She was on Eastbound and Down

yeah just looked at her wiki page and that list of movies...oof! what the hell are half of them? how is that even possible? did she piss people off in hollywood or something?

She makes some weird, sad choices, that's for sure.

god what a great movie xxxp

oh man there is some terrible/awesomely campy movie where she plays a rock musician which you MUST SEE if you haven't already

but did u know they made a REALITY TV SHOW out of it

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llAM-Wv327s

there's no way that reality show wasn't thought up as marketing for her movie, like 'reality shows are hot now, this will be a great way to get eyes on your project' blabbity blah. SO bad.

and it looks like DVD bonus material. a whole season of that? oof.

would like to point out that her backing band on that show was girls against boys

someone should make a movie about making the TV show about the fake band gina was in to promote her movie about being in a band

gina can play herself

the cloud atlas cast is like a whole list of people i wouldn't want to be in any hypothetical movie of 'cloud atlas' in any possible world

What the fuck, Kevin Pollak has a interview series? With dude from "Freaks and Geeks" as his sidekick?

It's a great show too... Lots of great interviews on it.

Over the long term, I think I like Speed Racer more than any of the Matrix movies. (would have put it on my ballot also)

2. Guns are cool

Man, I was watching "Still Bill," and when Cornel West shows up, just to hang, I was, like, there is literally no reason for Cornel West to be in a Bill Withers doc.

oh god, cornel west. bill withers has 10x the intellect of that self-promiting piece of shit. which is obvious from the scene they have together.

there's a similar scene in the documentary "soul power" where don king and muhammad ali are bloviating about whether capitalism and black nationalism are reconciliable and withers is just sitting in the middle, eating his ham and eggs and obviously pretending he is somewhere else.

i guess what i meant to say just above is that while cornel west acts really condescending toward withers, the joke is on him since withers says things that are wiser, more interesting, more perceptive, and more self-knowing in that 90-minute documentary than west has said in an entire career of offerring comment on anything and everything.

brother cornel is cool as hell and has had a lot of cool shit to say in his career.

that is incorrect

he's a professionally useless blowhard

being a self-promoting blowhard doesn't invalidate the cool things he's had to say

interesting how u hate the loud and brash blackman but praise the 'humble' one... the one who perhaps knows his place... hmm...

go fuck yourself

"how interesting"

do i need to show you an amiri baraka tattoo or something before you consider my opinions valid? or is just possible that this particular "brash" black man is a huckster and the so-called "humble" one (who is plenty angry in his own right) is a brilliant one?

or maybe you'd rather hear criticism of west from an Actual Black Person?

amateurist I love you man but I think you just got trolled

yeah maybe. still i'll take the gospel of "cornel west is useless" wherever i am welcome.

love how this thread has petered out into lengthy discussions of Gina Gershon and Cornel West

Petered out? You mean RAMPED UP!!!

*gina gershon jumps out window, cornel west explodes*

i think that happened once really

Just watched North by Northwest. I couldn't stop imagining it redone as a Bourne style thriller - teal and orange, fast cut fistfights, insane car chase, parkour, no-holds-barred love scene on the train. I think it could work.

only if the guy doing the parkour is CGI cary grant

dudes... THE RAID. Instant classic.

Titus? Action?

The play is action!

tbf it's no Measure for Measure

Doing a Die Hard marathon here. The first and second. Awww yeah.

YIPPEEKAYAY

Many a stunt driver had a profitable career at The Globe

Die Hard 2 is underrated. That plane crash is fucking terrifying.

Also, John Amos as the villain!

I got Inception for Christmas.

Parents: "I remember you talking about this movie a lot"

WTG ILX

I have Inception and like it and watch it occasionally!

I don't want to remember if I liked it

What, because of a handful of negative ilxor reviews? Be your own Lorax, here, man.

the part in DH2 when the dude gets pushed into the jet engine... yeesh

Still not sure what was up with villain's naked stretching/martial arts practice at beginning

the steam powered luggage sorting facility at the airport is also a little wtf.

I've seen Cornel from both sides now, as sage and crank, but still somehow, it's West's self-importance I recall. I really can't see West at all.

Just watched Commando for the first time in a long long time - Bill Paxton is also in that too!
