                Glad to know you also like President Bush, and yes Kurt Russel is definitely a great actor. I liked him in Miracle.

                  Kurt did his best acting when he was a kid. Now all you get is a carbon copy of the last movie he did. Boring!

                  I actually had a run in with Kurt several years ago, and he is not a pleasant person in my experience.

                    Yes, I said he is not a pleasant person in my experience!

                      The Great Booby Boo,

                      Self-fulfilling prophecy my friend, you probably got exactly what you expected from your run-in with Kurt

                        By the by,

                        I happen to really like Kurt too, its not always just great acting that makes an actor likeable, sometimes just the roles we see them in are enough. We cant pretend that we really know the person, so we go off of what we Have seen, namely their movies. Lets admitt one thing, Kurt was a Horriible actor in his role as Snake, but how could you not vote for the bad guy saving the world!

                          Kurt Russell is a great actor. And this movie sounds like it can also be pretty damn good.

                                brettodactyl, sorry but i was kidding. whoever thinks russell is a great actor (and bush a great president) needs to have their radar checked.

                                  Excellent counterpoint, phipsi..thanks for having my back! Now, to get to this SEZWHO character. You can check my radar all you want pile boy (or girl). How did Prez Bush get suckered into this convo with Kurt Russell? I happen to dig them both. Can't argue politics with you now...not in the mood to hear any liberal, faggy, crybaby bellyaching on how Bush is a failure. Wake the muck up and thank your little white stars you live in PEACE and FREEDOM. While I don't agree with him all the time, he's the MAN for now, you sack.

                                    Yes, Sezwho, I was simply using your sarcasm to make my own sarcastic comment in return. And, last time I checked, my radar was in excellent condition, so I can rest assured that my favorable opinions of Russell and Bush (don't really know how this ended up being about Bush, lol) are well-founded. But, everyone's entitled to their own opinions.
