Just realized that RW & MM were the only violations of my dumbass will not forte for more than one movie in a series rule.

FWIW, I think accusing Morbs of being anti-fun is totally wrongheaded. Do you think it's more likely that he consistently lobs contrarianism grenades into random threads out of some grave sense of duty to educate the plebes or because his refined skill at poking hornets' nests makes him titter like a giddy schoolboy?

I hate rhetorical questions.

morbz is momus jr. i can dig it. i liked momus on ilx. i like morbz on ilx. they have their fun.

scott seward, Friday, 17 February 2012 19:01 (twelve years ago) link

I think it's mostly because he thinks if he pokes those hornets enough, they'll get the point and stop stinging

valleys of your mind (mh), Friday, 17 February 2012 19:02 (twelve years ago) link

Morbs doesn't lob contrarianism grenades, though. He just acts pissy and tells everyone how stupid they are, while rarely engaging on why we should be ashamed of appreciating "cable junk."

(FWIW, I don't dislike Morbs. He's just like some precocious little kid who constantly makes me roll my damn eyes and sigh exasperatedly. Drives me nuts but I can't stay mad at him.)

i hate myself for not voting in this poll.

you should

Predator is the high-water mark and there'll be no Lethal Weapon / Point Break / Top Gun / Under Siege.

"Point Break" placed today and I fully expect "Lethal Weapon" and "Top Gun" in the top 10.

I also hate myself for not voting in this poll, there is no way "Terminator" and "NxNW" should have missed the top 10.

i know, i do too.

and myself.

Kiarostami bag (milo z), Friday, 17 February 2012 19:10 (twelve years ago) link

I wonder how many people actually voted.

wolf kabob (ENBB), Friday, 17 February 2012 19:11 (twelve years ago) link

scott seward, Friday, 17 February 2012 19:11 (twelve years ago) link

Morbs is a lovely curmudgeon. Besides, the Muppets wouldn't be be half as fun without Statler & Waldorf's lame takedowns.

Starship Troopers is pretty rad. So cheese but so A+ with its effects and fighting sequences.

Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 17 February 2012 19:25 (twelve years ago) link

it's kinda perfect. in its way.

scott seward, Friday, 17 February 2012 19:26 (twelve years ago) link

Starship Troopers is like 5th Element in that my wife will be excited to watch it and i'm fine w/ in theory (like i don't just dismiss it because it's "dumb") but i don't actually get any enjoyment out of seeing it.

^^^ didn't help that I'd read the book first, which is much much better.

Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 17 February 2012 19:33 (twelve years ago) link

poll is great for sure, my only complaint is the ilx quotes are so old and are all by tombot

lag∞n, Friday, 17 February 2012 19:34 (twelve years ago) link

E, you should try Starship Troopers.
It absolutely fits the thread title, and is a lolfest imo.
