I hate Tom Cruise and I hate Cameron Crowe and I hate cute kids.

That kid is not cute. That kid freaks me the fuck out.

― adam (adam), Monday, 1 May 2006 00:53 (nineteen years ago)

like most of crowe's movies since FTARH, pretty decent material + underlying theme, horribly horribly cast and horribly horribly overcooked.

― TOMBOT (TOMBOT), Monday, 1 May 2006 00:54 (nineteen years ago)

who else would you cast?!?

― s1ocki (slutsky), Monday, 1 May 2006 00:56 (nineteen years ago)

Jaime Foxx in the Tom Cruise role
Dave Chappelle in the Cuba Gooding role
Kanye as Zellwegger

― milo z (mlp), Monday, 1 May 2006 01:01 (nineteen years ago)

Gary Coleman as the kid.

― Man Man (kenan), Monday, 1 May 2006 01:03 (nineteen years ago)

Directed by Hype Williams.

i didn't hate singles but it srsly would have benefitted from not being so fucking cutesy.

― jbr with a z (Jody Beth Rosen), Monday, 1 May 2006 01:05 (nineteen years ago)

I didn't hate it then, but I do now.

― Man Man (kenan), Monday, 1 May 2006 01:06 (nineteen years ago)

the "feel-good movie of the year" vibe is what kills him every time.

― jbr with a z (Jody Beth Rosen), Monday, 1 May 2006 01:06 (nineteen years ago)

Every single thing about Singles grates (it's slightly more watchable than Reality Bites, though), but Bridget Fonda is cute in it.

― milo z (mlp), Monday, 1 May 2006 01:08 (nineteen years ago)

reality bites is the worst movie ever but in general i've got a soft spot for '90s gen-x ensemble comedies.

― jbr with a z (Jody Beth Rosen), Monday, 1 May 2006 01:11 (nineteen years ago)

I haven't seen Jerry MacGuire in a long time, but IIRC, Cuba Gooding was pretty great in it, and really the thing that kept the movie worth watching.

― Man Man (kenan), Monday, 1 May 2006 01:13 (nineteen years ago)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0116146/ - the ur-Gen X ensemble comedy/drama

Standard amounts of depressed whining, drinking, making with teh casual sex - but they're doing it after a friend commits suicide! It's Gen-X bingo.

― milo z (mlp), Monday, 1 May 2006 01:13 (nineteen years ago)

Classic. MAAAAAAAAAN, if you like seeing fools busting donuts in tight whips, listening to good music and watching good concert clips, this is the DVD for you.

I was CRYING when Jerry Maguire did donuts in a Chevy van!

Moment i saw this video. i was like WOW!. It gives you a look at what this man does. Having crazy ass shows, partying, thizzin, messin with the bizzies. and all that sh*t. i gave this dvd 5 cause if you a real fan of the J-E-R and always wonder what this man does its not a disppoint. plus it got "RAPPER GONE BAD" and "FIRE" music video. plus a little doctumentary thats tell of his past and all the conterversy behind his arrest. GO GET THIS IF YOU A FAN NOW LATA PLAYA PEACE OUT!!

western culture still has not adequately dealth with the Legacy of Lipnicki

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Monday, 1 May 2006 03:48 (nineteen years ago)

This is still the only film I've seen where the protagonist undergoes a life crisis UNDER THE OPENING CREDITS! Imagine how long the rough cut was.

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Monday, 1 May 2006 13:46 (nineteen years ago)

Good things about this movie: "Did you know the human head weighs 8 lbs?" is an extremely effective way of killing any awful faux-little-known-facts whose-dick-is-bigger conversation dead cold in its tracks.

Bad things about this movie: The actual movie.

― Allyzay Rofflesbot (allyzay), Monday, 1 May 2006 15:58 (nineteen years ago)

five years pass...

i saw this movie for the first time kinda recently. what an amazing piece of shit! anyway:

my sister watched this like every day the summer of the year it came out on vhs (1997?)

she picked like one movie a year to do this repeat-view madness thing, but this was by far the worst

― strongo hulkington's ghost dad, Tuesday, 25 October 2011 02:31 (thirteen years ago)

I feel like we have this discussion every couple months. The last time we did it wound up with me defending Lipnicki and finding out everyone else on the planet seems to completely hate the kid.

― Juggy Brottleteen (ENBB), Tuesday, 25 October 2011 02:33 (thirteen years ago)

in that discussion i agreed with you about lipnicki! he is the least offensive thing about the movie. fuck this movie btw.

s1ocki if you decide cameron crowe is not gross at this late date i will be severely disappointed.

okay cameron crowe is gross but he doesn't seem lobotomized like ed burns.

― horseshoe, Tuesday, 25 October 2011 02:37 (thirteen years ago)

i have the same weakness for blockbuster '90s movies that a junkie has for junk but this and titanic i CANNOT ABIDE for some reason

x-post I remember it now. I was just thinking about it wondering if that was the same thread but I think you're right and that it was. I meant to watch that again afterwards but never got around to it.

This movie made me cry. And it helped me learn to believe in the power of love.

I will never bring him up ever again.

@crunchies14 It is a very good question! I get an erection every time when I dance with my girlfriend and again to this video: I thought in 1989 that this was a very sexy and hot videos and Paula has very sexy legs. And there at 3:30 that guy pulls his crotch against Paula's leg. And there at 3:45 ... Wow! If these guys get erections so I can not blame them, and this is Paula's sexiest video. // Christoffer.

He was on season 3 of "Damages" and he was great! (And Lily Tomlin was his mom!)

Patton Oswalt has a funny bit on the new rekkid about going to see Jerry Maguire with his brother on Christmas Day, and how as a result of his brother's actions it's not his favorite "comedy" of all time.

I like this movie btw.
