FTFY
Love me some Dolph



And that one Cena movie (The Marine I think?) was halfway entertaining in a dumb way

no no no no no

probably about the worst movie I've seen in the past ~5 years or so. Here was my reaction, which spawned several pages of argument :lol: .
I take comfort in the fact that I am not the only one who enjoyed it.
Wait wait wait, is it time for a Scott Pilgrim bandwagon?!

This is easily in my top 10 favorite movies of all time! :D

EDIT: so what if I've only watched 9 movies
Final Fantasy IX is the best one

"I just keep working on crafting my art, on how to make action movies. "

If you just want a guy who can look bad ass, he can do that. You want him to play a dramatic role like Ip Man though, he can do that too. This guy's been in tons of great movies, has choreographed fights for great movies (like Blade 2), and is a bonafide bad ass martial artist in real life.

Donnie Yen had such an interesting career. Unlike Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Jet Li, etc., Donnie Yen really was not a star of Hong Kong action cinema until he was in his 40s. He did, however, star in Drunken Tai Chi at the age of 21, and the athleticism displayed by a young Donnie Yen in that movie is astounding. I do not understand why that movie did not make him a star, and I highly recommend it to anyone who is a fan of martial arts movies.

No love for De Niro and Pachino? Taxi Driver and Scarface posters were spread across the walls of 55% of people I knew at Uni. Has anyone said Sigourney Weaver?

I'm going to agree with Bogart. He's a monumental badass in what is known as one of the most romantic films of all time. That's pretty badass.

And for a slightly more refined class of badass you have Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing. Proper gentlemen. :lol:

Oliver Reed?

He had drinking problems and when he appeared on Letterman, they were told to not make jokes about drinking. He keeps trying to amusingly push it off, but Dave doesn't stop.

(I need to watch more movies he's in)

It thrills me to see that someone hated Scott Pilgrim vs. The World as much as I did.

Wait are you telling me that you are supposed to just go for a ride without having to over analyze every minute detail to establish some sort of superiority over another person!? I've been doing this wrong the whole time! :D
