"Cute, furry and vicious as hell." It's about time somebody gave some "props" to the animals in movies. EmpireOnline has a list of "The Best of The Beasts," check it.

It's true, the donkey in "Bachelor Party" should have at least gotten a nomination for best supporting actor. It has much better acting skills than Marky Mark.

100%, I know you are a regular, but please try not to intentionally start flame wars or we WILL have to edit your comments. Thanks.

I think starting flame wars is cool! What is wrong with you?

I think YOU just started a flame war.

I know you are Marky Mark's lover ....PATRICK EWING!

Jack must stand for jackass. Ever hear of the first amendment? Without it you sure wouldn't have a job, you hack! And yes I'm just gutless enough to not let you know who I am. Long live the random shemp!!!

poor Jack is just trying to do his job,
but all that happens is we become a heartless mob,
pick the battle,
pick the war,
this is what the first ammendment is for,
abuse it and all suffer,
these are MY words,
don't make Jack get tougher.....

you want to see abuse--read the 14th amendment--everyday is a battle and every day is a war. remain vigilant...as the saying goes: stand for something or you'll fall for anything.

P.S. I agree that the velociraptors in JP3 wouldv'e been more interesting with subtitles. At least they could act...

Jack:

If you want me to tone it down, I will, say no more. But in all seriousness, I am much less vulgar, imature, and mean spirited than a lot of these other mother fukin, marky mark, robert downey Jr. a--holes. I mean c'mon, you gotta admit. For now on 100% AMERICAN will not pick fights with flag burners, people who have no taste regarding movies, actors, cartoons (Fred), and anti-americans in general. I was considering toning it down anyway after that last spat with Spider Shemp. He was so upset, I was worried he might commit suicide.

Here is a new 100% AMERICAN post on this current thread:

I agree, animals should receive higher praise for their work in movies. The dog who played Old Yeller in the first of that Disney series was incredible. At least on par with Jet and Marky.

Is that acceptable Jack? or should I not mention those last two clowns.

ROLLERBALL Release Date

MGM sets a date for ROLLERBALL remake.
Source: Variety

MGM is hoping to duplicate the success of this year's HANNIBAL release by placing their upcoming ROLLERBALL on the same opening weekend.
The film, which MGM previously yanked out of summer release to be reworked to get a PG-13 rating, will now lnd in theaters on February 8, 2002. That also happens to be the President Day's weekend, which served last year's HANNIBAL quite well.

Geez--Spider is--or should I say--was a geek. C'mon, that was one of the more interesting threads I've picked up on this site. You get what you pay for Jack. Is that gunsmoke I smell? Hmmmm

Jack, I hear what you are saying, but it is not 100% All American's fault. His bitterness and vulgarity stem from the simple fact that he lives in Hell's Kitchen. That would be enough to drive anyone over the edge. You have to hand it to him though, he posts on a daily basis, and you know his computer gets stolen at least 3 times a week. That is dedication. I am just wondering how he can afford so many computers when he is living in that hole. Perhaps he is none other than "Hell's Kitchen's" own, and NHL Hall of Famer Joey Mullen. That would explain alot. Word Up to you 100%, don't stop keeping it real.

I won't be censoring any of the comments on this page, but here's the deal: Every time a flame war gets out of hand I get a lot of emails from people (whether they be concerned parents or just random news readers) and it's frustrating for me to address every issue they bring up.

I myself enjoy a good flame war, but if in every story there is a comment "dissing" Marky Mark or promoting unhealthy sexual perversions with Patrick Ewing or the British the site loses any trace of professionalism which is important to get advertisers so that we can afford to keep the site running (it's not easy to maintain this site).

I have dreams of adding a whole lot of features to Dtheatre.com, but as long as it costs more then the site makes I can't afford to spend time on it. I don't want Dtheatre.com to turn into a commercial whore of a site like so many of our favorite news sites have become, but some money is necessary and helpful to make this site what we and you want it to be.

I didn't mean to single you out 100%, in fact you are probably one of the least of the offenders, but felt it necessary to bring this up at some point. Sorry you had to be the scape-goat.

Axeman:

I don't know what your talking about. Why is that Rollerball Thread in here?

RE: RE: RE: Animals in Film Awards reply

Posted by A random shemp (No Email) on August 2, 2001 8:31 AM

classic redirection tactic. Some people live in a constant state of denial. Besides without the full frontal nudity on Rebecca Romijn Stamos I bet her acting will suffer.

RE: RE: RE: Animals in Film Awards reply

100%:

How big is Joey Mullen in your neighbourhood? Does anyone even know who he is?

I believe The Last comment sould have been Jack. But since you couldn't somehow Understand him,the last time, let me make it Simple: Stay within the Freak'n Original Subject!

Speaking of not understanding, could you please repeat that in an earth spoken language. I have trouble deciphering galactic babble.

Thanks.

RE: RE: RE: Animals in Film Awards reply

I believe he is staying in subject. Using a translator, I believe WannaBeActor is some type of animal actor. Perhaps even the shunned nominee--the donkey from Bachelor Party. And now that we are full circle this thread may end.

Once upon a time Hells Kitchen was well...Hells Kitchen. Now its a different mold. I live 1 block from Central Park, and 2 blocks from the Ed Sullivan Theatre. That Mullen kid probably moved to Red Hook. Later.

No "wannabe actor" works as a "Goofy" understudy in DisneyLand

RE: RE: RE: Animals in Film Awards reply
