    Stop buying bottom shelf crap. I remember when I was 10 and I thought beer was gross!

    As Adam Carolla taught us long ago on Loveline, boys are grossed out but men enjoy real flavors. Mustard, cigars, pussy.

    Stick to ketchup and soda if you want, but don’t act like you’re winning the flavor wars with your Mt Dew > fine scotch take.
    Nummy phase, confirmed.

    You don’t gotta get upset about it Freeme. Scotch tastes shitty. As I said, some are better than others, but pretending like a glass of scotch tastes good is stupid and I think anyone that pretends it’s good is lying to themselves and has to prove they are a man by liking it. What does buying bottle barrel shelf crap (which I don’t) have anything to do with this?

    I like the taste of some beer and wine. I don’t really drink for taste anyways. I’ll pretty much drink anything and it will be fine and do the job.
    I just assumed by your dislike that you’d never had REAL/GOOD Scotch.

    Sounds like you just prefer a handle of Monarch vodka with a Jolly Rancher thrown in for taste.

    Ran out of vodka last night and threw my renewed emphasis on a slimmer Throbber to the wind. Mixed four fingers of Trader Joe's Winter Wheat Bourbon with just a splash of some pre-mix old fashioned nectar. Pretty damned good for TJ brand. Now, the massive peach edible thing may have also enhanced the experience but I digress...

    I don't know if it is actually good, but I knew an alcohol rep that would get Glenfiddich blue all the time. I’ve probably drank it 10 times. I also had an even better Glenfiddich one time where the host was raving about what a rare bottle it was. I’ve also had McCallan. All of them were gross. I drank it fine, but it’s not good, which was my original point.

    Haven’t done Monarch or any cheap vodka for a couple of years. Don’t like it or hate it. I will drink it if it’s there and I’m already drunk.

    When I drink, I drink to get drunk. None of the social drinking bullshit. Either I’m drinking I’m not. Nobody actually loves the taste of bourbon, gin, tequila, etc. So using words like delicious is FS.

    Did not read through everyone’s list yet but made sure I haven’t posted already as not to repeat myself.

    Guarantee mine will be way off from most here 180 degrees, but that’s par for course caus my lingo seems to be not understandable by many. But here goes:

    1: Lonesome Dove—I know it’s not a movie per say but could be a long one of fashioned together. It’s the GOAT.

    Really in no particular order:

    The Outlaw Josey Whales
    PREDATOR
    Smokey and the Bandit
    Life(EM and ML)
    El Dorado
    The Good, Bad, and Ugly
    North To Alaska
    Dances With Wolves
    Rio Bravo

    Could include a few more westerns but 10’s the max here.

    I thought the whole point was that they wanted to get to that bridge and secure it. Remember the scene where Captain Miller is going over the map with some other guy and pointing to that bridge as critical for the Germans so that they could retreat and regroup or for their supply lines or some shit? I think that's why they were in, what was it, Romel?, in the first place.

    Then again, I know nothing about being a soldier and will defer to those of you who do.

    Agreed; the score for Mohicans is epic. Pretty much anything Daniel Day Lewis touches is the real deal. No accident that he's in two of my top 10. Bill the Butcher takes the fucking cake though. Holy shit that is Deniro in Taxi Driver-level acting.

    I myself liked the journey they took in SPR. Wandering through France and the dialogue about what they were doing. The death scene of the medic was heavy. "My liver. Oh my God my liver." Heavy.

    But the opening scene is so intense and well done it's hard to improve from there. Watched it for the first time after buying a good surround sound system and the bullets were clanging off metal all around me.
    Clearing houses is time intensive and the bridge was the key terrain, i.e., the bridge is critical to the success of the operation to one side or even both.

    I agree that SPR slows down way too much at points but it’s highlighted by great scenes in between with Danson and the stand-off, going through the dog tags as 82nd & 101st guys March by and then the German recon half track getting blown up.

    Mohicans is incredible. Nuff said on that.

    Gladiator still holds up as does the Departed.

    I watched Matrix a couple years ago and it doesn’t hold up as well IMO. Same with Superbad.

    OG Predator is still a fucking classic with an incredible cast.

    Yep. Watch OG-P with my daughter in the last year, she even enjoyed it.

    I played out the movie in my head enough times to figure out how long from insertion to pick up Arnold was in the jungle. It’s about 48 hours in case you’re wondering.
