what are your thoughts on kevin costner?
In general, I tend to find him underwhelming. But his sports related movies tend to be really strong.

Prince of Thieves is an average movie but Rickman's performance has to be seen to be believed. He is AMPED.

I was also super into Christian Slater at the time. So that helped amp up my love for it. And Michael Wincott!

Re: What movies are you watching?
I'll probably just pick a movie I've seen a ton and then let others talk about it. And I'll read their thoughts and jump in when I get back.

Mascots was fun.

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.

Begin Again.
Well, that was cool. I really appreciate the ending...The not-love story this was. And Ruffalo was good.
