Big Trouble in Little China and The Thing Rock. I thought both of the "escape from" movies were kinda mediocre. Tombstone is great. I liked Soldier quite a bit. I'm gonna have to go with Stargate. Stargate was such an interesting movie that 2 TV series were spawned off of it, one of them running for like 10 years or something ...

That gets triple points because Seagal plays an asshole who dies early on and then Halle Barry plays a hot stewardess who helps them. Then the guy who played the scientist in Terminator 2 and Oliver Platt try disarming the bomb. Actually I don't even like that movie, but nevertheless I can see the appeal.

"Yessir, the check is in the mail."


i agree Jack Burton FTW

What about 3000 Miles to Graceland? It was epically bad, like Reindeer Games bad.

Holy crap, he was the voice for Elvis in Forrest Gump?

No one's mentioned Backdraft yet?

When Stargate first came out on DVD, I rented it. Recently I watched the complete Atlantis then SG1 series within 3 months and was going through Stargate withdrawal(kept having dreams with SG1 in them ) decided to watch Stargate(movie) again. I had totally forgot that O'Neill was played by Kurt Russel. Very good movie for sure, all storyline inconsistencies with the Series aside, but I don't agree that it's his best.

Going to have to vote for: Big Trouble in Little China. That movie I can watch again and again, enjoying it just as much each time.

I might vote for the Thing, but it's been so long ago that all I really remember is that I thought it was good. I barely remember the Escape movies, Used Cars ditto, probably haven't watched Tombstone because I burned out on Westerns while young, not even sure I've heard about Silkwood, Tango & Cash(with Sly Stallone?) I didn't like at all, Overboard was ok, and of the others mentioned I really like Soldier.

Soldier is too shitty for words. They never even explained why there are a bunch of people living on a garbage planet.

Overboard is hilarious, though.

I thought they said they had crashed in a colony ship or some such.

Anyways. I vote for
Big trouble inLittle China
Stargate
The Thing
Everything else.

Kurt Russell becomes the next Chuck Norris? Do I dare dream......



The Thing > *Other Kurt Russell Movies

Hard to believe all the mentions of Soldier, which was garbage... IMO of course. I mean it's a cheezy action movie that seems to focus more on drama than action.... acting from everyone is really bad, the story is completely predictable, cliche', etc. Yeah his best work ever. lol!

Kurt Russel is a wart on America's cock and I'll never understand what the big deal is with him.
