I was watching "Demolition Man" (it's a guilty pleasure) earlier today, and during the scene where John Spartan is being thawed out, there is a quick shot of a monitor that shows the names of other prisoners who are in cryostasis with him. One of them is Scott Peterson.

I don't know why this is a guilty pleasure. The film is brilliant, sends respectful nods out to Brave New World, and is prophetic. One day commercial jingles will be the new entertainment, if this isn't happening already. Plus, I wouldn't be surprised if Arnold does indeed become president of the USA. Oh, and the sense of humour of the film is great. Okay, the movie has a couple of problems, but still, one of the best action pictures out there.

They just don't make 'em like that anymore.

PS: Do you know how to use the three seashells?

I wouldn't normally call someone on this, but you are Canadian, so you might not know. Arnold can't ever be president unless the criteria for being president changes. He wasn't born in the US.

Actually I know this, but in the film they mentioned reversing the requirement.

Ah, ok. Haven't seen the film in a long time and had forgotten that part. Really I just remember the cops being incompetent and Snipes going apeshit on a ATM.

I reference this movie as being the best movie ever made in every day conversations quite frequently. Gets good reactions.

One time me and a friend got stoned and talked about how we always wanted to be the leader of anti-establisment rebellion in the post-apocalyptic future, a la John Connor or.........that's right, Denis Leary in Demolition Man!!!!

Oh yeah.........but it really is true that they just don't make em like this anymore. What the hell kind of movies are we supposed to drink beer to and make fun of nowadays?!?!

I remember listing this as my favorite movie of all time when I was in grade 6

Although I wasn't aware of the tongue in cheek political commentary at the time.

I saw this in the theatre when it first came out... I went to the preview screening with a friend. She fell asleep during the film and I was mildly amused.

I saw it again just a little while ago... I still think it could have been better.
