Validation of movie excellence!

Just flipped to American Movie Classics, and guess what's on . . .

PREDATOR!

I knew it was a classic! :)

(just thought I'd share that)

 

[biglou]

Right up there with "Gone With The Wind", "Citizen Kane" and "Dumb And Dumber", eh?:debil:

 

[XRpredator]

Hey, it's on American Movie Classics! :cool:

 

[scar tissue]

Wasn't First Blood also on AMC the other night.

It's not so much the action but the dialague that makes these classics :confused:

Gone with the wind has nothing on them. (Except GWTW gives you lots and I mean lots of time to get popcorn, go to the bathroom, rebuild your motor, or take a long nap.) :p

XR I'm with you!

First Blood!

The first First Blood was incredible. I must have watched that movie about a hundred times in high school at the dollar theatre. The sequels, as do 99.9% of all sequels, stank.

You sure know how to bring a guy back to reality, Senior! ;)

 

[Senior KX Rider]

You're welcome.:) :)

Great movie and I did watch on AMC.:)

Hey, it's XRP's movie was the first thought that passed through my head... followed shortly by Man, how sad am I- my gay internet friends are creeping into my everyday life So I insulted Ahnold, then flipped to Animal Planet to watch with my little bambino.

That has to be THE quote of the day, if not the year!

L!M!A!O! :)

Predator is gay? Oh well, good for you Pred! We won't tell anybody.

 

[XRpredator]

Sheesh, Zio, now look what you've done to me! :(

I guess I'm big enough to handle it . . . :D

Oh, yeah, didn't you read? 'Pred also had the "Procedure" done...
You know...wink, wink! ;)

Don't feel bad, Zio. I thought the same thing when I saw the movie the other day. Oh, look! XRPredator's on TV! (D'oh! I have no life.)

 

[biglou]

Ditto!

Everytime I see it on TV I'm thinking, "I wonder if Pred knows this is on!"
Ditto on the "no life" comment as well...

 

[ktmboy]

Guilty as charged! My son and I watched it last night on AMC, and I thought....well, I thought.... how can I put this????..... I wonder how the Preds' jewels are fairing? :p
Yep---I got no life!:confused:

 

[XRpredator]

Whenever it's on, I also wonder if I'm watching it . . . (huh?) :confused:

I feel like some sort of messiah . . . I have touched so many lives! :)

(Watch out, Senior, I'm feeling like a legend in my own mind again!)

 

[Senior KX Rider]

Its a wonderful thing when your ;) internet friends touch your life.:) :)

Let's keep the touching to a minimum, shall we? :scream:

 

[biglou]

Full Metal Jacket?

Has "Full Metal Jacket" made it there yet? Here's a quote from one of my favorite boot camp scenes:

**** *** ***** *****, Pvt, Pyle! How in **** **** *** did you ***** **** ? I can't believe you **** ***** *****!.

Translation: Beep beep beep beepity beep beep...:D

 

[Kawidude]

Hey Pred,

I saw that on AMC as well. Did you see the trivia afterwards? I guess they originally planned on having a then-unknown Jean Claude Van Damme play the Predator, but due to a glitch in the costume, they rebuilt it and had this massive 7' guy play the character instead. It turns out the guy who played the Predator is also the same guy who played the bigfoot creature in Harry & the Henderson's. You gotta' admit, he's got some acting skills to go from an alien killing machine to a giant Ewok!

I watched it twice XRP! Gotta love that mini-gun :p
