Such a HOT dumb skank, I'm sure you mean.

1. Jules ignorance of Sienfeld was a high point. Sucks to be Larry David!
2. I think the Andy/Ellie escape scenario was when she will inevitably kill someone, not only Laurie.
3. Any backstory for Dime Eyes that plays up/down to his vanity is a solid move.
She delivered it perfectly!
In her first scene, she's very worried about her job interview, he's trying to reassure her, and then Emily interrupts them like a psycho. Her annoyance was sort of reasonable there.
Well, Annette Benning and Julianne Moore have made it work; but how about having them be straight conniving manipulators … or sisters … or in a weird mother-daughter-therapist transference loop … so many other ways to go than making the hot babes kiss each other.
Also "I love his tiramisu."
Lack of sexual chemistry? But Elizabeth Banks solved that mystery this very episode!
Trust Alex to know the creative dorks who might actually have musical careers ahead of them.
Whose plan is to enjoy it in syndication after it's all over, where good and bad episodes can be consumed indiscriminately. Isn't that attitude the opposite of what a site like this, still reviewing Buffy and DS9 episode by episode because of fan interest, is for?
Okay, you found one. Supportive, but self-involved enough she didn't notice how manipulated she was by Rooney. So Emily sort of surrounded herself with mother figures whom she used for selfish goals.
(replying to Treefingers above because I don't get how Disqus works): Well, I'm happy to read people getting such different things out of it. Makes me feel better for liking the movie in spite of my problems with it, to see that my knee-jerk annoyance could just be my issue and not necessarily Soderbergh's.
I didn't find it that surprising that she didn't believe him. He was sounding kind of wacko there for a while, and that hotel liaison (that interrupted his lunch with his wife where she was worried about her job interview) did look like a very cosy couple was exchanging a naughty/romantic gift, rather than how Jude…
(Sorry, for some reason I can't reply directly to your question below, but re: my dissapointment):
Like they've ever had a good album cover? "Oh, look, that guitar is blurry." SHOEGAZE everyone! The one case where visual art doesn't matter at all.
Same experience of "You Made Me Realise" when I saw them in Boston with Dino Jr. People were flipping them off from the crowd before they were done. But they were still better than Dino that night. Never forget it.

Not when shoegaze is still happening. It's like the Titans checking on on those cute Olympians every epoch or so.

There's a remaster?
We've been breathing long enough.
