Not very far at all, like I just finished the first disc of the first season set.

Well, of course. But what do I know? I'm a bear, I suck the heads off fish!

Do you like any movie Shane Black has written/made? If so, check out Iron Man 3. It's as Shane Blackian an action-comedy as one could get with guys who defeat bad guys with their suits.

"Next-level cinematography + eh story" = More than enough fuel for The Narrator's excitement.

Also, I'm still plugging away at The Shield, looking for approval from Papa wallflower.

Earlier in the week, I finished off the year in style with Carol (my favorite movie of the year) and House of Games. This weekend…

Also, apparently the bit he's going on about being "the truth" is like 15 seconds long in the movie, which bodes better for the movie while making his statement even dumber.

He's working with so many great people here (not just the cast and not just Lubezki, but Ryuichi Sakamoto and Jack Fisk) that I think the movie has to be inherently more-than-50% good just because of them, so that's what I'm hoping too.

Maybe he's going overboard on the pretentious fraudulence in the media because he didn't put enough of the fraudulence in the film proper. Think about it.

I'm imagining him like Will Smith in Concussion.

Of those, Certain Women and especially Hail, Caesar! are the big ones. However, TODD!!!!! has failed to include many of my most-anticipated films, which means his list is objectively bad and wrong and mine below is good.

I knew Walton Goggins long before this, but I couldn't call myself a "fan" without stretching the truth before Hateful Eight.

Justified is in that backlog.

Yeah, I got the DVD set (shockingly) cheap at Best Buy.

So, I guess I might as well put it here; I've started watching The Shield. There were just too many reasons to start watching it (namely wallflower's cheerleading, as well as a newfound Walton Goggins fandom thanks to The Hateful Eight and the fact that David Mamet directed an episode) for it to remain in my backlog

Well, that's all the material I got for you folks this fine evening. Tip your waitresses!

Man, it must have been tough for you two to get through those spaghetti-eating scenes.

Hmm, I like your readings of both of those. I may have to consider giving it another go.
