Say Anything. Pretty good 80s high school love story but I didn't like the ending. Cool to see the iconic In Your Eyes scene in its context.

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.

Like four scenes and a little bit during the credits. Not a ton.

He's not the main character, verm. It would be weird if he were in it more, actually.

I wanted to. Started off really strong. Had vibes of ET, Goonies, and Jaws. But it slowly unraveled for me, and by the end I was barely paying attention.
I totally understand that. I'm a JJ fan, but I absolutely understand why people dislike him. He just scratches a very specific itch for me and I appreciate what he does, even when I know it's nothing brilliant or revolutionary. Sometimes it's just down right derivative. But Super 8 especially, got its hooks in me. I don't know. The magic really worked.
