ADAM SANDLER Comic, Saturday Night Live *Hit: Adam Yauch of the Beastie Boys coming out dressed as a Swedish guy and rambling on about Spike Jonze at the MTV awards. *The Pits: Rob Schneider leaving Saturday Night Live.
MICHAEL DOUGLAS Actor, Disclosure *Hit: I just loved Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. It was just such a sweet picture. *The Pits: The entire year. It was such a thin year for movies. I can't remember a time when so few pictures jumped out at you.
HEATHER LOCKLEAR Actress, Melrose Place *Hit: Interview With the Vampire. I haven't seen it yet, but every time I see the promos I'm so excited because I've loved Anne Rice's books forever. It might be a lowlight when I see it, but it's starting out high. *The Pits: I walked out on Natural Born Killers. It was too all-over-the-place for me. The violence didn't bother me at all, but it didn't flow enough to keep me there. I didn't get it.
DANNY DEVITO Actor, Junior *Hits: Did you see Fresh? That was good. I'm kinda leaning toward Pulp Fiction (which he executive-produced). *The Pits: Big-budget pictures. We need to use some control.
KATHY NAJIMY Actress, Sister Act 2 *Hit: Roseanne's book. She's honest, she's out there, she's funny, she's not afraid to be heard. I listened to it on a trip. Me and Roseanne alone in the car. *The Pits: Forrest Gump. I expected to be moved out of my skin into another galaxy. You should never listen to the hype; you should just shut your ears and go.
MICHAEL MARONNA Big Pete from The Adventures of Pete and Pete *Hit: Spanking the Monkey. I thought it was a pretty good film. It's pretty accurate, well ... not anatomically correct or anything. The way it was shot was really good. *The Pits: I was watching The Crush at my grandmother's house in Brooklyn at around 2 a.m., and right when they were getting to the good part, the free Cinemax preview ended.
MARGARET CHO Comedian, All-American Girl *Hit: My So-Called Life. To watch it makes me embarrassed because I felt all those feelings. I had the most painful teenage years. To watch it replayed out is frightening. *The Pits: There are so many I can't narrow it down.
D.B. SWEENEY Actor, Roommates *Hit: The Rangers winning the Stanley Cup. *The Pits: The rise of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.
GEENA DAVIS Actress, Speechless *Hit: Did anyone say Forrest Gump? Way to go, Tom! *The Pits: Lack of sleep.
VERONICA WEBB Model *Hit: Ini Kamoze's "Here Comes the Hotstepper." *The Pits: The election.
JASON SCOTT LEE Actor, Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book *Hit: Baraka, a nonverbal movie about man in his world. It's Sufi for "life breath." The images were very original and powerful. *The Pits: When I got chigger bites from rolling around in the jungles of South Carolina filming Jungle Book. I carried them for almost two months after filming.
