You make me feel as welcome as Powers Boothe was in this Cajun bayou:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7V6gITreRA&sns=em Great movie btw. Not too artsy fartsy or high brow.

Lucas Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 (edited) This is all a bit "chick flick" "Arty Farty" "High Brow" stuff for me. Like saying.... "Oh yes I have a real appreciation of the work of Jean Luc Goddard and soo love European films in black and white with subtitles that make NOO sense at all" Can we please get back to some normal blue collar more "manly" films that us guys can go to a bar to watch and drink beer and talk about muscle cars together about. Of course you have to realise I am being provocative and ironic and satirical and just trying to provoke a reaction. (Or am I?) You decide? Please no insults involving 4 letter words. Any other insults are most welcome and thoroughly deserved :hail: :hail: Love Stevie XX :P :P :P ;) ;) ;) :D :D :D :cool: Steve, examples please In the meantime, watch I Saw The Devil and get back to me .. We'll discuss this one man-to-man Well Lucas I was being ironic (slightly) it just seems that a lot of the posts on this thread are like "Well I know more obscure and more intelligent films than you!" Anyway that is just my inferiority complex coming through and the fact that I am so uncultured and not sophisticated (no irony or sarcasm meant) Ok I will stick up for the blue collar lads Firstly I am not a fan of anything involving Sly or Segal or Brucey W Arnie is well.... he is just Arnie an has a certain charm. I like blokes films, but good ones OK.

Steve Steve, that is a good list, but you misunderstood my question ... When I asked for examples, I meant examples of the "arty farty" and other films here you don't care for .. But that is water under the bridge .. And while I did laugh at your "man to man" link, that quickly changed when I read you post about JohnnyBlaze, to which I must take exception .. Steve, I don't think you should confuse "control freak" with having an opinion, and, the ability to discuss that opinion with others who may not share it ... Blaze is the finest person on this forum, and while he and I share a lot in common as to what we like, there are also examples quite the opposite .. So with that in mind - having such different opinions on some things - how is it that he and I get along so well ?? Because we both act like men and don't let a difference of opinion about, in the grand scheme, trivial things get in the way of mutual respect .. Blaze did not include Buffalo 66 on the list of recently talked about films - which is the last one I have watched, and could well have been one of your "arty farty" movies ..
