It is just you. And Neverending. Whoa whoa whoa! In-correct.

I don't think "Eraser" is bad either, but like you said pretty forgettable. Other than of course the "You're luggage" line which always cracks me up. And the weapons he uses in the final scene are badass. I haven't seen it in awhile and should revisit it myself, but it's not one of his worst nor one of his best just kind of somewhere inbetween.

It puts the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again.

I always liked the ending. And the giant CGI alligators.

I'd say do The Running Man next, but I realized that movie is actually fantastic and doesn't need any defending.

KnerysJustinDeexanCUTTHROAT ISLAND (1995)You wanna know a secret about Cutthroat Island? Well... don't tell anybody, especially Doomsday. He must never know. Cutthroat Island - are you ready for this, PG Cooper - is actually a pretty good movie. It's your typical Old Hollywood style adventure film, but with a female in the lead role and some Michael Bay type explosions. So how did it end up being one of the most legendary flops in American cinema? Well... Carolco, the production company, was going bankrupt at the time. MGM, the distributor, was in the process of being sold. Michael Douglas dropped out before shooting began because he didn't want Geena Davis to be the star. Oliver Reed had to be fired for getting into bar fights. Critics and the press had to sell newspapers, so they wrote exaggerations about the movie and gave it a bad reputation. So, you know, the usual. But it's gonna be 20 years since Cutthroat Island was released and it's time for people to give it a second chance. It has a fun cast, great music, exciting action scenes and beautiful scenery. B+

Also haven't seen it, and I'm not even sure why I'm tagged.

That's the first positive review of that movie I've seen. Maybe I'd watch it out of curiosity, but it looks so lame.

I peered into the vastness and saw nothing. Felt nothing.

I remember enjoying it when it was released in theaters. Then again I was 11, and I don't recall seeing it since.

I just remember seeing the end of it on USA or something. I assume the bad guy's name was some variation of 'Dog' because Geena Davis yells 'Bad Dog!' and blows him up with a cannon.

Yeesh, so it's that kind of movie. The bad guy is played by Frank Langella, who has never given a bad performance in his life.

He is awesome, I'll give you that. But plenty of great actors have been in terrible movies.

Nope, I've never seen anything He-Man related whatsoever. I was born in 1990, I was more of the Ninja Turtles generation.

He-Man was kind of a homoerotic, Nordic superhero who battled a struggling coke head with a complex.
