How Do We Feel About Matt Damon?

would kill to see malicks good will hunting

I want malick to direct it but w/ van sant's ending

i can not even imagine

CASEY AFFLECK (V.O.): Where is it that we were together? Who were you that I lived with? The brother. The friend. Darkness, light. Strife and love. Are they the workings of one mind? The features of the same face? Oh, my soul. Let me be in you now. Look out through my eyes. Look out at the things you made. All things shining. And let's get off mothers. 'Cause I just got off yours.

malick would have shot 400 hrs of footage and the main character would be the ponytail dude from the bar

mice in the hallways flies on the chalkboard

feel like someone should devote themselves to fictionalizing alternate histories like this use the internet to spread them as truth then revel themselves 30 years later to be the originator of most of mankinds misconceptions and the greatest artist of all time

lol max

CLOSE ON rats on garbage can

WILL (off-screen): Do you like apples?

CUT TO:

EXT. WILL'S HOUSE. DAY.

so tempted to go full custos w/ this shit

tbf the only thing preventing me is that i can barely remember anything that happens in good will hunting

hey so i liked the adjustment bureau!

i dont think anyone else will, its very, very corny, but i dunno, everyone was so charming, and its about true love!

i had low expectations, too

and General Zod is in it.

yeah i mean cmon, great cast, funny premise, tons of jokes, totally corny ending, how can you go wrong

once it got going it was quite good apart from the stuff about the adjustment bureau

i like the idea that heaven is just a massive, awful bureaucracy

heaven can wait had that premise sorta

that's a movie i watched like 30 times on cable when i was a kid

and that albert brooks movie too i guess

HOW DID I MISS THIS THREAD?

I love Matt Damon.

i wanted it to be more sinister

it was v light

Oh my goodness, he's gonna be in We Bought a Zoo?!??

Thank u, imdb, thank u.

goddamn u to hell max

IT WASNT LIGHT IT WAS DEAD

aw morbs it was about tru love

MAX, EVERY DiCraprio/Damon thriller IS ABOUT TRUE LOVE, which SUCKS!!!

the "funny premise" WAS NOT DONE AS COMEDY.

"'heaven can wait' had that premise sorta"

Stamp seems merely a slightly more malevolent celestial messenger than the avuncular Claude Rains-James Mason model, and the Adjustment Bureau members' physical and telepathic limits remain murky, as does the question of whether they use the main reading room of the 42nd Street library as a base only during overnight hours.

btw, can u tell in that review how I avoided saying Anthony Mackie was playing a Magic Negro just cuz i didnt want to deal with ppl who'd never heard the term?

Bagger Vance, the adjustment bureaucrat with a heart of gold

for a movie that wasnt a comedy there were a lot of jokes!

im not really even defending it, it was pretty inconsequential, which i liked about it

q: do u like apples?

a: I TOTALLY LIKE APPLES!!

q: well i got her number how do u like THEM APPLES!

a: THANK YOU I TOTALLY LIKE APPLES!!

still so funny

horseshoe i'm so sad that you hate my most treasured comedy of all time, good will hunting

i know, i am no fun. i didn't realize it was supposed to be funny! as a serious movie, it is super-dumb. maybe i'll give it another try...i'm totally not going to, though.

as long as i'm being an asshole, i might as well say i never thought "how do you like them apples" was that funny, what with the labored "do you like apples?" setup, i mean, who says that?

i should have talked about the adjustment bureau in the romcom thread

NO

apples derail is all-time. made my day.

HOW DID I MISS THIS THREAD?

I love Matt Damon.

^^^was totally thinkin' this as i was scrolling thru.

max, max

So, The Adjustment Bureau.

Offers: Matt Damon running away from Roger Sterling with a hot chick!

Delivers: Matt Damon with a MAGIC HAT going through MAGIC DOORS trying to stop a wedding. Roger Sterling peripheral and uncharasmatic.

Fucking stupid film.

Best line (delivered with horror): "He has a hat!"

Matt Damon in the wild, fires back at trap questions:

I got pretty happy about that I gotta say

despite having genuinely never seen damon in anything i thought i didn't like him but i watched the adjustment bureau last week and now i really love him.

this is in spite of the fact that the AB is not that great but it does have a lovely atmosphere and moves beautifully in spite of the poor plotting/plot holes everywhere!

some down the line good will hunting shit right there. i love the cameraman chipping in in the first place!, with that compelling, inducive stat on 10% of all practitioners being bad at their job.
jed should i be adding TAB to my list of engrossing sub-standard american movies to watch y/n

he and emily blunt are sweet together
