Million Dollar Baby next

[Jorge]

That's an expensive baby

[Anders]

It’s pretty great, just terribly sad.

[Anders]

Collateral now

[JuanHamm]

I love Collateral. Another great Tom Cruise performance.

[Ello Sailor]

But is he sexy?

[Anders]

Before Sunset

[Jorge]

Watched Hustle. Formulaic but enjoyable. I thought the training montage was really well done

DL’d that to watch on my flight yesterday but I watched the Other Guys instead

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.

Thus was my thoughts too.

Watched Copland again. Love this movie. So much to enjoy despite its flaws. Rewatchables said "is this the best three-star movie ever" and I think it's a fair question.

Very 70s in its filming, performances, storytelling. Some logic leaps in there for sure, but I really enjoy watching the plot fold back on itself several times over, and Liotta, Stallone, and DeNiro are all awesome; Keitel seems to be on autopilot.

i enjoyed that movie quite a bit, then saw it again and liked it half as much, and now i have no desire to see it again

[Jorge]

I remember it being extremely long and depressing

It had a good point that made sense to me. When he had cancer, he realized what he actually wanted from his life (the lady), but it was too late. When he realized he was cancer free and it actually wasn't too late, he had a renewed zest, vigor, and he pursued the lady, only to realize it was actually too little, too late anyway. Kinda poetic and sad. But then he realized he still had people in his life he could have healthy relationships with, and began to pursue this actual reality. Happy ending.

Well, the movie is called "funny people", so I guess it had plenty intention to explore what it's like to be a comedian with comedian friends. I get why you weren't interested, but I also get why it's interesting to some, as it was interesting to me that one time.
