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.

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

schlump it's good fun and, as hm says, they are good on screen together (i like emily blunt too). it has some good ideas which are not explored as fully as they should be but i actually found it thought provoking.

i enjoyed adjustment bureau. roger from mad men is also in it getting up to some science fictional tricks.
― estela, Tuesday, 2 August 2011 22:41 (twelve years ago) link
maybe you're a shitty cameraman !
― conrad, Tuesday, 2 August 2011 22:41 (twelve years ago) link
the romance is the weirdest & most real thing about it. which is probably the point but if it was they didn't push it far enough.
it's a little like punch drunk love, actually.
― jed_, Tuesday, 2 August 2011 22:42 (twelve years ago) link
I love that in order to somehow make a non-point they inject file footage of him from a movie
and, not knowing they were going to do this, he still keeps his cool but burns them just enough with the "shitty cameraman" line
― mh, Tuesday, 2 August 2011 22:42 (twelve years ago) link
Also, "do you think job insecurity is what makes me work hard?" is the best line
I mean, really, people who go on about job security and joking about how to get it are really the worst people.

Wow who the hell were those cocks interviewing him/the teachers? Assholes. And A+ Damon.

hahaha, any fool knows job insecurity makes you slack off big time. why should I invest any effort when you can fire me for any old bullshit reason?

Libertarians make me so fucking mad. I was pretty much a libertarian from age like 15 to 19. Took exactly one college sociology class to straighten me out. Just grown adults living in this state of arrested development because they can't empathize for anyone who isn't in their shoes. It's a total non-shocker that libertarians have rallys on places heavily populated by socially inept shut ins like the World Of Warcraft playing field.
― james blood ulver (Whiney G. Weingarten), Wednesday, 3 August 2011 15:09 (twelve years ago) link
An illustrative story, perhaps:
So yesterday, a patron, regular or summer school student here, comes to the desk and heads over to the self-checkout machine to check out a book, and is failing at it. I've seen some people confused by the machine first time through but this guy is failing, period -- getting everything wrong. I go to help him, he mentions he's 'really high right now' and we eventually get his book checked out to him.
Said book: The Fountainhead

i got in an argument with a libertarian once and I was like, "You know like just being born black in this country means you're denied economic opportunities right and left." And his example of the apparently always-present ability to pull yourself up from your bootstraps and make it anyway was Andre 3000, lol

The funny thing is that he's right, based on the simple inability to hold a two- or three-shot and the dutch angle, dude IS a shitty cameraman.
