This movie is the shit, man. That's my dude right there.
Interesting scene. It reminds me of a scene from The Departed. Jack Nicholson says, “I don't want to be a product of my environment; I want my environment to be a product of me.”

I just fuckin watched Quest For Fire the other day and was totally taken by it again. Only scene i recall from childhood is the tree scene when the lions trap 'em. I forgot everything else, so it was all new again. What an awesome movie. The simplicity of that kind of life. Three dumb dudes with spears and one freaky sexy-beast chick wandering around for days looking for fire.

Best AI themed movie I've ever seen. It just ended. I thought it was gonna be low budget because i recognize none of the actors, but director dude killed it. It had 4.5 stars so I thought I'd try it and yeah it was really good. Must watch.

Alto Knights. De Niro plays both Costello and Genovese. Vito's on his way to a commission meeting with the knucklehead who botched the Costello hit. They're passing by Palmyra...

Who talks like that? No one. You would assume they are insane. Why is the driver wearling a fat-face mask?

Well, I do not watch horror flicks, but one time for some reason, I decided to watch Evil Dead. I liked it because it is actually a comedy. So, I decided to acquire the whole series, as two of them I saw were both comedies, not really stupid horror flicks at all. The two I saw were worked out to be parodies of horror flicks.

I like anything AI or modern sci-fi relevant themed. That was good. Thanks for the heads up. I'm surprised you aren't familiar with Jack Quaid. He's very good. His look is a bit disconcerting because he looks in equal parts like both of his parents, Meg Ryan and Dennis Quaid. You don't see that very often.

While this movie was playing in theaters, the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, and Europe was at war.
This movie was released before Pearl Harbor was attacked.

Some folks might say it’s propaganda to sell involvement in a war.
Some could say it’s just true events, told simply like a tale.

Or, it's a dramatization of reality meeting preconceptions, told to God-fearing people of the time.

Not too complicated.
They say that Cooper was first rate but second-best to number one in the business of scene stealing.

Cooper was also first-rate at female seduction. Will America ever return to pre-World War II innocence? Will the story of the "Cowboys and Indians" ever be told the same? It seems that American heroism and exceptionalism have suffered the fate of Chivalry. Was it ever real? Or was it a fabrication of Hollywood movie fiction all along?

Yup, I downloaded the movie. However, as far as AI goes, f****** a toaster oven is not on my bucket list.

However, if robots were programmed correctly, they would make perfect personal trainers.
