seeing his standup does not change this impression.

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.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Bev speaks for me wrt Linda Hunt, and her awesome performance in The Year of Living Dangerously. I'm always delighted to find her in things - but I had no idea she was in Pocahontas! I'm guessing Grandmother Willow?
scurries of to imdb
Yes indeed. Oh, well, good for her!

I loved Costner in Fandango, but then, I have an unreasoning love for that movie and its entire cast.
Agreed on wishing they would have developed the relationship between Paden and Stella more.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
He went on to make Waterworld And then somehow he didn't learn his lesson, and then he made The Postman.
My Theory Of Kevin Costner is that he's good if he's making a sports movie. He's charming as hell in Tin Cup (which also has Cheech and Rene Russo), and I love him in Bull Durham and American Flyer.

Fandango deserves a lot of love.

Because books.
I loved him in Bull Durham and A Perfect World and actually Dances With Wolves, although that started grate after it was the only movie ever shown on TV for years, it seemed. Oh, also No Way Out. That was the Navy one, right?

“Not dead yet!”
Yeah, I did like No Way Out a lot-- that was before Sean Young completely descended into the craxy and they had great chemistry.
American Flyers was great, but I generally like Costner best as some sort of rebel.

I have to toss Field of Dreams and For Love of the Game as counter arguments.

“Not dead yet!”
Yeah, but Field of Dreams wasn't really a sports movie.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
perhaps not, but it is about the love of a sport. sports are inextricably linked to the movie. sports are played. I think it is a sports movie.
kind of like how "shawshank redemption" is a prison movie. It ain't Attica, but it's a prison movie.
