If you are anything like me, you might find yourself right in the middle of a "theme" when viewing movies. I'll get in a horror mood, and watch 4 or 5. Sometimes, I just want to sit back and watch some Verhoeven madness (cause 1 is never enough). Anyway, I found myself (although not through a...
Oh no, not another "appreciation" thread. Yep, another one. Sometimes (okay, a lot of the time) I just get in the mood for a good old fashioned B movie. Most of the time, it's just a crapfest, but every now and then you find something good and entertaining. And even in the crappiest of the...
-Do you ever go to spell a word (a common word), and even though you know it's right (and sometimes even go so far as to look it up to make sure), it just doesn't look right? -Do you ever repeat a word in conversation or just in your head so many times it begins to sound unfamiliar? -Do...
For me, my favorite and my most watched movies don't necessarily coincide. Sure, I'm not going to watch a movie I don't like over and over again, but there are some movies I can just throw in anytime. I wouldn't say these films are exactly my favorite (even though I do enjoy them greatly), but...
Hello, and welcome to the "Super Big Cool" Tournament DISCLAIMER: The owner, operator, and author of this thread feels strongly that fun is to be had within the day-to-day process of the tournament activity located within this thread. HOWEVER, said person makes no guarantees on any fun...
Last year, Mr. John Rice and myself engaged in a superbowl bet. While he took much ridicule from myself and the forum members for not living up to the bet, he did have legitimate reasons for not owning up. I thought the idea was a unique and good way to bet on the superbowl. For those...
Last night, I had this crazy dream about one Mr. Tom Cruise. (for all the juicy details you can look here eh) Anyway, as I was discussing this dream with our very own Mr. SteveGon (as I do all important life issues, dreams, sexual conquests, etc.) we kinda started bashing him a bit. Well, after...
I don't know about you folks, but I find people's (and my own) "messed up" dreams to be quite fascinating and entertaining. So, why not a thread. I'll start with a gem I had last night. I was hanging out with Tom Cruise. We were out to lunch and were awaiting a third party....the lovely...
Hello, Recently I picked up a set of six figures from the Hellraiser line from NECA. The figures in question can be seen here. I have the complete set of six that is shown first. All figures are in great shape, unopened, and have never seen the shelf. So why am I getting rid of them...
Hello, I have the following for sale or trade. All Prices include shipping. I take paypal or the good old fashioned money order. I have only traded a couple times here at the forum, but have over 40 rating (No Negatives or Neutrals) on ebay under the name brianandstuff if you'd like to look...
Hello, I have the following for sale or trade. I would prefer to trade, but will sell too. I do take paypal, or the good old-fashioned money order is also respectable. I have a couple of positive feedbacks here on the forum, but if you'd like some more peace-of-mind, my mom vouches for me...
Hello. I would like to enlist 8 brave and creative souls to participate in my new "thingy." Well what exactly is the "thingy" you ask? Glad you did. It breaks down like this: I got the inspiration for this from the cast and crew drafts where you draft a crew for a movie and then come up...
Hello. I've bought some movies from my friend Mr. Lutter, but have never traded or sold anything here. I'm thinning out my collection. The following are for sale or trade. I ask for Money Orders Only. ALL PRICES INCLUDE SHIPPING. New And Still Sealed Signs ($15) The Bourne Identity...
**********We are now underway.*********************8 After going through some tourneys, I find myself running out of steam about half-way to three quarters through. So I thought, just for fun, why not have a tourney where the rules change every round. In example... the first round may be...
Hello, I thought I start a thread where we could discuss those wonderful little gems of the motion picture market. Some refer to them as B movies or guilty pleasures, but I refer to them as bliss. I realized my affection the other day. A friend of mine (and fellow esteemed HTF member)...

I figured it was about time to start another movie quote tournament. I was going to post all previous entries, to avoid having the same participants, but the thread has been gutted. So, let's try not to nominate any previously used quotes. If I recognize one, I'll let you know.
Divisions...
With another thread dedicated to new discoveries, I thought I'd start a thread for titles you've revisited. I received many new movies this Christmas, and thought I'd chime in on how well they've held up over time, or how much I thought of them upon a second go-round. I've watched three so far...
Welcome to yet another head to head tourney.
Yet, this will be like no other head tourney. Well, I guess it will. But, we are featuring movies that we find ourselves watching over and over again. These are not our favorites (Although many of our faves did make the cut), but movies that we...
I thought I'd start his thread in order to share my outlook on some movies I'm viewing for the first time. They will mostly consist of "classics" I'm just finally getting around to watching.
I invite everyone to post their thoughts and ideas on any movies they view for the first time as well...
I've only been a member for a little over a month or so, but I've already had 4 movies lost in the mail. Two of them I never got, and two of them they never got back. Is there anyone else here that uses this service that has had similar problems?
OK, I started something at work, and Steve threw down the gauntlet. So here we go. You can watch just one movie for ever more. Just one. Of the following, which would you pick? The Princess Bride The Third Man Lawrence of Arabia The Apartment Amelie Children of Paradise...
Tonight, after returning home from a viewing of Episode II, I found my wife watching Pretty Woman. After some banter back and forth, I asked why in the world would she be watching this when we have so many movies she hasn't seen. I was just giving her shit because our tastes are extremely...
Have we (people) become too insensitive to other people? Let me explain. For many years I've been noticing things that make me question people. Let me start with the first thing I noticed. I was in a packed theater, viewing Silence of the Lambs (Yes, ten years or so ago). I'm specifically...
There's a lot of talk about favorites and why they are. Be it superior story or execution or fun involved. My question, is are there any movies you like for sentimental reasons? For Instance:
Labyrinth is so special to me for a number of reasons. One, I just love the movie. Two, it's one that...
I say it's just fancy toast. Muffins are baked and then served. English muffins are baked and then toasted, much like bread. Shouldn't we call it English Toast? The preceding comments were paid for by the Don't Confuse English Muffins with Real Muffins foundation.
I just wanted to give a little shout of thanks to the HTF moderator staff. They do a great job around here. You see, I recently started a thread that wasn't exactly proper. I often forget that I have a very unusual sense of humor that most people do not. Things I find funny, many people may...
I suppose most of us have surrendered to an impulse buy or two. I have many times. I'm just curious if anyone has bought something, and then later couldn't quite understand why you did.
Example:
I was just shopping the other day(Went to pick up the Usual Suspects SE) and I also picked up...
This will be a multi-purpose thread. In this thread we will:
Firstly First and foremost, this thread will be the place to discuss all things Steve. Current blockbusters, oscar nominations, pending roles, rumored projects, which hotty he's dating this week, nostalgic reflections, whose ass he...
