My grandson put the movie in. I haven't watched it for quite a while but have always loved it. I just finished watching it and remember why. Damn I love this movie.

Hey RedJoe13, have you ever seen it?

Yes, love it. Saw it in the theater in '88 and we own the film now.

I'm actually a big Costner guy. Were I one to fog up at movies, the "Dad want to have a catch?" would have me pulling a Cain BTM every time.

Never saw No Way Out yet, but it is on my rental list. Couldn't figure The Postman (willing to give it another chance), but dug Waterworld, JFK, Graceland, Untouchables, American Flyers, Dances W/ Wolves, Bodyguard, Love Of The Game, Perfect World (Clint)...

Greatest "baseball" movie ever. Followed by The Natural.

My favorite part is James Earl Jones "Peace, Love, Dope!" He was hilarious in that movie. Who knew Darth Vader was funny?? (Yes, I KNOW he didn't actually play DV in the movies.)

Got me beat AR...played through College then the over 18 "sandlot" leagues until '98. The night of the final Seinfeld episode was my final organized hardball game.

Beerleague softball now and LOVING it. Are you playing in a league?

I knew it Joe13. When I was watching it today I was thinking this would be your kind of movie. You're cool like that about baseball. :wink:

Oh hell yeah. I should have read further into the thread before I posted. I haven't seen The Postman or Graceland. I will though. I loved Waterworld, and all the others you listed. In fact, Perfect World was a major tear jerker. Damn didn't you hate it when Sean Connery got killed in The Untouchables?

Yep, we all hated when Connery booted in The Untouchables. THEN he won the Oscar for the role and never looked back. Took him years to shake the Bond label, but sure enough, the guy is not only good looking but an amazing actor.
Apparently still sitting on the fence about coming back for the new Indiana Jones but the scenes between he and Ford in Last Crusade are some of the most well-acted funniest parts of the whole series.

PS, back ON topic, in Field Of Dreams "Peace,Love, Dope (slam door)" echoing an above more astuete poster, is one of the greatest lines in cinema history for me, particularly when juxtaposed w/ how PISSED James Earl Jones acted in the scene.

Speaking of Cain crying, I'd bet if you told Perry he could fire Cain as long as he agreed to a 20 city tour, we'd have a reunion. Perry hates Cain that much. I'm not a Jon Cain fan myself. I've met him several times and he seemed a bit course and very insincere. I respect the shit out of his contributions from 81-86, though.

OMG, The Last Crusade is my favorite Indianna Jones movie because of Connery's performance in it. I hope he does the new one because I'm really not all that interested if he doesn't. :evil:

I'm glad he got the Oscar for that because it proved he was so much more than Bond. Did you see him in The Rock?

dont you think that perry is only concerned with giving 100% vocals that folks expect.. i bet he would work with dee snider\rikki rocket, if they could help produce those unattainable AMAZING vocals that perry demands..

Sadly, as it stands now, Perry seems intent on perpetuating the fallacy that he might be returning to the band. Without a concrete answer, he leaves the door open, which is unfair to his former bandmates or "brothers" as he called them :roll: , as well as his longtime faithful fans. Two lots of people he has treated like shit for a LONG time. Nice work, Steve.

Graceland? Horrible...The Postman? WORSE!!!!! Inexplicably bad...laughable, even.
Want to see a good Costner movie (besides FOD) - watch BULL DURHAM- OR go for one of his oldest (FANDANGO- fantastic indie film from round about 83) or one of his latest UPSIDE OF ANGER w/ Joan Allen. Really underrated film. And there's always my personal fave TIN CUP (with the lovely Rene Russo!) DOn't waste time trying to make sense of the POSTMAN- it's 3 1/2 hours of your life you'll never get back!

Bull Durham and Tin Cup are two more of my favorites along with Dragon Fly. I haven't seen Fandango or Upside of Anger.

I need to watch For Love Of The Game again - thanks for the reminder.

I love the line "Has anyone been on base?".

No Way Out is definitely one of the better movies out there. I went to Hollywood Video the other night and left empty handed. It is like top forty radio - a bunch of crap I won't wast my time on.
