odessasteps Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Is Bettany still married/partnered with Jennifer Connelly? If so, who needs to go out and make crappy movies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVA Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Yes. There are definite positives to his life. Good thing he locked that down early in life, though. Dude looks rough to only be in his early 40's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reed Posted November 14, 2014 Author Share Posted November 14, 2014 Return to Oz is better than The Wizard of Oz. I loved how dark and frightening it was as a kid. And while Fairuza Balk wasn't Garland-levels of iconic, she brought her own qualities to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeeball Wizard Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Animal House and Monty Python and the Holy Grail are both a total snooze. Boring and overrated, Animal House slightly moreso. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Comedian Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Return To Oz is pretty great in its own way though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reed Posted November 15, 2014 Author Share Posted November 15, 2014 In fairness, even as a kid I was into to macabre, Tim Burton-esque stuff and didn't like schmaltzy things like E.T. or Wizard of Oz, which is pretty much what that descends into by the end. I'm not saying Return to Oz is more well-known or famous than Wizard of Oz, it just happens to appeal to more to my tastes more. And it's actually more truer to the books. I do dislike this thing where certain movies just get to a point in culture where they're beyond criticism. OK, so it gets played every Christmas, that doesn't mean the ending isn't stupid and tacked on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nate Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Belushi made me laugh, but Farley didn't. Belushi and Farley both make me laugh. Jon Stewart doesn't. He's pretty much the poster boy for the smugness I hate about 21st century humor. I started turning off "Daily Show" when every episode would see Stewart break out that "WHAAA?" punchline. "Well, I can seem that your stance on ISIS has some- WHAAAAA?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVileOne Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 I'm not a huge fan of Dumb and Dumber or Dumb and Dumber To and that pisses some Dumb and Dumber fans off. I don't even dislike all the Farrellys films, Dumb and Dumber is simply one of their films I like the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
