Cool As Ice w/ Vanilla Ice

post #1 of 18
Thread Starter 
Vanilla Ice's PURPLE RAIN. There's even a part where his girlfriend's in danger, so he rides up on a motorbike and yells "Get on!", and she hesitates, so he yells louder "GET ON!!!"

All ironic "Vanilla Ice is LOL" aside, I think Vanilla Ice is a pretty good dancer. He's fast and precise, and that's all I ask.

But his acting is just UGH.

Seducing Girls the Vanilla Ice Way:

1) ride a motorbike in front of her horse, spooking it and causing her to fall off.

2) steal her organiser.

She will be yours in no time!

Anyway, this movie is fucking atrocious.

Yeah but he'd lick his mother's asshole for a million dollars.

So, like, he's got that going for him.

The movie is indeed atrocious, but it has the greatest tagline ever: "When a girl has a heart of stone, there's only one way to melt it. Just add Ice."

Melt stone... with ice? Fucking genius.

Is Paul McCartney from New Zealand?

This was on NZ tv just last night.

And yes, it's one of the best worst movies I've ever seen.

Well, sorry you're going to miss out on this, but LA Chewers will have the chance to see it on the big screen...at the New Beverly, January 26th. Midnight showing. (Well, 11:45 PM, but it's a midnight showing in principle.)

Yes. Only in this backwards shithole is Cool As Ice shown as a primetime movie event.

My favourite part was when a child was kidnapped and forced to record a ransom tape. "I'm unharmed, but if you want to see me alive again, etc etc", and Vanilla Ice pinpointed the child's location by identifying background noise on the tape. He's like Batman.

Yes you do. If only to see the great Rick Rubin call someone a fag.

That was a jolt to me and my friend.

I always preferred Tougher Than Leather, not only does it star Run D.M.C. it also had the Beastie Boys and Rick Rubin.

Steven Spielberg's Academy Award winning DOP Janusz Kaminski shot this film. This scene says it all...

Vanilla Ice was also in The New Guy, so he's 3 for 3.

Honestly...just brings back the memories of my older sister going fucking nuts over this film (i.e. she was huge into Ice like most teenage girls of the early 90s!)

I Saw This In Theaters....

I remember as a kid seeing this with my Dad in theaters. I also saw TMNT 2 : Secret of the Ooze on the big screen, but I was a turtle obsessed kid, so I don't consider it as big a deal.

I've seen Plan 9 from Outer Space about a dozen times, but will never, ever, sacrifice 90 minutes of my life for a Vanilla Ice movie. My standards for film might be on life support, but they still have a pulse ... however faint.

Alright so thanks to Netflix instant streaming I finally saw this. Thank you so much god. It's great because it almost seems like this is a Tyler Perry movie but at the last minute a studio exec got nervous and threw in a white guy. Seriously every white person in the movie is either a bumbling idiot, nerdy or a violent asshole. Except of course Vanilla Ice and his girl. But wait her little brother worships him for....some reason.

 

The boyfriend who has to be an asshole so Ice can steal her away. Problem is that Ice comes off like the bigger asshole because the guy doesn't really do anything wrong until he smashes the bike. Up until that point he actually seems alright. Meanwhile how does Ice introduce himself? He flirts with her by knocking her off a horse. Just ask Chris Reeves, it's hilarious. He steals her book. He publicly grinds all over her in front of everybody humiliating her boyfriend(who hasn't done anything wrong up to this point). And earlier within 2 seconds of seeing her agian with her boyfriend utters his famous line "drop the zero and get with the hero". Ohh and after defeating her ex and like 4 of his friends in hand to hand combat he uses the guys car as a ramp for his motor cycle. The movie basically asks you to hate him for driving a nice car. Ohh wait I guess he does complain about not having sex with her after forgiving her for dry humping Ice......so I guess he deserves it right?

 

Oh and I almost forgot the most racist part (ya know besides Ice's entire act). The whole premise rests on the fact that Ice hangs around with 3 black friends.One of their bikes break down and they are stuck in the town for a couple days waiting for it to get fixed. During this time Ice is having an adventure fighting preppy ex's, gangsters and seducing rich girls. What are his friends doing? Having thier own adventure perhaps? Nope everytime we cut back to them for a second that are watching tv, goofing off , or just dancing by themselves never really leaving the house. However they do back Ice up when he break into a mega rap at the local spot. All in all this might be up there with Trolls 2. I hear people talking about Road house and Purple Rain but for me this si top of the heap. Because unlike Troll 2 this had a larger budget. To me bigger budget bad is ALWAYS better because the idea that someone saw that script and said great great heres millions to make it is hilarious.

 I clearly remember the first time I heard Ice Ice Baby. I had MTV on, and my back was to the TV. I heard the bass line from Under Pressure. As a huge Queen fan I turned around, and saw the goofiest mother fucker I have ever seen. It didn't help the song was the worst thing I've ever heard. I've fated Ice ever since.
