What a tragic loss it was for us when Philip Seymour Hoffman passed. So many great performances; remember what a bad ass he was in Mission Impossible III? What wonderful range of characters; I miss his talent and feel his loss similar to guitarist/singer Lowell George. Drug and alcohol abuse doesn’t discriminate.

He was so good with your favorite Jimmy Stewart lookalike Tom Hanks in Charlie Wilson’s War (2007).

I had the privilege of seeing Philip Seymour Hoffman in a small off broadway play entitled Jack Goes Boating.

It was later made into a movie

The War Of The Gargantuas 1966! I was 3 years old when this was released, and I vividly remember seeing it after school one day in 1970 or 1971. There was an afternoon daily movie here in the midwest, and they called it "The Early Show". My parents were out in the fields (ag) and so I saw this and literally had nightmares for the next year.

OK, so maybe it's not 1966. Actually if it were 1970, that would make mmore sense that they were showing it on The Early Show.

Wow, never even heard of that one before, we laugh now at this sort of stuff, but I actually think it's pretty good special effects for its time.
I guess the gal was an afternoon snack

Will Smith was great as The Greatest. Jon Voight also good as always.

That clip just celebrated its 50th on March 7th. The Agony of Defeat: Vinko Bogataj wiped out 50 years ago - Sportscasting | Pure Sports

Vinko Bogataj is now an award winning painter. At least he got to taste the thrill of victory after all.

Will Smith was great as The Greatest.

I'm a big Will fan. Great in MIB trilogy and these surprised me as well:

The Giant Behemoth (1959) is an English monster movie that I watched at least five times in one week alone. It always amazed me how they could get away with repeating same scene showing people running away from the monster in this genre of movie. Gorgo was another one I watched repeatedly. I suspect I liked British monsters, thus my fascination with British invasion bands.

English Bob : Well, Sir, again I don't wish to give offense
when I suggest that this country should select a, uh, king or even a queen instead of a president.

This thread has certainly inspired me. Well, not to watch a movie...but at least consider watching a movie. Might have to dig out my blu of Unforgiven. What a freaking awesome movie.

The trailer is good too:
In a time when lawmen were killers. Outlaws were heroes.
And a bad reputation was as good as gold...
