Less than Zero is on

[CatWoman]

did Robert Downey nail that part of the addict, or what!!! :eyes:

[Carni]

1. Actually I thought he did -but I didn't know why when it came out!

All kidding aside he did an excellent job (little did I know he wasn't acting at the time!)

[CatWoman]

2. Yeah

that movie is pretty deep, all thanks to his performance.

[illini]

3. Icky! Its a good film and a great performance.

Umm Maybe to great. The film creeps me out. I had a friend go down in similar fashion. Ack.

[GalleryGod]

4. Good book

:popcorn:

[Sannum]

5. Okay movie, much better book...

I think Downey is beyond those "Less than Zero" days finally...

[LibraLiz1973]

6. He did a great job

I really liked the movie


I imagine it wasn't a stretch

7. That movie made me fall in love with James Spader.

The movie "Crash" made me fall out of love with him.

Less than Zero--the book on which it's based, by Brett Easton, is a great read, if you've never read it.

[CatWoman]

8. Thanks, Maddy.

I'll do that!!!!

[chickenscratching]

9. "Oh God I feel like Julian"

A friend of mine said that on a roadtrip once. No not like THAT just that he had more than a little too much of the recipe the night before.

[CatWoman]

10. Julian was just......................OUT THERE

Again, that performace was just RAW!!!!

BTW: Still enjoying your "Bling, Bling" kit??? :D

[underpants]

19. The cell phone thing?

God no

[El Fuego]

11. I used to like Andrew McCarthy

And I watched that movie over and over. Now I'm like, "What was I thinking?!"

[ScreamingMeemie]

12. You should be like," I have excellent taste." My brother has worked

with him on films and says he is truly one of the nicest guys in Hollywood. :hi:

[El Fuego]

15. Holy Smokers! Wow!

What does your brother do?

[ScreamingMeemie]

17. He is a location manager. You will see him in a lot of film credits.

He has also been an asst. director. He is working towards becoming a director in his own right, and currently has a film in talks. :hi:

[El Fuego]

18. That is AWESOME!!

I'm very impressed!

To think - I've talked online with someone whose brother knows Andrew McCarthy! *sigh*

[ScreamingMeemie]

20. Funny story. He worked on "Night of the Running Man" with him.

Which was a B flick that came out about a decade ago. (It's actually pretty good) The director had my brother get him on the line for him, but another call came in so he told my brother to stall him...So my brother has a 20 minute conversation with Andrew McCarthy on how his sister (me) was in love with him in high school and actually paid to see Pretty in Pink six times...

So, Andrew McCarthy actually *talked* about me...even though I was more of a James Spader fan...Any port in a storm I guess. ;)

[El Fuego]

22. I have to laugh because. . .

I actually have "Night on the Running Man" on VHS!

Back when I had my schoolgirl crush on Andrew McCarthy, I hunted down every last one of his movies. Of course I've seen "Night of the Running Man"! Ha ha ha! What a total geek, huh?

That is such a cool story! Wow! Thanks for telling me! :)

[ScreamingMeemie]

23. If you ever watch it again, look closely when he runs into the airport,

the woman (stewardess) walking out with the pilot is now my brother's wife. They met on the set of that film. :hi:

[El Fuego]

24. I will definitely dig it out and watch it.

It's kind of a neat coincidence that you have a personal connection to this movie, and I am probably one of the few people on the planet with a copy of the movie in their closet. Ain't DU wonderful?

IMMEDIATELY after I had tracked down and watched every single one of his movies, my crush wore off, and I was like :wtf: . What I am doing with all these stupid movies? I swear it was like some kind of a brat pack voodoo spell.

[chickenscratching]

13. robert downey was amazing (as usual) but waht a lame rendition

of bret easton elis' book.
they really reamed it in the ass hardcore.

[ariesgem]

16. I live in California

Whenever I take a trip to Palm Springs and past those windmills, I think of that movie.
