Pesci was great. I hope he chooses to start working more often.

I’m not sure the last 40 minutes are earned. That’s where he’s pining for his daughters respect, but aside from getting the occasional scowl from the oldest throughout the film, I don’t see her as a character. It’s just a little girl thinking “I do not approve of who you are or what you do.” I get her motivations, but

Isn’t that mostly just a technicality to be eligible for awards season? I thought a movie has to play in an LA and NY theater before it can win an Oscar.

He’s been phoning it in for so many years,  and I'm just not old enough to remember a time where he was legitimately great. Though he was definitely better in Goodfellas than he was here. 

Nah. I sincerely doubt that anybody who had worked on this project gives one shit whether people watch it in one piece, or divided into 3, 7, or 1,000 different viewing sessions. There is no “You have to watch this all at once, and your save, pause and fast forward functions have all been disabled” disclaimers at the

Yeah. He was a really flat character

I don’t think he actually gives a shit if you decide to watch his movie however you want. He was asked for his thoughts about why he didn’t create a mini series and gave an honest answer.

I knew Marty was probably opposed to the idea of breaking it up into pieces, so I played along and watched it in one sitting. That’s how he wants me to consume it, so fine, I gave it a shot.

I’d try that, but I just don’t have that much material about knowing Colin Jost.

Having watched this movie (you should have waited to watch before commenting) there is absolutely no way any of this was glamorized. At all. Everybody either dies brutally or ends up in prison, and there isn’t even the sexy peak that you get in Goodfellas. At best you’ve got a bunch of cronies throwing him a lavish

So...in time for the Holiday season?

To be fair,  Cavill could have given an entertaining performance as well. He *can* be charming. I've seen him do it. It's just that Snyder specifically directed him to be a cipher. Which was...a decision. 

I’m sorry, did an expert in the field just come out and say that geese typically do not carry on them a list of horrible pranks that they dutifully perform throughout the day. Is she “Not All Geese”ing us on a game where you intentionally rip the glasses off a dweeby kid’s face and bring back the wrong pair?

I prefer the cold silence of me nodding my head and texting nothing back, assuming that everything is fine, only to be told that, no, you idiot, you need to actually respond. 

South Bend is 26% black. So it’s not that white.

Have you seen the average person? We’re not that far off right now. 

Yeah, but you’ve gotta watch the dressing. That’ll get you. 

What kind of moron pans over to see a standing cop car and fire truck, when there is a goddamn dog doing reverse donuts on the other side of the action? And it’s coming toward you. If for no other reason than self preservation, keep an eye on the interesting thing, moron.

It’s less impressive when you realize that almost all pop songs use the same four chords and the same time signature.

Because they’re talking down to the very people they’re supposed to be appealing to. You wouldn’t talk to a Boomer by saying “Yo Dawg, why don’t you make the voting booth your 19th hole. Tom Clancy for the win!”
