I loathe Gone Girl, and Benjamin Button and The Social Network suck, but I think I like everything else he's made. He's a hell of stylist.

Kind of want to binge it now, but Zodiac is also available on Netflix and I've never seen that... I'm not super familiar with Fincher's style aside from Fight Club. The burden of choice.

Zodiac has little in common with fight club, and it's excellent.

Maybe they have a 30-season plan

I love Will Ferrell, but he felt very out of place on The Office.

The Dundees episode though is maybe my favorite Ferrell performance of all time. All his understated, under his breath stuff at the beginning just slays me.

*whispers* "this reminds me of Katrina."
