My guy says giving Weinstein a couple handies to get it made was worth it.

You can't be serious. The entire thing is ridiculous. Every character is like a cartoon. Written by two twenty-something boys and it shows.

My Blue Heaven is a guilty pleasure of mine. Who would think to cast Steve Martin as a New York City Italian gangster?

He's not serious. He comes up with another "Greatest Movie Ever Made" every few months.

Your criticism is spot on. That movie came out when I was a boy in my 20's and I loved it, but when you look at it now, it's ridiculous. The same can be said of Rounders.

great movie line + concise-correct explanation of the point of our Bill of Rights/14th Amendment incorporation:

Moranis switching to only off-screen voice-over work a few years after that film cleared the way for Steve Carell's film career.

I actually searched before posting to see the last time I did it, lest I disrespect My Cousin Vinny (or whatever I had last time as the best movie ever made).

I think I have a Broken Arrow thread out there somewhere.

I don't think I've seen Broken Arrow, Travolta's mostly tolerable when cast as mock-fodder. Probably could have cast Nick Cage in Travolta's role. I dunno, maybe Travolta's good in it.

My Cousin Vinny almost perfect.

Good Will Hunting was mildly interesting being in school at the time, can't imagine it holds up. Played more like an after-school special than a feature-film. Maybe that's why they cut the Minnie Driver bar gang-bang scene, a la The Accused/Infinite Jest.

And yet, occasionally brilliance emerges, not unlike the janitorial department at MIT in the Oscar winning classic, Good Will Hunting.

America's youth needs to be protected from this glorification of the Boston townie lifestyle.

In all seriousness, this film is perfectly cast. Everybody from the twink TA to the drunken ginger mechanic friend who has no lines…who would do a better job?

Smarmy sex predator Scandi…stellan skarsgård
Loser little brother…Casey affleck
Closeted psychotherapist…NPC Brit
Hypnotherapist…vaguely middle eastern man
Douche big brother…ben affleck
Plausibly intelligent Boston guy…MAAATTT DAAMONN
Smart, depressed, funny guy…Robin Williams

I didn't have the slightest inkling that Good Will Hunting is unrealistic until Louis CK dissected the movie for me. He's even smarter than Matt Damon in Good Will Hunting!

You are under the impression that growing tomatoes is a time-intensive practice?

It takes like 4 months to save $0.30, so yeah, pretty time intensive.
