From the movie Cherry 2000. In the movie the hero has just lost his sex robot and is trying to date human women for the first time in a while.
12 0 ReplyIt's a favorite campy classic of mine. I love bad movies.
I also think it's one of those films with a great idea but terrible execution that could be remade.
I want to see a remake where Cherry 2000 actually has agency and consciousness and at the end of the film the two women run away together leaving the creepy guy behind.
I always thought a remake could have Chris Elliott as the creepy guy and he would kill it in such a role.

One of the main characters is Gigolo Joe played by judge law

flicks neck, music starts playing
2 0 ReplyProbably because it wasn't super well received by audiences and kind of got forgotten by a lot of folks.
It only holds a 64% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. It's definitely not hated but it's not a deeply well liked film.
I certainly had forgotten about Jude Law as Gigolo Joe.
2 0 ReplyIt wasn't well received because of the changes Spielberg finishing it had on the project.
There's like 3 or 4 points where the movie should never ended but Spielberg doesn't do those types of movies
