I don't know about falling asleep to but it's an amazing series (as is the followup Smiley's People).

Yeah he honestly really broke my heart. I fucking loved that man. And of course between ultron and justice league its clear that, not only is he a complete piece of shit, but he's lost his touch as well

I didn't say they didn't.

After what a prick he turned out to be, he deserves nothing less.

Natalie Portman with Leon the Professional and then Heat was a pretty strong debut.

Don't know much about her but Ready or Not was a surprisingly fun movie. There's a scene where she screams and it's fantastic.

I was a huge Whedon fan growing up, Buffy being my favorite show of all time.
You know how they say “don’t meet your heroes?”
I met Joss before the avengers came out and it was the most awkward situation ever. He couldn’t be bothered or couldn’t care less. Thanked him for his work an the impact it had on me and he just sighed, signed something, and looked the other way. This was at a comic con ticketed signing. Like it would be one thing if I pulled him off the street (I work in film and tv and have ran into him on studio lots and didn’t say anything because we both were working and it’s just uncomfortable if it isn’t at a meet & greet type situation)..
Oddly some coworkers, girlfriend, and I were at an industry party that same weekend and he was very keen on chatting up my then girlfriend, and by association, me. I couldn’t give less of a fuck by that point. I know the vibe and surroundings were much different but it just made me laugh that he played the role of “ultimate fan boy” to his followers but didn’t have the decency to make conversation while meeting his fans at a signing event that he was very aware of.

Love it, one of my favorites. My only gripe is with the character of 'Drew' - he's such a badly written, very shallow 'bad guy'. Poorly acted too. Other than that I have no complaints about the movie.

So come on all you Hog fans and shake your caboose!
Why did Buffy have the same mascot at both skewls?

Whedon bitched about every script that he wrote that was poorly received and blamed it on the director.
He finally got what he deserved.
Buffy, Alien, Storm’s horrible line about what happens to lightening when it hits a toad.

‘The vast of night’ would be good for this. It’s about a guy at a radio station and a girl on a switch board in a small town who maybe pick up an alien signal. Lots of long dialogue sections with not huge amounts of visual activity. I’ve listened to it in bed and it could almost be a radio play

Little Bitch Hanky did 1953’s Climb ‘Em if you Got ‘Em and then immediately did Puberty’s Arrow, then was throat-slashed at the premiere for the latter.

Maybe something like The Man From Earth or Locke. Slow movies, mostly conversations, no screaming or sudden loud sounds.

> No. I make a legitimate post about a film I think people may be interested in and because I don't ramble on enough others don't get to hear about it? What is the reason for this sub then?
This comment of yours is 187 characters long. Just one more sentence of equal length and you'd reached that 300 counter. Doesn't seem entirely unreasonable as a minimum.
If you'd put as much effort into your post as you did typing this comment - which I can't imagine was a lot - you'd be there already.

And you're on a tirade browbeating a thirty year old movie that hit a sweet spot in the market when it came out but would never get made today.
This is fairly obvious to everyone but you, and this original post has no need for existing.
