you went to school with Opie???
and you're pushing 39?
Junior high and HS. We played freshman and sophmore football together too. He quit after that to focus on acting and I quit after that to focus basketball. His decision worked out for him. Interestingly, he was a chubby lineman in those days, so it was funny seeing him as an in-shape linebacker in Remember the Titans.
And I'm not pushing 39. Been 39. Now pushing 40. Hard.

This actually makes a lot of sense.Post it in spoilers, baby pa. Interested to read this as I just saw the film recently.
Has anybody seen Anamalisa yet? I learned some stuff through another movie board that turned that movie on its side for me. WIIIIIILLLLDDD theory of what went down, that totally changed my outlook of the film. I need somebody in here that's also seen it to confirm it's craziness. Anyways it's a very well made film. It's a Charlie Kaufman creation so right off the bat, you know it's gonna be bizarre as hell. I don't wanna spoil anything but it's most likely gonna win an Oscar so go see it for yourself. 6.8/8
Slightly long read. If you don't wanna sort through it all, just scroll to the bottom and read the last line. Mind blown. pun intended.Alright, here is the blow-out for Anomalisa, and I must say...what a brilliantly deceptive film to watch that will indeed play with your very own emotions, and certainly after this revelation it might make a lot of you go back and rethink that intimate sex scene packed with compassion as a complete lie for a way more raunchy and twisted truth behind our lonely character.
Michael holds onto old letters from Bella from back when they were together, and he often reads them to re-visualize the memories he's had with her, plagued with guilt over why he left her - but he still wants her under more lusty conditions.
At the hotel Michael decides to call her up and reunite in the bar, and they do. Michael fails miserably in achieving sex, and the aftermath he trails himself to that "toy store" that the taxi driver told him about at the beginning of the movie. It turns out Michael was recommended to a sex shop...could this have been a misunderstanding on the taxi driver's part, or could it have been where Michael wanted to go all along?
In the sex shop Michael gazes up at a Japanese sex doll, and he's mesmerized by its rustic imperfections. The most prominent and important detail about this doll Michael finds most beautiful is the cracks on the right side of its face, next to its eye. Michael gasps and says "it's so pretty", the first time we caught Michael in the entire film to be taken away by something he finds beautiful. He buys this doll.
Michael goes back to his hotel room and takes a shower to prepare himself for a hot one with the doll he just purchased. He looks into the mirror and goes into a mode of hysteria and runs around the hallway causing a ruckus to all the other guests.
Lisa shows up for the first time.
Michael is taken away by Lisa's imperfections, and especially that scar on the right side of her face next to her eye, the same position of the crack on the sex doll's face. Michael exclaims one more time how beautiful he finds its imperfections to be.
Michael lets her sing, and while most of the song Lisa sings is about how girls want to have fun, Japanese lyric was squeezed in between her lines as well.
Lisa explains to Michael how she likes the word "anomaly" and how she feels like she herself is one, and that's because she most certainly is one and not someone that actually exists.
An anomaly is a deviation away from something that is considered normal, and Michael's way of creating one is deviating away from having normal sex with another human being to devising a his ideal woman onto a sex doll, whom of which Lisa also has striking similarities to Bella.
This is Michael's perfect woman, and it's something that does not exist. His perfect woman is a combination of past relationships and his fascination to something as cold and mechanical as a Japanese doll.
The next morning Michael's face falls off and soon he's ready to be back to reality, he goes back to the room which he recalls meeting Lisa and her other friend is no longer infatuated by him but calls him a freak.
Michael goes up for his speech, and he has terrible execution...it's almost like he did not properly prepare the way he was supposed to for talking in front of people, and he fumbles miserably. He was too distracted by his own sexual fantasies to do anything remotely productive on his business trip.
Michael flies back home to his family and he realizes his delusional fantasies are not going to fix his problems. The sex doll which he gave to his son as a gift contains semen - his semen.
His wife resents this site with disgust and yells at Michael that he can do better than that and that he has family that actually care for him.
Michael sits back on the stair steps looking back at the doll one last time as it sings its Japanese tune. The sex doll is the only other thing in the entire film besides Lisa to have a female voice, and that's because that sex doll was Lisa.
As the doll's lullaby comes to a close Michael imagines Lisa's voice one last time, and in a bright dreamlike reality, Lisa explains how amazing her time was with Michael and writes on the same parchment of the letters Michael held from Bella.
Plot revelation: a man has a wet dream of the perfect woman while having sex with a pleasure doll.
I was curious why his wife exploded at him at the end like that and that explains it perfectly.
