And the best Dennis Hopper movie is…
June 8, 2010
APOCALYPSE NOW!
Despite being a late entry in the game, folks, we have ourselves a winner. Still awfully confused as to how Frank Booth didn’t run away with it, but since Dennis was the man and I doubt that we’ll ever have another lunatic like him to entertain us the way he did, I am very cool with that.
We miss ya’ already, brother.
RESULTS
– Blue Velvet: 13 votes (Pabst Blue Ribbon should have written him a check for this one)

Everyone, give it up for Dennis.

Cut The Crap Movie Reviews 
A likely winner and a great film. I can’t think of a more memorable performance than his turn in Blue Velvet, but I do struggle to think of a more memorable film than Apocalypse Now.
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
Could there really be any other? Even though his role is small, it’s key to the last act and very memorable.
He has a key role at the end of a very powerful film. Glad to see others voted for this performance as well.
No love for Ewan MacGregor in the poll for this week? Ouch…
bloated overrated nonsense.
does he say ‘Pop quiz hot shot.’ in it?
no.
this Jedi poll is hard. makes you realise that all jedi are just, well, dicks.
Good point, except for Old Ben, he seemed like a good dude.
I already voted, but if I could do it again, I would totally go with Other, and vote for Kyle Katarn! Anyone know who that is?
My best friend is the biggest Star Wars fanboy you’ll ever meet, oh yes, I know who Kyle Katarn is, and SW fanboys love Kyle Katarn. Would have been a very cool vote.
Pabst blue ribbon… I completely forgot about that…
Best line of the movie, arguably of Hopper’s career.
Huh. I would have thought “Easy Rider” would have killed the competition. That would have been my vote. But you never can tell what the people want, I guess.
