'twas a good one. Victor, how do find the time to watch all these flicks? Between work, the gym, AA meetings, life on life's terms, reading, and going to bed at 11:00: Hard to find 2 consecutive hours to view a movie. At best I'm able to do 3 (but usually 2) movies a week.

He's been trying to put me on low sex diet for years, but I am still refusing.Movies... there are periods. Right now I am trying to catch one good one a night, not always happening. But then there are dry spells when you are just too busy doing something else.
I don't go to no AA meetings... I simply pour myself a drink - saves a lot of time!
Bed at 11 is luxury. It was 1am last night - had to stay up to finish watching The Usual Suspects. Saw it before, but it was on cable, so why not see it again? Not a bad film.
The Usual Suspects...I am afraid it is a very bad film, naive, make for surperficial effects, try hard to look strange, I saw it twice, to be certain.
Well, you sometimes have to apply different scales. I would not approach the Usual Suspects with the absolute one, only the one for its particular genre.When judged this way it is far better than many in its category. Yes, I agree, it is naive, especially on the multiple viewings, but still it is way above most of the REAL trash you see in that class.
I particularly loved the performance of (NO, not Kevin Spacey!!!) Pete Postlethwaite who played Kobayashi, and Stephen Baldwin. They were the most interesting to watch, as Kevin surely overplays in many spots.
Chazz Palminteri was also quite good.
I certainly agree with Mr. Postlehwait! Even he do not choose always the right vehicle for his acting, he sure can!
But the point is, the film noir genre, had not really survived the 40īs.
I much more prefered " LA Confidential " it was just a pot- pourri but it has some brio!
How about LESS sex Warren? Look at Victor & I !
" Look at Victor and I" --less sex? I didn't know you two were an item. How lovely to have you both sharing on the Asylum. Do you do it while you watch movies? It's hard with sub titles, isn't it? lol..peace, warren
Victor will be happy to read this words, but Audiophilander will also be.
How a curious breed you are!
Donīt you know that there is a " pause " button on every remote?PS: How about a three some? You will be able to watch more films then....
we may have to take this over to another forum..I never thought of the pause button...easy enough for the one on the bottom...
I wonder where is Audiophilander.....
