Franchescanado posted:That's awesome. I saw it in theaters, but no Birbigs or Q&A. Really pleasant experience, nonetheless. Everyone's performances were great, especially Gillian Jacobs. Wish Kate Micucci had gotten more opportunity other than "Quiet Nerdy Cartoon Girl". Some jackass wasted the last question on "What advice would you give to a newlywed?" so I guess that stands out. Other than that, not much. He looked pretty tired, I think Seattle was one of the last stops on his tour.

Jean Claude van Johnson. You have no Idea what I'm talking about but the name sounds familiar to you. You remember maybe JCD or it comes an Expendable movie in your mind ? Wrong. Start watching Jean Claude van Johnson in the first scene you will switch it off or rolling on the floor laughing, the next half hour. "I have a gift I'm the master of the splits" I'm still rolling, this poo poo is sooo funny. And for all of you not native english speaking watch it in english really!

Nah, Ahmet's only done, like, three albums in the 90's, none of which are on spotify or anything. It may be better quality than Dweezil's but I've never really listened to Ahmet.

Yeah I think it did get picked up. I really loved JCVJ and I thought I'd be let down by it. The other one I wanted to see picked up was that "So Dark/So Pretty" vampire show. I liked that the vampire himself was just a regular-looking guy, and not some ultra-hot dude being all romance novel-ish. I ought to have expected Van Johnson to be pretty good because JCVD was also great. edit: yup, picked up as a series last September.

Franchescanado posted:Also Don't Think Twice is on Netflix. If you have any interest in a group of sad improv comedians trying to come to terms with their failures in the wake of a member becoming successful, give it a shot, it's a wonderful movie. Written and directed by Mike Birbiglia. Great cast with fun cameos, too. The first three or so minutes of this where the group gets loose were excruciatingly precious and then when they were on stage things got even worse. Probably the fastest I've ever bailed on a movie.

I get it - I couldn't be friends with anyone in that movie due to the constantly doing a bit thing they do.

No just first episode 😨 I really hope we can "soon" see more of the show. Ridley Scott is listet as executive producer in the credits with his production company scott free Thank you human tornada for the tipp. I made it on my list  War Machine was a disappointment for me. The whole time I was thinking they can't decide if they want make comedy or realistic. But brad pitt made a realy good job as general. If they wer going the full way as comedy it could be a great movie. Or maybe it is comedy? I should give the movie a seconde chance. XenJ fucked around with this message at 01:08 on Jun 7, 2017 |

Today I did a double feature of The Smartest Guys in the Room and Inside Job, which was probably a mistake, from a heart health point of view. They've both been on netflix for a while, but I wanted to mention them anyway. I look forward to whatever financial calamity will happen next that will let us complete the trilogy.

Maybe something on Citizens United? Does that count as a financial calamity? Or whatever the oil barons are doing right now. Maybe that'll take 5 or 10 years for something to happen then also for the documentary to get made and released. edit: Gasland!

If they wer going the full way as comedy it could be a great movie. Or maybe it is comedy? I've seen a lot of folks posting online about how excited they were to see this comedy, and I think a lot of folks may end up being upset or disappointed, thinking that an exposé about a dysfunctional US military commander is hilarious despite it being truly stupid and horrible through and through (also the author died in Afghanistan in 2013, iirc.) Personally I don't think it's a comedy at all however, if it was straightballed as a realistic portrayal of American Military incompetence, I have a suspicion that Netflix would quickly feel the effects of angry alt-right, angry trump, angry military vets feeing that they and the service are somehow being dishonored, the blue lives/yellow ribbon people, etc etc.. They'd ALL be up in arms, and Netflix has been working hard for a few years to bring in that older, whiter, less tech-savvy audience with shows like Longmire, Frank and Gracie, etc.

Tom Roth is one of three actors I'll watch anything they're in. Jude Law and Robert Downey Jr being the other two. Clive Owen was on that list until I saw that horrible Trust movie (not to be confused with Hal Hartley's Trust, which is my favorite film of all time)

Clive Owen's great but was definitely slumming it for a while. Michael Shannon and Nicholas Cage are pretty much my only anytime-anywhere picks, and the latter is obviously shaky.

My only Go-To actor right now is Joaquin Phoenix, but he only seems to do a movie a year now, so it's not a problem. I have my go-to directors and keep the actors as bonuses, not sellers.Uncle Boogeyman posted:Clive Owen's great but was definitely slumming it for a while. Michael Shannon, to me, is the white supremacist in Let's Go To Prison and General Zod, in that order. He was in Mud and Kangaroo Jack, but I don't remember him in either. He looks scary, and I heard he caught a lot of flack for talking poo poo about acting, like "I only show up for a paycheck nowadays, don't really care about 'craft', which isn't great. I love Nicolas Cage, though, and will rightfully defend him for three simple words: "Adaptation" "Raising" "Arizona". precision posted:Have you seen Trust (2010)? It's that bad. No, I honestly have no idea what it is and I'm not going to look it up.
