Favorite Quote:

[Zabka]

LOL! Karate Kid is sort of like Rocky (but not quite that caliber--Rocky won best picture, Karate Kid had Pat Morita nominated for best supporting actor)--very good first movie followed by increasingly worse movies (alhthough Rocky2 was just as good and funnier) where the final movie is something that you would rather believe never actually happened. The Next Karate Kid starring Hillary Swank? Give me a break. Rocky 5 starring Tommy "I got AIDS, no I don't" Morrison? Pitiful. The fact that stallone is making a Rocky 6 when he is like 60 years old is pathetic.

But Karate Kid was one of the most rewatchable movies out there for me---that's part of how I determine my favorites. I can watch stop what I am doing and get engrossed in rewatching any of the 10 I listed above. Shawhank is also like that for me. Rewatchable and quotable rank high on my list. Oh that reminds me--BOOGIE NIGHTS!!! One of my favorite movies of all time.

Top Gun would have been up there for quotability, but that's mostly due to the unintentional comedy. Karate Kid is incredibly quotable--as are Fletch, Fast Times, Trading Places, Monty Python, Spinal Tap--wow.

Norm--on the Waterfront is definitely a phenomenal movie. I saw it in 10th grade before I even realized that it was Brando as a young man well before Godfather.

Christ--you like some pretty bad movies! Replacements? Waiting? Gone in 60 Seconds? Those aren't even close to watchable on cable! Icould have written those movies in a drunken stupor in high school. Although I am with you on Road Trip--I prefer it over Old School actually. Then again Animal House was the best of that brand of comedy.

Finally--Mace, it's not just my avatar--it's my handle too! Zabka is the last name of the actor who played the bad guy in Karate Kid. He played the bad guy in Just one of the guys, back to school, European vacation, and a couple others too. He was the perfect WASPY anti-hero in 80s movies...like James Spader, but a tough guy!

I find it interesting that nobody lists musicals--not manly enough for most I suppose (and most of them suck). But some of the more enjoyable movies over the years ahve been musicals--West Side Story, Hair, Grease, even Moulin Rouge (less for the music more for the absolute originality of it all), and that holiday staple--Sound of Music. Have I convinced everybody that I am a girl now? Nah, I am just a film buff.

[CHRIST]

haha zabka, i own grease i think my was funny, it had orlando jones and that made it good, i cant see how u dont like it, its a funny movie, Waiting is so good, i love the movies that ryan reynolds does, except that dumbass movie with anna faris from the scary movie quadrilogy which should be on the list with all these movies, I dont know ive always enjoyed gone in 60, i like the cars, but angelina looks pretty bad with the blonde hair. hah im curious did anyone notice the white detective in this movie, is the bad guy porn director in girl next door. im surprised no one has listed any adam sandler like waterboy and happy gilmore
