George Clooney

[hatredisnotavalue]

Always thought he was a handsome man and then come to find out he is a good Democrat. Loved "Goodnight, Good luck" and "Syriana". But a movie you just can't miss is O'Brother Where Art Thou?

His performance is just wonderful. Can't get that "I am a man of constant sorrow" out of my head. Any other good Clooney films out there?

1. Attack of the Killer Tomatoes?

:shrug:

I can't think of any others right now... and geez... I still need to see Syriana *and* Good Night, and Good Luck

*ashamed*

2. "This is a hell of a spot!"

"I'm what you would call a Dapper Dan Man!"

"Ain't this place some geographical oddity! Two weeks (?) from everywhere!"

I think my favorite scene was when Holly Hunter's new beau beat the crap out of the Clooney character. Guy looked like such a dork you figure the cool Clooney character will mop the floor with him... :rofl:

4. I wish I could do the phrase justice

But it was when the three of them had to choose a leader and Clooney said he would guess it would be the one capable of "abstract thinking". That killed me right there. Your quotes made me smile though....

3. This thread is useless without a picture.

I rest my case.

Out of Sight

stephen soderberg directs george, ving, and j-lo (who is actually really good) in a sexy cops n robbers flick.
there's some very nice clooney in that.

7. I haven't watched it because i thought it would be a bit

lame given that J-Lo was in it. But I am willing to give it a try. Thanks!

11. She's great in it.

Some critic back at the time said something like it confirmed her as a "big screen voluptuary." I guess Oliver Stone's U-Turn has probably already hinted at that status.

Along with Jackie Brown, that's one of the best Elmore Leonard adaptations to hit the screen.

[hatredisnotavalue]

12. OMG! Jackie Brown is probably one of my favorite movies!

I will definitely check it out

[swag]

15. You'll enjoy the reappearance of Michael Keaton as

Ray Nicolette, among other things.

A different directorial approach. Hard to tell which one I prefer, they're both so damn good. Guess I don't have to choose.

[bettyellen]

16. he's the same charachter?

doh! i never noticed that. yeah, of course he was.

[swag]

17. Yeah, it's funny to see him playing the same guy

in two different directors' Elmore Leonard adaptations.

I think I'll watch both movies again this weekend. Thanks for the reminder.

18. i always thought Jackie Brown was set in LA

it doesn't look as sweaty and humid as Out of Sight
but i didn;t know it was Elmore. he's always florida, eh?

[swag]

22. Florida and Detroit are common settings.

The movie Jackie Brown was LA for sure. Haven't read that particular book.

But Ray Nicolette was FBI, so he could be anywhere.

8. Great flick.

Can watch that one again and again.

Lopez was wonderful in that. Her last good performance?

Shit, Don Cheadle was so good in that.

5. I've heard "Three Kings" is good but have not seen it.

[hatredisnotavalue]

6. Thanks! I will check it out!
