Point Break distinguished mentally-challenged fellow, it's only the prime staple to Hot Fuzz

Point Break is pretty awesome. I would have said Zodiac just because it is recent, though.

Dot Matrix printers, heh.

"Young, dumb, full of cum". Also, Johnny Utah is the dumbest name for a character, ever.Oh, good, pre-crazy Gary Busey. I like that this movie was once the highlight of cool. Also, banks w/o bullet proof glass and crazy alarms. This movie is old. This whole thing is like that 24 in 1994 spoof.

I'm not a Keanu-basher, but he is beyond super terrible in this movie. "They're traveling on the money, going where the waves are". This movie just took a turn for the STUPID AWESOME. Is this a crime movie or a movie about how awesome surfing is? We'll see.

TVC15 · « **Reply #11 on:** November 13, 2007, 11:51:25 PM »

Oh dude, the only people the movie is beloved is because it is 90S STUPID AWESOME

Babel

I hate Lori Petty so much. She's like the girl you're afraid of waking up to. Also, creepy changing montage.

"What do you want?, "Shrimp and fries". Why does she look like Meg Ryan?

I still think youre cool, Ichirou

Babel

TVC15 · « **Reply #16 on:** November 14, 2007, 12:02:23 AM »

I haven't seen Babel. I heard it was fuck boring.

GilloD · « **Reply #17 on:** November 14, 2007, 12:05:20 AM »

This football part is boring. Also, if you're going to infiltrate a bank robbing ganag, maybe don't use your real name.

The Sceneman · « **Reply #18 on:** November 14, 2007, 12:10:24 AM »

Yep it was boring, but the main problem with the film was how pretentious and self important it was. The stories depicted were completely exploitative and manipulating, and the threads which tied the different plotlines together were so contrived that the film made Lost look like the 6 o'clock news. Thematically this film is a complete mess, it has absolutely no idea what its trying to do. All this coupled with some awful 'ambient' music, makes for probably the most annoying, pretentious, you-should-like-this-film-becuase-its-art movie Ive ever seen.

edit: this post refers to Babel, not Point Break

Point Break

Babel

The Sceneman · « **Reply #22 on:** November 14, 2007, 12:16:35 AM »

GilloD · « **Reply #23 on:** November 14, 2007, 12:18:10 AM »

Swayze. Yeah. Also, I love this screenwriter's idea of what an AWESOME PARTY is like

The Sceneman · « **Reply #24 on:** November 14, 2007, 12:19:30 AM »

Party

GilloD · « **Reply #25 on:** November 14, 2007, 12:22:08 AM »

I feel like I could skip 30 minutes of this movie and still know what was going on.

GilloD · « **Reply #26 on:** November 14, 2007, 12:30:02 AM »

Protip2: When sleeping with gang leader's girlfriend, do not do so in public and then sleep there.

GilloD · « **Reply #27 on:** November 14, 2007, 12:32:34 AM »

Gary Busey is awesome in this movie.

GilloD · « **Reply #28 on:** November 14, 2007, 12:34:02 AM »

Q: What is more awesome thaan surfing?

A: Skydiving.

bagofeyes · « **Reply #32 on:** November 14, 2007, 01:11:54 AM »

Zodiac was boring. The real case wasn't even interesting in the first place.

GilloD · « **Reply #33 on:** November 14, 2007, 01:19:43 AM »

This is an interesting meditation on post-Regan America. But mostly I want it to be over. The last 20 minutes better be especially awesome.

GilloD · « **Reply #34 on:** November 14, 2007, 01:23:19 AM »

Why am I still watching this?

bagofeyes · « **Reply #35 on:** November 14, 2007, 01:31:36 AM »

Man, GilloD, you don't get the spiritual side of surfing, dude! You're just a thrill junky!
