Does anyone else like "Pecker"?

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

1. Har har

Good actor gone wrong. What a waste.

[progmom]

2. Edward Furlong?

[Pale Blue Dot]

3. I didn't see it

But Christina Ricci makes me feel... funny....

[Redneck Socialist]

4. I don't know what it is, but I like it!

:evilgrin:

[Must_B_Free]

5. my friend used to work for John Waters

she said he would offer her $200 to pick his nose for him.

ew....

[progmom]

6. That's surprisingly fucked up

I'm surprised that I'm surprised. But I am.
Sigh.

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

40. Did your friend accept this offer?

[Dogmudgeon]

7. The world needs more Pecker

The best feel-good movie I'd seen since Buster Loves Billie.

--p!

[samplegirl]

8. Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Long hard & steady

[Placebo]

9. A good film, but not Waters' best work.

[Zuni]

33. Polyester is Water's best

in my opinion

[tuvor]

10. I found it UPROARIOUS.

Just like the blurb on the box. Actually, it was pretty good. IMHO, Waters best since Crybaby.

Can't say I've been really fond of his output since then.

[babylonsister]

20. UPROARIOUS!! 3 cheers for

tuvor even using that word!
EDIT: added an "A"

11. I love John Waters but not this one so much.

This is one of those movies that everybody loved but me. :shrug: sort of like the Kevin Smith movie Dogma, i hated it but everybody else LOVED it. I guess it depends on my mood at the time...

[Placebo]

12. Yes, give me 'Female Trouble' anyday.

:)

[jonnyblitz]

13. that is my FAVORITE ONE!!!

I prefer the ones with Divine! I love the part when she kicks down the Christmas tree screaming FUCK YOU because she didnt get her cha cha heels. Pink Flamingos was funny too. I havent seen Desperate Living yet. I need to soon. I might like that one better than Female Trouble.

[Placebo]

15. And those sick owners of the hair salon...

that just keep taking pictures of EVERYTHING!

HaHa! and what's with using tools in the bedroom? and the giant cage? And the woman who wants her boy to be gay? it's just too much! I absolutely love it. :)

Plus, it looks like they made it for a thousand bucks, but that adds to the flavour.

[jonnyblitz]

17. Edith Massey was the woman in the cage

She is so good in his other films too. She was the egg lady in the crib in Pink Flamingos and she had a funny role in Polyester too. John Waters met her in a gay bar in Baltimore where she was a bartendress. You need to see Pink Flamingos if you haven't yet. It was totally disgusting. Divine literally ate poodle shit in that one. She scooched down behind the poodle, waited for it to take a dump , then put it in her mouth for real. EWWWWWW. the other amazing thing about these movies is that they were made in the 70's.

[Placebo]

18. Isn't it weird...

that films like those could be made in the 70s, but if they were made today it would be a MEGA-GIGANTIC-UBER-MASSIVE scandal.

I know they were baaaaaaaaarely released back then and reached a widespread & thin audience, but still. It's like we're going backwards. :(

[jonnyblitz]

21. well...as evidence of your theory

look at how tame Waters' movies became later on, particulary after Divine died. Even Hairspray, which had Divine in it, was pretty tame, almost cutsey, compared to those early films. I rarely like his movies anymore that he comes out with even though I will watch every one ( I didn't like Cecil B. Demented at all). I need to see his most current one. I can't even remember the name of it but it was released relatively recently.

[Placebo]

22. "A Dirty Shame"

I agree with you 100%, I didn't like Cecil B. Demented at all, but I do confess, I love Serial Mom :)

[jonnyblitz]

23. LOL

I liked that one too. I liked it when Kathleen Turner was making obscene phone calls to Mink Stole (that is the name she uses) who just happened to play the role of Taffy, the daughter in Female Trouble, also. I kind of liked the one with Johnny Depp (another one from the 80's I think, maybe not) when I first saw it too. I forget the name of that one.

[Placebo]

25. "PUSSY willows, Dotty."

*said in deep, scratchy, Kathleen Turner voice* :evilgrin:

[Zuni]

37. How about Polyester?

That is by far his funniest movie ever

[Kire]

14. I'm so tempted to make this into a copycat thread, but I'm skerr-d.

Does anyone else like "Dick"?



Comedy about two high school girls who wander off during a class trip to the White House and meet President Richard Nixon. They become the official dog walkers for Nixon's dog Checkers, and become his secret advisors during the Watergate scandal.

16. That movie was good...

cheap thrills :D

[Robeson]

26. I here ya, its almost too easy...

[progmom]

28. LOVED this movie

Thanks for the reminder. I think I need to add it to my netflix list!

[Zuni]

35. I thought that movie was surprisingly funny

didn't think it would be any good, but I ended up loving it.

My favorite characters were Will Farrell and the dude from kids in the Hall as Woodward and Bernstein

[Robeson]

19. I like mine....

...sorry, I couldn't resist.

[Cadence]

24. It's been so long

I don't remember... ;)

[Moloch]

27. LOL yes...

It's one of the better John Waters movies and IMO his best since 'Hairspray'

and Edward Furlong is just TOO cute, too bad about that whole heroin addiction thing.

[terrya]

29. How can you NOT like a movie about teabagging?

:-)

[Cyndee_Lou_Who]

30. Nice work!!

:hi:

[progmom]

39. Thanks for the idea!

:yourock:

[Cyndee_Lou_Who]

41. You are so kickin' my ass on the race to 1k. So much for the

Thelma and Louise idea! I guess you get 1st shot at Brad Pitt. MMMMMMMM
:hi:

[progmom]

43. Well hurry it up, Cyndee Lou!

I'll try to slow down.

[mondo joe]

31. Love it. Pecker and Hairspray are a great combo.

It's not that I don't love Female Trouble or Pink Flamingos or Desperate Living.

But Pecker and Hairspray are so much FUN.

[Zuni]

36. One of my good friends was an extra in the dance show scenes in Hairspray

[Zuni]

32. I love John Waters movies

They are hilarious. Plus, they all take place in Baltimore.

[arwalden]

34. John Waters Is A Comic Genius.

[buddhamama]

38. John Waters is brilliant

Pecker is my fave Waters' film- i like them all though.

[SOteric]

42. John Waters is a dark and twisted genius.
