Oh I'm sorry, Did I Break Your Conversation........Well Allow Me A Movie Thread by S&T

Obviously that's left open to interpretation. 
The look on their faces reflect their realization of "ok... now what?".

They obviously got along well before and if they weren't interrupted by news of Ben's affair, then they could have fallen in love and gotten married. It could also be an entire relationship and/or marriage summed up in a few moments. The excitement of the first phase, the still happy contentment of the second shot, then the final shot of them not smiling, not looking at each other, just... there. 

Plus the bus is taking them to an unknown location, off into the unknown of life. Ben still doesn't know what she's going to do. She's still very young. She couldn't ever go back to her parents, Ben doesn't have a job or home of his own. 

So what happened to them can't be answered for sure, but the best answer is it's unknown.

Afternoon reading: Review: Snitch - Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson finally relies on acting skill over muscles and strength in a decent first quarter film about the lengths we go for family - http://wp.me/p2CCWq-2G4
 
Anyone watch Scandal on ABC? I originally started watching it because Kerry Washington was headlining the show & wanted it to get good ratings (not enough sisters in that position on television or executive producing for that matter - Shonda Rhimes). The show is unbelievable but it's drawn my wife & I in.

I love beautiful women that dress well, especially in business attire... If your a Kerry Washington fan, here are photos for every outfit she has worn on the show... :lol :smokin

This looks interesting but looks like a good cable movie, it's called Disconnect. The cast has Jason Bateman, Hope Davis, Frank Grillo, Michael Nyqvist, Paula Patton, Andrea Riseborough, Alexander Skarsgard, and Max Thieriot.






Here's a new one from Aaron Eckhart, also starring Olga Kurylenko (Magic City, Quantum of Solace) called Erased.

So Antoine Fuqua originally had Eminem ready to star in Southpaw the boxing drama - now that it finally got picked up - Eminem is out and, Fuqua is looking at Jeremy Renner, Bradley Cooper or Ryan Gosling to star in the film.

If he wants an average movie, go with Renner


Renner is literally the definition of forgettable. "The Town" was his best role to me.

Gosling could do it I'd say, but I would love to see Bradley Cooper in a role like that...just to see if he has that type of versatility
 
Erased seems like Unknown with Liam or that other flick with Affleck.

Disconnect seems like those movies with the same format Crash had but more darker and ****** up.

Some of those honest movie titles were funny :lol

Gonna start a new show tonight....Mad Men or The Shield?


Decided to hold off on a new show for a while...Currently watching The Following and The Americans and I have quite a few blu's that I've bought and haven't even watched so that's on the agenda! Gonna start it off with Argo tonight!
Whenever you do decide to watch one, go with The Shield. Everything about it is amazing.
 
Go with Mad Men because you can catch up and watch the show live. Plus it's excellent.
 
When did Bradley Cooper become an excellent actor? Was it Silver Linings? Was he that good in Limitless? I havent seen anything of his other than the Hangover movies and Midnight Meat Train :lol Dont tell me what I need to see, I already know.

Lebowski, man. That movie is something else. Jeff Bridges is brilliant. He IS the Dude.

I didn't like the movie the first time I saw it but my brother convinced me to watch it again & I liked it. I like almost everything Jeff Bridges has been in. Also the Coens brothers have such a diverse filmography... Love their work...
 
I never thought much of Cooper, either (I was especially pissed when he was suppose to play the lead role in Gatsby), but he really was pretty great in Silver Linings.

I am curious to see how he handles this.
Serena is an upcoming film based upon the novel by American author Ron Rash. Directed by Susanne Bier, the film stars Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper as newlyweds Serena and George Pemberton.The film is set in Depression-Era North Carolina, and follows their struggles, as the future of George's timber empire becomes complicated when it is learned that his wife Serena, cannot bear children.
Suppose to be super dark and violent. I'm expecting a Revolutionary Road/Blue Valentine kind of story. Can he play that well?

Sidebar: Anybody seen Sound of My Voice with old girl from Another Earth yet?

Cooper is slightly above average, slightly. Heavy emphasis on slightly. So it's not a surprise he can sort of get top billing all of sudden and a lot of praise given the right story and cast put around him. When I think of Limitless he reminds me of Affleck at times cuz his performance was nothing to rave about but nothing to rage about either. He's just there in a lot of movies. He's the guy at times with the filler/typical lines to keep the story going or set up dynamic character. When he's the main guy or supporting he portrays a certain type very well. He's really good in SLP but not shockingly amazing that I thought he wasn't capable of that.

However, I can see him easily being switched out with similar actors that do the same thing or way better actors who can do the same thing when they're not even trying and the movies won't miss a beat. He's good and famous now but not in the same way say Gosling was getting raved about the past few years, especially all last year.

Carnage was a ridiculous, uncomfortable laugh riot.

Much like the Cowans, I kept trying to leave. But for no real reason, I had to stick around. :lol

Waltz. :smokin

everyone I've told to watch the film, or lent the blu to has loved it, glad you enjoyed it.

People are weary because it's Polanski and takes place all in one area, but it's really some great writing and acting
 
I am thoroughly convinced that the reason Argo is so highly acclaimed is because of what the film is portraying. *shrug*
