Dice mentions to Billie that one of his favorites is Quincy Jones, citing his Grammys and Oscars. This scene takes place in 1983. To that point, Jones had been nominated for seven Academy Awards, but had never won one. And the only award from the Academy that he has ever won to this day was the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award which he received in 1994.

Was it that bad? Really?

Okay, for the record, this was a lousy film. But did it deserve the sort of bombastic universal panning it received? It was not nearly in the league of such absolute bombs as Gigli, Black Dog or anything with Rutger Hauer. It was a formulaic, wish-fulfillment movie worthy of being a Lifetime Special or an ABC Movie of the Week. It sucked, but it wasn't the sort of movie that scars one for life. After all the jokes and hype I was disappointed when I saw this movie on cable this weekend. I was expecting Ishtar. To me, this points up a problem with how our culture reviews movies. Every so often critics, (who are cynical bastards anyway) seem to pick out a movie to practice witty cruelty upon as a sort of mental exercise. Poor Glitter, and poor Mariah, who had a nervous breakdown over how this movie was received by the critical establishment!
