Kind of put me off too, but I really enjoyed Pulp Fiction.

Fair play to Travolta for the way he re-marketed himself as a gritty action hero because with early roles like Grease and Saturday Night Fever he could have easily been stereotyped as a poor mans Fred Astaire.
 
Only got a B at GCSE too, was mortified with that too if I'm honest. All A*'s on coursework.
Maybe I shoulda revised <laugh>
Only got one A in GCSE -- that was in music. All I did was piss about on guitars, but boy could I play a mean ass A-grade version of Johnny B Goode <diva>

Not good considering I was predicted all A's throughout most things...

I'd expect you to get an 'A' at everything AH.

Yeh, fairplay to him in re-inventing himself. But that doesnt mean he's bareable to watch. Only one man could pull off prancing around, and that man was Patrick Swayze!

Point Break though, classic film!

No prancing in that!

<laugh> I got a C at GCSE! Completely **** the bed in the coursework! Was 3minutes from being kicked off the course!

We needed a B to do A Level but i may have snuck into the class somehow!

I got 2 A's at GCSE, Maths and Statistics, Maths was then my worst A Level :(

I was supposed to be getting A's and A*'s but too many pieces of **** coursework and lack of revision screwed me.

And boy could he prance around. Couldn't carry off the action hero side so well though. Was ok in Point Break but was never credible in Road House. What a terrible film that was :)

My coursework was actually pretty decent, think that's the only reason I got B's in most of my subjects. It was just exams that I sucked at. Even maths <yikes> And I hated maths. Was a good subject though, I was always one of those "intelligent student but likes to pretend he doesnt care to teachers but they're okay with it cuz you're generally quite a nice student" students...
My maths teacher was also on Wheel of Fortune once... cue endless days of me and a mate watching re runs on challenge in all our free periods <diva>

Wish the same could be same about my degree work <laugh>



(nice sneaky name change ;) NWPJ will be upset though :()

Hey you've dropped the Ben. Have I missed something? Are you trying to join the A-Team? :)
 
YES! Great film. Only seen it once, should really fish it out the old dvd stack again. Isnt Keanu Reeves in it aswell?

seen it a few times myself, only the other day actually.
Yes he is. Plays the undercover policeman

Not sure on Keanu Reeves if I'm honest, I LIKE him, but dont rate him as an actor - bit wooden I find.

Was going to say something similar. Seems an alright guy,just has no real personality in films. He's ok in Speed though.
