I don't know...have those two venerable guys finally ran out of gas? Are they typecast now? At least DeNiro has done some comedies with Ben Stiller and Billy Crystal....I long for the days of movies like HEAT.

[Raymond Luxury Yacht]

Heat was amazing. Haven't seen too much of Val Kilmer since then.

He followed the Kevin Costner path to success in that he climbed a few steps and the dove off.....endlessly falling....just falling....

There's a new flick coming out about the true story of Genghis Khan called Mongol....I want to see it even though it's not a domestic film.

Kiss kiss bang bang had Val in it and it was pretty fucking funny...

also I think Kilmers best role to date is that of Doc Holliday in Tombstone...

yup hands down...

New trailer for the latest Pacino/Deniro teamup Righteous Kill. I don't know whether to care about this because these two guys are capable of such quality or to be terrified it's a turd in the blender...almost ready to serve....

It's so strange. They're brilliant actors and then they're making something like this. From the trailer it looks like some crap mix of hollywood cops and 15 minutes.

When you look at what those two are producing now a days and what they did in the past, I'm beginning to believe what Francis Ford Coppola said in an interview. They got rich, they got fat, they got lazy, they lost the edge.

It's funny, what I most liked about Heat was Pacino and De Niros one on one conversations. I'd like to see a scene with them where the dialogue was written by Quinten Tarrantino. It would blow your head off

[Optimus Prime]

Yes but he's also been in more movies that you can't name or count....

But yes, Tombstone was awesome.

The Man. There willl never be a better representation of Doc. Kilmer should have an oscar for that role, and another for The Doors.

I saw a ad for Titanic which will be on 18 times this weekend for some reason....reminded me how that was the worst movie ever.

That and that damn theme song...ugh....rip my fucking eyes out.

[Cougar]

The reason Kilmer doesn't have an oscar is because he is a total arse. It's not just about the acting

I'm still a firm defender of the second VHS tape in the Titanic film. THe part where the boat is sinking and all those foolish poor people are trying to get out and then the guy shoots one of them...is totally great. Plus the part where the boat goes vertical and everybody's falling off and bouncing off the propellors and shit...how is that not awesome.

Oh yeah, and the winslet boobies are nice

Other than that though...the movie doesn't deserve 18 playings. Good god.

[cerveza_fiesta]

oh yeah,

going to see indy jones tonight. Aside from the cunning "it will never be as good as the original" comments you hear from fanfolk, is it total shit or should I brace for a dosage of pure unadaultered win.

[Dr Trouble]

I thought it was good.

Certainly better then The Temple of Doom

[Illuyankas]

To save time on the Titanic front: http://www.youtube.c...h?v=5LtYk7wsFnk

And a spoiler-ridden rant on the Indy flick, in three parts.

[Morgoth]

I generally liked it, though you could clearly see the signs of George Lucas' greasy fingers trying to ruin all things good in this flick too

[cerveza_fiesta]

oh noes...lucas strikes again.

we need to invent caption pictures involving george lucas, and their use could be when somebody is ruining something cool for somebody else.

[Cougar]

If Lucas actual talked to anyone outside his sychophantic circle instead of sitting round wacking off ewoks on that ranch then he might be able to make a decent film, the fact is he is so out of touch with what would be cool he cocks everything up

[Coco with marshmallows]

my only notable response to indy four having seen it is:

Spoiler

either Spielberg or Lucas decided to get rid of part of the iconic indy uniform. WHERE WAS THE PISTOL DAMMIT!

also, no one laugh out loud point like there has been in all the other films.

overall, very meh.

Spoiler

The pistol is in the scene when they first find the first temple with the crystal skull. You can also see the holster through various scenes, it's there, just not well used.

[Raymond Luxury Yacht]

Spoiler

I haven't seen Indy 4 yet, and am not sure I want to. Rent it, sure, but not in the theater I think. I haven't heard much good about it. Oh, and this is in a spoiler tag because i felt like it.

[Thelomen Toblerone]

Saw Indy 4 last night, was partially drunk but still thought the end was ridiculous. Overall good fun though, plenty of cool action and humour, on a par with Temple of Doom maybe, would've been better except:

Spoiler

that stupid bit where Shia Le Poof is swinging through the trees like tarzan on f*cking speed. He outruns a car for god's sakes, having never even tried swinging on a vine before. Madness.

Also, this was clearly a joint sequel: Indiana Jones: Close Encounters of the Fourth Kind. So several skeletons smashing together make some shitty alien do they, who then pops into a cunningly hidden flying saucer and disappears into "the space between space?!"

Give me a break, what a shocking ending. And death. By. Knowledge. Oh dear.
