Do you honestly believe that THE IRON GIANT, CABARET BALKAN, etc. are better movies than the original MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE?

Cosgrove08/10/2004

Well, if given a choice between the Frankenheimer film and the Brad Bird film, I'll end up with that metal man almost every time. So yes, yes I do believe that. ("Cabaret Balkan", on the other hand, I might change my mind on if I ever see it again.)

Fight Club, was one of the best films of the 90's!

Cosgrove09/29/2007

Indeed. Indeed it was. I'm rather proud of the fact that I attended the first possible public screening of it in New York City.

neptune10/19/2007

Really? I can't believe that some people judge it purely on the title, it's such a good film on so many levels. I love the fact you saw it TEN times :P Mind you, I must have seen it at least that many times this year...
