Bring It On

My sister owns Pearl Harbor but I feel partly responsible because I let her choose it as a selection from that Columbia House club.

I liked it. The scenes with the choreographer were the best.

"Why do we have to go on diets?"

"In cheerleading, we through people in the air, and fat people don't go as high."
"Don't think about making art, just get it done. Let everyone else decide if it's good or bad, whether they love it or hate it. While they are deciding, make even more art." - Andy Warhol

Yes, yes, the choreographer saved the movie so it could be watchable for me.

My favs:

"Cheerleaders are dancers.. gone retarded."

"Follow me or perish, sweater monkeys."

I liked it too! It's one of the few teen flicks that I actually like.

Plus Eliza Dushku is in it...  :shock:

Anyone ashamed of What About Bob should be ashamed of being ashamed.  Same goes for UHF.

The only DVD set I ever just had to dump was The Transformers: Season 1.  Hadn't seen any of those episodes in over 10 years, and I remember them being so great... but they aren't.  Thank goodness for Ebay.  I'm avoiding the rest of the TV series and sticking with the movie.

Right on man.  "I'm sailing!"

re: What About Bob?

Hey, I'm a huge Bill Murray AND Richard Dreyfus fan... but rewatching this movie.... it fucking sucked. I laughed twice the whole time. It was a great memory from childhood ruined. I want my $8 back that I paid for the dvd.
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.

well, i'm bitter for sure, but i don't know how it would affect this movie.

i just found the name-calling stuff with the kid to be not at all funny, and don't like to see dreyfus play such a one sided "bad guy" type character. i know that's expecting lots from a fluff comedy, but still, it annoyed me.

except for the part where he has bob committed, then he gets called to come back and pick him up, and he's all pissed, and bob won't shut up, so he says the "getouddathecar...." scream that is all garbled. that part kills me...
