I'll admit, some of my votes are affected by how recently I've seen these movies. Some I haven't seen in 30 years

Since it already seems a foregone conclusion, I'll throw out there that John McClane is treating Martin Riggs about the same way I'd envision Bruce Willis handling Mel Gibson if they ever got in a real fight.
I don't know man. Gibson has always struck me as someone that has crazy mongo fight strength.

#7 Big 67%, #23 Fletch 33%

All of you that voted for Big over Fletch are morons and should be ashamed. I would deport each and everyone of you if I could. This is worse than Raising Arizona getting upset.

A f'ing sappy, body switch movie beat out Chevy Chase in his prime. Oh, look! Tom Hanks is playing an oversized musical instrument with his feet. Give him the f'ing Oscar already and make this Best Picture!!!

I hate all of you.
Not a fan of either.

Sorry your has been SNL not very funny actor lost.

Urban Ag: And you are?

YouBet: I are pissed!

I love Back to the Future, but I have always hated the idea that if the parents didn't get together then all the kids would fade out of existence.

Thanks to Avengers: Endgame, my opinion has been validated.

Didn't the actor also play some other really weird/awful characters, afterwards?

Stella Baines:
He's a very strange young man.
Sam Baines:
He's an idiot. Comes from upbringing. His parents are probably idiots too. Lorraine, if you ever have a kid that acts that way I'll disown you.

He does play Mr World on American Gods and I'm not certain I like anyone's performance on that show other than Pablo Schreiber

No, it isn't. DPS is clearly a better film.
