  1. ^ cusack rain moment!!! illest line from that flick: "this is PURE snow. you know what the street value of this mountain is???"
  2. ^ "too much plot cusack" notice how the 4th name on that cover is like "who??"
  3. 16 candles cusack = "pre-cusack cusack"
  4. say anything the original cusack. here john plays a likeable single guy who's somehow had bad luck in his past relationships and must learn from his mistakes to get the 'perfect' girl, plays guitar, and enjoys kickboxing without knowing what he wants to do in the future. one crazy summer an earlier, less realized cusack. john finds himself as a likeable single guy who may or may not have somehow had bad luck in his past relationships and must learn from his mistakes to get the 'perfect' girl, while cartooning in cape cod and getting involved in wacky summer movie type shit. better off dead. screwball comedy placing cusack in the role of a likeable single guy who's somehow had bad luck in his past relationships and must learn from his mistakes to get the 'perfect' girl, a french exchange chick who lives across the street from him. high fidelity in this one john plays a likeable single guy who's somehow had bad luck in his past relationships and must learn from his mistakes to get the 'perfect' girl, and owns a record store with wacky employees. grosse pointe blank this ones kind of a stretch. john plays a likeable single guy who's somehow had bad luck in his past relationships and must learn from his mistakes to get the 'perfect' girl, while being employed as a hitman looking to exit the business during a return visit to his hometown. americas sweethearts the hollywood cusack. in a wild twist of character, we see cusack as a a likeable married star guy who's somehow had bad luck in his marriage and must learn from his mistakes to get the 'perfect' girl, who turns out to be his wifes assistant. in my opinion this one came from left field. serendipity definitive cusack. in this one john redefines the role of a likeable single guy who's somehow had bad luck in his past relationships and must learn from his mistakes to get the 'perfect' girl, this time with less annoying plot distractions. must love dogs the most recent cusack, involving animals. basically about a likeable single guy who's somehow had bad luck in his past relationships and must learn from his mistakes to get the 'perfect' girl, whom he finds through a personal ad about loving dogs. wack. **Bonus: being john malkovich cusack, but on crack. the story of a likeable nonsingle guy who's somehow had bad luck in his marriage and must learn from his mistakes to get the 'perfect' girl, but doesnt do that at all. instead he fucks everything up by finding a hole in an office wall that leads into john malkovich's brain then drops him onto the nj turnpike, which in turn leads to all kinds of oddball uncusackian shit. ***take in mind, its also my contention that in all other movies featuring cusack it should just be assumed that he is playing a likable single guy who's somehow had bad luck in his past relationships and must learn from his mistakes to get the 'perfect' girl ... but isnt necessarily highlighting that angle on screen. (not to be overlooked: an 85% chance he'll at one point be "caught in the rain" in any given film)
  5. Lol. I guess the anti-terrorism fairy could magically appear and fund the hundreds of bomb sniffing dogs needed at every search-targeted station. She could install platinum xray machines, too! They have whatever small number of dogs they can get right now down there already anyway. And if you get knocked & sent to rikers over one of these bag searches you must have been smoking pounds of the shit you got knocked for before you tried to get on a train with it. Every sane person in the city knows they got cops down there searching shit right now.
  6. You're getting all riled up and pole vaulting across huge gaps of reason and common sense with the whole 'fear of becoming a slave' thing. Having your backpack searched before you get on a train is NOT "surving on a chain or a leash". Its not even close. Its a realistic response to a situation that could be dangerous for innocent people, and so far its been conducted pretty respectfully. My friend got searched today on his way to work and the shit was purely routine. Took a few seconds and he was on his way. Big fuckin deal. And what exactly else are people gonna be getting locked up for? Drugs? Guns? Knives? Graffiti shit? Just dont bring it on a train if you know you're gonna be searched.
  7. Lol. Take a joke already! Seriously. Having a backpack or a bag searched before you get on a train just isnt that bad of a trade-off for deterring the possibility of being blown up on that train. It IS a violation of a certain personal liberty we've come to enjoy but ... when people are blowing other people up ... it may just be in your own best interest to step back and concede that a certain AMOUNT of personal infringement is unfortunately acceptable in prolonging your chance of survival during your train ride to work. Thats just a shitty fact we're gonna be living with until more positive steps are made towards limiting the amount of maniacs down to blast themselves and their fellow commuters into the atmosphere. And so far, thats ONE step (aside from the more vague and as-of-yet less practiced implications of the patriot act) in a disturbing direction in new york public life. If a second step comes along you can judge it then accordingly ... as opposed to convincing yourself in advance that it'll be the certain bridge to some orwellian helltopia that doomfearing bill cooper groupies have nightmares about. .... About those free-speech zones ... at first glance those things are admittedly fucking ridiculous jokes, but you're talking public protest, which is now one small facet of our democracy that typically makes about .09383636% of difference in 2005 american policy and political activity. Lol, one could actually argue that that sort of go-getter, pointless-nuisance elimination is a borderline WELCOME tool for the reduction of what has become purely symbolic fodder for mobilizing fashion protests and sidelining real sociopolitical growth in america. Dudes with picket signs have changed jack shit in 30 years. And dissent hasnt at all been outlawed. Instead, its either a) been marginalized and suppressed by supposedly 'progressive' types' inability to effectively utilize or employ it anywhere where it could actually make a difference, or b) been consequently channelled into new platforms where its effects are either still in their quantifiable infancy or are so vastly different from the preexisting "standard" of dissent that the outcome is still decades away from the availability of definition. Case in point: you ever watch the daily show? Tell me that isnt a powerhouse, BRAND NEW vehicle of national poltical dissent ... and on a CORPORATE level. There are 14 year old kids who watch that show with their 40 year-old voting parents and all drop their jaws in unison when jon stewart dismisses a conservative author's claim that modern culture is deteriorating with "thomas jefferson used to fuck slaves". And fucking viacom pays for it. Dissent is NOT dead. Its just evolving.
  8. Living in new york and riding the train daily ... I gotta respond to this thread. I'm 100% aware of the "domino" idea in surrendering basic freedoms and rights, with small, less significant elements falling first, eventually tumbling into 1984 and anal cavity searches on your way to the beach. But I can't front like I want to get on the 4 with some nutjob islamic radical packing homemade c4 in his jansport and be blown onto jerome in 400 unidentifiable, charred pieces. It isnt sacrificing much to allow a simple search to prevent the possibility of something so undeniably displeasant occurring (dont get me wrong. Cops start asking for sperm samples I will embrace the path of dissent). And the point kabar made about NOT having illegal shit in your backpack is just the truth. If before the london shit happened I was gonna throw a sack of weed in the bag or decide to bring my bazooka down to the block party in coney, im simply gonna opt to catch a cab or invest in a huffy instead of hopping on the train to accomplish these goals. Case closed in my opinion.
  9. lol. beavis and butthead: not deth kult!
  10. yo no offense at all purple nerple cause your flicks are good, but arms, ast, siner and raels arent part of deth kult.
  11. im definitely gonna start putting gay porn and used condoms in my backpack before i leave.
  12. mad is definitely all out. trains, streets, pieces, tags, everything.
  13. YEAH! and ice cream trucks, wheelchairs ... infant strollers! WAR!!!
  14. I lived in this tiny fucking studio hellhole for almost a year where the bathroom light didnt work and the bathtub drain was unrepairably clogged. I had a battery powered bicycle light that would "strobe" in the bathroom to keep it lit. In the morning's i'd be showering halfway up to my knees in filthy pond-scum-last-nights-muddy-graf-mission-spraypaint water with this faint white light flickering on and off at high speed on some nightmare on elm street shit. There were roaches all over the place too, like living in a cronenberg flick. Then I lost the front door key at some point so i had to stand on a garbage can and climb in through the window every night to get inside. No AC in the summer either. There wasnt even any point in cleaning, I'd just wake up and leave as fast as possible.
  15. lol you stole my idea dude this tag is really normal, and not at all in a crazy or retarded spot and the grass underneath looks comfortable to stand on this one seems like a relaxing spot to paint in, and away from the tricky maneuvering it would take to negotiate that dangerous, rocky pit
  16. Raw dog is kinda up, no joke. Peep the fire escape on kenmare with the dissed utah and opie, and other spots around that way. Its sad that i know this shit.
  17. You should just skip going there altogether.
  18. Kinda reminds me of chip7. I like that slut piece.
  19. Any pizza in times square is toy! Yatagan ... 2 dollar falafels ... a block north of houston in nyuville noho. Slamming. Punjabi on houston and A. Bushwick tortilla warehouse taco stand on starr and wyckoff.
  20. I'm gonna mail you cigarettes on some fiendish shit... Seriously though drinking may lead to your non smoking downfall. I know people who loathe cigarettes that will inhale packs when theyre drunk. Godspeed...
  21. "atlas thugged" is too funny. Ive thought of doing a train with like a sad-face atlas shrugging its shoulders ... or a fountain spraying from its head. This guy kinda beat me to the joke.
  22. Can someone tell me what year this was from?
  23. Yeah, a hood is a hood. All politics aside, if I was a twelve-year-old from a safe, friendly suburb I'd be scared shitless of tackling some project kid while dudes across the street are selling crack and drinking 40s on stoops. Starbucks and swimming pools that shit is not. Most suburban mom and dads teach their kids to stay out of "bad" neighborhoods anyway, so its like engrained in a suburban kids mind to be afriad of places like that. Ill homefield advantage for the PJs though. Like "sack me again i dumb out the heat, creampuff!"
  24. I dunno i didnt like the hulk. The hulk himself just looked too stupid and fake. I could not get over how retarded he looked. Xmen was actually good. Blade was alright, too. Somebody should make an austere, emotionally moving film about wolverine.
  25. The movie wasnt nearly as good or psychologically deep as moore's book, but it was pretty good as a movie just on its own. The hughes brothers have ill ideas. I half take back the comment about comic movies not being good. I forgot about spiderman and hellboy, they were both dope. And the first batman was good. Nonetheless all those movies are like lighthearted fun. I havent really seen any serious graphic novel type shit translated into a 'serious' movie. Its always joe hollywood dumbing out the budget for fancy makeup and cgi explosions while some secretary rewrites the script. The hulk and spawn both really sucked. So did tank girl. Although I guess that comic book sucked in the first place.
