It was a Teenage Wedding and the Old Folks Wished them well

Alright Christene, first off is My Best Friends Birthday , than Resivoir Dogs, True Romance, Pulp Fiction, Natural born Killers....
we gots some gold to watch.

This is my gripe.
Why do people insist that Pulp Fiction is Tarantino's best flick? Because it's not. Almost all of them are better. Everyone loves the scene where John Travolta and Uma Thurman dance to Chuck Berry's Teenage Wedding. This is all they talk about. They never want to give it up. Come to terms with it people it's not his best movie.

My personal favorites are Jackie Brown, because it had Pam Grier in it and Coffey truly is the color of her skin and Resivoir Dogs because it had Harvey Keitel (need I say more. I think not).
Though I also feel that True Romance is under rated (Come on people it has Christian Slater how can you go wrong) and Natural Born Killers is comedy gold.
I am a huge fan of Woody Harrelson. He was one of the only reasons I watched Cheers.

Another gripe I have is when Grindhouse came out everyone was talking about Death Proof and how Quentin Tarantino is a god well to be honest Planet Terror was better and Robert Rodreguez deserves props for this it.

Whatever. I'm in.

AC Slater and Christian Slater, Separated at Birth?

I like Christian Slater, and I agree, Tina, no one deserves a comeback more than him.
However, don't get me wrong, but Christian Slater kind of comes off as a greasy old man to me. Even when he was in his 20's he still seemed old. Perhaps that's his appeal. I don't know.
As a young child, I questioned his appeal, as a 27 year old woman, I find his old-greasiness somewhat intriguing, kind of like a plate of devilled eggs left out for like 6 hours at a party. You're not sure if you should eat them and they could make you sick, but they just look so interesting, you just can't resist.
However, i'm not sure if I'm the best person to judge anyone's attractiveness, considering that I have the sex appeal of a Middle Aged, frequent Bingo playing, chain smoking, Surrey Mother who screams at her children to "Shut the Hell up! I'm watching My Stories!" I know you're all thinking it, I'm just keepin' it real. Beeotches. (I'm so street.)
While Tina liked her men a little on the pension-y side, I prefered mine innocent looking. The type of man you could take home to Moms and Pops, the kind of guy who'd never forget to say please and thank you. (It's funny, 'cause the man I married uses the F-word as a noun, go figure.)
And before I forget to touch down on the subject, I think the fact that AC Slater and Christian Slater have the same last name is a coincience. Or they could be related.





AC slater had the best wardrobe. Cut off mesh shirts, acid wash jeans, wrestling uniforms. Whenever he wanted to get a little fancy, he rocked a silk, teal shirt. I don't know anyone else in the entire world who dressed as sharp as AC.






Lift that stool, flex those muscles.

So I Smell A Come-back?

As a chubby awkward thirteen year old I would sit on my bed and watch the opening scene of Kuffs over and over again....You know the scene, the one where Christian Slater is dancing around half naked to "The Futures So Bright I got To Wear Shades" (by Timbuk 3). I am not too sure what it is about C-Slate, maybe its the cool hair, or the sexy voice, the hot body....I can't pin point it but still 11 years later I am still drawn the to charismatic little fucker...

It seemed when Christian was young he was given the cream of the crop of movies, such amazing films like Pump Up The Volume, Heathers, Kuffs, Untamed Hearts, Very Bad Things and Bed of Roses....but then something happened....something called the millennium...no seriously the dude hasn't done a good film since the year 2000....And it saddens me to no end.

Well now its 2008 and I have been itching for a Christian Slater come back for years...I need to feast my eyes on the face I once knew by memory and the TV gods have complied and have delivered forth My Own Worst Enemy(a new TV show featuring the one and only Slater)....I am hoping its good and shoots C-Slate back to fame and fortune so that I can see him shirtless more....
(On a side note do you think the creator of Saved By The Bell loved Christian Slater and that's why they gave AC his last name Slater?)
