels. I think it was up for 2 weeks. and "Big Trouble in Little China" with Kurt Russell and Kim Catrell (love her green eyes, great shots of her in a wet shirt) How about "Kung Fu Hustle"?

I can't watch that. But Kung Fu Hustle? That movie rocked!! No way that gets classified as "lousy". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dante Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 I thought "Last Action Hero" was actually pretty good. Never could figure out why it got so much bad press. Arnie Haters I guessss. I also enjoyed "Vanilla Sky" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was called Abre Los Ojos and also starred Penelope Cruz. Its worth renting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckeyemike Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Somebody earlier mentioned Kim Cattrall, which made me think of "Mannequin". This movie was a surprise hit at the box office in 1987. I remember seeing it three times in a 48 hour period in college. After I saw it the first time, I couldn't get enough of it! "Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure" is not a lousy movie, so "Mannequin" is my guilty pleasure. BTW, look for a young James Spader in "Mannequin" as the bad guy.
