This does not surprise me, Rob. Although I haven't yet read a post of his denigrating our hero, he has made some truly offensive posts otherwise. I would second the motion you make in the last clause above without a single qualm.
I'm glad that you have not read his posts degenerating John Wayne, healthy criticism is one thing, however to mock people with cancer and to delight in their suffering to me is sick and a primary reason as to why I rarely frequent the IMDB any longer.
Braveheart was just a stupid, racist piece of rubbish. Hitler would be very proud of garbage like that. I hope Mel gets lung cancer.
Can I just bring everyone's attention to JohnWayneFan4Life, this individual is a well known serial troll from the IMDB site, he spews out the same nonsense over there, particularly but certainly not exclusively against John Wayne. He has been banned under a litany of usernames dating back to 2005, he has written thousands of posts berating John Wayne as racist taking sadistic delight in his "slow and painful death" from cancer.
I am truly horrified to learn that this troll is now on Dukewayne.com, this is something that I hope the moderators rectify quickly.
Stumpy
Have you ever seen "Big Country," with Peck this is an absolute gem of a western.
Several actors of the Duke's generation I liked almost as much as him. I imagine they were also favorites of most folks on this board. Henry Fonda, Gregory Peck, Jimmy Stewart and others. But I'd have to say that movies with which I was most disappointed were made by these icons because naturally, I expected better from them. Some films featuring the aforementioned actors that really disappointed me were: "MacKenna's Gold", "The Snows of Kilimanjaro", "The Cheyenne Social Club", "Battle of the Bulge", "Firecreek" and "Harvey". There have been other disappointments but those were the main ones.
"Harvey," this is one of my favourite movies and Stewart is terrific in it, I suppose its back to that old adage of 'different strokes for different folks'.
I'm also going to really annoy you Stumpy by telling you that I have always found "MacKenna's Gold," thoroughly enjoyable, not Oscar material but certainly not a turkey in my opinion.
A movie that did not live up to the hype for me was "Shrek," I thought it was really lame and could not watch the movie to the end.
