Edmond: good concept, rather poor execution , William H. Macy gives an awful performance.

Maximum Overdrive: I liked this one a good deal. certainly cheesy but loads of fun. i think Stephen King should give directing another shot.

Naked Lunch: i appreciate this film more every time I see it.

Calvaire (The Ordeal) : what the fuck?

Good god..... I always knew you had lousy taste- but this seals the deal! :eek:



:D <---- see I'm using smileys you can't get mad....

But seriously......
With Edmond you've got an amazing triumvirate- Stuart Gordon, David Mamet & William H. Macy, all combined for a near-masterpiece. One of Macy's BEST performances
With Maximum Overdrive you've got a steaming pile of garbage- thank goddess King was smart enough to see he can't direct his way out of a paper bag.

To each his own, Macy's performance really annoyed me, felt pretty over acted. Perhaps I just don't like the guy in general.

I never said Maximum Overdrive was a GOOD movie, i said it was enjoyable.

whatever, thanks for being an asshole about it though.

Ive never understood all the negativity concerning Max Overdrive, as you say its an easy, enjoyable watch. Its was never going to be an oscar winner but never pretends to anything but a cheesy, tongue-in-cheek flick.

I guess what you call enjoyable depends on what you enjoy. Films that are intentionally made to be bad aren't enjoyable to me. It's just lazy filmmaking.

Last Man Standing - a little better the second time ...

Friday the 13th (new version) - once again i'm reminded why i stopped liking slashers in the 80's. dull, dull, dull.

the one saving grace is the girl with the incredible breasts. (as the guy kept pointing out) I'm pretty sure she had the only natural pair in the movie.


what it is with fake boobs in hollywood ?? isnt that over yet ?
