Ruining a John Wayne classic?

[2dimes]

Or improving it?

Time will tell.

One of those actors who forgot what their job was and started using their profile to whine about politics. Talk about fading away.

Do you ever say anything positive? Or nice?

Checking memory........nope.....you don't. Sad.

I was s-c-a-r-e-d of John Wayne when I was a kid. I remember a movie where somebody betrayed him and he beat the guy to death with his fists. I'd seen movies with people shot, stabbed, hanged, run over by tanks, and all that is normal when you're a boy and you watch lots of war movies and stuff. But the sheer visceral fear that comes from seeing someone beaten to death with fists alone was something completely different and powerful, and it stuck with me for years.

Well, duh! I know movies aren't real, but movies (good ones anyway) can make you feel as if they're real. And the threshold of belief is much lower when you're eight or nine or however old I was.

Sorry. Um, you have a great smile?

I prefer False Flakes for breakfast. I don't care for the texture of True Grit.

A bit of a history lesson: this was the last suggestion ever made by MrBenn. He made it June 2011 and it was just implemented now. The context is that Andy Dufresne had suggested a ton of movie names that would work as forum names and then other users followed with some suggestions.

Wasn't John Wayne replaced by Clint Eastwood? Who's going to replace Clint Eastwood?

[Bentelbow]

Maybe Tom Hardy..

Time for a musical segue:

------No, it's not ruining a classic.........Jeff Bridges all ready took care of that in 2010... ....The snow flakes in Cali...Stopped Cali from have Wayne's B-Day a State Holiday...I thought Cali was a bad choice for that anyway..."F" hollyweak....Texas,Kansas,Montana or Wyoming would be better places for a John Wayne Day!!!...After all,he won The West and World War II for America...
