I've only ever seen Zahn in Treme, but he was decent throughout that.

His character in Treme is completely insufferable for the majority of the show, but I suppose that's kind of the point too.

I unironically love this movie. It's also the most tolerable version of "wacky" Jack Black because he plays an idiot man-child instead of the quirky hero.

They are good but Steve Zahn is better than both of them by a lot.

Yep. It's a really, really stupid comedy that also doesn't make me feel embarrassed to be in the same room when it's playing and that's rare.

He's perfectly cast in Shattered Glass. Then again everyone in that movie is. It's one of the few journalism movies where I don't feel like I'm watching actors try to be normal people (which is one of my few, if only issues with All the President's Men).

I think it's because there's no cynicism to its stupidity and instead it comes off really sincere. It's not like "haha, look at how dumb we are being laugh at us" like most dumb comedies. It also has some of the best modern slapstick humor and everyone feels like they're having a genuinely fun time making it.

Hey, I like Steve Zahn. Have for a long time. But I've never seen Zahn do something like Chandler's scenes in The Spectacular Now - not even close.

If I was a casting director I'd cast Chandler and Livingston as brother cops chasing a loose cannon father son duo played by Peter Gallagher and Matthew Fox. The twist... they are all related! :haw:

Poster for Cooties



Plot description:
A mysterious virus hits an isolated elementary school, transforming the kids into a feral swarm of mass savages. An unlikely hero (Elijah Wood) must lead a motley band of teachers in the fight of their lives.

Even though it's incredibly minimalist- it really works, and the font/style perfect encapsulates 70s/80s horror.

Yeah, the title font is the Poltergeist font, isn't it?

Elijah Wood is just doing all these horror/thriller movies now. And he's joined with Rainn Wilson and Hurley?!

80's horror films had the greatest taglines.



Edit: Wait, that's a new movie? Well then they really got the aesthetic down. That's perfect.

Not Poltergeist, though it does remind me of something very specific. I wanted to say Slugs, but that's a different look.

I actually think this is a nice subversion of The 40-Year-Old Virgin's poster template. Unlike those movies, we have a person whose actions have serious and real consequences. You get the idea we're in for two hours of pathological lying and/or mental gymnastics. But there's still enough mystery to why he's smiling that we'll have to see it to find out.

Seriously as a big fan of The Fog of War, I'm going to check this movie out.

Also, here's a much larger, but cropped, version of Rummy's poo poo-eating grin. :gonk:

Two random posters from me today. I can't speak for the quality of the film, but this poster for Hard Boiled Sweets is really good in my opinion, for a character grid poster. It looks sleek.
