Uhhh, have you seen "The Hunted"...he is laughably horrible in it. It's fun as hell to watch and make fun of though cause it's so bad, you should rent it. I won't spoil anything for you in case you haven't seen it but he does something near the end of the movie that is so out of left field and so so so wrong for his character that it had me and my cousin literally with tears laughing on the floor, it was the funniest, dumbest thing I've ever seen, it seriously could have been a deleted scene from "Dumb and Dumber", really though, it's the fucking funniest non-comedy I've ever seen.

I really liked the movie. Quickly: Why was it bad? What was the thing at the end so "out of left field"? How is Benicio bad, or are you picking on the movie in general? You went too far on negativity here to just let your opinion slide without explaining yourself.

Quote from: ebeamanKevin Costner - "JFK" and "A Perfect World"

This is why I hate these threads. Its a bold statement for someone to say Costner was only good in two movies but yet these threads do it all the time for everything. This forum gets worst all the time because of these threads carrying over to other threads.

SoNowThen

Viggo Mortensen - LOTR (yep, I couldn't fucking stand this guy, and now, because of the trilogy, he's one of my favorite actors -- though his next few movies will show if he stays on the list or not)

Agreed about Sharon Stone (Casino).

Oh, and Winona was great in Celebrity, and fucking amazing in Age Of Innocence (but I pretty much like to see her in anything).
Those who say that the totalitarian state of the Soviet Union was not "real" Marxism also cannot admit that one simple feature of Marxism makes totalitarianism necessary:  the rejection of civil society. Since civil society is the sphere of private activity, its abolition and replacement by political society means that nothing private remains. That is already the essence of totalitarianism; and the moralistic practice of the trendy Left, which regards everything as political and sometimes reveals its hostility to free speech, does nothing to contradict this implication.

When those who hated capital and consumption (and Jews) in the 20th century murdered some hundred million people, and the poster children for the struggle against international capitalism and America are now fanatical Islamic terrorists, this puts recent enthusiasts in an awkward position. Most of them are too dense and shameless to appreciate it, and far too many are taken in by the moralistic and paternalistic rhetoric of the Left.
