This is so fucked up. Way over the line.

[VinylGuy]

it is weird but at the same time, not sure if it changes that much if its three lines.

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.

[VinylGuy]

what are the others? the stuff with Asia?

This is just the latest in several bad things to come out about this movie. Seriously starting to consider skipping it.

P*ssy

Would rather watch a Rick Steves bio

[epilogue]

Saw Roadrunner today.

Very VERY mixed feelings. Overall I think Tony would have hated it. But to be fair he probably would have hated any movie made about him.

There's a lot of surface stuff and almost no digging down. The first third of there movie is the best. There last third is a mess. There's stuff to like and celebrate. Especially the stuff from those who knew him best.

I have a million thoughts. But mostly I think I'm disappointed. The best stuff is genuinely moving and reminds me of who Bourdain was and the real, undeniable, and incredible impact he had on so many people. But I just feel like overall this movie got it wrong.

This isn't the movie Tony deserves.

Was a Tony movie so soon ever going to satisfy Joey, though? Seems like a non-starter for the passionate fans.

[epilogue]

this is exactly my fear

I had avoided reading anything about the movie including this thread. I wanted to go in cold. But now that I'm caught up and have read your earlier posts, I think you're fine skipping it.

Honestly, I'm torn. I did get a lot out of it, too. But still I feel like it was off. And I'm not sure I'll better for having seen it.
