You didn't like the scene where Leo tried to drive home?tragabigzanda wrote:Every scene with Jonah Hill was fun. Also Leo snorting coke out of that girl's ass at the beginning? That was fun too.theplatypus wrote:The Wolf of Wall Street was fun. It was other things too. But definitely fun.
But that totaled maybe 15 minutes in a movie that I otherwise found to suck.

I don't watch wrestling much, but the behind the scenes business and culture is utterly fascinating. Such broken, drug addicted people sacrificing themselves for such a bizarre niche of entertainment...
