If you’re one to get comfortably bogged down with all that semantics then maybe you shouldn’t bother yourself with Tarantino. Maybe even forget cinema altogether :/

I guess the title Day of the Jackal was already taken?

This... is an attitude I sincerely respect.

The seats fly now?

Seriously? Not one jab at “but the sand gets everywhere”? 

Did they pluck this guy straight out of summer school?

Frank Drebin: “I have a particular set of skills... in fact, here he comes now... I’d like you to meet Trevor Setofskills.”

I actually enjoy Nolan’s brand of humour.

NO!

Then there’s Tom Cruise in Jerry Maguire, and yet we still end up rooting for him. Somehow. But that’s just a great script.

Yup. And let’s add to that Tom Cruise in Jerry Maguire. Even though he starts out even trying to be a better person (with his ‘mission statement’) he is a bit damaged (incapable of being alone). 

I loved The Wedding Guest. Can’t wait for this one!

He and Sissy are magnetic in In The Bedroom, but I so enjoy his character arc in Shakespeare In Love, from oligarch-esque to “everyone be quite, art is happening!”

I watched the whole thing (maybe 15 minutes in total) on uTube yesterday... a few seconds before Pugh, a tightly wrapped up t-shirt was thrown onstage as well, it didn’t hit anyone, but Zendaya picked it up, signed it, and gave it back. The only difference was this didn’t actually hit her, so that a few seconds later…

Agreed. But to me it’s more than a rom-com, in fact I wouldn’t even think of that genre so much. It’s also much more than the ‘Ebenezer Scrooge gets a heart’ trope, which honestly surprised me. To me all the little storylines had equal weight, and like the wine analogy, every viewing I taste different things. I mean,…

Just going by that header pic alone, if that Jacob dude on the far left is subtly trying to audition for the next James Bond, I’d be pretty ok with that.

WELL said. Even his misses are noteworthy. If any director had any ONE of those ‘misses’ in the portfolio, they should/could be so proud, if not could happily retire.

Also REV., with Olivia Coleman and Tom Hollander is kinda special.
