Best Ever Movie - Round One

[Berzerker]

African Queen, was better than The Maltese Falcon.
Outlaw Josey Wales, was better than Good, Bad, and Ugly.

Hmm...I'd agree the African Queen was probably Bogart's best movie, but GBU and Josey Wales were comparable with GBU winning by a nose thx to the soundtrack. Besides, who could hate that lovable Tuco?

Uh, Raising Arizona was done by the Coen brothers, who's little toes know more about comedy than the Farrelly Brothers in their entirety.

Oh yeah, oops. What is it with these brother comedies? But I wouldn't go so far as say the Coens beat the Farrellys, D&D and Mary are better than Arizona (not to demean Az which was a hilarious movie).

Sorry, Sloww, you need another do-over. "Lonesome Dove" was a TV mini-series, not a film. And just to p*ss you off totally, it was directed by an Australian.

So if someone really made an effort to improve the lives of other people, then took an opportunity to improve his life, we should just see him as an a**hole?

How much effort is it to act like a clown? I could act like a clown, but I'm too busy seeing patients. Guess I won't be retiring 20 years early like he did.

I'm thinking hard, but I can't think of a doctor who doesn't make an effort to improve the lives of people. Virtually none of them endeavor to self-advertise their activities into an early retirement fund because virtually all of them feel that they essentially "signed on for the duration."

Are you feeling bitter?

On a lighter note, it's so nice to see so many here are voting for me. I would have, but I thought that it would seem a little conceited. Still...'sniff'... it's so nice to be appreciated... "sniff'... God bless you all...'sniff'...

Glad to be of help.

I forgot to mention:

>Who Framed Roger Rabbit?
>Cool World (except for Kim Basinger - I thought maybe she was a little too old for the role)
>Reservoir Dogs

I loved Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
