John Cusack screening High Fidelity in Waukee

[Nothingman]

Just found the Minneapolis event and the range is $91-277 for that one. Note that in Minnesota they are required to list all-in pricing so that is including all fees.

From my experience, Vibrant listed prices include everything.

One Crazy Summer is one of my favorites…anyone?

I don't know about favorite, but it's entertaining. Interesting cast. Cusack, Bobcat, 4th tier Murray brother, Booger, pledge pin guy from Animal House, and a real young Demi Moore.

 

[Gonzo]

Eight Men Out
Being John Malkovich
Better Off Dead
Say Anything
Gross Pointe Blank

I can't include his fairly insignificant roles in Sixteen Candles and The Thin Red Line.

I forgot about Malkovich. Put that in there with mine as well, classic.

I would have thought High Fidelity was older than 2000 release year.

 

[KCClone1]

what, no 1408 fans in here

I’m with you. It’s one of the most underrated horror movies of all time.

 

[mapnerd]

Damn 1408 is creepy. But give me Lane and that French gal every damn day.

 

[Joe4Cy]

I have heard that, too

Same. I've read that he hates having Better Off Dead quoted to him, which is a shame 'cause it's such a quotable movie.

Hmmm... doesn't seem to jive with someone who would show up in Waukee Iowa to do a screening and Q&A session for a 25 year old movie. Maybe he's mellowing in his old age.

 

[JohnPrineforCy]

High Fidelity is a Top 5 movie for me. I might have to drive to Des Moines for this.

Yeah, Mrs. Velo and I still say, "I want my two dollars!" all the time.

 

[Big Daddy Kang]

Pretty cool deal. Here's how I'd rank my favorite Cusack films:

1. Say Anything
2. Better Off Dead
3. The Grifters
4. Eight Men Out

The Grifters is an underappreciated classic.

The real question is - is there a bad John Cusak movie?

The Bag Man is terrible.

 

[Big Daddy Kang]

The Bag Man is terrible.

2012 is also terrible.

I would love to know how he picked that movie for central Iowa, and why he's coming to Iowa at all, but it's pretty cool. I think Grosse Pointe Blank is my favorite John Cusack film, but High Fidelity is up there.

Actor John Cusack heads to the Des Moines metro to screen 'High Fidelity.' How to get tickets:

John Cusack starred in "High Fidelity," the 2000 rom-com. He visits the Des Moines metro this summer to screen the film and talk to fans.

Right On! Love that movie and John Cusack.

Eight Men Out
Being John Malkovich
Better Off Dead
Say Anything
Gross Pointe Blank

Love & Mercy is worth a watch.

He plays the older version of Brian Wilson.

I went to it in theater during my brief "movie pass" bonanza.

 

[HFCS]

I need to watch something like Eight Men Out as an adult. I only saw it as a kid and it's certainly not the popcorn type that Field of Dreams is but is probably a really good actual film.

It's on the Tubi app.

I did a recent sports movie marathon playing tons of them in the background, they had like 25 of the top 50 sports movies on there for free.

The real question is - is there a bad John Cusak movie?

I honestly just never bought him as a science fiction epic/action movie type, never liked 2012 or Con-Air much. Not my thing.

I forgot about Malkovich. Put that in there with mine as well, classic.

Cusack doesn't get to "steal the spotlight" in many scenes in BJM, but his grasp of the character is outstanding throughout.
