the only boy that was not cute in the Outsiders was Tom Cruise, which is totally telling

I've never made it all the way through the movie. I watched up to where there's a stabbing by some fountain and then my presentiments of impending doom were just too much, couldn't take the pressure, had to turn it off and send back the DVD.

ok
you win

outsiders are comically adorable

i think i like donald sutherland more though
love that guy's EYEBROWS
i guess if we're being honest i would vote la bamba

Laurel - so you missed all of Patrick Swayze's shirtless scenes

i think i like donald sutherland more though
love that guy's EYEBROWS

Yes -- and he has that great smile -- like in Kelly's Heroes and Dirty Dozen. The guys in Dirty Dozen are also overall pretty hot, too.

Young Guns because I would rather hang out with a bunch of outlaw cowboys robbin' trains and banks than with a bunch of emos with giant, class-issue chips on their shoulders who don't do anything bit complain and fight Soces and rescue orphans from burning buildings.

Regulators, mount up! >>>>>>>>>>>>> Stay gold, Pony Boy.

But! But dark horse candidate The Lost Boys is really my pick for the win.

but the outsiders hang out in bars where Tom Waits is the bouncer, plus Rob Lowe's character is really sweet and cooks and wants to keep the family together.

I remember the first time I saw that movie. It was on TV one Sunday afternoon and the "Stay gold, Pony Boy" part came on and I just sobbed and sobbed. Turns out, I was days away from getting my first period.

Everyone in Young Guns is too smirky in a smarmy, unpleasant way -- to me! Never saw that movie either, though.

The Outsiders dress awesomely. I mean, pick any; would pash.

Apparently I prefer outright hostility to an excess of self-confidence.

though tbh that picture is: l-r: wtf hampster?, <3, aw, <3, aw, <3, aw

Dirty Dozen even moreso, obv, because they are class issues all grown up and with senses of humor. And stubble.

except for the Telly Savalas character who is a misogynist sociopath

C. Thomas Howell gives me the creeps. I have no rational basis for that; he just does.

TBF I haven't seen any of these movies in a million years. I might think differently as an old lady than I did as a girl on the verge of becoming a woman.

something about this guy is so magical! LOVE him

Cassavetes is a total babe in Dirty Dozen

I haven't seen any of them at all; I spent the '80s in a box and now that I know all movies about outsiders and malcontents are sure to end badly, it's too late for me to be willing to engage with them anymore.

le sigh

^^ like that is the grim smirk of Camus' absurd hero right there

Honestly if Ray Winstone, Paul Bettany, Vinnie Jones, Terrance Stamp, Malcolm McDowell and all those dudes kept making British gangster crime movies, I would watch every. single. one of them, even if all that changed was the characters' names.

hahaha

me too

Actually in Love, Honor, and Obey they pretty much all use their own real names, anyway! Plus there's "Avenues and Alleyways" being sung at gangster karaoke events throughout, so great.

this thread got hot fast!

i will never choose btwn my beloved young guns and adored outsiders

I've never seen either film, do I fail 80s teen girl? ;_;

Outsiders book or movie, <3<3<3 forever
<3 any SE Hinton dudes actually

i think it is okay trayce because you are australian!

i think both these movies are pretty american. or mythical-american. though maybe that means they would have been good exports. i don't know, maybe you were just not obsessed with emilio estevez like my best friend at the time was and so needed to watch these movies over and over.

But I've seen the Lost Boys!

that's the most important one!

kate78 otm re: they should be delivered gratis to the women of the world

There used to be single cigarette vending machines, BTW, at least one of which delivered them to you already lit.

:)

guys at my new student teaching placement i am teaching the outsiders to seventh graders! we are watching the movie at the end of the unit!

Hands up, who first saw that movie in class? *raises hand*

Not a huge fan - people were more into 'Rumble Fish' down my way - but 'That Was Then, This Is Now' was shot in Minneapolis and some classmate's mom was in charge of extras casting, so a few girls from my class have small speaking parts in the film.

Say!

this might create unnecessary oppositions: like Clooney w/pug puppy vs. Varg w/cat

There is room in our hearts for both.

This is not a zero sum game.

and that is why this thread is so great.

~fart~

why all handsome men with pugs?
