    Yep, that one... Haven‘t seen it, but a friend saw it recently and recommended it.

    I feel like a traitor, but I was too tired AFTER SEEING BAD RELIGION YESTERDAY to get myself to the city and for 3 hours of bland western in the cinema. So I skipped it :/ 

    Have not seen American Flyers hmm. Bike-movie… 

    My Kevin Costner year of 2024 has been:
    Waterworld
    The Postman
    No Way Out

    Might add The Untouchables as the fourth. And will see if I can find American Flyers to rent!

    If you want to get serious, you can watch The Big Chill. Costner had his big scene cut, but he still plays the body of the friend that they all come together to reminisce about.

    John Mulaney did a bit about Costner being cut out of The Big Chill at this year‘s Governors Awards:

    ^No idea. I just learned this year how to import a photo and do spoiler talk. I promise I’m not stupid. 😂

    Found it on iTunes US



    American Flyers (John Badham)

    This should be a classic of the sports movie genre! So deeply, deeply 80s in lots of ways – shallow patriotism, fitness craze, random Russians, villains being comically villainous, mustaches – I loved it!

    Enjoyed American Flyers back in the day, not seen it for many years. Not sure if it will hold up or not.

    Since I’m house sitting, watched a feel-good movie last night 
  • CarryTheZeroCarryTheZero Posts: 2,782
    That’s a good one. Need to watch it again soon. Who’s the country singer in that? Dwight Yoakam?
  • soph189soph189 Posts: 317
    Yes! Good memory. He plays the role well

    I remember liking Drag Me to Hell, but I also remember thinking it should have been R. Was waiting for some Evil Dead style nastiness.

    I never really liked Drag Me to Hell. Because of the CGI-overuse and the "Netflix before netflix" feel of the film... it feels like a TV-episode in a "Tales from the Crypt/Twilight Zone" series more than a fully developed film... nothing wrong with that, but back then I felt and I still feel it's a bit paltry and claustrophobically small. The Bank set looks like it was made for an SNL sketch.

    I do remember the theatrical showing of it back then being amazing though. A big room, filled to the brim with teenagers that scream and jumped in just the right way. Great experience. Not a super-great film.

    Agree! The way it uses the sound to tell the real story was especially amazing. I loved this film.
