The Big Short -- 9/10
Been waiting to see this and it came yesterday as my Netflix movie so I watched it right away. I really enjoyed it and I liked how they explained things so you can understand what the f was going on. Good acting and lots of humor; kinda reminded me of "Wolf of Wall Street" in that way, though not as vulgar, lol.
I didn't get a blatent "fuck capitalism" message from it that I kinda thought I would which I appreciated. It really is sad though how fucking scummy and stupid (more of the former, I think) so many people were to make this happen. I just don't get the whole "fuck over other people any time you can" mentality; guess it was the way I was raised.
Anyway, very good movie; see it if you haven't!
Star Wars Episode 7 - 7/10
.. the major issue I have with it is that the moviewas soooo similar to theblatantly ripped off most idea from the original movies while being nothing like them.
btw, i forgot to mention:
you really want to catch the latest Person Of Interest episode - Root and Shaw have a lezbo scene.
13000/10
I looked up "Root and shaw lezbo scene"
Got this
See, I don't think they explained things enough. I understand the concept of what went on, but I don't think they conveyed it very well. Also, for a guy that is willing to starve himself for a character, Bale could have spent a few hours learning to pretend to drum better.
I'll watch it for sure when I get the chance. I've always been a huge fan and I live around 3 miles from their Emeryville compound. I have never worked up the courage to walk up to their receptionist and ask about employment opportunities, though.Pixar story 10/10
Informative documentary to see.
Watched last night:The movie was released 1981 in Australia and 1982 in the US, which might be why you are seeing both dates. As for 1997, that just looks to be when the DVD was released. The multiple titles are because the studio dropped the Mad Max 2 moniker in some regions because the original wasn't well known outside of Australia, but it's the same movie.
It's my personal favorite of the series by a long shot.

Meh....
Don't think this has been posted yet - three and a half minutes of soft core lesbian lovin'.No, no, no... There's a full PG-13 sex scene out there. Is it a spoiler if I saw which episode it's from?
The one that aired this past Monday, May 16.
The "aside" explanations were okay but I found that they took away from the movie a bit. For me, the in-conversation explanations were adequate. But I know more about this crap than average people -- which is sad because I don't know much.
they did a similar film a couple years back, where they tried to stick to professional terminology throughout - although there is *one* scene which was put in for the sole purpose of explaining what was going on.
the film is called Margin Call. it's absolutely horrid. i say, try to watch it, and you will appreciate The Big Short much more.
Frasier [8/10]: IIRC, this sitcom started when cartoons were over. In my teens, this seemed boring as hell and I always changed the channel or turned off the TV. I decided to give it a go as an adult, thanks to Netflix. I enjoy it a lot. All the humor holds up. This started filming 1994. That's why my family immigrated to US.
Man what a time I live in. My family was so poor back then. It's surreal to watch this show back in time and actually relate to the humor as a upper/middle class today.
The Big Short [8/10]: The movie concisely explained to me very well what was happening. What an absolute joke this entire Wall St. is. This entire movie proved none of the folks in it provided ANY value to society or any tangible work. Yet they walked away with hundreds of millions of dollars. Kudos to them for sticking it to the banks though. I also liked seeing how people in this industry do their job. It was cool to see how they did real market research by walking around to realize that there was a real-estate bubble brewing.
Wolf Worrior 3/10 Bad movie about Chinese Special Forces. Horrible script.
