Apostrophes to indicate plurality where the meaning would otherwise be lost (e.g. after acronyms) are acceptable.

Then Leonardo Dicaprio and Matt Damon both got fat and started playing dad roles... what happened... :reject:



Well, to be fair, Matt Damon never looked like that except for The Talented Mr Ripley. He lost 30 pounds for that role, if I remember correctly, by eating nothing but one chicken breast a day and exercising a lot. And he purposely gained weight for The Informant.

And he's 42 now.

Get the scientists working on the tube technology, immediately.
While I thought Matt Damon did a fine job in The Informant and it's a good movie he's never really lost all the weight he gained for that role and is still a little chubby. He needs to do another action movie to get trim again. Maybe take some of the stuff Sly's on.

It's actually both. Everyone but Cage knew it was a movie. Cage just rolled with it. Kinda how Arnold Schwarzenegger thought all his movies were real

The Blues Brothers rivals only Muppet movies in the amount of cameos packed in through the run time, and it's absolutely fantastic. :allears:

The amount of spit and polish needed to make Disney not come across as one of the more nastiest bastards on the planet would probably kill a writer.

Well, yeah. It'd be neat to see them try and do that though. Or just roll with it and say "He was human."

hahaha, that'd never happen.

Yeah, Disney can be comically aggressive as a company in denying the darkness inherent in humanity unless there's a specific comeuppance or redemption involved. When there is none and life proves itself the indifferent judge of character and deed that it is, Disney would rather avoid any profit potential at all than acknowledge it.

You're absolutely right. These posters were printed up several months into the films run when MGM realized the movie was big with young people people who had easy access to LSD.

When I got 2001 on bluray I was really excited and told my dad about it. He then told me about how him and his buddies went to see it twice, once after smoking a bunch of weed and then again the next day on acid. He's done a bunch of cool poo poo, but that's probably the thing I'm most jealous about.


I had a chance to see 2001 on the big screen a couple years ago, but it was when I was away at school and I couldn't find anyone to go with or, most importantly, pitch in gas money.

As bad as the 2nd Harold and Kumar movie was and as forgettable as the 3rd was, I hope they make another one and use the IV: 20 subtitle

God, I hope this gets made. The Harold & Kumar movies aren't spectacular but they're enjoyable enough, and a ridiculous title like this would be totally fitting of the fourth one.

I really like that poster, but there's something about making the monolith white that just doesn't work. Everything else about it is spot on, and I'm not sure how things could be changed around to accomodate a black font color to suit the monolith...but it stands out in a bad way.
