"Get Shorty/Be Cool"

What's this about? I was going to watch Get Shorty on Wednesday but the football was on so I missed the first hour and then couldn't be bothered to watch. Be Cool is supposed to be some sort of sequel, right? Only, I've got some mates who want to go see this today. Is it going to be balls? It's got Vince Vaughn. He's good. It's got Travolta. He's not. So make my mind up for me, people.

Get Shorty was superb, seen it endless times and still warrants quoting during co-op video game moments.

"No no no, &*%$ you &%$^ball"
"He got no respect for me"
etc

Be Cool I'm looking forward to a lot, the trailer was good fun.
Even if Travolta's massive head increases in mass everyday

Travolta hasn't made a good movie since Get Shorty, Pulp Fiction before that. I'm going to see this because of Vince Vaughn being a music producer that thinks he's black.

"Twinkle twinkle baby!"

And yes, apparently The Rock is very good in it too, perish the thought.

Isn't The Rock a gay guy?

Get Shorty was rather good I thought, John Travolta gave a staggeringly good performance. I've heard mixed feelings on Be Cool. Personally I think it looks ok and it has an excellent cast.

I haven't seen either but I'm pretty sure it involves Travolta being some kind of movie executive in Get Shorty then turning to the music industry in Be Cool. Not sure what really happens though apart from he dances with Uma Thurman.

I always thought that Get Shorty was about a group of gangsters who were chasing after Danny Devito.

I wouldn't expect to much.
