Agreed. Besides it had the principle from Ferris Bueller in it.
Yes, Jeffery Jones, who was arrested a few years ago for having a HUGE kiddie **** gallery in his house.

Ok, Hackers isn't that bad. I guess it falls into the "so bad it's funny" category. It's sort of like watching a bunch of AOL kiddies type in all caps and pretend that they're "1337" hackers because they can run a script of which they have no real understanding and that someone else wrote.
Ugh... tell me about it. A full length move about script kiddies. I think they forgot that 'hackers' know how to break into things, while 'crackers' actually do it. Big difference between white hat and black hat geeks.

Eyes Wide Shut - It sort of started somewhere in the middle, and ended a little further in the middle
Stanley Kubrick died before the film was done being edited. What was released was not what he intended - especially not the US version with all of the black cloaks covering up the gratuitous nudity scenes. It's hard to take a movie seriously when it stars Tom Cruise anyways - with the possible exception of Collateral. Eyes Wide Shut is actually very intriguing if the first viewing doesn't turn you off - it is a film after all, with a subtle intricate plot - it is not a 'movie'.

"Contact" with Jodie Foster. You sit through the whole thing to see the aliens at the end and it's her dad.
Watch it again - it was not her dad at all. The movie did suck compared to the book - but who could expect to take a novel by Carl Sagan and turn it into something the average audience would enjoy?

No, they use them because the image processing software is better. Mac OS isn't particularly secure compared to XP or Linux.
Hi, welcome to 2005 - if you were in 1992 I would agree with you. I clearly remember Adobe having ALL their software out for Windows for over a decade now myself - no idea how Mac supposedly has anything better. If you're talking custom software that the FBI wrote, it wouldn't matter what platform it was writen for, as long as the code was clean and the drivers were supported.

Now you've crossed the line. TRL cannot approach the absolute crapitude of the Postman. That movie was bad bad bad.
hahaha - I always thought that The Postman was one of the best films ever made - for the simple reason that it is the perfect ammo to flame Kevin Costner with (as if Bodyguard wasn't enough). The only real redeeming part of that one for me was the Tom Petty cameo. Kevin Costner generally blows goats, except for 'No Way Out' (Hackman was probably whispering his cues for him though) and a few other roles.

And he's made how many films in the last decade or so?
Well, just look him up on IMDB under Director. He's pretty busy for a septagenarian.

Route 666 (starring Lou Diamond Phillips, nuff said)
Aww, weren't the ghost prisoners with chains and jack hammers realistic enough for you? :P Me neither... thumbs down.

Anaconda. Redeeming factors: It has J. Lo in it. And a giant animatronic snake
It's only a redeeming factor if you're looking for eye candy. Sure, J Lo is hot, but talented in any way? Only if you count dancing as a career.

OMFG!!! u say labrynth sucked! i ask u how any movie with david bowie could ever suck. yall need to go ask ure mommys and daddys for a david bowie album and then, maybe u can understand why he is god.
Hello - they said the movie sucked, not David Bowie. David Bowie clearly does not suck - nor does the message of the movie - the presentation could've used some work - but was pretty decent considering when it came out.

I apologize for such a long post - saw a lot of funny things to comment on in the thread.
