Elizabeth Berkley : Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

I dunno about anyone else on here but I think Showgirls, despite its bad reputation and occasionally shotty actin and script, absolutely rocked!
It what a film should have. Sex, Violence, Drama, Action, Intrigue etc.

Elizabeth Berkely rocks people!

Showgirls is the best movie in the world. Kyle Maclalan or what his name is is the best thing in the movie. Good script. :) I love bad movies.

LOL, Oh Good Grief!

Re: Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

'Showgirls' was great in my opinion. But, not because of Elizabeth Berkley, it was great because of Gina Gershon. She is the best thing about that movie. Elizabeth Berkley totally ove 7ec r acted her part as Nomi Malone. Cristal Conners was sooooooooooo much better.

Re: Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

I totally agree. Gina was, in my opinion, the highlight of the movie. I think CRISTAL should have pushed NOMI down the stairs! lol. Too bad she had to play such a bitch though. I like Gina better when she's sweeter. :)

Re: Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

Yup, Cristal shoud have pushed Nomi down the stairs lol. Yeah, I like Gina when her charecter is sweet too, but she does play such a great bitch.

Re: Who Thinks it STINKS!



I agree. its so embaressing watching the actors say their lines and act. i feel bad for the director and the wole film. hehe sorry elizabeth but it was rotten hehe.

Re: Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

Awesome!

I love Elizabeth.

I love Showgirls!

Granted it can be a little trashy but if you embrace that, than I think alot more people might like it.

I love it the more I watch it.
I don't like the fact that Elizabeth got treated so badly after Showgirls came out. I think she was really good in it.

It was good to read that Goldie Horne stood up for her :)


Fantastic that she will be in The L Word.

I would rate Showgirls a 20 on a scale of 1-10

Re: Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

I love Showgirls. I don't think it is as bad as people say. It's not the worst thing to come out of Hollywood.

Re: Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

Re: Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

I think it was terrible, disgustingly terrible. Not so-terrible-it's-actually-good terrible, but plain terrible. LOL. The acting was poor, the script was NOTHING and the overrall movie cheap and unclassy. It's juts a softcore porn movie, basically, that's the only reason boys like it. For those who haven't seen this movie - DON'T.

"Total F!!king Silence! Two Can Play At That Game!"- Steve Buscemi (Fargo) BIGGEST FAN
"Everyone takes a beating.. Even the mailman" - Ray Liotta (Goodfellas)
"Walk Down The Right Back Alley In Sin City.. And You Can Find Anything.." - Mickey Rourke (Marv, Sin City)

Re: Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

in the beginning the acted was too much but it cooled down later in the film. it is a great movie.

"Ninja kick the damn rabbit!"

Re: Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

I do not believe there can be sane people who would judge this movie well...

Re: Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

showgirls is one of my favorite bad movies.
It was never ment to be a cult film.
Verhoeven had the same screenplay writer he used in Basic Instinct and swept the razzies academy (I think it still holds the record).
What's cool is that Verhoeven showed up at the ceremony to receive his award.

Happy birthday Elizabeth

badgers? badgers!? WE DON'T NEED NO STINKIN' BADGERS!!!

Re: Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

The critics were harder on it than they are on tons of worse movies because I think the nudity and sex put them off. Lots of them even said that the sex in the movie wasn't erotic, which is just silly.

Re: Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

This is a great film, for what it is. Some say that Elizabeth Berkely over-acted. A movie like this requires larger than life acting. Put this one down as a classic along with Road House.

Re: Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

i think it's a brilliant movie.. it may not be the best plot.. but i do LOVE Elizabeth Berkley!

i even find the nudity hot, and i'm GAY!

how weird is it for me to be such a fan of this movie?? lol!

Re: Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

The movie was horrbile but it is strangley very watchable. Its horrendous with it's cheesy dialogue and over the top acting, but you can't take your eyes off it.
I usually think Elizabeth Burkley is very pretty but i didn't like the way she looked here. I don't know her lips seem a little enlarged here.

Re: Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

I agree. It was cheesy and over the top but there was great dancing and I think Elizabeth did an amazing job. Her acting chops do shine a lot in this film. It's like a lava lamp. You can't really take your eyes off it.

Re: Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

Okay, that's sad! This movie tries to be Flashdance and failsb miserably. It doesn't even have a good soundtrack to stand up for.

Re: Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

WHAT!!!!! LOL!!!!

Re: Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

SHOWGIRLS is one of my favourite movies ever, i have it on DVD. I was like 13 when this movie came out and I remember that it was made fun of and trashed so severely. I feel this was probably because of the excessive nudity and sex which I feel did need to be in the movie as it was portraying strippers and showgirls. This is such an entertaining and watchable film despite the cheesy dialogue but it is also quite a dark film in some aspects, one thing that SHOWGIRLS has that is very different to most films is that it does not have a happy ending, Elizabeth Berkleys character ends up with no job, no boyfirend, no place to live and is basically back at sqaure one, her friend Molly ends up brutally raped and bashed by a rockstar she idolised, the black dancer dude ends up with a pregnant girlfriend he does not love and has to work in a grocery store for the rest of his life and Gina Gershon ends up with a broken hip after been pushed down a flight of metal stairs and a defunct career ,like all Verhoeven films the sex and violence are excessive and there doesn't seem to be a scene here that doesn't involve nudity. I think SHOWGIRLS tries to show the ugliness behind the beauty that the audience sees. Even though this film was trashed people still remember it and know it even if it is for being a bad movie it is better than not being remembered at all.

Re: Who Thinks Showgirls Rocks?

I think showgirls rock and so does, carmen electra( or so I read).
I don't understand the bad publicity. I watch it everytime it comes on cable.

I think Showgirls rocks! Why does a movie have to get a bad rep because it is about nudity?
