Have you seen 99 Homes? It's pretty good.
Mrs. Trag thinks it looks too melodramatic, so it's been perpetually passed over whenever we're trying to find something to watch. Yet Downton Abbey isn't too melodramatic, apparently...
does she make you watch downton abbey with her?

If you go to Guillermo del toros Twitter he has pictures up of his exhibition. All his props and artefacts. It's great stuff.

I can't tell how excited I should be for this. I love the cast. Guess, I'm cautiously optimistic. I mean, I'm absolutely going to see it. But I'm not sure how funny it's actually going to be. I'm worried they put too much in the trailer.

Yeah, I kinda of agree with you. It's really just the cast that has me optimistic.

Its a great cast, but they are pretty much doing the same they did in a few recent movies and the new ones look exactly like other stars that arent here..like that zack galifniakisksksksks double there.

I guess im just tired of the whole " oh we are going to make a badass reckless party" movie theme.

I totally get that. That's why I'm only cautiously optimistic.

Viggo Mortensen has a new film and it looks great. He's coming to Dublin in a couple of weeks for a screening and a q&a. My pal is running it so hopefully I'll get to meet him :)

All you had to do was say Chris Nolan and you had me hard!

Some fucking gorgeous shots in that trailer. And it's tense as fuck for less than one minute. I'm super excited to see this.

I visited Dover Castle last month so got to see some of this. My son was very interested in the whole thing so we'll probably watch this one in the theater.

Hope it's not too fanciful. Like most stories that came out of WWII, the story is crazy enough by itself, there's no need to embellish.

Some nice shots, but it's Nolan, so I am 100% confident it will suck.

Nobody could ever accuse you of not being confident about your opinions, LV. I think we could all learn a lot from you.

I'm a big Nolan fan. I fully expect this to be a wonderful film.
