^ I have some modicum of faith because Leo is in it, but I think this movie is going to be either really good or really bad (nothing in between).

I feel like Gatsby will end up being over-produced and not feel right.

They tried a true and straightforward adaptation... And it was boring as hell.
Go for broke, make it a spectacle, make it an event, I'm on board

It's Baz Luhrmann...I gotta see it eventually, cuz dude's just a super interesting filmmaker.
I know, but let's go with the better movie.

I need to get around to the Hobbit. LOTR was my favorite stuff at the time when they dropped and then when all the hobbit info and production began I just didn't care anymore. I think it's because I like the story of LOTR better.
I'll watch with low expectations and see what comes out of it for me.

I watched it in theaters & it was great on the big screen.
I bought the blu ray & watched it with my family on Friday. My 9 year old son got chocked up a bit when the tiger didn't look back at Pi... He told me he felt so bad for Pi because all he wanted was him to look back...

Be lying if I said I wasn't ready for it to suck, but that movie was great.
You could just feel the tiger's presence through the screen. And that kid owned it all.
I mean when you see pictures of how he performed...they gave him a stick and a tarp and said action.
It's kind of a mind**** to think, M. Night Shyamalan was originally gonna direct it. :x

Man, Elizabeth Winstead killed her role in Smashed, Aaron Paul was pretty damn awesome too. I felt bad for his character at the end 'cause he didn't really get it, and they sort of left it at the fact that she realized he'd never change and they had to part ways. Making a drastic change has to be for yourself and only you.. really good movie.

I just looked this movie up after I heard Doug Benson talk about it on the Doug Loves Movies podcast. Is it a comedy or is it very depressing?
I started watching The House I Live In last night, but I had to shut it off, the truth of it all just got me down...

Havent seen Ganja & Hess, might check it out now that you mentioned it. Is it the 1:50 long video on Youtube?
I Saw the Devil is an excellent film. Byung-hun Lee is great, but Min-sik Choi steals the show as the antagonist. Everything about how he plays the character is perfect. I highly, highly recommend it.
Never happening |II heard rumblings of 28 months later..... Any truth ?

I'd pay to see an R-rated Deadpool movie so long as Ryan Reynolds isn't cast but it looks like it might not happen. As usual, i think those in Hollywood greatly under estimate the audience for this.

And Serve, it's a drama with some small comedic aspects. Deals with alcoholism as you already know..

Well, they left it open ended, that's just how I interpreted it.

I really, really liked Smashed. I wanted to love it, but it kinda felt incomplete. I mean...it's a simple movie. It's her Half Nelson. And that trip they went on was
|I...I just kinda wish it was a little more than just snapshots of those moments. It feels long for such a short movie, but they really needed to show the AA stuff. The actual process of her sobering up. Like I get it if it would've cost too much for all those actors and the time it'd take to shoot that, but it kinda just felt like she bought the sobriety upgrade from The Sims and kept it truckin... And hell, the movie was only 80 min long. You add that, and it just rounds it out, gives it more weight and connects the first part to the rest of the movie better.****, I'm basically just saying it was so good, I wish there was more of it.
There a lot of rooms, a lot of situations, a lot of moments and a lot of relationships that are empty and jagged without alcohol. And sobering up to them can be just as painful as the things you were doing to yourself when you weren't sober.
Ron Swanson and Megan Mullaly killed me, though.
"moist" And them kids.

Yeah that's the one. It's worth it if you want more Duane Jones, if not though... I'm not sure.

you're spot on - Mary Elizabeth Winstead if she was a bit more well known would have gotten an Oscar nomination. She was amazing
