A good buddy of mine walked out with 20 minutes left. And he’s such a tight ass that I’m sure that almost killed him. The reviews are awful and the movie makers saying go fuck yourselves is hilarious. [Reply]

The only movie I can remember that was able to pull off a modern movie musical is Moulin Rouge. [Reply]

He pulled it off nicely in the newest Batman, so I'm sure this new gig is living up to the hype
Colin Farrell has been a terrific actor since (at least) In Bruges.
Apparently a really nice guy too. My buddy dated Shea Whigham’s cousin (he and Colin have been friends since Tigerland). Got to hang out with them in New York [Reply]

I mean there's just no reason for this movie to exist.
Well, maybe there's a reason for it, if you're inclined to listen to the voices on the internet?
It's above my pay grade and I have no idea what the story is with this movie. All I know is that I'm pretty sure I'm never going to sit down and watch this contrived shit. [Reply]
