Repo Man

[The Notorious LOL]

Just how good is it? I say its fucking fantastic

[HEIRESS]

my friends think im weird because whenever they try and borrow any movies from me I push Repo Man on them like a crack dealer, so just to spite my enthusiasm I barely get any takers resulting in my having no-one to be all geeky with over this movie IRL :( :( :( :(:(((((((

like whenever we go out for sushi I always drop the "yeah lets go get sushi and not pay" and nobody gets it

[DroppinScience]

I haven't seen that movie in forever. I'm inclined to vote "fantastic" but if I watched it again, I'm sure it'd be raised to "fucking fantastic"

[ScarySquirrel]

I haven't ever seen the movie... but I took your advice (from the other thread) and added it to my Netflix queue.

It's currently residing at position number four, but only because I had to bump it up there... I'll get to it after I finish watching this season of 'The Sopranos.'

[Otis Driftwood]

I like it very much and I don't know if it could be done better today. Also: incredible slam soundtrack!

[ms.peachy]

I like it when they show it on TV, and edit it so that they say "melonfarmer".

thats pretty much how it worked out for me. I had seen it once a long time ago and watched it again this weekend and was all :cool: ;) :D (y)

[DandyFop]

I only saw it once and I didn't like it at all. But that was a long time ago maybe I should give it another shot

"Repo Man" has been moved to the top of your Queue.

THIS BETTER BE WORTH IT

you should. Mike Nesmith produced it.

Final Sacrifice it ain't!!! :rolleyes:

[DandyFop]

one of the monkees? gross now I really don't wanna see it again

[The Notorious LOL]

your loss

[abcdefz]

It's all right, but.... come on, folks. :rolleyes:

[The Notorious LOL]

You thought a history of violence was great, therefore your opinion is invalid.

[Loppfessor]

I thought this thread was going to be about that old WWF/E wrestler :mad:

[Otis Driftwood]

You mean Smash from Demolition who SÙDDENLY disappeared and then there was this mysterious masked men with the rope and the tire tracks??

[abcdefz]

You're a genius!

[The Notorious LOL]

its true. That movie was dogshit.

[abcdefz]

Nah. I think the pseudo-Rockwell stylization is the sort of thing you can either go with or not; Cronenberg didn't heighten it into fetish like Lynch would have, which makes it a little more uncomfrortable, because there are moments (the school bully, especially) that -- now THAT looks like a bad after school special.

But that movie rolls just fine for me.

[The Notorious LOL]

Repo Man is rulz

[TimDoolan]

The more you drive.......the less intelligent you are.

[MC Moot]

It's one of my favorite cult classics.

"A lot o' people don't realize what's really going on. They view life as a bunch o' unconnected incidents 'n things. They don't realize that there's this, like, lattice o' coincidence that lays on top o' everything. Give you an example; show you what I mean: suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness."

[Dorothy Wood]

I have it on tape, but I've never seen the whole thing because I always fall asleep on account of being on drugs :( Maybe tonight.


mike nesmith rules either way. SO DO THE MONKEES, BARB, COME ON!

I'm serious. DEAD SERIOUS.

[ms.peachy]

It's all right, but.... come on, folks. :rolleyes:
Come on, nuthin'. This film features the Circle Jerks as a lounge act. That alone is worth the ticket price.

[abcdefz]

I'm pretty sure that Mike Nesmith also produced Tapeheads, a much better pretty decent cult movie.

[skinnybutphat]

It's one of those movies that is completely different when you see it at age 12, and then again at 22 after being well acquainted with drugs.

...keep going; finish that thought.


Oh! -- you're 23!

[ericlee]

I've got that dvd. I'd have to say it's fucking fantastic.

I haven't seen it in a while so, I may not be 100% on the description of this event but, during the beginning, pay close attention to the white cars and who's in them. You'll notice that the cars change from a two door to a hatchback and etc. Especially the scene where they steal a white car from outside the house.

I remember not liking Tapeheads but I don't remember anything else about it. I usually think John Cusack is overrated. Grifters is the only thing I flat out loved him in.


Those were my prime indie movie years. It's funny what lives on and what doesn't. I liked Repo Man alright when it came out. Siskel and Ebert never shut up about that movie. I thought Sid and Nancy was much better. That director was the second coming after doing those movies back to back. Then he made that horrible movie with Joe Strummer. :rolleyes: It's funny how a hot career can go so cold.

Seen Midnight in the garden of good and evil or Identity?

[Documad]

I saw Midnight but I hated it. I didn't expect much because I had loved the book and you know how that goes.

I haven't seen Identity. The trailers made it look bad. Is Cusack really good in it?

I think he's a capable actor, but other than in the Grifters he didn't knock my socks off.

[Documad]

I enjoyed Eight Men Out, but that was an ensemble movie.

[MC Moot]

"Say Anything","High Fidelity" ,"Gross Pointe Blank" and "Bullets Over Broadway!" Hell I even sat through City Hall cause of him...lest we forget Roadside Prophets!

Yeah,I love Cusack,played ball at the Y with him when he was filming the The JackBull" years ago,really nice man ,all elbows though.....

[marsdaddy]

Yeah,I love Cusack,played ball at the Y with him when he was filming the The JackBull" years ago,really nice man ,all elbows though.....Rumor has it he's making one of my favorite books, Cosmic Banditos, into a movie. It'll probably suck. He's overrated.

Back to Repoman: Saw it around age 20, and again at 25. I always quote that movie but I remember it as, "The more you drive, the less you think." I can't imagine watching it again until my kid is around 16 or so.

"Hey kid wanna make 10 bucks?"

"Fuck you queer"

In search of Captain Zero! Good stuff.....you should peep at "Good Omens" by Pratchett and Gaiman or "Caramba!" Nina Marie Martinez or "Fierce Invalids Home From Hot Climates" by Tom Robbins all similar in pace and form,funny,funny!
