I think I’ll watch Wilderpeople tonight.

[AniNate]

I really should watch Columbus. Loving Hammock's score for it.

So I watched the newest episode of South Park today, and had it not been for the return of political humor, it’d be a good episode.

South Park lost me in the middle of last season. I tried out this season and quit after the Video Game product placement episode.

I fixed my baby’s Xbox for £15 instead of the £99 Billie Gates tried to charge me and somebody at work gave us all something called Cupheads for free. Fuck Bill Gates forever and always.

I've heard quite a few good things about Cuphead.

She did say once that that movie was the one and only time she ever made a film just for the paycheck.

Doesn't surprise me. She hasn't been in a blockbuster before or after, and for good reason, I'd presume. 

[Jake Gittes]

I'm guessing Bay talked her into doing it with his Coen fanboyism in addition to the paycheck.

Louis C.K is well-liked?

For the life of me I do not understand the streetcorner doomsayer mentality fanboys have when a movie's marketing and/or critic screening campaigns don't go quite the way they had wanted them to go. A certain superhero movie coming out next week made me think about this, but it's something I deal with in the Pixar fandom too. Whether a movie actually sucks/flops or not, what do you accomplish by playing Chicken Little before you know for sure? It's just as obnoxious as the "fuck the critics" mindset.

Obsessive fanboism in general is toxic (for the fanboy first and foremost). Depending your hapiness/well-being to the reception of a film is kinda pathetic.

We're all fans of something. If it makes you happy and brings meaning to your life, by all means, support it. But people ought to be able to draw a line where it starts becoming a source for negative thoughts and not take them out on others.

I agree 100%.

It is great until your life starts depending on it. Then you have lost the balance.

We've been stuck at the first level for 40 minutes. It looks amazing though.
