he was a diversion in Jurassic Park (in that he kept you from realizing what a piece of shit you were watching until it was over)
somehow he kept me from realizing it even now

He‘s got the sophisticated bachelor thing down, but a lot of it codes as creepy and slyly lecherous. He’s fun to watch, but I don’t get the “sexy” aspect. Unless schmoozey swinger is your type.

I don't understand the Jeff Goldblum *thing*. Like, he was good in The Fly, he was funny in The Tall Guy, he was a diversion in Jurassic Park (in that he kept you from realizing what a piece of shit you were watching until it was over), he was competent in Invasion of the Body Snatchers (a very good movie that he did nothing to fuck up)...but this idea that there's something innately cool, or funny, or smart, or sexy about him? It's fucking baffling.

yeah I'll OTM this except I'll correct it to write, "HE was great in The Fly."

I'm surprised no one's mentioned his bit in The Big Chill as a gibbering narcissist.

they all were, they were boomers iirc

The Big Chill was a bad movie. Not because it was about boomers, but because it was a shallow mediocrity with a good cast and high production values.

Yeah I watched it a few years ago for the first time and was surprised at how flimsy it was

Mediocre isn't bad. It's fine: it hits its TV-era notes.

ok man I was only responding to the big chill/ gibbering narcissist post prior to mine.apologies if it came across as me assigning this designation to him in real life

i get why he has a cult, he has a strange fey presence that nicely ironizes poses like the centerfold shot in JP. i think it should be weaponized for villains more but i think that about everybody.

My ex was on the sexy Goldblum train a decade ago and I supported her in this tbh

He was the only interesting thing in the Thor movie he was in.

I would like it to turn out that he's not a creep, but if he is, so be it.

The Nicole Cliffe thread inspired a good friend of mine to tell me that she and several others got groped by him at a film fest some years back. So, eternal shit list.

one of the weirdest things about stuff like this, scarjo etc etc is that these ppl will go to the mat publicly for the "honor" of being in a terrible new Woody Allen movie

Until recently it was a sign in the industry that You'd Made It by appearing in a terrible Woody Allen flick.
― TikTok to the (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 8 November 2019 15:23 (four years ago) link
now done by by appearing in a terrible Tarantino flick
(tho that usu indicates 'resurrection;)
