Actually the one thing I liked about the Gone Girl movie was how empty Amy seemed. I really liked that part. I loved the way it was filmed, but I could have just waited for netflix.

Speaking of Netflix, FINALLY saw The Master. Loved it. Pissed I didn't get a chance to see it in the theater.

Caught Nightcrawler last night. That Jake Gyllenhal was great. Movie was entertaining. Don't know if I'll watch it again though. Some parts seemed to drag a bit.

They showed a preview for the new Franco/Rogen flick "The Interview". They are a duo on a popular late night talk show and are asked to interview Kim Jong Un, but the CIA intervenes and asks them to assasinate Kim. Hijinks ensue!

i rewatched eyes wide shut last night.  its sucks to realize that you loved a movie simply for the fact of the name attached.  the acting was good and the visuals in parts were nice . . . but it is not that great of a film.  oh well.  im off to watch barry lyndon on this one day off i have, in a while, but its ok.

who can i chat about birdman with?

Chat away. 

I thought it was excellent.  Loved the soundtrack.  Edward Norton was great.

were you pleased with the ending? it left me feeling... empty? unfulfilled? I don't know. i'm still torn on that bit.

Edward Norton WAS great and Naomi Watts is at her best when she's playing airheaded, disaffected celebs (i.e. huckabees)
nothx

I definitely liked the ending (but I also liked the final scene of the Sopranos).  It left a lot to the imagination and there were a number of different ways to take it - some joyful, some cynical, and yes, some empty.  I thought the ending fit in with the 'feel' of the movie - i.e., some of the unreality.

My wife rented Skelton Twins over the weekend assuming it was a comedy based off the actors in the film, holy shit... one of the most depressing movies I've seen in a very long time.

good.  never before have i heard a more flip flopping review from people, regarding that movie.  i would like to see it, but was not sure whether to waste my time to find it.

Assuming you have a cable provider, I'm pretty sure most services are offering it for $5 or so OnDemand.

Just watched Boyhood and I thought it was great. Stamina for the project is impressive, but end product stands on its own
