Nope.

I shall!

Well I would call this movie a LOT of things, not all of them good, but “Just another MCU movie” isn’t one of them. If anything it reminded me of, of all things, David Lynch’s Dune. It’s alternately charming and boring, beautiful and overlong, thoughtful and kind of stupid. It has the makings of the first cult MCU…

Bella Thorne sucks & made life exponentially harder for sex workers everywhere. Also she can’t rap. Or act. She sucks.

It was a top 10 hit & classic rock radio staple long before The Sopranos. I remember it being pretty prominently being used in an episode of Scrubs, and it gets played during every San Francisco Giants game. The Sopranos skyrocketed it into the pantheon of all-time classic rock songs but it definitely wasn’t some deep…

I was just watching Titanic with my daughter & explained to her that the shock of the tragedy is what inspired international laws about having enough lifeboats for every person on a ship from that time on. It’s really sad that it takes a tragedy for people to take totally easy, reasonable steps to ensure safety.

Yeah yeah, I know, screw him anyway.

I love that the entire internet turned on even his MCU character after he fumbled the bag so badly in Infinity War.

Anna Faris is really amazing. She needs a better agent. An absolutely fearless actress. I don’t get shocked by scenes in films very often but she had one line in Observe and Report (Why you stopping?!”) that made me audibly gasp in the theater. She should be at the same level of Ryan Reynolds & Seth Rogen right now.

I read that statement and at first thought people were overreacting, before I knew the context of the “healthy daughter” thing. Fucking gross as hell.

I have to say, I have a hell of a lot of respect for her. She couldn’t get back her masters so she went out and made them all but worthless. Power move.

I didn’t take that as black humor exactly. Yes, the world doesn’t change that much, capitalism wins, but I took the ending as Don learning to accept the world as it was and try to find some actual joy in it. I truly want to believe that, at the end, he moved back to New York, wrote the Coca-Cola ad campaign to end all…

Ohhh, poor him!!!

Oh, that would have been a great casting choice!

Well, then make a better movie than Not Fade Away, aside from that one great James Gandolfini scene.

It was still a very popular song. It had been used on plenty of TV shows and movies before The Sopranos. But it’ll always be tied to that finale from now on.

That’s really terrible to read. I always wondered what happened to him, I loved his work on Carnivale and Sin City. I hope he continues to do well in life, whether in movies or out of them.

It wouldn’t have been the first song I would think he would play, but it isn’t out of character either. I could easily see him spotting that on a jukebox & saying “Eh, fuck it”.

In hindsight it isn’t too surprising that he did a masterful job of writing a character that can never accept happiness, is it?

They just put sunsets behind standard MCU exposition/fight sequences.
