Is there also a scene in the movie where Bryce Dallas Howard realizes she’s only in the movie because Jessica Chastain said no. 

I’m starting to think, and hear me out on this, that a 79-year-old producer might not be the best arbiter of what’s funny. 

Here’s a simple one: Greta Lee instead of Annette Benning in yet another boilerplate biopic that glosses over some very real issues with the subject matter to make her a generic “hero”. 

Totally forgot to mention Sessa in my post. He was the heart and soul of that film. The other two certainly did more acting, but they didn’t grab me the way he did (in his first movie role, no less).

Greta Lee is the only egregious acting snub. Leo did ok with a role that was totally wrong for him. 

The only part I liked about it was when the gummy hit at the exact moment (SPOILER ALERT) the stop-motion alien showed up.

Best: If they would’ve had a livefeed as a harried producer screamed into their headset: “We were wrong. It’s not funny. Someone hurry up and take away her microphone before people hate Anthony Anderson’s mom even more than they already do.”

Counterpoint: Leo stepped so far out of his comfort zone that the role could’ve been played by lots of actors who better fit the part.  

Such a weird movie. It’s actually super straightforward (like a middle school production of The Talented Mr. Ripley). I saw every “twist” coming a mile away. But then, they throw in three or four bonkers scenes to try to convince you you’re watching something transgressive. Watch Titane and tell me again how bonkers…

Weird that you mentioned two-thirds of the leads in The Holdovers, but failed to choose the most impressive one. That’s the best first-time performance by a teenager since...Jason Schwartzman in Rushmore?

Bad Bunny may not have been the best host, but his episode was the best of the year. 

“Also, I can’t seem to stop doing this weird thing with my mouth. Every picture, it’s the same pursed lips. Why can’t I stop? WHY?!”

I just hope he remembered to bring his dumb little ceramic coffee cup.

So happy that Jon Hamm is reprising his role as Reverend Richard Wayne Gary Wayne. 

My problem with season 4 is that each actor seemed to be in a different show. Jessie went broad. Chris Rock went serious. And Jason Schwartzman’s brother, Jesus, I’m not sure what he was doing. But it’s probably no coincidence I haven’t seen him in anything else since.

I feel like I’m taking crazy pills for having a similar reaction to every “I think you should leave” sketch. Tim says or does something crazy, people react like any normal person would and he acts like they’re the crazy ones.

I’ll admit, I wish I was a little bit taller. I also wish I was a baller and that I had a girl who looked good so I could call her.

George Clooney as a schlub who loses his wife to Matthew Lillard is some of the worst casting of all time. 

Her IG profile says she’s “proudly unvaxxed”. But it sounds like she still got subjected to a prick. 

Weird thing to say given the talent involved, but I’m much more invested in the murder mystery than the comedy, which is frankly pretty cringeworthy.
