Quote HistoryQuoted: 1941 So many set-ups, one-liners cameos and sight gags. Unfortunately Belushi was not funny but his part was small. The novelization/book was apparently done before the final edit of the film, so if you read the book a lot of things that don't make sense in the movie kinda do. Very poorly edited. Typical of Harvey Wood. |

 Susan Calvin : The robot's brain is a difference engine. It's reading vital signs. It must have done... Detective Del Spooner : It did. I was the logical choice. It calculated that I had a 45% chance of survival. Sarah only had an 11% chance. That was somebody's baby. 11% is more than enough. A human being would've known that. Robots, [indicating his heart] nothing here, just lights and clockwork. Go ahead, you trust 'em if you want to. |

Soldier, its one of my favorites.
Water World as well, but I can see why it was disliked, no one liked the mean aspect of Mariner, Kevin Costners character, a stark departure of the normal hero good guy Kevin Costner roll people expected. It is similar the aversion to the John Wayne movie The Searchers, one of the best westerns ever made, but a lot of people disliked their iconic movie good guy being a mean bastard. |

Pretty obscure but I really liked "The Island".
Scarlett Johansson running around the whole movie in that white skin tight jumpsuit may have more than a little to do with it.

Wasn't perfect, but was nice seeing a Korean War movie for a change. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIvBBd8pU1s(only made $22 million on a $90 million budget; that's a flop.) They made the book part of the trailers and hype leading up to the movie. They shouldn’t have. There were too many things in the movie that made life back then more racist than it was. He was also, by his own admission, not a very good pilot, and he thought the F4U was going to kill him. Then they took parts of the book where he didn’t do the attack or what have you but in the movie he did. Had they just stuck to the book and not overplayed the racism, it would have been a much better movie. Had they played up the fact that he and his lovely wife were completely accepted in the little neighborhood they lived in at his first duty station, by a 100% white population until they arrived, it would have been so much better. People were smitten with his wife and her accent and she was the star of many a dinner party with her stories of life in the south. Instead, they made it seem like everything was a struggle because white people are bad. I mean, shit, the CGI wasn’t even that bad… |
