Totally legitimate, and more in keeping with the article than my comment. I first saw Real Sex in my twenties. Had I seen it at 12-15, it would have been the Holy Grail of Boobs.

That show is where boners go to die. The goofy music cues, the forced humor, the fake "naughty" attitude. Real Sex and most other HBO late night shows are to eroticism as Sinbad is to comedy.

See? Ending it right there was perfect! You clearly expressed that Sorkin is God without needlessly underlining it. Spelling it out like in the actual scene just struck me as sort of hammy, detracting from the preceding awesomeness. But I appear to be outnumbered on this point by, roughly, everyone.

I always thought that monologue would have been so much better if he'd ended it after "second guessed." The last 2 sentences seem a bit too neat and over-written.

He was too busy lookin' goooood.

Well, but this thread exists within a larger discussion about the work.  And the thread argues (or seems to) that we should "stop watching his movies."  So I think people have to be able to respond to that by distinguishing between the work and the man without automatically being perceived as rape apologists.  (Not…

I really wanted "the cousin of Frank Ocean's cousin" to end up being Frank Ocean.

Agreed.  I can understand people not liking some of GTC's phrasing, but there's nothing wrong with his basic point.

Bolo's pecs were the (twitchy) connective tissue linking Enter the Dragon with the original Bloodsport.  I don't see how the remake can have any credibility without them.

I saw an interview with Matthew Fox in which he talks about auditioning for Party of Five after Scott Wolf had already been cast.  He started chatting up Scott and — trying to establish some rapport and a sense of inevitability — was all, "So:  wolf, fox?"  This apparently came off as sort of cringe-y and desperate. …

Classic SchmanDerWerff.

I prefer, "Who is this imbecile?  Where is he?"

I've seen the Donner cut recently and had that same reaction.  The Donner cut was better in most respects, but that diner scene made no sense in that context.  The trucker and everyone else in the diner remembered Clark, which they shouldn't have after he spun the earth back.  (In fairness, nothing about the…

He had a pretty tiny role in Crimson Tide, but there's one moment that made me notice and fear him before he got seriously famous.  It's toward the end of the movie, and the two factions of officers are facing off in whatever you call the bridge on a submarine — pistols in each others faces, nuclear war hanging in the…

When reading novels, I often imagine the scenes taking place in various rooms of childhood friends' houses.  I'm certain this is because of that weirdness, which embedded these places in long-term memory and still makes the details pop more than 30 years later.

Want to laugh; awaiting ruling from Patton Oswalt.

Full body cringe every time.  Makes me so embarrassed for all involved.

I don't think Dan's condoning infidelity or saying it should be accepted as a given.  He's like a doctor saying that infidelity is a known risk of the procedure known as marriage.  I think he'd say it's fine for people to have expectations, so long as they recognize that their expectations don't mean that infidelity…

Re-watching the Superman movies with my kids, and I can't believe how great he is in them.
