Haven't seen it in years... Cox did make a fine mature film called "Highway Patrolman" (?).

The only line I ever feel like quoting is "Ordinary fuckin' people -- I hate em."

Oh, shit, I love this film. Sy Richardson. "You like music? You gonna love this. Was into these dudes before anyone. Asked me to be their road manager..."

I always loved and feared how the other repo men were so unpredictable. In any other movie they would have instantly become either the main character's buddies or enemies, and every action they'd take would be either helpful or antagonistic. But in RM people behave just like people (insane people, but still) do in real life; they're on their own side.

Kevin: Hi! I'm Kevin!

Napoleon: Hey buddy! How you doing? Huh? Hey don't you remember me? I was here yesterday. Heh. Listen I think I left a book of matches over in your office over there. You want to go and check for me huh?

Kevin: Sure thing.

Napoleon: Hey thanks a lot buddy.

Kevin: Any thing for you babes.

Napoleon: All right, you're beautiful. I love you.

Get a tattoo of a $100 bill on your hand!

guess how many shirts I have

detoxyDancer (sexyDancer), Friday, 6 January 2006 20:35 (eighteen years ago) link

how many ties

detoxyDancer (sexyDancer), Friday, 6 January 2006 20:36 (eighteen years ago) link

Wow, this must have been one of my first threads. God, I need to see this movie for the 6567897th time.

Nathalie (stevie nixed), Friday, 6 January 2006 20:36 (eighteen years ago) link

you better believe they're all silk

detoxyDancer (sexyDancer), Friday, 6 January 2006 20:36 (eighteen years ago) link

I have no idea when Repo Man came out. I can barely recall anything about it apart from Nicholas Cage robbing a convenience store of a package of Pampers (and even that may be a misremembering).

I only came to this thread to state that I must have at one time expressed something resembling enthusiasm for it because my wife has for decades accused it of being my favorite movie, or somehow standing for the essence of all I hold dear about the cinema. She has repeated this nostrum so many times that I now have an unmerited aversion for the thing. I doubt I shall ever hold a copy of it in my hand again, for fear my wife will see it and pounce on this fact as the vindication of her oft-stated opinion about my tastes.

So, despite my having no clear memory of it, this film and I share a deep intimate bond. Life is strange, but no stranger than my wife.

Uh dude, what Adam said, Raisin Arizona.

well alright then

A Raising Arizona/Repo Man double feature woulda been my favoritest thing ever when I was 11

(Actually it is still my favoritest thing ever)

disco violence (disco violence), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:21 (eighteen years ago) link

Speaking of disco violence, the good man pointed this out to me. Looks like the commentary tracks are the same as with the last edition, though there's some new extras?

Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:26 (eighteen years ago) link

I have the one in a metal box (with the CD). :-))))

Nathalie (stevie nixed), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:30 (eighteen years ago) link

sy richardson.

lauren (laurenp), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:31 (eighteen years ago) link

Sy Richardson is a goddamn treasure. And his performance in the rather notorious skin version of Cinderella is a clear case of someone transcending the material.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:33 (eighteen years ago) link

Whatever happened to Dick Rude?

detoxyDancer (sexyDancer), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:33 (eighteen years ago) link

I can't believe i used to like these guys

kingfish pibb Xtra (kingfish 2.0), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:35 (eighteen years ago) link

Can you imagine I still haven't listened to the CD! I have had it for more than 4 yrs now!

Nathalie (stevie nixed), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:36 (eighteen years ago) link

what the soundtrack? Jucy Bananas, fucks!

detoxyDancer (sexyDancer), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:37 (eighteen years ago) link

Yeah, I should really give it a listen.

Nathalie (stevie nixed), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:38 (eighteen years ago) link

i installed 2 way mirrors at his pad in brentwood and he came to the door in a dress

Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Friday, 6 January 2006 22:39 (eighteen years ago) link

Awwww, that doesn't mean he was a homo, Miller. A lot of straight guys like to watch their buddies fuck. I know I do. Don't you?

detoxyDancer (sexyDancer), Friday, 6 January 2006 22:40 (eighteen years ago) link

the repo man sushi line is so classic

Ever since JBR compared me to Parnell somewhere else, I feel like I should say "Not - at - alllll" as appropriate.

"Miller, you do a lot of acid? Back in the 60's?"
"He has risen!"
"Fuck you, guy"
The repo wives!

This is one of those rare films, like Spinal Tap, where all the dialogue is funny in context.

"Hey kid, you wanna earn $10?"
"Fuck you, queer"

Matt #2 (Matt #2), Saturday, 10 February 2007 21:41 (seventeen years ago) link
