    There was more in that movie than hot chicks dancing on top of a bar?

    That's all I ever caught when it was on cable. I guess I did see some scene with some talking in it, but I quickly changed the channel when that started.

      No matter how good, I just cannot bear to watch any Mel Gibson movie whenever it comes on. His personal life exploits have just so soured me on the man himself, that I don't even want to watch him onscreen. And The Bounty is one of my all-time favorite movies,

        The Bounty is on my list.

        I can separate the actor from his/her personal life. Otherwise I'd never watch a Tom Cruise, Rosie O'Donnell, or Mel Gibson movie. Rosie, you ask? She was great in "Beautiful Girls" and "League Of Their Own."

        And yes, I think Payback was Lucy Liu's first major role. Billed as "Lucy Alexis Liu" in the credits.

        Coyote Ugly was a crappy movie, but it was a fun crappy movie.

          Ben watching The Wild Bunch in 15 minute increments as I get dressed every morning. Pretty powerful movie (at the first 45 minutes so far...)

            Do not deny yourself "Road Warrior." The role is not the actor. Heck, I'd watch a Reagan movie if there were any good ones (there are not).

              Heck, I had Coyote Ugly in my DVD collection in college just to give any women we had over a chick flick option if a movie was going to be watched. Came in handy a few times. I'm sure there's probably a few guys out there that had Flashdance out on VHS just for the same reason.

                    I usually can, but for some reason, with Mel I can't. Perhaps part of it is that he hasn't aged well at all, also, and it's hard for me to see him as he is now, grumpy old man, when I grew up with the young mulleted Mel. And I've seen the Road Warrior enough that even it has lost its charm. I like Mad Max better, anyway.

                    And Beautiful Girls is just a great movie. One of the few movies that I've actually bought on dvd; I usually just go for tv season sets.

                    It may be just me, but I think The Bounty is just an amazing film. I may actually have to buy this one. The only other Gibson film I would consider buying would be Gallipoli, another great movie.

                      Get The Gringo with Gibson is a great movie, too. He plays a thief/grifter that gets caught and thrown in a unique Mexican jail: it's basically it's own city. He does what he can to get out and get his money back.

                          Mission Impossible Rogue Nation was cromulent, however the Vienna Opera House sequence was the best action movie sequence I've ever seen. I hope action filmmakers study it for years -- everything about it was perfect.

                          Also: the lead actress was outstanding.

                            Tucker and Dale vs. Evil. How did this thing not blow up at the box office? This movie is great! And the bit with the tea, it's a just a small thing, but where do they come up with this stuff? Hilarious!

                              I didn't know it came out in the box office, but I agree, it's friggin' awesome.

                                It might've been a direct to DVD release, but it's just too good for me to have not heard of it before. I was watching a series of horrible movies (I, Frankenstein - I had really low expectations and it failed to even meet them despite having Bill Nighy and Aaron Eckhart) when Tucker & Dale came up in the suggested viewings list. I read the synopsis, saw that it had Alan Tudyk and that guy who starred in Reaper (TV show), so I gave it a whirl. Freaking great!
