Currently going .379 / .471 / .483 // .953 in the South Atlantic League.

Sure, but switching from impact at the major league level to major impact is shifting goal posts.
-
Well, there's Wuilmer Becerra. And Wilmer Flores if he lands there. Possibly den Dekker if he develops the stick to stick.

This was remade a few years back with Alexander Skarsg�rd as an American Charlie. I haven't seen either but I'd be so much more intimidated if the mob placing my home under siege was led by a guy with one of those Scandanavian vowel accents in his name. (Shudder.)

Oh, it opens with the two as children, featuring Mickey Rooney as the child "Blackie Gallagher" who grows up to be Clark Gable. That could... happen...

Having worked our way through The Thin Man series, we settled this film also featuring Myrna Loy and William Powell, with a side dose of Clark Gable thrown in to make it love triangle with skinny mustaches on two of the corners. Two orphans grow up as unrelated brothers. One plays it straight and studies hard and becomes a virtuous DA with a bright future in politics. The other becomes a gambler, a stylish lowlife, a criminal, a rake. Despite their divergent paths, they retain their mutual affection, and one woman loves them both. Um... this is what movies used to sorta be like, but...

Rainy-Assed Lara is starting 2013 the way he ended 2012, with six scoreless innings against Rome. He gave up a mere two hits in the 4-0 Savannah victory, striking out six Romans and walking one.

It's all hap'n'n' in Savannah this year.

Nah, Willets was on that in Post 2.
-
Been watching for a long time, now.

Rhino. I take back everything I ever said about the gallery of Spidey-villains.
-
Which is QUITE an accomplishment, I think.
-
Dude, Seaquest.

I don't think admission is really an overarching theme in some of those, but good job.
-
Good one. There was sorta a romantic angle in that, wasn't there?
-
Risky Business, too.

What's to think? A huge step forward in the art and science of dramatic film. A huge step backwards for the culture of the nation.

There you go. Turns out, Turkish prisons don't compare so poorly on the world prison scale, and the Turks were pretty pissed about how Oliver Stone turned them into a stereotype.

You'd think the being the Jewish one of the trio of contemporary brown-haired method actors (along with Pacino and DeNiro) would get him typecast. But instead, with those two being Italian-American, the typecasting played in his favor. They got to be mobsters and cops and he got to be everything else. And if Hollywood wanted a more caricatured Jewish performance, they could go with Richard Dreyfuss. (Thanks, Spielberg!) The field was wide open for him in a way.
-
I think there are certain movies from the seventies that provoked such a visceral reaction so as to permanently insinuate a new phrase into our national lexicon of metaphors. Midnight Express gave us "Turkish prison" and this movie gave us "Nazi dentist" --- two phrases used regularly today even by folks who have never seen or perhaps heard of either film.

That winter, the Mets acquired George Foster, and the Yanks acquired Ken Griffey and Dave Collins. The Newsday backpage headline at the start of spring training: "NOW PLAYING IN NEW YORK: REDS."
-
I just want to apologize for all youse who posted in this thread. Frayed Knot, themetfairy, Ashie... even Willets who posted though you may not have seen the film... I'm sorry. You told me this plane was going down and going down hard and I climbed on board anyhow.

FOR THE WORLD IS HOLLOW... AND I HAVE TOUCHED THE SKY!
Edgy MD replied to Vic Sage's topic in Film Review Forum
How about films where the environmental reality is pretty much stable, but the protagonist him- or herself turns out not to be who they think they are? Examples include... spoilers... Angel Heart The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus Maybe Blade Runner if you believe one or two of the eleven cuts circulating of this film are meant to imply in the end that Decker is a replicant. Maybe Total Recall, depending on your read of the ending, but I guess it qualifies one way or the other. -
Poo-poo ka-ka. Robert Zemeckis may want to reconsider Back to the Future IV. Go for it. I mean... it would be a better idea than Flight II.

Of course, you're spoiling all these movies for me. Except Sliding Doors. I was never going to see that anyway.
