I feel that Cecily’s huge performance as Judge Jeanine, ending with My Way for God’s sake, has got to be a self-goodbye. Almost nobody gets an explicit on-screen salute except, for some reason, Kirsten Wiig.

I once had a local IPA, and the person I was with agreed that it tasted the way Lemon Pledge smells. Is that typical?
Excellent movie.
This line and the Family Circus one make me want to rewatch this tonight.
“Hey, my mother’s mother’s mother was black!”
The best hallucinatory drug trip scene is where he’s communicating with the cat, based on an earlier conversation.
Sarah Polley wrote an essay about a meeting with Weinstein and it's about what you'd expect. But she's says she didn't feel like she needed to do anything for him because she had decided she didn't want to be an actor anymore. She's a very good director. Away From Her and The Stories We Tell are both good.
I liked the part where he got shot. That was probably my favorite part of the movie.
He was the only good director the Bourne series ever had.
1999 in general was quite the year for movie releases. Go, Election, The Matrix, Fight Club, The Sixth Sense and The Blair Witch Project spring to mind just of the top of my head. There is one other one I can think of but I’m choosing to leave that one out.
The Simpsons did an episode that clearly was a riff on Go (one story multiple viewpoints) but also used the music from Run Lola Run.
From the article:
I used to have the same issue. I found this handy memory trick helps.
I really love this movie. For the past few years, I’ve expected we will find out that Harvey Weinstein torpedoed Sarah Polley’s career. But I’ll never figure out how Taye Diggs didn’t become a massive star as a result of this movie.
Go is a classic, but you are SO WRONG on Simon. His character is literally so annoying he almost ruins the movie.
This was a pretty good movie, but the best part wasn't Vegas because Timothy Olyphant wasn't in that part. Timothy Olyphant is the best thing about every movie or TV show that he's in.
Haven’t seen it since probably 2003, but it was sincerely one of my favorite movies of 1999. Though I feel like this was supposed to be a “raver culture has arrived in the mainstream” moment and it never really did.
The stench of the undead does tend to... Linger.
I think the detective really, really wanted for Fat Frankie to be guilty of killing Keith so that her accidental killing of him would be “justified”. After Chantal reveals that they were all in Canada it confirms the detective’s theory that they killed Keith. Therefore, the detective killed an innocent (sort of) man.
Something I just found out (don’t think I was mentioned): April’s twin wasn’t played by actress Phoebe Tyers, but her real life identical twin Claire Tyers.
