Your Top Ten Movies of The Decade

[huedell]

Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back was by far the Best Dick and Fart Movie of the Decade..., if one is into them.

posts like these are probably solid evidence on why I should stick to his Q&As

I hate the fact that they took everything away from Rocky in 5 to begin with .

What did they take away from ROCKY 5 besides the bad taste left in the
majority of the public's mouths as an ending for the series?

(I personally thought 5 was okay)

I did like Rambo 4 ... the chacter finally had some sorta closure at the end.

Rambo 4 was pretty dang good..if 5 gets made I bet it'll be good too.

And I found a renewed appreciation for Brad Pitt. Pitt is awesome as a bad-***.

Pitt's Character was highly entertaining on so many level's... even though he seemed to be a bit stero-typed of the perception of Southern Folk, mixed with an over the Top Addressed hatred for all things Natzi ... I did Laugh and Found myself having Great Humor for the Character.

I also really Liked Pitt in Mr. & Miss. Smith as well as Troy .

At the End of 4 .. He was on the Top. Fame, Money, That he overly worked his Arse off to Achieve threw His Life time ... From the Opening Scene's in 5..., The Dude could not fight anymore, or was not suppost to, Lost his Fortune, had to move Back to the Ghetto and Lost everything. Whether or Not that can be reality to some of these People that do Hit Fame,.. I disliked it in Rocky,.. and didn't want to see the character go in that Direction. So as a Fan of the Itallian Stallion ..., The series Stops at 4 With me.., and I have no love after that.

Like I said,.. if 1 is not a fan of this kinda Subject Material,.. I could see why No One Would Care ..., But having lived the Life Stlye at 1 period in Time,.. It's probably the Funniest Movie for that Kind of Humor Ever.

Dean Cook in My Best Friends Girl Friend ,.. Waiting, as well as the Pinapple Express are somewhat Entertaining as well.

I a bit confused on why you brought up 5 then (if it stops at 4)....but okay.

I forgot PINEAPPLE EXPRESS (and SUPERBAD to boot)...
it's possible I migt include those two in a "tops list"
---I really enjoyed those.

I brought up 5 to express my Displeasure with the Final Film..., because it was more of the same.

Ohhhhhhh..I truly get it now...

ROCKY BALBOA (the movie) didn't "take away" anything from ROCKY 5---
you meant that ROCKY 5 took away everything from the CHARACTER Rocky.

Understood.

I'll give you it was stereo-typical, but stereotypes (in this case) are certainly based on a reality. As humans, we short-cut our thinking by building stereotypes.Sometimes, they can be offensive or at the least, way overblown. Being from this part of the US, having WW2 aged great uncles who were almost THAT bad-arse, with that same hatred for "Natzis".....it ain't that much of a stretch. If you would have cut any one of them loose..........they might could'a done it.

Pitt, being from this neck of the woods, knew that and drew from it for the character.

I'll say this....part of why I liked his character was that he seemed soooo familiar.

Well Sure ..., but I have met the character's "Mentality" before,.. and He does come off somewhat Familiar .

It's not a Stretch at all , nore was I Trying to imply anything negative in reguards to his character's protrail...., I think we all have ,.. or in my case had,.. that GrandFather and Great Uncles Who lived and fought, then we got to hear the stories .

Naw, I liked your post. I just wanted you to know, if you thought that portrayal might have offended any of us because it was of a certain stereotype, I have to say at least Aldo was willing to work with Jews and that is something we don't get a lot of credit for in this neck of the woods. Even though most of the world does not realize that many of us here are of us Jewish decent...including me. The History of this part of the country includes a population made up of people who were ethnically German, racially Jewish, who escaped Germany to Russia, and from Russia to the US around the turn of the century. Mix that in with some Native American (and Aldo was part) and Scots-Irish and you have some supreme bad-arses with a major chip on their shoulder.

Um....I might add that overblown sterotypes are part of what makes
watching QT's best flicks a thoroughly entertaining experience.

Well, that and a pair of testicles.

Big Coen Bros. fan and I don't watch Lebowski enough...still a great line.
I consider the Coen flicks more consistent than QT's too.
