Anybody else a fan of this film?

I absolutely love it. Vince Vaughn and John Favreau are excellent co-stars.

Vegas baby!

I projected it.
I have the quad poster.

A great film.

"They never come back until you really forget about them."

That whole scene ad-libbing with the answer-machine is particularly entertaining.

That scene is so cringe-worthy. You just wanna grab the phone and hang up.

The Gretszky scene when they are playing the megadrive is class as well. Poor delivery guy. "Is he clean? Is he polite? Invite him in."

I hardly ever laugh out loud, but I did at the 'baby-talking' scene!

Yeah, I think it was the earliest movie I've seen her in. That girl can dance!

I love the tearing up of the phone number. "Is she looking? How about now? Now?"

A great film; but some of us had been sharking on Heather Graham since 1989's 'Drugstore Cowboy'. Just to be accurate, like...

This must've gotten alot better after I stopped watching it. Two guys saying you're so money for forty minutes was all I could take. This was a few years ago so maybe I'm imagining that it was was than it was. I'll give it another go the next time it comes on TV.


Corporate Spies called John should be neutered.

the film is so money.

Never walk out of a film.

Or write one off without a second viewing at a different moment in your life.

I have to say.... I couldn't really get into this film either, and ended up switching off after half an hour.

Its worth a second shot I take it?

Definitely worth another look. It's a lot like Very Bad Things, but without the murders.

I think that's a rather bad analogy.

Yes.

Maybe we could watch it, with some wine after I've made you some lasagne?

Swingers is a gentle comedy about love and (failed) relationships.

VBT was supposed to be a dark comic affair that came out at the time of the gross-out Farrelly Brothers humour and did not achieve its aims.

I see your analogy, I just things the films are too different.

I actually have a quad for VBT as well, as I projected that too.

Freshly ground mince, lots of garlic, mushroom, tomatoes, basil, oregano and a few freshly chopped chilis sprinkled in.

I'll bring the wine... Red..?

I use mince steak from my local butchers.

Added to how you like it I also you peppers and 3 different types of cheese and a fair whack of pepper.

All served with garlic bread (garlic bread?) and a fresh side salad.

Red is what I drink.

One tries.

Though this total anonimity and lack of communication tends to hamper anything.
