[brickhardmeat]

Who do you consider Ultra Cool?

These guys are my top 3....
Andy Warhol
Marlon Brando
Elvis

:smile:

obviously a slow day at work

[nqd]

hahh same here...thats why ive been playing that damn game that black yaris started...haha

[brickhardmeat]

Johnny Depp has serious cool factor as far as someone who is among the living. All of the really cool people are dead.

[tk-421]

In no particular order: Albert Einstein, Hunter S. Thompson, Nicola Tesla, Kevin Spacey, Mahatma Gandhi... and me, of course.:biggrin:

[Meteorite Man]

How come no one has mentioned Brick yet?

Well, I'm not -that- self absorbed. I thought this topic may interest people a little more than it did but apparently I was wrong. So far only one real response. Well, will see.

[sherryberry]

i came to this thread expecting everyone to say how cool they are.. darn.. guess not.

haha, guess the title was misleading, oh well

[blacksan]

I respect anyone that busts there ass to accomplish amazing things in the short time we have on this earth. Yes, that also means puds I don't necessarily like.

[brickhardmeat]

I guess "cool factor" means very different things to different people. Very few people do I find really ultra cool. To me you have it or you don't.

I guess you mean attitude? To me cool is someone that takes on all the responsibility that life has and still finds time to treat others as they deserve. I personally would give everything to assure that no child ever suffers abuse again and can see a future worth living.

Yeah, I just mean any interview with Andy Warhol, Johnny Depp in Crybaby and in all the interviews I've ever seen him do, Maroln Brando in the Wild One and other antics throughout his life earn him cool with me, and of course Elvis was and still is just plain fucking cool.

Anyone you think is cool is totally subjective but these people are the kings of cool to me.:smoking:

I like how Andy always answered questions with " I don't know."

I kind of thought you would say something like...

Wayne Newton
Dale Earnhardt Sr.
and Mr. T

shows how well I know you:laugh:

Dude, I am Native American & German. My vibe might be spiritual, or seizure of power oriented. :biggrin: It all depends on my zen cycle.:smoking:

I am Portuguese and German.

[blacksan]

Dam, that is exotic! Is your mom, or dad German?

[joey1320]

i think Che Guevara is cool. not because of "communism", which in reality is not what he was about, but for the status he achieved while trying to help people all over the world liberate themselves from oppresion.

i think Julio Iglesias was cool. he was the Frank Sinatra of the spanish world, man he could make the panties drop like crazy.

and then Carlito Brigante from the 'carlitos way/after hours" book, not the movie. he knew what cool was about. he was always "fresh" driving his white Lincoln down the South Bronx...

[brickhardmeat]

Dad's side German and don't know how clean their blood was but his Dad owned the cargo airline that was the death of Lynard Skynard or so the story goes. I met him once when I was 19.

Mom's side Portuguese her parents came over on a boat during or shortly after World War 2 and settled in New Jersey. She's got a major rap sheet. She was pregnant with me in Lou Sterrett jail and I met her when I was about 20 or so and talk with her from time to time.

Parents met in college she was posing as a nude model in one of his art classes. He now does advertising stuff for McDonald's. They don't speak.

I got stories.:tongue:

Eric Clapton.

[brickhardmeat]

Back to the original thread topic - Chip Foose, James Dean, Frank Black, Nicholas Cage...Ultra Cool People!

fuck yes! Cage is way up there

I liked him in Wild At Heart and Peggy Sue Got Married most

Wild At Heart is in my all time favorite movies too

[bugnuts]

Hell Cage was even cool in his short cameo on Fast Times!

[Typer73]

Nicholas Cage definitely, John Lennon, & an oldie-but-goodie Cary Grant.

[bugnuts]

Let's not forget the late Mitch Hedberg:smoking:

[Meteorite Man]

Steve McQueen....Let's remake Bullitt. Sweet sseing a Yaris cranking through the streets of San Fran....

+1 on the Johnny Depp.

Also, I'm a big fan of George Michael. Sure, he's gay now, but the dude had so many women he just got bored. Gotta' respect that! :bow:

And Prince. Dude has an unbelievable vocal range, plays over 30 different instruments, and is probably the horniest little bastard on the planet. Couldn't ask for a more entertaining combination! :laugh:

Wait a sec... why are all my heroes so effeminate? Interesting....... :iono:

[ChinoCharles]

C'mon, where are the people from the forums? Chris, Thomas and Rob all blazed this trail! Give them some props!

As far as the notables... Barack Obama, Dustin Kensrue, Bill Gates... I could go on and on.

[nsmitchell]

Here are some of my favorites that I consider cool from movies and music, since I've never actually met any of them.

Steve McQueen(Papillion), Clint Eastwood(Dirty Harry) and Charles Bronson(Death Wish)!
Jimi Hendrix, Robert Plant, Brian Ferry (Roxy Music - dated a lot of hotties)
David Byrne from Talking Heads as well.

But the coolest of all wuld have to be Dennis Hopper in Blue Velvet! hehe "Mommy... baby wants to fuck!" "Heineken! Fuck that shit! PABST BLUE RIBBON!"

BLue Velvet is one screwed up, but awesomely cool movie! :headbang:

[brickhardmeat]

Brian Ferry kicks ass

[nsmitchell]

Brian Ferry kicks ass
Avalon is one of the coolest/smoothest albums ever IMHO. Along with Steely Dan's Gaucho.

And add David Bowie to that list.
John Waters too!

[nqd]

I met John waters, I have his autograph on a dollar bill I had in my pocket that night back in 1999 I think it was. Still have it in a little frame. I don't just think John Waters is cool I worship him.

You have a good point sherryberry. The guys have a "hottie du jour" thread, but those of us who wanna look at hot guys got nuthin! :laugh:

[brickhardmeat]

Billy Name, Micheal Alig, James St. James, Amanda Lepore, Lady Bunny, Astro Erle, and various club kids in the early middle 90's, Kate Pierson (B-52's), and Isaac Mizrahi, oh an Kevin Von Erich

I'm sure I'm forgetting someone.

Wow, quite a list!

I love John Waters movies. Pink Flamingos, Female Trouble...

And speaking of Andy Warhol, did anyone ever see his movie 'Bad'? That is one sick but hilarious movie. One of my favs but I cant find it anywhere. The opening line is "Tab, Tab, Tab! Why does it always have to be Tab?" It's a mother making her son drink Tab. hehe Some very disturbing stuff in this movie, but very cool too.

That sounds like Trash to me but it has been a while since I've seen that one. Don't recall Bad.I like Trash, Heat, Flesh, Chelsea Girls, Women in Revolt

of course these were really done by Paul


Chelsea Girls, and Lonesome Cowboys yet to see in their entirety

[YarisTom73]

My two cents' worth: HHDL (His Holiness the Dalai Lama) and my personal crush, the Mythbusters' Carrie Byron (the kinda-gothic redheaded one). She's too hot, IMO..:biggrin:

[nsmitchell]

Andy Warhol's BAD http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075679/ I can't find the DVD though.

Carrie Byron definately makes that show incredibly watchable!

Also I can't believe I forgot the number one coolest person in the world right now! Stephen Colbert! WOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOO! and Emo Phillips! as in "Have some coleslaw Emo."

maybe not released on dvd, jed johnson was the director so that's why I hadn't found it, looks like he did some other work with andy in the other films

I'll have to check it out. Too bad I tossed my VCR I could probably find a copy of it on tape. Same problem with Stranger Than Paradise and Night on Earth by Jarmusch, not released on DVD yet:cry:
