25th Hour

This movie is on Encore right now. This is probably my favorite Spike Lee joint. I love Rosario Dawson in that silver dress.

"Champagne for my real friends, and real pain for my sham friends."

The speech that Norton gives in the bathroom mirror is fantastic. I agree, one of my favorite Spike Lee flicks. And the ending is a gut puncher.

[Trejo]

Love love love this one - just full of spot-on performances, gut punches, and masterful monologues. Norton, Pepper and PSH really deliver in this one.. and the speech with Cox's "happy" version of the ending and then you see them not taking the exit ramp.. kills me every time.

I need to go watch this again now.

[Nathan]

Need to rewatch. Mind bender as I recall.

[Abraham Smashington]

Barry redeems himself in this one after the shit fest that is Battlefield Earth. It's already on my Netflix instant watch.

[Nathan]

May need to watch this tonight if it is on instant.

Definitely need to see this...I remember seeing the preview in the theatre and never actually going to check it out. I think I own the DVD...has to check...If not on Demand it is.

[Captain Russ]

If Pepper hadn't done B.E., I don't think he'd be able to put so much anger and disappointment into turning Norton's face into a giant wad of hurt.

Definitely a must watch movie. The "fuck you" scene is classic.

[Captain Russ]

Also classic: "Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeit"-uttering Clay Davis makes an appearance.

Fuck, Spike. Quit sissy-fighting Guy Whitey Corngood and just make a Do The Right Thing sequel.

Yeah, I said it.

Whenever I see BP in a movie I can't disassociate him from his character Jackson, the sniper in Saving Private Ryan.

"Sir... I have an opinion on this matter. From my way of thinking, sir, this entire mission is a serious misallocation of valuable military resources. It seems to me, sir, that God gave me a special gift, made me a fine instrument of warfare. Well, what I mean by that, sir, is... if you was to put me and this here sniper rifle anywhere up to and including one mile of Adolf Hitler with a clear line of sight, sir... pack your bags, fellas, war's over. Amen."

I <3 that line and that movie...too great.
