I disagree with that. Even if he could've physically fit on the furniture floating, that doesn't mean it would've stayed buoyant. They likely both die if he gets on it.





I'm in the same boat as this.

I think they both die if he gets on. He briefly tries at first an it wobbles and I think he knew right away it wasn't going to work. Although it was always frustrating she says "I'll never let go Jack" and then immediately lets go. I mean I wouldn't have wanted to hold onto a dead body until I was rescued either, but I don't think I could let someone sink to the bottom of the ocean.

Looks like we completely overlooked Helen Hunt's character in Castaway.

Not sure what it says about me that I wouldn’t have known who 2 of the 4 were without the info (Umbridge and Wetmore). And I haven’t seen Cuckoo’s Nest in 25 years or more.

Exactly. She still sucks.

I think she more meant that she'd never let go of him in her heart/never forget him. I don't think she meant it literally. But I've only seen the movie once about 10-12 years ago so my memory is a little hazy.

That’s got to be a big rock you’re living under. Harry Potter and The Green Mile didn’t just come out last week. The books/movies are 25+ years old.

It was obviously an ending to show she was never about the money which is why she left Billy Zane (he's a cool guy - Zoolander reference) but he actually is a really cool guy, met him once.

But if she really was about true love....move the frick over!

She's a selfish, renegade princess in her own narcissistic eyes. I don't know why they wrote her so poorly.

Dolores & Ratched...... Ratched should win the whole thing but I'm afraid most haven't seen the movie.

I mean, Harry Potter. It's just fantasy. Nurse Ratched was based on a real person... As Ken Kesey wrote the Novel:

Working the night shift at the Menlo Park Veterans' Hospital. There, Kesey often spent time talking to the patients, sometimes under the influence of the hallucinogenic drugs he had volunteered to experiment with. He did not believe these patients were insane, but rather that society had pushed them out because they did not fit conventional ideas of how people were supposed to act and behave.

The movie won the "Big Five" Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Actor (Jack Nicholson), Best Actress (Louise Fletcher), Best Director (Forman) and Best Adapted Screenplay.

I feel like a lot of people probably didn't see One Flew as the first time I saw this thread Ratched immediately came to mind. Commodus is a great option though, but I'm surprised how easily he's winning.
