SO SPEAKING OF GUYS YOU CAN'T TRUST WITH YOUR GIRLFRIENDS: JAMES SPADER

I had to go with PiP 'cause that was my halloween costume that one time

I always confuse him with Judge Reinhold except Judge Reinhold looks like some hideous monster created by plastic surgery and botox now.

no i thought it was more like less than zero

i voted for wall street, mostly because there's no michael douglas poll

(don't get any ideas schefter)

OH TOO LATE "STRONGO"

no Stargate? i think that's the only movie where he doesn't play El Crepe-O Grande

Crash, I'd buckle up w/ him anytime.

POV movies James Spader has sex in

My friend went out with a guy for a while, and one of her reasons (among many) for dumping him was, "He has James Spader hair."

where is THE MUSIC OF CHANCE??

Stargate (please don't vote for this, you nerds)

oh.

you put caveats on the only two movies i want to vote for

he's at his best when he looks his worst

the caveats are v important and correct

Bad Influence: the original Fight Club.

i voted for stargate cause fuck you all

tho i am going to vote for secretary because the schef voted for bull durham

someone make a kurt russell poll

also in TRUE COLORS he & Cusack clearly have the hots for each other.

also, WOLF

what's with the selective filmographies??? no tuff turf? no jack's back?

http://www.impawards.com/1985/posters/tuff_turf.jpg

Voted Mannequin for the spader-less but amazing opening montage at the mannequin factory.

HAI NO TUFF TURF NO CREDIBILITY.

I would get my friend Stripey to vote on this but she'd protest at not being able to vote for all of them.

somebody make a Melvil Poupaud poll

Mannequin was on in the video store the other day and Spader was bringin teh roflz I must say

YOU TOLD ME TO VOTE FOR BULL DURHAM

SRSLY this is the poll that makes my day, James Spader is poss my all-time sleb perma-crush. Where is younger NYC-abiding version who means mawwage?

YOU JUST SAID YOU DID IT TO SPITE ME, NOW I AM SPITING YOU

Also Secretary, duh. Gyllenhaggle who?

Mannequin is underrated. Hollywood!

Spader is sexy. The end.

his wife in crash...so hot

spader rules. my girlfriend better watch out when he's around me!

http://www.angelfire.com/celeb/jspics/jsfilm2.html

That is actually my ass up there in pic.

molly mummenschanz's friend not otm

has anyone seen him in "the new kids" ? he has weird platinum eyebrows in it.

anyway i voted for mannequin

dudes, it wasn't good james spader hair.

http://www.kimsaid.com/archives/spader.jpg

Holy hotness that sneer

this is the 3rd poll today with Bob Roberts as an option. clearly we need Alan Rickman for the fourpeat.

WAIT YOU GUYS

WOLF

the sneer, yes!
the feathered coiffure, no.

is that picture good or bad spader hair? seriously, we need to clear this up

xpost noooo it are my ideal haircut

saving vote for future louis jagger biopic

I said Wolf already, Dan, it features characters over 40 so they're not interested.

Yeah hi my last boyfriend was 40 so shut up.

i'm just disinterested in wolf because it is terrible

WOLF IS SERIOUSLY ONE OF THE GREATEST MOVIES EVER IN TERMS OF "WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS THAT I AM WATCHING? MYSTERY.JPG" CINEMA

The climactic wolf battle at the end! awesomes

wait is wolf like that bear movie?

or that disney movie with the dogs

i like Wolf

Great, now I get nothing done for looking at pictures of JS all day.

...and, y'know, ovulating.

xx-post

hahaha yes it is like Milo and Otis but with lycanthropy involved

omg, the cuet

I voted for Stargate, the cool kids can bite me.

Wolf is that movie where Jack Nicholson is a werewolf because y'know he is such a WOLF lolol do u see? etc.

Will Randall: What do you do?
Laura: Why do you care?
Will Randall: I don't. I was just making polite conversation.
Laura: I'd rather not discuss what I do.
Will Randall: You know, I think I understand what you're like now. You're very beautiful and you think men are only interested in you because you're beautiful, but you want them to be interested in you because you're you. The problem is, aside from all that beauty, you're not very interesting. You're rude, you're hostile, you're sullen, you're withdrawn. I know you want someone to look past all that at the real person underneath but the only reason anyone would bother to look past all that is because you're beautful. Ironic, isn't it? In an odd way you're your own problem.
Laura: Sorry. Wrong line. I am not taken aback by your keen insight and suddenly challenged by you.

Bear is the movie about the bear. My grandma had a poster from it in her basement.

(xpost) T'S LIKE THEY PREDICTED ILX INTERACTION 6 YEARS BEFORE IT HAPPENED

I am not taken aback by your keen insight and suddenly challenged by you.

I have had that conversation (me as Laura).... wau

sex, noise, and delay pedals

girls don't like it when I'm cryptic

I actually really liked Stargate, up until the point that they actually step thru the stargate, when it all goes to shit

girls people don't like it when I'm cryptic

this list is missing the excellent Dream Lover

Also, my usual request to my hair person is "more feathery please"

So about your visit to New York....

I'm only cryptic to girls.

clearly the answer is less than zero.

sex, lies and videotape is possibly the worst movie ever

WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF

sex, lies and videotape is possibly the worst movie ever

strange, I really liked it in high school when I first saw it, it had sex talk and was all indie. And then I saw it again a year or two ago and basically laughed at it the whole way, and turned it off before it was over because it was stinking up the joint.

I voted for White Palace but it could have been Two days in the valley or Crash too. I do find him rather disturbing in Boston Legal but his late 80s to mid 90s vintage is totally hot.

He looks so like a young David Hemmings in this pic. Which means he'll end up looking like james Doohan in his old age.

http://www.kimsaid.com/archives/spader.jpg

he's at his best when he looks his worst

this is true, e.g. Boston Legal. But old 'n' ugly spader really isn't Spader at all, so I'm glad BL is left out.

I vote SL&V because that is a master class on Playing A Crepe.

you put caveats on the only two movies i want to vote for

2x

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

this is true, e.g. Boston Legal. But old 'n' ugly spader really isn't Spader at all, so I'm glad BL is left out.

Oooh, but I fancy him in Boston Legal very very much, nonetheless.

It was hard to choose between Secretary and Crash, but Secretary got my vote.

i guess i voted less than zero altho i wouldve gone w/secretary for the gylnihalll perv factor but it says right in the poll not to do that

I think he's hot in The Practice/Boston Legal! I thought everyone on ILX hated James Spader! This thread pleases me.

Where is *Alien Hunter*?

Also, that episode of Boston Legal where he dresses up as Murphy Brown.

MANNEQUIN

Stargate! But so hard not to vote for Pretty in Pink & Less Than Zero.

Secretary. Obv.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

10 gyllenhaal perverts!

Represent!

seriously you ppls is LAME

though I guess a vote for PiP is kind of a half-assed vote for LTZ so combine the two and that wins

How many times do I have to say I don't give a shit about Gyllenhagel? That vote is all Spader.

Hello people, Less Than Zero is a really bad film, what are you on about.

its great in its own way

i mean i guess i couldve vote for pip but that wouldve made me a girl so

Secretary = yay

my vote was all Gyllenhagell, and thus correct

Too bad Storyville sucked. Maybe he just liked shooting in New Orleans.

Mrs Trifle was watching The Watcher the other night and later said that if James Spader asked her to marry her she would really have to think about it. And this was after watching The Watcher...

James Spader meets David Mamet.

"James Spader rips into Mamet" would have been better.

i'm digging deep into this guy's filmography

i acquired about 70% of the movies he's been in

i watched crash on the weekend

tuff turf won in the other james spader poll (BEST OF THE REST OF JAMES SPADER'S RICH AND WORTHWHILE FILMOGRAPHY) but i haven't been able to get a hold of it unfortunately

Watching Bad Influence for the first time since it came out. The whole way, I've been trying to remember why Greil Marcus included it in a "Real Life" column at the time; just a minute or so before the answer, I somehow remembered. Thought Spader's brother was played by a young Rainn Wilson. No--Wilson was probably a kid at the time. Spotted Donald Margolis, Jane's father, from Breaking Bad, though--John de Lancie--as Spader's boss.

Somewhat compelling trash.
