The "journey across the seas" history lesson has been thoroughly debunked: http://zythophile.co.uk/201…

Denis Lavant is who immediately springs to mind when describe this sort of acting.

Goddamn, O'Neil, you are a fucking treasure.

Thanks much for your kind words, internet stranger!

"I mean, unless you feel there's some underlying issue here where you're purposely rejecting girls because they're interested in you "
Hi. Yeah, that's me lately. My ex ended a 4.5 year relationship in December, and every time a hottie at the climbing gym or at a concert strikes up a conversation with me, I remove…

"I would wager that Dan's real reaction here is the 2nd B in BBC, and if it were a BWC then there'd be no issue "dehumanizing" him."
Gee, it's almost like historical and social context changes the meaning of certain phrases and actions!

Just be flattered that he asked the question!

Are you fucking retarded?

Yep, your last paragraph nails it. I think that's why the movie works - it demonstrates an obvious understanding and affection for the characters it gently mocks.

I find myself saying this once a week. O'Neil, you are a treasure.

The first time I saw this movie, I was a teenager and thought it lionized the breed of status-obsessed and self-aggrandizing hepcat on display throughout its running time. I thought they were just so fucking cool.
Almost fifteen years later, the movie is still relevant to me, but now it's because I understand who's…

All I could think while watching Dredd was, "Holy fucking shit, Anthony Dodd Mantle is the fucking man."

LFG HOGGER PST

All I know is that O'Neal is on a fucking roll today with the picture choices.

That is easily the nadir of the movie.

It's got some great performances, but it didn't really gel for me. I don't think it's top 10 material.

Yep, you nailed it. I played Smash, Diary and the Blue Album incessently in middle school. TGUP were a late high school thing. They weren't mentioned in this article because the scope is limited to the mid-early 90s.

The Prone Gunman sounds fucking rad.

And what the fuck do they do with that amazing, character-driven premise?
They have Jeremy Renner turn up and start shooting things. Fucking terrible, no-good, waste of a movie.

That promotional image looks way more racist than those you purport to have downvoted your post.
"Check out the debased things our protagonist does! Consensual sex with two black dudes!" The attitude that underpins the idea that this is breaking a taboo is fucking disgusting.
