LOL! Such wit! |
If you've seen the movie you know what I mean.

This probably says more about me than you:
genuinely well-made: Open Range
genuinely goofy time: Cabin Fever
genuine guilty pleasure: Runaway Jury
I'd just like to say that if Open Range counts as anything but "genuinely well-made" I'll be very cross. |
Switch Cabin Fever and Runaway Jury and you've got it. I really don't like Cabin Fever, but there are a few aspects to it that I enjoy, especially the kung fu.

One is genuinely well-made = Cabin Fever
One is a genuinely goofy good time = Cabin Fever
And one is a genuinely guilty pleasure = Cabin Fever
:D

| JFK is fantastic, I think. It's my favorite Oliver Stone movie by far, but it's also one of my favorites of the 1990s: passionate, inspired conspiracy theorizing. I don't know if critiques on its historical inaccuracy are appropriate (I've heard them a lot before): the movie surpasses historical documentation to become a grand melodrama about determination and corruption. Brilliant! |

I cannot believe that anyone would buy Cabin Fever. That has got to be the biggest waste of money, and my life I have ever spent. My dear lord you men are sad!

Two words: The Astro-Zombies. Next to that everything is the purest entertainment.

That scene may just be worth it. Oh, and the funny story from the guy who was Shawn on "Boy Meets World". Fred C. Dobbs told me his name but I already forgot and don't care enough to look it up. It's an odd one.

Okay no. Pretty sure that after watching that movie I didn't want to shave my legs for like a week! Sick. And okay, the pancakes scene is great, but no it is a horrible HORRIBLE movie, and a waste of like an hour and however many minutes of my life that I will never get back! Ugh.
my mom bought:
Matrix reloaded
Brother Bear????-- I have no idea?

Rider Strong. :lol:
And Stef, I find many more redeeming things in Cabin Fever than that overrated dreck The Matrix and it's sequels. Ack!
