The Founder.
Pretty good. Kinda bland, but I guess that fits.

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.

You're goddamn right she does.

How did you enjoy Stepbrothers, given your hatred of Ferrell but love for Hahn?
Oh, I've never seen that movie.

Her turn is magnificent, one of my favorite roles she's ever done. But obviously Ferrell gets way more screen time.
I wanted to see the movie when it first came out. Big JCR fan. And big Hahn fan as well. I don't always hate Ferrell but I don't think he's as good across the board as so many others do. A lot of the time he works against himself and his style just doesn't resonate with me, in general.
But I never saw and I keep meaning to. I've heard great things about it. People I trust seem to really love it. I just never think about it when I'm searching for something to watch.

Will Ferrell is a motherfucking American treasure. Respect him or move the fuck away.

Groundhog Day
Stepbrothers
Dr. Strangelove
Best In Show
Office Space
Planes, Trains, and Automobiles
Zoolander
The Big Lebowski
The Ladykillers
Beverly Hills Cop
Anchorman
Dragnet
Lotta good laughs on that list, friend.
