Poll of the Day > What character do you think of: (Day 17) Jack Nicholson

Topic List	Page List: 1
impatientperson 09/12/17 3:11:53 AM #1:	What character comes to mind when you think of Jack Nicholson? His IMDB page: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000197/ I... I don't think I've seen a single movie with Jack Nicholson... I've seen clips of a couple but I've not actually watched one movie on that list. I probably should see some of them like the Shining or the Departed at some point. Also Jack Nicholson is 80 and hasn't been in a movie for 7 years. He's older than I thought. As far as a character I guess I'd have to go with Jack from the Shining (Wait if his name is Jack why does he say "Here's Johnny"?). Also IMDB trivia is dumb: "Is the only actor to ever play the Devil, the Joker, and a werewolf." Any nominations going forward would be cool. I have a big list of 'em now but if you suggest someone on there they can move up the rankings and come sooner. Also, if you have any input on how to improve the topic, let me know. Previous days (If you wanna participate): Day 8: Evan Peters Day 9: Will Smith Day 10: Robin Williams Day 11: Adam Sandler Day 12: Scarlett Johansson Day 13: Chloë Grace Moretz Day 14: Patrick Stewart Day 15:Leonardo DiCaprio Day 16: Jim Carrey >Day 17: Jack Nicholson Should I try to fit directors into these topics too? Like maybe every 10 (starting at 20 I guess) do a 'What movie do you think of?'. There are plenty of directors (like Scorsese, Burton, Spielberg) that have a good number of notable films behind them. I dunno, just a thought. --- This user is awesome!: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/user.php?board=804141&topic=12351915135 <cite>impatientperson posted [p:886449459] in What chara...

Zeus 09/12/17 3:39:05 PM #19:	Kind of a hard one. I guess Jessep from a Few Good Men but only because Al Pacino's Scent of a Woman pops up in my mind at the same time. Otherwise, I associate Nicholson with his gruffer, slightly unhinged roles such as the Joker, the author from As Good as It Gets, and to a lesser extent McMurphy from One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Ironically, one of my all-time favorite Jack Nicholson moments is from As Good as It Gets which is one of my least-favorite Nicholson movies (since it does a terrible job of portraying OCD and does so in a comical manner, which I also never liked about Monk) --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash <cite>Zeus posted [p:886476444] in What chara...
