The Jason Statham look.

I love love love when the guy gets to actually fire his guns into the air and go “AAAAAAAUGH!”, and it’s funny and moving at the same time - funny because of the callback to the very funny scene earlier, and moving because he’s going “AAAAAAAUGH!” in serious anguish. It’s BRILLIANT writing.

They’re like having a neighbor you’re friendly with who has a pool: we can occasionally jump into the pool and have fun, but we’re not the ones who are paying for its upkeep.

Star for Velvet Goldmine. Todd Haynes best work. 

The Cornetto Trilogy should be on everyone’s list...but I forgot to put them on mine

For this scene alone! An old roommate and I watched this movie on mushrooms and we DIED watching this scene. Rewind, laugh until we cry, rewind and repeat.

Groundhog Day is great — other under-appreciated Murray movies like What About Bob and The Man Who Knew Too Little are also good stuff

Fun fact, My Cousin Vinny is actually shown in law schools because of how accurate its depiction of a criminal trial is.

Two thumbs up from me for Hot Fuzz. I can’t think of a funnier film comedy that has come out since, and we’re now talking about eleven years ago.

I was originally going to go with movies that deeply affected my worldview, but honestly, I think my deepest tendency with film is toward silly popcorn fare.

Titanic - Before anyone chimes in with the usual, probably deserved, Titanic criticisms, let me just say, “Oh, stop it, Mother. You’ll give yourself a nosebleed.”

Dead Man because Johnny Depp being called a stupid white man throughout an entire movie just puts a smile to my face.

Could we call him “Boss”? Because that would really bring my childhood full circle.

First - shame one everyone involveds parents. Two of these people are actual children.

Not regardless youre trying to cast doubt on what she aacomplished today. Curious did you ask this about the miracle on the Hudson? Obviously not or youd already have your answer so I wonder what is different about those two pulots that makes you doubt her?

On the plane I fly when a major malfunction occurs we disengage the autopilot, regain control of the aircraft run any drills and then and only then do we consider engaging the autopilot again.

I swear water chestnuts are just the evil spawn of a potato and styrofoam. I’m not a fan of bloody marys either but they don’t get violently flicked out of my stir fry onto the table.

Banana flavoured medicine only ruined artificial banana for me. The flavour of actual real banana is substantially different enough from the fake stuff that it wasn’t ruined for me.

That is horrifying.

Nobody is abusing these. They’re consumer grade garbage that some shitbag is littering the streets with in order to justify the $300 million he stole from investors. This is the equivalent of getting mad that the scooter you bought from Walmart and left outside for two weeks doesn’t work so hot.

Love when I’m handed a martini and the bartender says, “Take a big sip out of that, there’s more in the shaker.” I may be coming out of the gates a bit too hot, but if I’m ordering a martini chances are I want to be squinting one eye to see straight sooner rather than later.
