  2. AG/DC wrote: Dont' forget Lost World: Jurassic Park. I didn't. I think an added challenge for New York should be one list exclusively for Queens and one list exclusively for the Bronx. That should keep us from having to scroll down a long list at least.
  3. San Diego Almost Famous Anchorman Attack of the Killer Tomatoes & sequels Bring it On Honey, I Shrunk the Kids Little Nikita The Lost World Top Gun & pretty much any other movie that involves the Navy Traffic
  4. San Francisco has Bullitt and all or most of the Dirty Harry films. The Bond film with the Christopher Walken villian is also set there in part. St. Pete also has Loren Cass and, um, Cocoon: The Return, I guess. No excuse for forgetting Dirty Harry. Tales of the City is also iconic San Francisco. Electric Dreams is a lesser-known favorite of mine.
  5. Kansas City In Cold Blood The Day After Mr. and Mrs. Bridge Article 99 Kansas City
  6. St. Petersburg, FL Cocoon On edit: The Rookie, a movie about a Tampa Bay Devil Ray seems to be an obvious choice but according to IMDB was filmed almost entirely in Texas, with scenes at the Ballpark at Arlington.

  8. sharpie wrote: I read the book and liked it. Which means I don't want to see the movie. Ditto, with the added annoyance that the book was set in the Boston area but moved to New York for the movie. No offense to New York but I'd just like one Boston movie that doesn't involve bloodthirsty Irish mobsters and/or obsessed Red Sox fans.
  9. Perhaps the zombies can moan Shakesperian soliloquies.
  10. In honor of the film version of Beowulf opening today, here is the best Crane Pool Forum thread ever referencing Beowulf. This thread has greater imagination and better writing than the film appears to have.
  11. So I take it this movie will be set some time in the 1950's when Indiana Jones is approximately the same age that Harrison Ford is now? Not that Ford/Jones have ever had a 1-to-1 age matchup since that would make Indiana Jones 42 in 1935, 39 in 1936, and 47 in 1938.
  12. Ageist. She still looks good. And she's been in plenty of movies since Raiders of the Lost Ark. IMDB.
  13. But Vic Sage hates pennant races.
  14. "I did things no dog should. They will haunt me forever." Hillarious.
  15. I didn't say The Frames suck, I just said that one particular song is overwrought. Anyhow, thank you for letting me know that the movie is better than its trailer.
  16. By looking like crap I wasn't referring to production values, but that the trailer made it look like the typical cliche-ridden tragic romance. With music (including an overwrought theme song courtesy of The Frames). And brogues! Whoopee!
  17. I saw a trailer for Once this weekend. It looked like crap. Is it?
  18. Ditto Dickshot.
  19. Ghostbusters rules. The sequel sucked!
  20. The 1903 version is much better. A classic Western filmed in New Jersey and only 12 minutes long. And then that bandit shoots at the audience. So scary!
  21. I never got into Deep Space Nine. It was too much like a soap opera, Melrose Place in space! And how can they be "deep space" when they're right next to an inhabited planet?
  22. I think the Star Trek franchise needs to rest for 15-20 years to regain freshness. I loved Star Trek and Star Trek: The Next Generation, but they've really just beat it to death the past 10 years or so.
  23. Should have "Bourne to be wild" as an option (if you're going for bad puns).
  24. Don't forget the porn version E3: The Extra Testicle.
