I think I saw Dead Calm. Is that the one that ends with Zane getting a flare to the chest?

Dead Calm is one of those great films featuring a female lead on the cusp of A-list stardom that doesn’t get talked about nearly enough.

I saw The Phantom in theaters as a kid and just loved it. It’s been 20+ years since then so maybe it’s worth a re-watch.

Dead Calm is fucking awesome. A very early Nicole Kidman role post-BMX Bandits and Sam Neill.

I just watched The Phantom for the first time, and I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it. Like Tom says, Billy Zane strikes exactly the right tone. He’s a little stiff, he smiles a little bit too much, but he plays it exactly like Buster Crabbe would have.

Penelope Ann Miller in The Shadow. Wowza.

“The Joel Schumacher Batman era ends with the spectacular disaster Batman & Robin.”

It counts to my Polish ancestors, you bastard.

Thank you for giving me so much beauty and such good cries, Mr. Takahata.

How the FUCK do you talk about the plethora of great character actors in The Rocketeer without mentioning Ed Lauter, that most character-actoriest of character actors?

The Rocketeer was one of the best superhero movies ever. Fight me.

Mass shooting of a different type, shooting all over.

Not one mass shooting among the Greeks though. Too busy being gay, but as they say, “make love, not war”.

You know who else liked logic? the Greeks and they were super gay.

Ah the poor fool, he didn’t have a chance.

Girl #1 : “Where’s the party at?”

The flaw in his argument is that it’s reasonable and well articulated.

All true. I grew up in a law enforcement family.

There are rules, regulations, and training programs that pertain to trigger discipline.

They fail more often than they should.

That said, if the dipshit who made the call hadn’t been butthurt over a fucking game, this particular instance of awfulness wouldn’t have…

The SWAT officer who pulled the trigger is to blame. The person who called the fake incident into the police is to blame. The person who passed along the victim’s address is to blame.

Ignatiy, why is it that everytime I’m just getting on board your train, you decide to derail it by saying utter tripe like Batfleck>Baleman?
