Watch out, Chicago. GAF will be celebrating tonight.

 

[Lancemc]

Entourage... speaking of terrible shows.

Does Cameron know, the concept with wives is to trade up?

Re: tall folk

I was wondering that about Leo and Scorsese. Is Martin that short, or is Leo that tall?

 

[Imperor]

Scorsese's that short.

Who's the Glee redhead? Me likey.

Marty is really short.

I can't think of the actress's name, but she plays Emma, the guidance counselor who hates germs and wears cute clothes and pines after the glee club leader teacher guy, and speaks in this wimpy little girl voice that drives me bat-shit crazy.

the one that is stuck on Glee teacher

 

[corianderstem]

Jemma Mays? I think that's her name. I can't stand her chacter.

Actually, the only adult character I like on Glee is Jane Lynch's character.

Jemma Mays? I think that's her name. I can't stand her chacter.

Well then I wouldn't mind getting lost in the thicket of that Mays, if you get my meaning.

 

[Lancemc]

So they've given out TWO awards in the last 25 minutes, right? Holy fuck, no wonder nobody can stand watching these things.

 

[corianderstem]

Mike Tyson? Yeah, let's give the violent, crazy guy more publicity.

classic example of difference between men's and women's communicating skills

Reese and her chin looks beautiful tonight. I love her dress.

 

[deep]

I wish they would play that Phil Collins song - now (bam!)

 

[Imperor]

Wow. Fuck The Hangover. Funny the first time you see it, insufferable every time after.

 

[corianderstem]

Where's Zach Galapagosinafkis?

 

[ramblin rose]

Wow, I didn't see that coming.

 

[Lancemc]

Wow. Fuck The Hangover. Funny the first time you see it, insufferable every time after.

Like most modern "comedies"? Yeah, I imagine it is.

she is on team Leno.

Once was plenty, although I laughed pretty hard watching it. I'm actually glad it won over the others.

 

[deep]

Good to see Tyson back on top!

his documentary (Toback) was pretty good too.

 

[Imperor]

I've been meaning to see that Tyson doc. Heard great things.

Suppose you're right, although I think Anchorman and 40 Year Old Virgin hold up even despite overquoting.

It gets worse and worse every time. Give me %00 [sic] Days of Summer over the rest of those.

 

[corianderstem]

Ha. I liked that one more than I was expecting, but I didn't think it was all that funny to be lumped into a comedy category.

 

[Lancemc]

I've never rewatched Anchorman, so I can't say. Virgin gets progressively less funny every time, but it's still one of the more successful recent ones in that regard. A big problem with comedies this decade has been a complete lack of storytelling, in favor of straight gags and improvised goof-offery, which can be funny the first time, but it's not a sustainable work of comedy by any means.

 

[corianderstem]

Ah-vuh-duh?

 

[deep]

The King of Comedy - might be worth a rewatch

clever and funny

 

[corianderstem]

That's been in my Netflix queue forever ....... or maybe I already saw it and just forgot? Which must not say much for what I thought about it.

 

[Thora]

Yeah, I'm one of those few people who haven't seen Avatar, Ahhnuld, and I don't mind saying it.

 

[Imperor]

Good lord. Avatar looks more stupid with every promo I see.

Good points there, although I disagree on Virgin getting less funny. It doesn't get more funny, but I always get a kick out of it.
