Hook-1991 Steven Spielberg

[Figuremod73]

The movie with Davis is Cutthroat island, anyone remember it?

"Cutthroat Island" was incredibly terrible. I just saw it recently, actually.

[Brazoo]

I liked it and still do. But then, I liked Waterworld.

I liked "Waterworld" too.

I liked "Waterworld" too.

With no land in sight...I wonder how they cultivated all that tobacco for their constant smoking?

That was directed by Renny Harlin, not Spielberg-- You're talking apples and oranges there, dude. Actually, more like apples and elephants.

Hydroponics.

Waterworld made it's money back and then some. It's success convinced Universal to let Costner make The Postman, which wasn't really that bad. I read the book and I like how he made it his own. I feel the premise on Postman is very sound. Still how can you run over-budget on Postman when it's a post-apocalyptic film set in the country-side?

[Brazoo]

Renny Harlin is basically an insane person who got to direct a few movies for some reason.

Though "Deep Blue Sea" is one of my favorite guilty pleasure movies though.

Always found Hook very boring... borderline unwatchable.

Hook might have been better if they used Jim Carey instead of Robin Williams.

I was never a fan of Peter Pan, not even as a kid .... so for me Hook was a guaranteed failure no matter what they did

[Figuremod73]

Im thinking seriously about hunting it down and giving it another try. I havent seen it in years. Im suprised sometimes what others like compared to myself . (Maybe i dont have any taste, yipes!)

Huge fan of Sanford and Son, but wasnt aware of a Grady Show, huh. Does the Grady Show have anything to do with those later episodes, the ones where Lamont is gone, and that huge redneck guy lives with Fred?

(Just realized I posted this in the wrong spot, it was meant to go along with the thread about the Fred Sanford doll.)
