Team Foxcatcher. Was a big fan of the motion picture. It's weird how this one completely leaves out Mark Schultz but it's pretty good. What a creepy dude.
Issuing correction on a previous post of mine, regarding the rapist Woody Allen. You do not, under any circumstances, "gotta hand it to him."Mickey wrote:Annie Hall holds up but I don't know if I could look past the sex pest aspect of Manhattan. It's been a few years since I've seen it but I remember being taken out of the movie by how nonchalantly it was presented, and I think the further I get from being 17 myself the worse it feels. I'm not even a cancel Woody Allen guy necessarily, I still enjoy Annie Hall, but this one is hard to appreciate.

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.

Yeah, I enjoy it in the way that I enjoy Star Wars but it's really not a great movie. Nice final act, though.Bi_3 wrote:My six year old picked Return of the Jedi last night for family movie night... did not age well.
