null_pointer posted:I just remembered how whole thing started: I was talking with my brother in law, and he mentioned someone he worked with who was "like Joe Pesci from Casino was walking around wearing the skin of 'Robert Downey Jr as Tony Stark' to try and fool everyone." Like, push them the wrong way and you'll have a ballpoint pen through your neck ... Kevin Spacey. Not any particular character he plays, the actual Kevin Spacey.

CatstropheWaitress posted:Having never read the forum rules before, I sympathize but it's hilarious that ya'll had to codify that people shouldn't be posting that they jacked off to a movie they just watched. The poor soul(s?) who just needed to shout it from the mountain that they got off to the Dark Knight, RIP. There was a thread for shameful movie confessions, which I think was supposed to be stuff like "I find Pulp Fiction boring"but people kept posting what they watched on HBO as a teenager late at night.

The Cameo posted:Danny McBride becoming one sort of guy when the first time I remember seeing him is in All The Real Girls (because Jody, Danny, and David Gordon Green I believe are all college friends, if not even older friends than that?) is very weird. Zoey Daschnel in All The Real Girls compared to Zoey Daschnel in The New Girl is also incredibly weird.

Johnny Cleanslice posted:Just FYI though I dunno about Warrior (haven't watched) but I'm slowly making my way through Banshee and it leans pretty hard into the whole Skinemax Softcore Fuckin thing...which cool, whatever it's just sex and nudity...buuuuut that includes a violent rape a few episodes in which felt like a pretty cheap way to justify how destroyed the villain of the week gets There's definitely some sexual violence in Warrior if you don't want to see that, just as a warning. Reacher has sex and has violence, but I don't think has any sexual violence.

His sidekicks are all also basically Reachers so he's not so much this alien catalytic force of justice that he was in the first one where all these stuffy rubes are trying to play it by the book and have to learn how to do things The Cool Way Yeah, having him be surrounded by a bunch of mini-Reachers I think was a poor choice. Should have stuck with the whole drifter in a strange town uncovering something nasty by accident thing.

They might just pay you to leave them alone Fox films is owned by Disney now, I would never recommend suing Disney unless your Lawyers are like "yeah, this is a total slam dunk case and also we accept full liability if you are countersued."

I haven't seen the Mean Girls Musical film but it's really weird that Renee Rapp is being super pushed on us in promotions and I don't even know the name of the actress that has the Lindsey Lohan part. Making the main bully the main character seems like the opposite of what the original film was about. And also the original film was based on a nonfiction book trying to break down high school bullying among teenage girls.

There's a movie I think called "I Love You [girl's name]" and I don't know how old the lead actor was, but I remember thinking he was at least the oldest looking actor to play a high school student.

I love when a movie just lies to you in the title. Edit: also, you should at least watch Goodfellas. I'm not going to say it's his best, but it's the one everyone likes. Air Skwirl fucked around with this message at 21:45 on Jan 30, 2024 |

regulargonzalez posted:"There is great art I am incapable of appreciating because it doesn't align with my interests" is one depressing-rear end, self-limiting worldview. Ehh, I think most of us have certain peccadillos where we can acknowledge the artistry and craft that went in to something while also being completely turned off by it based on subject matter. The opposite, and what you suggest is preferable is everyone saying Leni Reifenstahl is the greatest director of all time, with no asterisks next to it.

I think part of the point of Barbarella is that she isn't very active, she deals with situations as they come up but doesn't instigate conflicts. Which fits a movie starring Hanoi Jane.
