Agreed, Hugh Grant was good also, even though his roles were always similar to each other.

Lol I'm on that part where Alec Baldwin thinks he's a servant. That and the interviewing part had me rolling.

Matt ends up okay, though. He gets Julie, he lives in Chicago, he's got a good life. I really wish they won at the end of season 3, though... I know it was a better story if they lost, but I wanted it so badly

I'm hoping this new HBO show from Mike Judge about Silicon Valley is good. I've been missing an HBO comedy in my regular rotation of shows. Aside from Bored to Death, I just haven't been able to get into anything they've offered over the last few years. Enlightened, Veep, Girls - none of them have managed to hold my interest.

I saw Need for Speed today. Had low expectations but wanted to see the cars and racing. It was worth my $5. The cars were amazing and the racing was shot well. Movie overall was horrible though.
Finished up True Detective today. Great show. Very happy with that series and the ending. Started a little slow but it was great. I can't get enough of Matt. Hope he continues in his lane and doesn't start doing terrible movies now that he's one of the biggest actors.

^^^Sounds like it could be a more mature, sports version of Entourage, which would be awesome.

Is it supposed to be more of a drama or comedy?

All Star game sounds exactly right. The acting was great, some really great performances. But the whole thing overall, not that memorable or great. Maybe it was because with the cast, and Russell you'd expect something amazing. It felt like a cookie-cutter story that didn't leave a lasting impression like other mob/con-artist/crime movies in the same vein have in the past. Worth a single, solitary viewing.

Not a lot of NTers liked this movie. The script was ok, but the movies is saved by a stellar cast. David O. Russell should've worked a little harder in the editing room to work on the pace & flow of the flick.
If you want, wait for what NTers really loved Scorsese for the Real World generation, Wolf Of Wall St. It's NTs Citizen Kane.

Wolf is no masterpiece but it's an extremely entertaining movie with great performances from Leo and Jonah.
It's not particularly deep but it's a comedy it doesn't need to be

Personally thought it was great. From the performances, to the subtle twists. If anyone can tell me caught the climax the first time around, idk, brilliant powers of perception. The complicated love stories. Use of plot devices. Believability of the relationships. The narration. Costumes in this movie were excellent. Great Deniro cameo. Russle uses so many little quasi-literally techniques to keeping informed on the growth of the characters/progression of the movies. As I've said numerous times, idk what makes a good story to everyone else, but to me that was a damn good movie. After you watch it, if you watch it, I'll explain all the little quasi-literary plot devices.
Btw. It was based on a true story, doesn't make it any better of a story but is pretty cool. It was called 'Abscam'

In addition to music, I listen to a lot of interviews/lectures while working. Here's a great interview with Oscar winner Alfonso Cuaron talking about his upbringing, how he got into film, his view on his work, & the making of Gravity.
