Burt Reynolds was not only the BEST thing about "Boogie Nights" he was in my opinion the ONLY thing of value about it. As poor(And WILDLY overrated)a film as "Boogie Nights" was, Reynolds had in it something that I'd never seen from him before in a film(And as a big fan of his I've seen MOST of Burt's films) and that's the kind of effortless charm and grace that Sean Connery brings to a movie automatically. Burt was once offered Bond but turned it down so he wouldnt be the 2nd best Sean Connery.
Your taste (What are you, obsessed with Tom Jones? I'll bet you DREAM of him singing "What's new Pussycat?" to you dont you Cupcake?) and your Icon BLOWS!
If you dont recognize that a persons tastes reflect who they are then you're even MORE obtuse than I thought.
"they arfe used"????????
Starting your gay manifesto without even capitalizing your ever-so eloquent "dude"?
It's obvious even to Ray Charles that it's YOU who are the pathetic (And GAY) loser and Charles is blind AND dead!
I've GOT a life Muffin and part of it is the joy of schooling arrogant idiots like you who want to ACT like they know it all when they in fact know NOTHING.
you're a master at ferretting out a typo,but try reading and actually "grasping the point" that one is making,tool. Besides the fact that my wife is responsible for a majority of my favorites,why does favoriting something make you automatically at one with the subject? You truly have no life,if the majority of your time is taken starting cyber wars,(yes,YOU started the personal attacks) and your opinion still does blow. If you can't handle that,perhaps you should keep them to yourself.
Listen nitwit, if YOU would've kept your ignorant and ill informed opinion about MY opinion to yourself then you never would've had to have me point out what a douche you are. All things considered, you probably needed it so I'm happy to have helped out society by pointing out that the village that lost its idiot has finally got it back ,YOU.
I'm sorry that you have so much anger...I made an attempt to personally apologize for my side of our little squabble,but you ,being the upfront soul that you are decided to delete my personal message to you from your page. My sentiments have not changed and perhaps I should have kept my opinion to myself. We may differ on tastes in various arts,but it is how we handle these differences that defines who we are As I said in my personal message to you,Life Is Too Short.
I DIDNT delete a personal message from you(And you wouldnt know if anyone DID) I blocked you as I do with anyone I debate with following a previous experience where I was threatened in PM. I figure if someone wants to go that route, then they should do it in public where ALL can see.
Opinions differ and I doubt any two people in the world will agree on EVERYTHING. I try to respect opinions as long as they're expressed AS opinions.
well that pretty much sucks because my apology was actually quite eloquent. Basically it just stated that I was as guilty of what Iaccused you of .That being thinskinned,and that I feel it brought out the ugly in me and there is really no place for that. I should have kept my opinion of your opinion to myself. That is why I was kinda taken aback by your scalding comment.
I'm sure we agree on tons of things...well,maybe pounds?
and I do have a feeling that neither of us is indeed gay
Burt Reyolds is his own best friend and fan club!! Loved him early on, but he slid to the dark side with his lower companion...A elf shoed little dark side companion..Lonnie must of put the vodoo on the poor boy.
get your GED yet? c'mon, community college doesnt really care what your GPA wasnt! And AA degrees dont exist in the real world anymore. But, seeing as you are a Britney Spears wanna be, there must be some sort of substance to your being...or is that some substance must be in your being..your being on a substance..oh well. Dont want to get you too stressed before your next study hour...testing again for the reading of the pink stick?
Burt Reynolds hated working on this film. He turned down a role in Magnolia, because he didn't like Paul Thomas Anderson. He even fired his agent, after filming finished. It wasn't until the film started getting good critical attention, decent box office and probably most importantly, earned himself a best actor Oscar nomination, that he changed his tune.
It was fairly well documented at the time. Most of the cast have said he was a prick on set.
what did he hate about working on a film with a director about 40 years younger than him? Why would he fire his agent? Couldn't the renowned Burt Schm. Reynolds read the script and turn it down? Oh, could he read the script or was it he couldnt afford to turn it down? Remind us Bert, how many movies have you had to turn down since the making of Boogie Nights...and the rationale was? Too busy making other films?
I love his voice.

Pallindrom27 2 years ago
dude,I don't favorite things to display my "taste"..normally they arfe used as shortcuts and/or bookmarks.
So judging somebody by their favorites indicates that you favorite clips to say to everybody "hey,this is ME,look what I like!"
You are a pathetic loser.Get a life.
The guy will probably delete this one too,but that's his choice.
Hope you see this.

(Shades of Seinfeld)
Not that there's anything wrong with that!
(The gay thing.I'm quite straight thanks)
I appreciate the retraction and allow me to do the same so that we're even.
One of my mottos is a line that Patrick Swayze said in "Roadhouse":
"Be nice until it's time to NOT be nice."
Unfortunately as soon as someone insults me I respond in kind and usually dont stop until I've given MORE than I got.
I'll drop the block as my OWN "olive branch."
