nope. Donkey diarrhea.
for reasons unknown i put it back on as i was laying in bed last night and stopped at this part
Really? There are some complex themes and subtext going on there. Clearly Adam Sandler put a lot of thought into it. It's really quite interesting. I guess you guys just didn't "get it".

Jk, it was just a shitting donkey.
Lol

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 dont recall the last thing Sandler did that I enjoyed. Maybe Reign O'er me or Punch Drunk love. Comedy hasn't been funny since Big Daddy (which I love)

I hit it with the one star rating. It was at like 4 and 1/2 the other day. Mankind is so hopeless.

The rating you see on netflix is a mix of what others rated the movie and what netflix thinks you'll rate it based on your history. So you played a large part in that 4.5 stars, friend.

Maybe netflix is artificially propping up the rating? I choose to believe that.

I saw two different but not so different movies....

Zipper, with patrick wilson...boring cautionary tale about a future congressman and how he deals with power. Of course its sex. Its so fuckin boring and right wing that shocked me, it seemed like a Hallmark fuckin movie from the 90s....everytime the guy looked for porn in the web this really serious music was there to tell us what to feel.

American Psycho, a classic for me by this time, closer in the subject of people with power doing bad stuff but so different in the way it approach the material. The book is a masterpiece, and the movie is close...and yeah, Bale fuckin delivers here. Great casting...Bale, Whiterspoon,...Samantha Mathis!! man, she was gorgeous and great!! Willem Dafoe, Chloe Sevigny...Even Jared Leto.

Great, great movie.

Sometime's when I see the shit Netflix recommends for me I wonder what in the hell is wrong with the system.

Huge fan of Knock Knock. Hilarious, unsettling satire. Far and away Eli Roth's best movie.

Yeah, im warming with that one. At first, i didnt quite liked it....I mean, i dont buy the whole ¨feminist¨movie thing. Its stupid.

But, its fun and reckless and Keanu kinda rules in a very awkward and silly way.

I wouldn't say it's "feminist." I think, similarly to Green Inferno, it's a satire about the inhumane nature of modern PC culture.
Spoiler: show
That closing image of Keanu helplessly buried, watching his life be destroyed on Facebook without him being able to do anything, is a pretty perfect visualization.
Eli Roth is becoming the new Larry Cohen.

True. Thats a pretty good comment on social networks, on this milleniall culture that needs everything to be PC or destroy otherwise.
