That actually makes a ton of sense. I wouldn't want to paint HBO as the "good guys" in any case, when really they're all cut from the same asshole cloth.

Then how would you suggest I watch an HBO show? Go to a friend's house who has it? Is that not the same as stealing? What if I borrow the DVDs when they come out? What if, as soon as HBO decided to bypass the cable companies and made their streaming service available to anyone with a credit card, I jumped at the…

Once those dragons grow up, it's game over, she wins the throne. And it's kind of all she's got going for her. So I'd be really pissed too, and it would pretty much be all I talk about.

We know a guy who has HBO Go and simply use his password.

Franco really grabbed this whole shitshow by the balls.

Is it curious, or predictable that there are no LA dates?

Why not just make a movie like this where the terrorist group consists of someone from literally every country that hates us or has a reason to hate us? Sort of like a Rainbow Coalition of terrorists from France, Germany, Russia, Iran, North Korea, China. Then they all get into an argument about who hates us the most,…

I think everyone was waiting on his next picture to see if Training Day was all Denzel. Once that was a confirmed "yes" with Tears of the Sun, the heat definitely went away.

Presidents are just funny. The word President is funny. "President _______" is an instant comedic premise, whether you fill in the blank or not.

I have some ideas for reality shows and if this one got made then I can make these

I think they're just fine. I'm seeing them and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs in April at the Cosmopolitan hotel, and I'm not going to be folding my arms about it.

400 Blows is one of the most memorable 4th wall breaks there is, pretty surprised it wasn't on here. Although I loved the juxtaposition of Goodfellas with The Great Train Robbery.

My friend read the script early on, and told me how bad it was going to flop. To hear him tell it, it was a movie about the internet, and how, when plugged into the internet, everyone gets to be buff tall blue cat people who fuck, and the happy ending is that they get to live in the internet forever. It sounded like…

I still love James Cameron's super backhanded comment where he admitted Spielberg was a better choice for Jurassic Park because Spielberg makes silly movies for dumb little kids, whereas Cameron would have made like a totally badass violent Aliens version you guys.

My girlfriend saw Black Swan before I did and LOVED it. When I got around to watching it, I thought of it as more of a hothouse, Tennessee-Williams-on-crack ballet B-movie, but she thought it was a hypererotic work of art. We both enjoyed it on different levels, accepted it and that was that.

Frankly, there is an audience for boring domestic struggle movies, because there are scads of people who don't really give a shit about movies "pushing boundaries and doing creative, personal things" but would rather, in their own words, watch a movie about "real life." They're the type of people who would think Brick…

"Motherlover" to me was even better than "Dick in a Box," but I admit "Three-Way" was a step down. I'm sure I'll see this one pop up on YouTube or Hulu at some point.

In Bruges was so, so unbelievably good, that Seven Psychopaths couldn't help but feel like a disappointment to me, even though I knew it was trying to go for something different.

I feel your pain. What a damn show that would be.

Nick Cave, another act I've been dying to see. Damn, maybe my concert game is weaker than I thought.
