Movies That Didn’t Actually Happen • Page 206

That movie came out when I was 14. I remember that one.

 

I saw that movie on HBO because I was a horny middle school student. There’s a scene where Ross snorts a line of Coke off a woman’s fake breasts.

 

good for him

 

It was one the year’s best films, and you all don’t remember? And you call yourselves cinephiles.

 

The craziest part of this to me is branding Chris Cooper as a “young doctor”. He has never been young in any movie, ever.

 

Chris Cooper has been 60 years old for 30 years now

 

Don’t know if this qualifies, since I guess it had a second life after Jimin from BTS said it inspired him to write a song about it.

Still, a very funny premise on paper where a guy (RIP Anton) is separated from the person he loves because of a visa and has to settle for Jennifer Lawrence.

 

first memory i have of him was in october sky when they played us that film in high school science class

 

never saw it, but i miss anton, he was great in this one

 

I would consider October Sky to be the number one "shown at school" movie for the late 90s/early 00s

 

that one and this one

 

I have less memory of this one actually. But I do believe you

 

science class as well, science class loved showing films to not have to teach us heh3

oh and i think thats the film uma and ethan met on and later married and then later divorced

 

late to the party but I honestly had a really good time with The Electric State.

and The Woman in Cabin 10 (the novel) is like a super huge mega bestseller, so I'm not sure the movie fits here (though by all accounts it's not very good).

 

i never heard of the book or the movie, but all is welcome in this thread, and the electric state sounds familiar, glad you enjoyed it!

 

good flick, I should rewatch

 

Gattaca has been thoroughly re-evaluated and it is usually considered a major film nowadays. It did bomb at the time, though.

 

I liked Gattaca.

 

One of the first movies about the 2008 recession, if I recall!

 

It was up there with this one

 

I loved that movie lol

 

Oh for sure!! Good pull

 

I remember someone once said that October Sky was the first movie released directly to schools. It definitely felt like it.
