    Right now I'm watching Reservoir Dogs for the first time, never had the chance to see it before. It's an icon of my generation, but it passed me by for some reason.

    What has everyone else done that you haven't that you should have but you didn't?

    It is a sad indictment of your generation when such a crudely violent and moronic film can be considered an icon of it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 723 ✭✭✭Daqster


    Never took an E.

    My mates eat them for breakfast in the 90s it seemed, but I was never all that interested.

    Then again, they thought my consumption of Jack Daniels was excessive, so each to their own I guess.

    Can't help when I was born man.

    My Ma pushed and I popped out, not much I can do about it.

    Never went to my Debs or any debs, the girlfriend at the time broke up with me two weeks before mine.

    I went mad to 'Footlose' at my debs, my date went with the local badboy out in the gazebo at the same time.:(

    Stop trying to defend yourself! Your attitude is abysmal, with your back-sliding and dodging of responsibility!!! I've noticed this about you and I for one will no longer sit idly by while you do it!

    You're not the boss of me?:mad: Are you a cop, man?

    I wish I had started to learn how to drive aged 17-18. It was easier then and much cheaper than nowadays. I also realise that I should have gotten some form of part-time work in secondary/college. If I had a car and disposable income I would have had great teenage years. I'm sad now :pac:

    I should be the boss of you. You need guidance and counselling; enough of this watching second-rate movies at 3 in the morning! Reservoir Dogs?? Rubbish!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,817 ✭✭✭✭Charlie19


    I should of pressed rewind on the VCR before my trip back to xtravision with the tape.

    What a strange thing to have a holier than thou attitude about.
    I could understand if he was watching Jean Claude Van Damme's latest offering and you were giving out about that, but Reservoir Dogs is a quite well written, stylistic film with a stellar cast, most of who have never been better than they were in that film.

    Anyway, I'm off to watch JCVD's latest offering.

    I'm in the middle of watching twin peaks finally. Tried to watch it a few times before, was just not in the right mood, I've seen the movie, have it on dvd somewhere even, but I'm finally going to finish the series. It's not even that many episodes, I watch so many tv series, how have I not seen it all before


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,720 ✭✭✭Sir Arthur Daley

    The only two good things about Twin Peaks are Miguel Ferrer and Piper Laurie.

    Twin Peaks falls into my category of 'Things I actually did do when I was younger but shouldn't have!' :pac:

    Smoke.

    Had a 'fashionable' haircut.

    Followed fashion at all.

    Follow the crowd drinking in horrendous pubs and clubs.

    I've sort of already decided that I like it before I've even seen it :o I don't know if I'll think it's all that great by the end, but I don't dislike it


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,284 ✭✭✭Chattastrophe!


    I only watched "It's a Wonderful Life" for the first time the other night.

    I was underwhelmed.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,464 ✭✭✭e_e


    I've never watched a Rocky, Indiana Jones or Star Wars film (except for the prequels) front to back.

    Go to Australia. It seems like everybody I know has been, but the convicts, spiders and giant bouncing rats just never appealed to me. I think mostly because it's so faaaaarrrrr.....
