I say "Yipee-kai-aye" too!

Bump!

We ought to make a point to buy a ticket and enjoy ourselves. I love a good action flick.

However, I don't think boycotting these boneheaded Hollywood types is effective, because they don't mind losing money making boring movies... as is seen here, they'll be giving these tedious hasbeens more roles "just because". .

[LegionofDorkness]

Go see Tears of the Sun this weekend. It won't be until Terminator 3 comes out before we have another chance to support a Hollywood Republican

[Luis Gonzalez]

I plan to.

[Cincinatus]

Ah yes, .. Last Man Standing, a re-make of A Fistfull of Dollars, which was itself a re-make of Yojimbo.

Who says there no originality in the film industry?

Thanks John for this article....we need to support Willis at the box office....that's how Hollyweird measures everything, with $'s.

Willis is a great guy........and there are plenty of us who see it; know it. He's one helluvan actor as well. I'll patronize his films, for he has earned it. He has more courage (personal, professional) than any 100 of his "peers" in Hollywood combined.

Rock on, Bruce.

[The Wizard]

Go Bruce, go.....I support this guy 1000%

[GodBlessRonaldReagan]

If Bruce Willis can't act, then how do you explain his stellar turn in Pulp Fiction???

[JohnHuang2]

Welcome, friend, and amen to what you said.

[exile]

Finally I can watch movies without feeling guilty. I'm going to rent everything Mr. Willis has done.

"...his career has survived all of the set-backs the Left so voraciously relishes (see any review for Hudson Hawk..."

Personally, I thought that Hudson Hawk was one of the funniest movies that I've ever seen, a sheer nonsensical movie of the Laurel and Hardy, Abbott and Costello, Marx Brothers type of films.

It's also about the only time that I've been able to stand Sandra Berhard, who plays Minerva Mayflower. In this role, she fits the mold of the character perfectly. Richard E. Grant, as her power-mad husband Darwin Mayflower, is probably better known for his portrayal of the Scarlet Pimpernel on A&E, but he also does a hysterically funny over-the-top villain. James Coburn spoofs himself (going back to the "Our Man Flint" spy movies) as the CIA agent leading a pack of "new kids on the block" code-named after candy bars.

I don't care what anyone says ... much as I enjoyed the animated roto-scoped version of "Lord of the Rings", the roto-scoped animated "Wizards", and all of my Three Stooges, Marx Brothers, Abbott and Costello, and Laurel and Hardy movies, "Hudson Hawk" is a movie that I re-watch at least once a month.

Or how about that scene in "Four Rooms"? Another Tarrentino jewel. I went right out and bought a Zippo lighter and I don't even smoke.

I've always liked BW's movies, and now I guess I know why. Time for me to go out and stock up on BW movies. I didn't know he was such a suporter (I don't pay much attention to the goofy antics of the Wholywierd crowd).

[the crow]

Willis bump! This will be the first movie I've been to in years.

"If you guys vote for Al Gore, you're out of your minds… Gore's a knucklehead… just the lying and mendacity of the last eight years of the regime that Al Gore was a part and parcel of… I mean, there is only so much lying the American people will take before they go, 'Uh, this doesn't seem like a good idea.' You have to look at what he does and what he stands for."


I am so glad that there are still men in Hollywood of whom I can be proud of. Say on Bruce, you the man!!!!
