I thought it was pretty cool. The moment of shock when Tom Petty appears, as himself, is pretty amusing.

I don't know why either, it's a good story. Of course, the book kicked far more ass IMHO, but the movie was fine as far as I'm concerned Just a little long for some people, I guess.

kinda... he does like his apocalypse movies...

i liked the postman more than waterworld...

Who the fuck would be inspired by a mailman? "Look it's a mailman, let's feed him and follow his holy word!"

the postman with tom petty and kein costner? i love film. it bombed at the box office...i thought it was CooL. especially tom petty's scenes and it was partly shot on whidbey island (deception pass where i went to high school!)
is that the film you mean?
-shannon

yup. :)

tom petty really gets my goat in a good way!!!

Any movie with Tom Petty in it kicks ass... *L* =)

The new one with Costner? r0x0rish film. Anyone who says otherwise needs to be shot into space aboard a small capsule. With Kathie Lee for a cellmate.

i liked it. different than the book, but still a good movie. i think people just like to make fun of kevin costner.

Costner.

I think he got a bit full of himself, and people dissed him for that.

However, I actually *liked* Waterworld ... it may have been a little slow, but most movies move too fast, and there are times when it's nice to relax a little and understand a movie as it goes along ...

okay. maybe it's just me, but i saw this on christmas day with an egg nogged up rowdy bunch way back in ...eh...96? and it was horrible! maybe it's just because costner takes himself way too seriously, or maybe it was the war camp led by the copier machine guy. very shogun. but not. 'cause it was lame.

anyway, that's how memory serves, and that may not be all that reliable...

hi. i'm going to do my homework now. i promise. ;-P

yeah, that's about accurate.... but i enjoyed it because the idea was cool.... civilization going under because of war, and losing all our technology.

sounds fun. ;)
