03.27.13 | rec me a good poker movie. I remember liking Maverick back in the day and Rounders is awesome but don't know what else to check out. |
KSK1
03.27.13 | Came to suggest Rounders damn |
SeaAnemone
03.27.13 | just too many to list |
Atari

YoYoMancuso

anarchistfish

Rounders is good too |
DominionMM1
03.27.13 | th cincinnati kid

the gambler (made for TV movie starring Kenny himself) |
Atari
03.27.13 | sweet. cincinnati kid sounds cool hopefully it's not too hard to find. |

03.27.13 | "casino royale cos it's probably one of the best films ever anyway"
fucking LOL what a crock |
Atari
03.27.13 | rounders is definitely better than casino royale IMO but those are like 2 completely different kinds of movies. |
anarchistfish
03.27.13 | are you looking for a fight? |
anarchistfish
03.27.13 | what no, forget the poker bit, casino royale kills rounders stone dead |
Atari
03.27.13 | if you say so ;) hell i probably liked skyfall beter than casino royale |
americanohno
03.27.13 | A Big Hand for a Little Lady |
omnipanzer
03.27.13 | Maverick |
omnipanzer
03.27.13 | Crap you already have it in your first comment... sorry it, Rounders and maybe Lock Stock and Two Smoking barrels are it.. and I would barely consider Lock stock a good "Poker" movie.
I could come up with a few about heists involving gambling. |
Atari
03.27.13 | yeah Maverick rules i just haven't seen it in years. Any movie about gambling or cards is cool doesn't have to be strictly about poker. |
Trebor.
03.27.13 | Casino Royale
|
Atari
03.27.13 | i'll never play online i like to have actual chips and cards in front of me. i think that's illegal in the US now too. |
omnipanzer
03.27.13 | I think they play go fish in The Lorax. |
Atari
03.27.13 | lol lorax was awful the songs were just so bad |
firewasp
03.27.13 | John Malkovich's Russian accent was painful and almost ruined the only scene he was in |
Atari
03.27.13 | first of all it's more than one scene. matt damon plays KBJ (malkovich) at the beginning of the movie AND at the end. Also Malkovich is flawless in that movie so get the fuck out. |
Atari
03.27.13 | yeah i figured it'd be hard to top rounders oh well. |
firewasp
03.27.13 | no watch it again it is ridiculous, with the oreo's and his terrible accent it makes me laugh just thinking about it |
Atari
03.27.13 | @firewasp, i own it on blu ray i've seen it plenty of times. His character is supposed to be weird and the whole oreo thing is hilarious that's the whole point.
|
Atari
03.27.13 | well fuck rounders it is |
firewasp
03.27.13 | i understand that hes suppose to be eccentric but the cookies and the track suit and overacting and the butchered accent " he bit me" "he tripped me" "sun of bitch" equals worst part of the movie for me. I also thought his character didn't fit into the rest of the movie because he felt like an oddity for the sake of being odd. |
firewasp
03.27.13 | ya but i just didnt believe it |
Atari
03.27.13 | well fuck you and your opinions. jk but seriously that movie wouldn't have been the same without john malkovich's character. matt damon is great in that movie too though. |
firewasp
03.27.13 | i agree, my main gripe with his character was the accent |
Atari
03.27.13 | are you russian or something? lol who cares if his accent wasn't perfect I've never even noticed it. |
