I always liked Nick Nolte in any role but damn...

[SteveSS]

I was watching one of his most famous scenes from 48 hours and thinking how this wouldn't get filmed today. It actually looks like it hurts. Watermelon? Really?

Start at about 47 seconds.

 

[Budnicks]

he's a shell of himself today
liberalism & alcoholism is his crutch now

'who will stop the rain' was a good flick

 

[mmissile]

BFD. Ow, my thin skin........

Imagine how boring all the classic movies would have been, in they'd been as stupidly PC as they are now. That's why the big movies these days are comics. We live in a society of adult-aged children.

 

[SteveSS]

this makes me laugh at 42 seconds

 

[beanhead]

Aw, he didn't mean that stuff, he was just doing his job. Just keeping Hamilton down.

 

[Aeronet]

I hear Hollywood is catering to Chinese audiences these days.
Watch Paper Moon. Great movie. No one will ever make a movie like that again.

 

[Aeronet]

Yeah, Beanhead, that's The Man's job (keeping you down). Someone's got to do it or we end up with anarchy.

 

[oldbee]

Nick’s movies? ‘Under Siege’. He does looks like the alcohol has got to him.

I think that was Gary Busey...

 

[Aeronet]

China's a bigger market. Sucks for us.

Ur right,my bad.

 

[beanhead]

Yeah, Beanhead, that's The Man's job (keeping you down). Someone's got to do it or we end up with anarchy.

I was quoting from the movie! 'Course I haven't seen it in years....
You guys ever see U-Turn? Disturbing movie and he fit right in...

 

[texas69bee]

Yep, he has seen better days.

 

[Aeronet]

Sorry.

 

[Sahara]

North Dallas 40 was one of his first and a fantastic movie. I thought his performance was Oscar worthy.

Aw he was just auditioning!

 

[wasco]

Wow, you guys are harsh! That mugshot was years ago, he's nearly 80 now, and has accumulated an impressive amount of quality work. I'll take someone who has actually lived, made mistakes and owned up to them over these entitled trust-fund brats of today.

 

[SteveSS]

There are days I could take a mug shot looking like that. I guess he was banging Jacqueline Bisset during that movie The Deep. She dropped him because he was banging every girl on the island. During his prime he could get the women. That voice could peel rust off a frame at 50 feet. That's gotta be a 3 pack a day voice.

 

[Kern Dog]

That generation had great voices. Remember the great radio and TV announcers? I'd LOVE to have a voice like that but I don't smoke!
