That first scene in The Force Awakens with Poe when he names Finn is friggin iconic to me and Oscar Isaac is having a blast there.

The performances are out-frigging-standing. Oscar Isaac is a revelation, especially for someone like me who unfortunately knew him best from his work as Poe Dameron, one of the worst and most derivative characters written in the past 20 years. May Calamawy is a delight, and Ethan Hawke is simply tremendous.
I really liked Harrow playing the genial host (“no crime here/the food is free”) to then have literally everybody wordlessly stand up when he gives an unspoken order.
This is always really cool. I once visited a small town in Japan and while eating in a cafe, the owner came by and pointed out a picture of Hugh Jackman eating there that was hanging on the wall. Apparently they had filmed part of The Wolverine in the town. When I went back and watched the movie later on, I recognized…
I got a very ‘Stanley Ipkiss’ vibe from Steven, both in the writing and in the performance. Not a complaint, just an observation. It’s actually kind of fitting, when you think about it.
I was moved during the ‘Steak date scene’. Oscar Isaacs acting during that scene was phenomenal as he realised 2 0r 3 days had passed without his knowledge.
Of course you’d defend this show, Ms. Moon!
I was curious about the village they were in and looked up the filming location. It’s a town north of Budapest. I recall having gone to a town north of Budapest back in 2007, coming back from Visegrad. Looked through some old photos, and turns out I took a picture of this square. I didn’t think I’d been there. I was…
On a more down note, that final museum sequence actually really took me out of it as the internal really just collapsed there. The smaller of the two is that in the village section we saw Marc taking over Steven’s body everytime there was danger, but for some reason now there had to be asking for it? This part can…
shout out to the scene in the restaurant, made me instantly root for this sad, confused little man
AVC: The 1970s was just one masterpiece after another, but was there any sense while filming The Godfather that it would have this longevity and legacy?
That is the best thing Duvall has ever done, and I’ll say it, the best thing Tommy Lee Jones has ever done.
Robert Duvall is always great, but him as Gus in Lonesome Dove to me is just at a different level. When Diane Lane as Lorie eventually falls in love with him despite the age difference, you get it, yes this guy is it
For wisdom? Hell yes. Wisdom and the London Symphony Orchestra.
John G. Roberts, Chief Supreme Court Justice and licensed, practicing necromancer has his Coalition of Warlocks and Wizards lobby every year to pass a bill allowing government funded necromancers. No one wants to hear him out. In 2009, he even tried lobbying the GOP in a promise to bring back Ronald Reagan with…
He says the lawsuit is motivated by money. My response would be “so?”.
As someone who loved “Power of The Dog” and loves Sam Elliot.
And listened to the WTF episode in full.
I have to say this an example of people editing what someone said in order to be out raged.
The first movie kind of encapsulated a lot of feelings about things I had that skeeved me as a kid. The grimy 70's feeling. The old, rotting gas station out in the middle of nowhere with a creepy guy working there and rusty old junk. My cousin I played with when I was a kid lived out in the sticks in an old farm…
the first 40 minutes are actually pretty decent, up until the bus scene, and then it feels like a completely different movie. The sunflower field scene I actually thought was super fucking tense.
This was an amazing season finale with so many awesome moments.
