The Purple Rose Of Cairo

[Malloy]

I saw A Quiet Place Part II and i liked it. it's bad, but i had fun and found it thrilling. maybe i was just desperate to be with my m8s in a movie theater.

Rainy dreary day here. Going to watch In the Heights.

Hey I watched Pathfinder (1987) last year. Pretty good.

Nice. I’ll watch it again as well.

Hard Eight

[tragabigzanda]

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Hard Eight

Love this one. You catch the Magnolia/Jimmy Gator reference?

I did not, but I haven't seen Magnolia since I was in high school so it's not exactly fresh.

There's a scene when Jackson is saying something like "I know all those gangsters from LA..." He starts listing them, and one of them is Jimmy Gator, who was the TV host played by Philip Baker Hall in Magnolia.

Oh shit yeah, okay.

[Mickey]

Started Boogie Nights to continue on this Anderson kick.

[Anders]

Platoon

Fantastic movie.

[Anders]

Raging Bull

Good night for movies.

Yeah, I found it kinda hard to watch. I respect it though.

Tiny detail my wife pointed out last time I tried to watch it: the age of the young blonde he courts at the pool seems off.

[Anders]

While Platoon is easily five stars for me, and one I have seen multiple times. Raging Bull I think I have only seen once before. Then I think I was hoping for another Rocky, and got nothing like it.

About half an hour in now, and I think it has a great start. De Niro gained 60 pounds to play the role, and fully embraces it. He’s not just playing him here, he is Jake LaMotta.

The film is beautifully shot in black and white, really giving the movie a different feel.

The dialogue has also been on point.

We’ll see how the movie progresses for me.

They got married when she was 16, was married for 11 years, and the actress playing her was 20.

Yeah, we just thought they could've nailed the youth better.

Hello "quotes" thread!

It is a bit slow at times.
