I thought i had seen it before. Isn't there another time travel movie that JGL is in? That is a passenger on a train and he keeps going back in time to try and save everyone on it?
Jake Gyllenhaal was in Source Code.

That's it. Thanks!

It's a solid script with dialogue that feels authentic, and an excellent cast. In the end, I'm not sure it amounts to much more than a gripping story told well, but I enjoyed it. Jesus, did it get intense toward the end.

^ I really enjoyed Fassbender as Steve Jobs. Sorkin is such a better writer for movies these days.

I also loved The Hateful Eight.

Was Sorkin the writer?? That makes so much sense. I loved the way the whole thing flowed and was told. Fassbender is outstanding. Didn't think he had it in him. But he shines in this.


A pal of mine is raving about a film called I smile back.
Sarah Silverman in her first dramatic role.

Gonna watch tonight.

Yep, it has Sorkin all over it :) The dialogue has his patented rhythm and it works well for this one.

I watched The Intern last night. Standard fare, but it was enjoyable. De Niro and Hathaway were lovely together.

The Danish Girl looks like the most laughable garbage ever. Tom Hooper is a joke.

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.

We don't need LV's quote to connect, Lenny. I've been eyeing you from across the room for a while now.
