Haven’t listened to the episode yet, but I’ve always been in the gently caress Garden State camp. I’ve never hated someone quite as much as I hated Natalie Portman’s lovely character in that movie.

Natalie Portman listened to a Zach Braff song in a waiting room, and then they danced on some farm equipment in the rain. I think it took place in New Jersey, but I may be wrong.

Garden State is fun to dunk on because it’s exactly the type of dopey saccharine poo poo you’d expect from a 20 something

I was in my teens and I wanting intellectual growth after a childhood of watching "garbage" so yeah I liked Garden State when I saw it. I mean, it came to me at a time when I wanted "DEEP" media, so

Garden State is perfectly fine, but when it came out a lot of people were insufferable about it. And it's cute that Zach Braff thought that Shins song would change anyone's life. If the song had been "King of Carrot Flowers" then I could see it.

One of my favorite threads from 2004/2005, "Add Inappropriate Soundtracks to Movies", dropped Linkin Park's "Crawling" in its place. It was delightful.

Billy Gnosis posted:Andrew seems to have revealed February's patreon episode on Twitter Man of Steel I'm really interested to see what the boys have to say about it, it sounds like their opinions have soured on it since its release. I think the first twenty minutes on Krypton are genuinely alright. Snyder does big CGI spectacle, and that's all that segment is, so it works without coming off as compromised and cartoony. Unfortunately, the rest of the movie is a real mess. Amy Adams could be entirely excised from the movie, but part of that is because she has an embarrassingly bad script. The editing takes a nosedive in the last 45 minutes too. I noticed certain establishing shots were completely missing, and that's even before the horribly disorienting final fight. Michael Shannon is hilariously evil, though, and I dig that. Coheed and Camembert fucked around with this message at 12:54 on Jan 31, 2018 |

I know the term Manic Pixie Dream Girl first came about when describing Kirsten Dunst in Elizabethtown, but I think Natalie Portman is patient zero for the term before the term actually came about.

It's my personal headcanon that Michael Caine loves TMNT and probably has the best taste in those films and cartoons

I've never wanted a WHM movie creation to be real quite as much as "The Iron Butt" Eric Szyszka in "Too Close to Dracula" is a close second
