Random Social Chit-Chat v. Illuminati Confirmed

you know what sucks? waiting for hulu to release the next episode of Misfits, then watching it only to find out it sucks balls. And is starting to be written the same way lost is, based more upon limitations of the set, no real plan of action on the part of the writers, pretty much just writing the next episode to pay for the next 7 gram rock. Fuck Hulu sometimes.

I noticed the main thing I don't like about movies is that I then want stuff that is never going to happen. Like where am I going to get a car that has time travel capabilities or befriend a cool, albeit slightly rude, alien voiced by Seth Rogen? I just don't see either of those things happening anytime soon.



I already liked Christian Bale from the 2 Batman's, the Fighter, and American Psycho, but he takes dedication to a whole new level in The Machinist. I couldn't believe that was him for most of the movie. When I was struggling a few years ago, I dropped to around 120-125lbs and I felt sickly skinny then, but I'm only 5'8". Bale is 6'3" and he dropped to 120 for that role; disgusting.
 
The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret, Hank Moody, Walter White & SexyTits

Californication is about a guy who fucks his wife’s boyfriend’s underage daughter… and his daughter’s boyfriends mom… and his daughter’s teacher… not to mention ex-girlfriends of both directors he collaborates with throughout the series… just to name a few… all accidentally, of course… we are supposed to believe a never ending series of co-incidences… plausibility is apparently irrelevant…

Weeds is about a widower with two kids who turns to selling weed in order to pay the bills… later in the series she marries a Mexican drug lord… and a DEA agent...

Breaking Bad is about a cancer-ridden high school science teacher with a disabled son and a baby on the way, who turns to cooking meth to pay the medical bills… did I mention his brother is in the DEA?

Finally, perhaps the most retarded show to ever get a second season, The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret – as the title implies – follows a man who gets himself into a variety of compromising situations. Basically it’s a piss-take, alternating forced-drama for absurd comedy. Unfortunately it’s not much more than that. There is no commentary beyond what is revealed in the title. In fact, the show is absolutely retarded. The only thing that separates it from Weeds and Californication is that is intentionally retarded; it is self-aware shit. Having said all that, there are some genuinely funny moments, and - personally - I just can’t get enough of David Cross.

(Breaking Bad doesn’t make any sense any more. It’s fucking stupid. I don’t want to watch that annoying bitch wife of Walt’s buying a fucking carwash. Or Hank collecting rocks. The show has seriously turned to shit. Californication, on the other hand, was bad from day one... and don’t get me started on Weeds. I would prefer to have a cactus shoved up my ass then watch another episode of that abortion.)

Thoughts? Who else likes this piece of shit?

You can make that 14. In case you were wondering what they were, but you didn't really feel like asking because you didn't really care that much:

1) American Psycho
2) 500 Days of Summer
3) Back to the Future
4) Friday the 13th Part III
5) Friday the 13th Part IV (fyi the one with the most nudity ;) )
6) Menace II Society
7) Justin Bieber: Never Say Never (this kid literally, LITERALLY, makes girls cry by looking at them or being within eyesight. His power is kind of scary. The force is strong with this one )
8 ) Michael Clayton (Tom Wilkinson gave a great performance in this movie)
9) Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (I set myself for disappointment, so I actually ended up enjoying it...for the most part. Some scenes though...I'm not even going to get into it. Monkey tree swinging? Surviving a nuke in a fridge? Didn't have to include that stuff....)
10) Paul (I really enjoyed this movie. I really want a fun alien friend :( I also really, really want to have sex with Kristen Wiig. Or hang out with her)
11) Back to the Future Part II
12) Shutter Island (Leo is awesome)
13) The Machinist (My gosh Christian Bale's dedication to that role was fucking unbelievable. That seems very unhealthy to lose THAT much weight. IMDB says he took up smoking to help curb his appetite. Only had heard the title mentioned before, didn't know what to expect. Pretty intense film)
14) Take Me Home Tonight (Ease down a bit after watching the previous two films, which I had watched back to back. This was funnier than I thought it would be. )


Favorite lines:

Try getting a reservation at Dorsia now you fucking stupid bastard!

Roads? Where we're going we won't need roads

I'm on a mission from God!
-Tell him you failed *shoots him*


Not sure on the next film I'm going to watch...O Brother Where Art Thou is a strong possibility

Is it weird that I've never seen an Indiana Jones movie and I don't care to at all?
Click to expand...

Yes, that is weird.

I did not care much for the new one. The earlier movies made me want to be an archaeologist when I was a little kid, until I later found out it was mainly reading and slowly digging out bones and stuff. You've likely seen scenes parodied/referenced in a number of TV shows and movies and not even known it or didn't get to fully appreciate the reference.

I suppose if you skipped Temple of Doom that wouldn't be too awful, but you should definitely at least check out Raiders of the Lost Ark or Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. The movies don't reference each other (save for a brief 2 second moment in the Last Crusade) so it doesn't matter which order you watch them in.


What do you think of Harrison Ford then? I liked the original Star Wars and all, but he'd be just another actor to me if he wasn't actually Indiana Jones who plays an actor in real life.
 
yeah with raiders they were sussing out the genre, so there's more depth there. then came temple, in which they decided the cartoony, b-grade feel. it has its moments, but overall it fizzled a bit. they perfected the formula in crusade with the addition of connery. as for kingdom.... well i love cate, and genuinely believe she is the best actor working big film today. i like the whole sci-fi element which is strongly panned. i don't even mind the new equivalent of jumping the shark (the fridge, i won't way what it is if you haven't seen it, avoiding any spoilers here). even that transformers guy wasn't a total waste to me.... what i didn't like were the very very cheap thrills. ninja caver natives... vine swinging... the perpetual doom just a c--- hair away constantly were just distracting. not exciting or entertaining in the least. i particularly recall an ancient staircase they needed to use but it inexplicably started to retract and so they had to run.... shit like this just seem so arbitrarily and extraneously just tacked on in the last minute.

I absolutely hated the last Indiana Jones movie. To me it just ruined all my childhood memories. I don't get why they decided to go all sci-fi with the story. To me Indiana Jones has always been finding some myth in history, and then discovering some sort of religious/historical truth behind that mythology. Bringing a sci-fi element into just ruined the whole supernatural feel to it. And the good ones always involved Nazis of course. Russians just don't make good villains compared with Nazis IMO.
 
I've also never seen Blade Runner :(

It was on Netflix Instant for a while. I went to go watch it a few nights ago, but to my dismay it was already taken down. I then watched Shutter Island instead.
