I've moved on to Haven. I'm so surprised at how reasonably good it is!

I watched Someone Up There Likes Me last night. It was amusing at times mostly due to Nick Offerman being consistently funny, plus lots of familiar locations in Austin, and an Andrew Bujalski cameo. Otherwise, it was fairly incomprehensible.

couldn't sleep the other night and watched THE BIG FIX, starring Richard Dreyfuss as an ex-hippie private detective! It was not really very good, though it might've been good in someone else's hands. Some good stuff w/ F Murray Abraham as an Abbie Hoffman kinda dude. some good late 70s LA occasions. filmmakers couldn't resist the LA convention center escalators back then!

i will watch pretty much any seventies detective movie... sold!

yeah i mean, a poster like this and i can't resisthttp://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/d9/Big_fix.jpgbonnie bedelia is in it too
― tylerw, Friday, 20 September 2013 17:55 (ten years ago) link
and john lithgow! i dunno, it is kind of like a long episode of columbo, if columbo was played by richard dreyfuss.
Bill Conti on the score

the Joan Rivers doc is fabulous.
if you want an amplified pop-cultural understanding of why wealth-worship is the national religion, sure.
(isn't there one moment where she says something like "Do you think it matters a fuck whether Obama or McCain is president?" Her one ray of light in 30 years)

love/hate? durham county? never heard of either of them. durham county is actually on youtube for free too. or maybe i should watch inspector morse.
― scott seward, Tuesday, 24 September 2013 01:19 (ten years ago) link
you should definitely watch inspector morse.
― ian, Tuesday, 24 September 2013 01:55 (ten years ago) link
this looks completely terrible but i'm kind of a dunst completist so i might have to watch it.

because i am secretly in love with the dunst. i couldn't watch all of melancholia though. i just skipped ahead. too ridiculous of a movie even for me. the dunst looked good in it though. why does she make these movies? must be hard to find good parts out there.
― scott seward, Wednesday, 25 September 2013 19:24 (ten years ago) link
Melancholia is great but it's also LvT so of course she'd take that role

i can never tell if LvT's movies are supposed to be funny or not. i guess that's the mark of a true master. always keep them guessing.

i actualyl was looking for a thread for it because i wanted to talk about how weirded out i was by it, RG's comedy underbite just freaked me the fuck out
I don't really like Ricky Gervais (there, I said it, come and get it) and the info looks horrible
― beautifully, unapologetically plastic (mh), Wednesday, 25 September 2013 20:08 (ten years ago) link
i haven't watched any of his tv shows since the office bc he creeps me out as a person but i kind of want to watch a little of this one just out of morbid curiosity.

there has been tons of gervais talk on the coogan-vs-gervais thread.
― scott seward, Wednesday, 25 September 2013 20:18 (ten years ago) link
derek is just...words fail me. there is no explanation for it. dude had the world in his hand after the office just as borat had the world in his hand after borat. and they both just blew it pretty bad.
― scott seward, Wednesday, 25 September 2013 20:19 (ten years ago) link
SBC: Bruno is very good, and I liked his performance in Hugo. He makes an excellent cartoon villain/preening doofus.
Gervais is dead to me.
― polyphonic, Wednesday, 25 September 2013 20:23 (ten years ago) link
re: Gervais
I liked Extras, and to a lesser extent, Life's Too Short. Derek just screams awful, though.

i will cop to not totally hating "the dictator." it's dumb and nowhere as good or interesting as borat, but some of it made me laugh.
― congratulations (n/a), Wednesday, 25 September 2013 20:25 (ten years ago) link
i dare anyone here to watch more than one episode of derek.
― scott seward, Wednesday, 25 September 2013 20:26 (ten years ago) link
dare-ek
― socki (s1ocki), Wednesday, 25 September 2013 20:26 (ten years ago) link
i couldnt get through more than a couple scenes.
"the dictator" is mostly bad but ben kingsley being in it amazes me
― beautifully, unapologetically plastic (mh), Wednesday, 25 September 2013 20:27 (ten years ago) link
yeah sbc is fine in unrecognizable bad guy roles. this is true. but him and gervais had cache! its so hard to get cache. and now nobody really cares about either of them. i have no doubt that they will have steady employment in the future.
― scott seward, Wednesday, 25 September 2013 20:28 (ten years ago) link
you need to take a long hard look at ben kingsley's imdb page then
