Yeah, tbf, they were both already comedic performers, they just hadn't done stand up specifically. And Aziz was playing a broad character anyway.

The half measure of casting Leslie Mann in this…..jeez. She's like 30 years younger than DeNiro, but then also was clearly cast because she's in her 40s and they wanted someone "older" so it didn't look too ridiculous. So it's a failure on both counts; another Hollywood double standard where incongruently young…

Jonah Hill and Aziz Ansari seemed somewhat naturalistic in Funny People despite having no stand up experience. I think in any of these it's a combination of the actor's naturalism in the role and the quality of the stand up writing itself. You can't just script a stand up bit and hand it to an actor to make it work,…

"I thought these things didn't happen anymore/I heard all that blood was shed long ago…"

Donny Donowitz of Inglorious Basterds was the father of Lee Donowitz of True Romance.

I wanna grab Quentin by the tit and yell at him "Rotoscope motherfucker!" I'd be down with a Vega Brothers movie done in the style of Waking Life or A Scanner Darkly. You can make them look younger, have fun with visuals, and still get human performances out of them.

Go figure, the leading voice in both-sides-ism aren't gonna heap on one candidate.

It makes me think of Up On Cripple Creek by The Band, and the Southern/Upstate NY combination there leads me to believe that should be a move for Luke Harper.

As morbid as it is, it feels like all the old masters are starting to see the end of the line coming after 2016 and they're pushing out some more resonant work. I'd love to see another Desert Trip type deal with artists in their twilight.

It's likely the opposite. The "athletic" ones from nice, traditional homes can raise a little ruckus and it's all fine. It's those "gritty" ones, probably throwing gang signs in the endzone, we need to do something about.

It would take a lot more than a 30 For 30 to dig into what makes Vince McMahon tick. The XFL, much like his attempts at promoting boxing, ICO-Pro, the World Bodybuilding Federation, WWE Films, and Linda McMahon's two Senate runs, all stem from Vince's obsession with not being looked down upon as a lowly "rasslin"…

I need to try this, it doesn't sound difficult at all. I'm a dumpster fire in the kitchen but I think I could make a go of this.

The xenophobic nature of this country really astounds me, because I'm over with my mouth watering at the thought of a Korean chicken & beer joint. How could anyone not want more of that? I wish Koreans wanted to live in my backwater town.

This didn't mention the two chief failures of this movie: Miller writing new stories rather than adapting his old and better received work for two of the chapters; and Rodriguez's insistence on hokey, cartoonish, "hey ma look at me!" special effects like he had used in Machete Kills.

Snyder/A CD jukebox in a 90s sports bar.

Greenwood's score for Inherent Vice was overdramatic for what they were doing. It worked on TWBB and The Master but I feel like it's going to be out of place in a fashion movie.

I love smart marks. In any other world, giving a context-free "Dave says…." would be baffling, yet we all know what you mean.

That's where I'm at now, I wanna pursue my stupid dreams and my girlfriend wants new countertops, so the pressure is on me to seek out a "owns your fucking life" job (everyone piles on me to go be a CO despite the fact that that sounds like torture.) 9 to 5 wouldn't even be bad

This episode is the fucking greatest hits of things that make me squirm: the fear of being stuck in a water slide, sunburns, going down a dry water slide (happened to me once when a slide's pump stopped on me), and the allusion to Chuck Palahniuk's "Guts" story that makes me want to vomit. All this was missing was…

Jesus shit, I think you're my Tyler Durden. It's a quixotic attempt at a music career for me.
