Great article, Nick!
I'm not gonna watch this movie, but I think I'll do that anyway!
The strongest CGI in the Hobbit still never looks real. At best, it looks like good CGI, but nothing else.
The fact that none of the Harry Potter movies won any technical awards is yet more proof that the Oscars are a joke. I mean, special effects, makeup(!!), anything!
Get out of here, sconn.
You spelt dilettantism wrong. If you're gonna be a snooty asshole, at least know your shit.
I love Amy Adams (The Master is my favorite movie of the decade so far), and I thought she was really good in her in a somewhat small role, but she made a few obvious choices in American Hustle that just made me feel like she was acting! in An Award Winning Movie—which I had never seen her do before. All that said,…
I realized while watching Smaug that I have wasted six hours of my life on the Hobbit movies, and basically, I don't give a shit about any of it at all. I LOVE LoTR, and I remember really liking the Hobbit book when I was a kid, but I have no desire to watch any of those characters do anything ever again—especially…
As a big Jonah Hill fan, I'm glad this site has warmed up to him, or at least the haters have shut up. Around Django-time last year, he was getting a lot of shit—I remember someone using the term "unfunny void of good acting." He was excellent: "I'm never going to Benihana again. I don't care who's birthday it is."
I liked American Hustle (I've seen it twice), but I think it's really flawed. Basically, it's a very fun and funny movie. That's it. The acting was strong, but its style was derivative, and I found it incredibly misogynistic. The character Amy Adams played (in a really disappointingly cliché performance) used her…
This reminded me of the scene in the movie where the older couple asked him to perform, and he got all adamant about not doing it because it was work for him. Oscar Isaac is less of a tool than Llewyn, good to know.
"Suck a Cheetah's Dick" is a classic. I love that song's utter craziness and hilarity not in an ironic point-and-laugh kind of way. I didn't know anything about Willis when I heard it, it just made me laugh really fucking hard.
