I wouldn't want that. His roided out body, technology enhanced physique, and sharp blonde hair make him rather intimidating. I'd go far as to say that Rocky IV is better than Citizen Kane.Thomas Crymeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05444697706815844019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18449304.post-1153946272354539662006-07-26T13:37:00.000-07:002006-07-26T13:37:00.000-07:00Yes, Crymes you are correct about that.Wait, are y...Yes, Crymes you are correct about that.<BR/><BR/>Wait, are you saying Rocky 4 ain't no good?Patrick J.

"You" meaning a general person.<BR/><BR/>I'd just like to meet that person (because there is only one).<BR/><BR/>I suspect, people are confusing kick-ass with excellent or great or poignant. A kick-ass movie, ala Rocky IV, doesn't have to be a great movie. It just has to be kick-ass.Thomas Crymeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05444697706815844019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18449304.post-1153910868653413272006-07-26T03:47:00.000-07:002006-07-26T03:47:00.000-07:00The Posiedon Adventure has been a guilty pleasure ...The Posiedon Adventure has been a guilty pleasure of mine for years. I haven't seen the remake and not sure I will, though I've heard good things about it. It's all about Gene Hackman and Shelly Winters for me. I don't know how many times I've seen it but I'll always watch it if it's on, even if I catch it half way through. <BR/><BR/>Other kick ass films for me are Face Off, Heathers, Dazed and Confused, The Goonies, 10 Things I Hate About You and I have a huge affection for the beauty pageant mockumentary, Drop Dead Gorgeous.Liannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12682537323993143410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18449304.post-1153866750284883252006-07-25T15:32:00.000-07:002006-07-25T15:32:00.000-07:00Yes, Crymelord, maybe some people might jump up an...Yes, Crymelord, maybe some people might jump up and yell that Dead Poet's kicks ass at the end of it.
