Movies and TV

Going to watch American Hustle today, looks promising.

Who's watching Jean Louis?

 

[Matty]

Both of us. We're watching an illegal download on the TV.

(It's Jean-Louis, hyphenated. Thx.)

 

[MrMonkey]

Matty, you're so baaddd! What's his middle name ..... Jean-Louis-?????

I don't know if anyone on here likes this style of movie, but I watched Byzantium last night, and it was pretty great.

If anyone is in the market for a slowly-paced, moody, beautiful, mother-daughter vampire epic, this is the one you want. Byzantium.

I guess I should also throw in a review for Computer Chess, since it has a major character named Michael Papageorge.

Well, it's weird. Bonus points for sheer weirdness, but the overall experience wasn't very enjoyable. A few great scenes, but a bit too much improvised, uninspiring dialogue and iffy acting. On the other hand, Papageorge.

I'll rate this as the best documentary I've ever seen.

I watched Lars and the Real Girl last night. It was meh, 2.9/5.

I'd like to fok a RealDoll once. I bet the guy who owns the patent could make a killing by having dolls tour the world in RealDollBangBuses.

That was a strange movie btw. Gosling did do good work.

First time I heard of Real Dolls was on Howard Stern years ago when I used to listen to the radio. He fucked one and said it was great.

Really, though, I can't imagine it being all that good. I mean, I can't fucking stand pillow queens.

 

[Matty]

Just as a bucket list kinda thing.

I used to listen to Howard Stern years ago and I remember a real doll phase. My strongest memory of it was when dudeguy - oh shit what is his name now . . . gotta look it up . . . Fred. Okay Fred took the real doll into the bathroom and fucked it. His main comment when he came out was not about how great it was - but how ridiculous he felt coming out of the bathroom and back to his seat with everyone watching him and knowing what he had just done.

That sounded about right to me.

My RealDollBangBus business would be all about confidentiality. Only the bus driver would know that you're a pathetic sack of sexually-repressed bullshit.

Reminds me of the old days of having to rent pornos from the back room of the video store, and then make my way to the cashier in a very ashamed way. Of course you'd have to rent some other titles as well, even if you weren't going to watch them. Because you'd be a "real perv" if that's all you went to the video store for.

So not only do we have the Series Premier of True Detective tonight, we got season premiers of Shameless and Girls. Ep. 2 of Downton Abbey season 4. Along with new episodes of my regular stuff (Simpsons, Family Guy, Watchlist, 60 Minutes).

In about 2 weeks we have gone from fuck-all to watch, to having to carefully strategize the programming so I can fit everything in.

 

[Mudcat]

Looks like they are running back-to-back new episodes of Girls. That is what my listings are indicating (although sometimes my listings lie about that kind of thing).

Watching DA at 9PM and then True Detective 2nd showing at 11PM! That's the plan Muddy!

Anything on 10-11PM worth watching?
