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.

Werewolf is way more horror-oriented than those other movies, I'd say. But it's really a singular beast (no pun intended). I love it.

Lots of big laughs during this one. I recommend itgardenparty wrote:I'm going to see the Oasis documentary in a theater tonight. Should be a lot of fun.
And I don't even like Oasis
Also, Rivers Cuomo sat in front of me in the theater which was cool

In general, I tend to find him underwhelming. But his sports related movies tend to be really strong.

Re: What movies are you watching?
Absolutely watch it, yes. He's not amazing in it or anything. But he's fine. He doesn't do an accent. Big whoop. But the rest of the movie more than makes up for whatever he lacks. It's a good movie.lennytheweedwhacker wrote:should i watch robin hood? he seems completely miscast for that role, but i feel like i should still give it a trydurdencommatyler wrote:He also pretty much invented whisper-acting.

Re: What movies are you watching?
I look forward to your thoughts. It's been at least a decade since I've seen it. So, it may not really hold up. But I remember it being really solid, for the most part. I saw it several times in theaters and then on home video, too.
