Well, there were a whole litany of crappy roles to choose from. I just chose the two that immediately popped into my head.

Spike Jonze

Thank god there are two Adam Goldbergs. I thought for a moment that character actor extraordinaire (and Hebrew Hammer) Adam Goldberg had thrown in the towel and started creating terrible sitcoms.

Well played my friend. Well played.

I can get behind that.

That's funny. I was going to mention Dando in my post. A few weeks ago, when I was sick, I was overcome with a bizarre wave of 90's nostalgia and stumbled into this internet k-hole of interviews and articles about Hatfield/Dando. It's a Shame About Ray is still a classic…

I agree, but this was his last ever concert with the Cardinals in front of a sold-out crowd. Really not the right milieu for playing half-ass beats. The irony is that Adams was the drummer for his pre Whiskeytown band the Patty Duke Syndrome…

Hatfield is still pretty attractive. It was somewhat weird to find out that she ostensibly lost her long-standing virginity to Spike Jonze, of all people, back in the day.

It's like the time I saw Ryan Adams as the drummer for his opening act (which incidentally, was the guitarist for his backing band at the time, the Cardinals). Not good. Not good at all.

Remember when Black Star was a thing? Damn, Mos used to be so good, (especially with Talib Kweli). I realize that the guy had other interests outside of hip hop, but when you're that good, I think co-starring in sub-par Mark Wahlberg and Bruce Willis flicks is just squandering your talent.

And there's the rub. I feel like anything produced by Netflix or having to do with weed and/or video games is a guaranteed 3.5/4 star rating. That being said, I've watched any number of movies on there with supremely low ratings and have been pleasantly surprised. Of course, my taste isn't all that mainstream, so

I've had this on my Netflix queue forever. Might have to finally check it out tonight. Especially since it's supposed to start snowing later on. I haven't been too impressed with much modern horror, but 76 minutes doesn't sound like that much of an investment.

You've got a point there. Good lord, that woman was hot…

I always thought this guy looked like Peter Murphy from The Bauhaus…

Yes to Logan's Run. Still upset that Nicolas Winding Refn's version never came to fruition.

I kind of just wanted to watch a movie about Rockwell's character. The stuff with the kid was okay, but we've seen it all before. It didn't help that the movie felt a little too much like an Adventureland retread and it was unclear as to when exactly the movie was supposed to have taken place. There were times when

Not trying to be contrarian, but to me Catcher in the Rye is like: White People Problems, the Book!

I was waiting for someone to mention her. I think seeing The Sundays on 120 Minutes when I was in high school pretty much solidified my attraction to brunettes with British accents.

Exactly.

That's hilarious. It does kind of suck though because I remember having a VHS copy of Clownhouse that I had taped off of HBO as a teenager, but that's one movie that I can't separate from it's creator (nor the circumstances around the filming of it).
