I hate Steven Seigal

Actually, Irwin talked and acted that way before he got his own TV show.

Once my grandparents took me to Australia Zoo when I was a kid and I got to meet Irwin before he was famous.

WYSIWYG.

Having said that, he still shits me.

What? Billy Madison was a bad movie? It was simple comedy, perhaps a bit childish, but that was the charm of it! I loved Billy Madison!

And that Mountain Dew commercial was hokey and stupid. Slapstick karate is overdone...and in this case, not very well done.

DGMacphee · Tue 18/05/2004 05:35:08

Granted, terran, but Sandlar has the ability to do better than Billy Madison.

LGM · Tue 18/05/2004 05:38:23

Yea.. Have you SEEN Punch-Drunk Love? :-p haha

You're absolutely right ... case in point:

Going Overboard - 1989 (sorry ... couldn't resist!!)

I'm not a huge fan of Adam Sandler.

When I was younger (about the time that Billy Madison came out) I admit I thought it was hilarious.Ã,Â Now I'm to the point where I think it's simply pathetic how being stupid is so cool in America (can't speak for the rest of the world).

Anybody seen that movie tickets dot com preview before the movies where the three idiots talk about getting tickets from MovieTickets.com?Ã,Â Everybody in the theater laughs at, "Nobody told us going to college was gonna be hard." - or - "The R is silent"Ã,Â It's not even an original joke.

Maybe I'm just getting old ...

Quote from: kingsized on Mon 17/05/2004 23:14:37I despise Kirsten Dunst.

Kirsten Dunst?

I don't really think she's that bad of an actress... I'm mostly disagreeing with you because I've had the hots for her for some time...

As for Adam Sandler, I thought most of his movies were great. There were a few stinkbombs in there (8 Crazy Nights, Mr. Deeds), and I haven't seen Punch Drunk Love, but I've heard it's horrible.

As for Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison, Big Daddy; I thought all those movies were great.

It can't be as bad as the train wreck that is Little Nicky.

Seriously, the guy does have some charm about him, but only when he's not acting like a retarded goofball.

I liked The Wedding Singer and Punch Drunk Love (and I've heard he does a decent job in 50 First Dates), but apart from that... there's not much else...

I just hope Spanglish is decent too.

How come no one has mentioned Rosie O'Donnell yet?

Because some of us have enough common sense to know that some things can be taken for granted.

Dammit!!Ã,Â I'd actually managed to forget that movie!!Ã,Â Now I'm going to watch Band of Brothers just so I can watch something so good it'll wipe something so bad out of my mind.

** DM puts Band of Brothers (part 5: crossroads) into the DVD player ... **

evenwolf · Tue 18/05/2004 08:45:46

I don't care what you say Hyde. I know I'll never touch her. But the girl does about the same character in every movie - and i argue that even dumb blond girls vary every once in a while from one another.

LordHart · Tue 18/05/2004 11:08:50

I believe she played a redhead in Spiderman...

Kinoko · Tue 18/05/2004 15:23:12

My lord, how I hate Nicholas Cage. How I wish something big, planetary in size would land on him, crushing him and any (if there are any) little baby NC's. I hate him so muuuuuch! He just disgusts me. He's a shithouse actor in mostly shithouse movies, and any good movies he's in, he ruins. What on earth were people thinking casting him alongside Sean Connery in the Rock?!

I hate to defend Steven Seagal though. He's awesome! I don't like him as a martial artist or an actor as such, but he always plays great characters. We don't have enough infallible characters in the movies of today. Everything's gotta be so freaking realistic. Why not cool?? Under Seige and Under Siege 2 are awesome movies

The Glimmer Man was fun too. More ass kicking! More cheesy, convenient story lines! As long as it's REAL violence, I wanna see blood.

Adam Sandler is... okay, I guess. The only thing I've ever really liked him in was Bulletproof.

I also agree with Kirsten Dunst sucking. Geez, I hate her. Ever since she ruined Claudia in Interview with a Vampire. Though, don't go thinking it's a grudge, she's just a terrible actress who always plays irritating stupid characters and... sexy? Attractive? Have we lowered our standards so much? -_-

c.leksutin · Tue 18/05/2004 18:11:09

Kinko, please keep in mind that "Attractive" is solely a matter of opinion, therefore there is no "right" and "wrong" in who someone finds attractive. Some like blonds some like redheads, some like skinny girls some like a woman with curves... please dont generalize or attempt to speak for everyone.

Adam Sandler does suck, most of the time. Punch Drunk Love was the only movie of his that I can remember liking, and thats because (IMO) he was finally playing a different character then in all of his other stereotypical-fratboy-level-humor rolls.

You're insane.

LGM · Tue 18/05/2004 21:33:00

Yes.. Have you SEEN Matchstick Men?

Have you SEEN Raising Arizona.

Andail · Tue 18/05/2004 21:37:12

Raising Arizona was great, and one of the few movies where Cage acted well.

Steven Segal, on the other hand, has never acted well in my opinion.
I also hate all of his movies.

Robert Eric · Tue 18/05/2004 22:14:40

I liked Adam Sandler in Happy Gilmore. I thought that was a decent movie.
I don't like Milla Jovovich or Anne Heche.

Darth Mandarb · Tue 18/05/2004 23:02:18

I hate Noel Gugliemi.Ã,Â Mostly though just 'cause he scares me.

For those who don't know him ... he's the guy that plays a scary thug in just about every movie he's ever been in.Ã,Â If you think I'm kidding, check His IMDB Profile and you'll see what I mean.

Here are just a few of his roles (as listed on IMDB):
Latino Thug, Hood, Snuffy, The Inmate, Latino Convict, Gang Leader, Mexican Mafia Soldier.

If that's not an impressive resumÃ©, then I've never seen one!

DGMacphee · Wed 19/05/2004 02:06:37

I like a lot Cage. Especially in Leaving Las Vegas. I saw that movie when I was about 14 or 15. Still one of my favourite love stories.

LordHart · Wed 19/05/2004 05:29:35

I think Cage is one of my favourite actors. Especially after I saw Raising Arizona for the first time, and then a heap of his other movies. You say hes a bad actor, like others have said, have you seen Matchstick Men, Raising Arizona, Kiss of the Vampire, Leaving Las Vegas...
