American History X
 

I watched this today and absolutely loved it.
"Hate is baggage. Life's too short to be pissed off all the time. It's just not worth it."
Poor Danny... :(

Could Edward Norton be anymore sexy in this movie???

Well beside the ridiculous swastika tattoo...

I saw it a while ago.
Things I remember: some guy getting his face smashed in a curb, some guy getting raped in prison, and the kid getting shot in the head.
I watched it late at night and I wasn't really paying attention, so I can't say how good it was, but I can say that I enjoyed it.

this is a good movie, however the director wanted to make it into an allan smithee film because the studio let edward norton into reedit the film and he made it into an edward norton film. it is still a good film though, if you like that you should check out a film called romper stomper

romper stomper is prob better. Just cuzz.

What's Romper Stomper about?

nomadicfollower,
All those scenes were so brutal to watch :( Especially the one with the curb, it make my teeth hurt haha.

here is a little imformation, it is an independent australian film covering the same topics but it is much more grittier and less glossy. it stars russell crowe before he was an international star. it is about gang warfare in melbourne in the late 70s and early 80s raging between skinheads and vietnamese.

Sounds good :)
I'll look into watching it...

I saw that movie a few years back, it was ok, it has a cult following of retards in my school that get together and curbstomp each other.

The curbstomp about makes me sick. I can hardley watch it.

Like I said before.........retards!

I wasn't too into that movie.

I watched this two days ago. It influenced my curbstomp thread. I loved it.

I knew I had seen curbstomp some where on this board before. So what is a curbstomp?

Watch the video. Basically, someone sits their top teeth on the curb and someone else stomps their fucking skull in.

gross

There's a curbstomp thread?!?!
I need to pay more attention to things.

Hahah you got it!

It sounds pretty repulsive. I'd hate to see that...
I hope no one actually does this.

hell of a movie. I can't stand the rape scene pretty fucked up stuff then for him to have to @ the end be asked to rejoin the skin & have his brother killed, harsh. I must agree the story behind prison is great when he has to interact with a member of the opposite race or when he denies the skins & the other races take notice in the cafeteria, pretty much showing that he's vonerable & no longer protected. I also appreciate the cinematography in this how the color & black & whit is mixed for the scenes of the past. It's funny I was just thinking about this film today. I belive their is much to learn from this film!!!

Hahah half way through the movie today i said to my friend "had it always been in black and white?" I never notice when the colour switches on and off haha.
