doesn't Rob Lowe play EXCACTLY the same character in Thank you for Smoking as he does in Wayne's World?

TW for S sure knows nothing about Mad Men. Leopardskin pillbox hat? 'unintentionally campy'? Get the hell out of my office.

Now I really can't argue with THAT, Pinkie.

See, I believe that the exact opposite of that sentence is true. Faaaahnny old world , innit, eh? Eh?

it's weird how two people can look at the same thing and take completely opposite messages from it. I'm not denigrating anyone's response to his work, but I honestly can't agree with a single word of 'he seems to be miles away from a smug polemicist like von trier. mike leigh seems to like human beings' . The work of

You have now.

C'mon, you've gotta admit Slacker is pretty special.

Mike Leigh: conman.
It blows my mind that apparently intelligent, insightful critics and filmgoers can tolerate this guy's shallow, pantomime bilge. Large chunks of Naked are undeniably impressive : the inarguably thrilling sustained attack of Thewlis'performance, the always-gripping Lesley Sharp, one of the most

I was mainly going for physical resemblance, but yeah, I can see that.

James Ransone.

CHRIS Cunningham? He's make one motherfucking COLOSSAL Alien movie.

HR from Bad Brains?

M G I what the fuck is your problem? Did you understand what I was saying? I wasn't berating him, I was giving him my honest take on his question. I've got to the stage in my life where I am less inclined to will myself into being interested or even enthused over films, books, music, art etc that doesn't speak to me

Best club scene in a movie ever.
The bit where Keitel goes into the backroom of a nightclub to smoke up a little crack is the most authentic club scene I;ve ever seen, largely because it looks exactly like the sort of dark, noisy, overcrowded cunt's paradise that real clubs are, as opposed to the roomy, well-lit

All I know is that i saw this movie at the Glasgow film Theatre with 3 friends, none of whom were Catholic. It blew me away and stayed with me for weeks. My 3 fellow movie-goers (all hardcore movie nerds, incidentally) spent the drive home loudlty deriding the movie and badgering me 'as the only Tim in the car' to
