But I'll be shocked if La La Land isn't this year's winner. This movie looks.... well, it looks like everything I want a movie to be.

Umm... HELLO... Rogue One

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.

I sure do like a lot of those people.

Yea, there's some good films scattered throughout. I didn't realize Debra Granik (the director of Winter's Bone) hadn't done anything else. That film was great. Also, her second film was called Down to the Bone. Then she did Winter's Bone. And now she's adapting Russell Banks's Rule of the Bone. What's the deal with bones, amirite?
