My favourite worst movie is "Battle of the Bulge", 1965.
What, are you kidding?!? Best one liner, ever!
"It can be done!"
[:D]
Oh, that movie was a stinker. But Lecivius is wrong. The best line from that movie, when "Pieper" is rolling into the untouched American fuel depot:
"No shooting please". [:D]
Robert Shaw makes a great bad guy. In any movie.

Wasn't Shaw one of the good guys in The Deep (along with Nick Nolte)? That means he got to see Jaqueline Bissett in her prime in a bathing suit in an ocean movie. Goodness. Gracious. Me. My.

Here she is in a wholesome pose that's simply delightful to look upon.
I won't post images of her in
The Deep, choosing instead the high road.

Now we're cookin'! Using the usual tried-and-true method, we've gone off on the tangent we all agree on.

With all due respect, if there's anyone capable of taking a conversation off the rail, it's me. Please see post 126 for further proof.

I resent that! I'm much, much better at derailing threads than you.

This must be publicity photo for the rumored sequel to GoT (yet untitled) - Sandor (the Hound) Clegane undergoes reconstructive surgery on his face and retires to Qarth, living out the rest of his days as a private eye.

Jokes on you - post #126 is Lecivius's. Post numbers are at the bottom of the post. Just look at the last post in any thread.

By providing the wrong post number, I further helped take this thread off the rails. I was both right-in that I could do that-and wrong-about the post number.
Honestly, Ormster, try to keep up will 'ya? [:'(]

Don't get weird guys!
Anyway I did like The Thin Red Line and the old Battle of the Bulge with Henry Fonda and Robert Shaw, that it was great movie.

Anarcho - do you mean Starship troopers? It was hokey but I enjoyed watching it - sort of in the Kelley's Heroes bucket.

That one only had social redeeming value because of Denise Richards and the other lovely blonde who did the naked shower scene.

I liked it!
I agree about it's lack of redeeming social value, but I liked it.
