Doesn't deserve cult status
A forum dedicated to it has more cult status.
Not sure if I've seen it. Is it the one where Ray Winston gives his wife the beating of her life?
I disagree Thetyim, i think it's one of the greats, i never tire of watching it.
i empathise wholly with the first, post speed comedown scene.
i have had some almighty panic attacks and have often compared foot size following nights of drug abuse.
i think they nailed it.
yep.Quote:

It could never be compared to any of the true cult films by the likes of Akira Kurosawa.
Nope, thats Nil by Mouth, quality film.Quote:

I like it, its fucking funny.
Yojimbo 用心棒 -- a classic.
Withwhatever -- never heard of it until Friday.
Times I've seen it: zero.
Can be viewed on youtube in 10 minute chunks, which is shite, but at least it will give folks an idea.
50 or so, i guess.Quote:

anybody that hasn't seen it, really should download the torrent.
it's available on all major torrent sites, so don't say...'link'
link to a major torrent site?
Whole definition of a cult film is that some people really, really like it, whilst others have never heard of it or don't like it. Otherwise it would just be popular.
Just like slimboyfat is a cult poster
was that a typo?Quote:

Yep, I remember now. Was a good film but I remember it disturbed the fuck out of me. Watched it after a hard night in the clubs around Birmingham so probably wasn't in the best state of mind.:)Quote:

no it wasn't.
It made me laugh, and remember the plot.
Can't remember the plot to Withnail and I, just that it was boring shit.
i'm not saying withnail is the best movie of all time, but it would be in my 10 desert island movies.
it's a bit of a feel good film for me.
MrsKW made me watch "Made of Honor" last night, boring girlie twaddle, but she would describe it as a feel good film too.Quote:

Your avatar looks a bit like Ian Astbury without the long hair.
