By the way, Quentin Tarantino - as an actor - is always great. Especially in Pulp Fiction.

Meet the FOCKERS? Were you around/alive for Meet the Parents? That was great. Sequel was meh. Walter Mitty was difficult to keep up with and kind of disappointing.
You’re forgetting Mystery Men, Zoolander, There’s Something About Mary, Dodgeball, etc. Also, if you’re a teenager, most of those movies may be before your time, but I promise they’re worth a watch.

Another forgotten in this thread is Christoph waltz who played two great Tarantino characters.

You spelled Walken wrong.
In all seriousness though - the moment in Inglorious Basterds where CW drops the pretense of civility and his smile narrows into a snarl as he asks the French farmer to point out the Jews under his floorboards is one of the most horrifying moments in any movie I’ve seen.
He first caught my eye as the Merovingian though.

Best role IMO. Tears were rolling down my face.

I actually got the two mixed up. Meet the Parents was better. Zoolander was good, the sequel sucked imo. Dodgeball was good. Oh and Heavy Weights! Loved his character in that.
I guess besides his depressed character (Brad’s Status & While We’re Young were weird), he also plays the over-the-top, exaggerated character like Dodgeball, Heavy Weights, etc.

I cannot recall laughing harder at any other movie in my life, seriously.
Saw this in the theater with the Ex. We both cracked up when that dude pretending to have a disability dropped his keys and was trying to pick them up -the rest of the theater was dead silent!!! Hah!

That wasn’t Christoph Waltz.
Holy shit I have literally thought that forever, and they really don’t look that much alike but I also didn’t watch reloaded but twice because it sucked, along with revolutions.

Revolutions was so bad when the Captain was giving his speech near the end while the machines had broken down their defences, I literally yelled out, “What?! That’s the worst fucking speech ever!” in a packed cinema and the whole crowd started laughing.
The fuckers even named him Captain Mifune, after Toshio Mifune, who started in the movie Yojimbo, which Sergio Leone completely ripped off and turned Clint Eastwood into a star in A Fistful of Dollars.

Sergio Leone is one of my favorite directors. I still don’t understand why he remade the entire movie almost scene-for-scene. For A Few Dollars More was filmed from an original script and it was still great.
Change of pace: worst movies ever?
Son of the Mask
Ghost Rider
Frozen - fuck off with your Let It Go bullshit. If I made a bot that spewed generic musical theater lyrics out of its asshole, it could do a better job than the writers of this movie. Everyone and everything about this movie sucked, to the point that my wife and I laughed out loud in theaters at it and almost walked out in the middle.
Also, I wanted to like the movie, but Pain and Gain was just awful.

100% agree.
I love real Disney with a passion and I really wanted Frozen to be good, but it just wasn’t. Like, at all.
