'Potential'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
"I, like, like Edward because he's like...a vampire but not, you know, like, all vampire-like. And the love is so...love-ish and junk. It's AWESOME!"
Those interviewees were some serious closed-head-injury cases.
I don't know - I think it's more a case of tween/teenager-dom. Lord knows I couldn't have been much more articulate at that age if I had been interviewed about something I really liked (and I liked some crap. Young Guns, I'm looking at you).
And I will admit an inordinate fondness for the silly Queen of the Damned movie.
I love the book. Never seen the movie.
I don't think the book is quality *literature,* mind you; I just love it for all its bombastic crazy-ass excess.
Sort of like Moulin Rouge.

Exactly. That's why it's a comfort re-read of mine. Because when I'm tired and cranky and don't want to think, I want to read (or watch) bombastic crazy.
Judge Dredd is underrated.
Cough.
I liked Judge Dredd ! Also, Demolition Man.
Plei, my sister.
We should have a crappy-90's-action movie marathon. We can do Judge Dredd and Demolition Man and The Last Boy Scout...
Judge Dredd is underrated.
Any movie that uses the phrase "send in the clones", and it's not an intentional laugh line, is doing...something.
OTOH, I do love DEMOLITION MAN. I just wish that Snipes and Stallone had switched roles. Stallone never would have gone for it at that point in his career, but I think it would have been great.
The Last Boy Scout...
Ah, another one I love.
We could add HUDSON HAWK too.
I won't say THE LONG KISS GOODNIGHT, because it's not a crappy movie at all.
OTOH, I do love DEMOLITION MAN.
In the future, all restaurants are Taco Bell!
I saw part of that on TV the other week and was cracking up over Geena Davis being more of a badass than Samuel L. Jackson.

This, among many other things (including too many good lines to quote here, though I think I tried the last time I saw it).
Love Hudson Hawk and The Long Kiss Goodnight.
LOVE THEM!
