2. I'm pretty, have long hair, and can't act worth shit.
I'd totally be the main character. :P

4. I was talking about the main human character, not John Travolta's character.
Edited on Thu Jul-24-08 05:10 PM by DarkTirade
I wouldn't call Travolta pretty.

... and yes, I can. But I can't dance worth shit either. :P

This is the guy I'm talking about.

6. And the movie was even worse.
I was actually impressed that they managed to make it as bad as they did. :P

8. i'm impressed you read it
unless you were just dead panning your sarcasm (i still get fooled with buster keaton type dead-pannish sarcasm). anyways, is it bad enough that i should read it? like bad as in, ed wood movies are bad? or bad like the english patient bad?

9. I think Battlefield Earth should be remade as a musical starring Leonard Maltin.

14. Yeah, but then our special effects budget would probably be higher than the one for the original
Edited on Thu Jul-24-08 08:01 PM by DarkTirade
movie... :shrug:

I don't see why we should put more effort into the remake than they put into the first one.
