This movie came out when I was in my late 20's, so I had trouble identifying with its protagonists even as I respected its aesthetic and performances.

Well now I'm disappointed that this isn't what I just saw.
I saw it at around the right time (I was probably eleven or twelve,) and it just didn’t click for me.
Unpopular opinion: I don’t care for “Princess Bride.” It’s fine, I guess... it does a lot of things ok, but doesn’t do anything very well.
Yes, thanks!
A writer for the lamentably-defunct Comics Alliance mentioned that the only way to improve this movie would be to play the theme song throughout its running time.
Probably his finest moment, and terrific writing. I love the way he skips several steps between reaching for the last doll straight to pummeling a man.
How DARE someone have fun!?
200 Cigarettes is one of those movies that swings wildly between "mildly entertaining" and "godawful," depending on who's on screen. Love and Paul Rudd's story (while entirely predictable) made up almost the entirety of the "pretty decent" parts.
They could barely hold that image together, too. You couldn’t walk two blocks in Chicago in the 90s without hearing a “Jordan is an asshole” story. The one I heard most often was from fellow caddies: no tip, no autograph, no photos. If he had a bad round, supposedly ge wouldn’t even say goodbye and shake hands.…
Clarkson was absolutely amazing in her single scene on "Broad City." Whenever something goes wrong, or when one of the pets does something dumb or inexplicable, either my wife or I will inevitably yell "sometimes you get a DUD!"
Can’t wait. Regardless of one’s opinion of his films and/or style of directing, he’s a fascinating subject.
Garfield was superb in “The Conversation,” but for my money, he was at his best as Chuck “Cut Man” Kimmel on Sports Night. These chopped up clips rob the episode of its screwball flow, but Garfield’s oblivious ringside reporter is a blast even in short bursts.
You're also fat.
Of course women aren’t dogs. My point was that there are degrees to which people atone, regardless of the specific crime, and CK's inaction puts him on the lower rungs of the ladder.
You think CK is a comedy genius, yet you wouldn’t have known about it without a snarky article alerting you to it?
“is continuing to learn and grow”
Pretty sure they do “Luke I am your father” in the first Bill & Tedd, too.
For 1983, that was still awesome
So much more can be said about so mamy aspects of this movie (and by extension, Star Wars and blockbusters on general,) but I’ll try to keep it to two points:
