Just how many lockers do they go through before they record the ones with the Michaelangelo or a few hundred grand in cash hidden in them?

They also seem to just make up the prices from a random number generator.

Dave Hester:  This TV stand...I would sell it in my shop for 1000 dollars
Darrell: This is a 275 dollar bill!
Jerrod and his whore wife: Who cares what they think?
Barry: Hey! Look at my hot rod and cult leader jacket!

:lol:

...pretty strong cast too; Kevin Coster, Powers Boothe, Tom Berenger and Bill Paxton.

Holy shit.  My pants are a bromance factory.

What you got against Bill Paxton?

Fine supporting actor with a cult following in his own right (game over, man; ass like a 10 year old boy), but simply can't touch the raw masculinity of Tom Berenger, the sheer amount of scene-chewing over the years of Powers Boothe, and...well, you all know how I feel about the living legend, Kevin Costner.

edit: Although he did a great job in Frailty, he loses points for the pirate earring in Titanic.  C'mon.

You get teary watching "The Postman" don't you?  :P

Taint.


BTW, The Postman was a very good book that was a very very bad movie.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

I don't think KC is producing/directing this one, and it appears to be more of an ensemble cast...thus any taint shouldn't apply.

If a post 1990 non-western Kevin Costner project doesn't have a Baseball Bat or Sean Connery in it it is crap; basta.

I'm actually on your side, I rather like Costner.  Especially in roles like The Untouchables.

But the movies that came primarily from him are generally mediocre (I won't say awful, like Viking), while at the same I think they are also visually spectacular. (i.e. Dances with Wolves/The Postman).

Waterworld, is of course, the stinker of an exception.

And who among us doesn't have a Waterworld somewhere in our lives, hmmm?  John 8:7, bitches.

And Viking simply hasn't been touched by Message in a Bottle yet.  :P

You know how i know you're gay...
Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son

Tonitrus

I've never understood how a romantic film about straight-love can be considered "gay".
