If she ever hosts SNL again, the sketch with Christian Grey tying her up and reading the Madame Web reviews to her writes itself.

I fully expect Cruise to be in Les Grossman mode.

Happy to see tuxedoed Wolverine.

I’m not saying he deserved an Oscar nomination for Central Intelligence.
But also I am.

The Canyons definitely felt like his last gasp, so everything from First Reformed onward has been a pleasant surprise.

The New York Times piece on the production of The Canyons is infinitely more entertaining than the movie.

Let’s get real, there’s a history of sexual sadism inside all-male locker rooms in sports in general, and it’s been notoriously bad in wrestling. Because it’s ultimately about power, the “ribs” like the eyebrow shaving seemed to overlap to the women who were abused while the sexual abuse aspects were often present in the ribs on the men.

Hey so was Mullholland Drive. Ooh, now I want Maui to fight the dumpster monster lady.

They’ve finally disappeared so far up their own asses that they have a sequel to a movie in post-production and a remake of the same movie in pre-production.

If memory serves, Tribute to the Troops was JBL’s idea, and he’s probably been jazzed to take credit for it until right now.

Superbad is really very wholesome.
My supremely genteel grandmother was one of those old people who would just show up at the movie theater and see whatever showtime was coming up soon, so she saw Superbad and enjoyed it. Of course, she also took me to both Kill Bills because I was underage and would watch the Candyman and Hannibal Lecter movies without batting an eye.

Had a thought: What’s the most wholesome R-rated movie? Sweet, breezy, and not especially filthy, but a hard R nonetheless.
I’m thinking My Cousin Vinny or Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.

this whole board was made (in)famous because of a thread of 'lighthearted anecdotes' that are horrific if you really sit and think about them.
Sure, but that’s also why when we hear or read something that is uniquely wild or disgusting, even for us, it’s notable.

I’m not surprised by Nash’s response. He used to tell that story in shoot interviews about Iron Sheik slapping around a woman they brought back to their hotel room because she wouldn’t arch her back like a dog, and he delivered it like it was a lighthearted anecdote.

I’m pretty sure it’s the Alfred Hitchcock Presents with Steve McQueen and Peter Lorre, but maybe Twilight Zone did it too. There’s a Tales from the Crypt with Lance Henriksen that had a really great take on it as well.

Re: Four Rooms
I feel like the consensus is that The Misbehavers is the best room, followed by The Man from Hollywood, then the hostage one with Jennifer Beals, and the coven of witches one is dead last. The interlude phone call with Kathy Griffin is pretty good from what I recall.

For the sake of your purposed argument, I would suggest True Romance is a movie made by a formulaic filmmaker who brings little to no authorship to his film. Tony Scott was a good hand for the studios who could seemingly bring in a star studded picture on time and on budget.
There are plenty of Scott film’s I don’t care for, but I’d still argue if his movies are formulaic it’s because he was an enormous influence on the formula, and if his style seems indistinguishable from his contemporaries it’s because they were cribbing from him.

Re: The Movie Critic. Quentin says it's about a vulgar, invective spewing (including racial slurs of course) movie critic that worked for pornographers, but the main guy playing him isn't Pitt and is instead someone he hasn't used before. So, Brad Pitt gets to be the lead on the posters at least? I guess he didn't have Pitt as the lead in his last one either but that's because Leonardo frickin DeCaprio was the lead. And honestly he wasn't the lead in Basterds either, but that was an ensemble film.
It’s at least rumored to be Paul Walter Hauser, which has me very excited. It’s still wild to me that one of the greatest young characters actors working right now is also simultaneously a part-time hand for Pro Wrestling Revolver.

NBK got a lot of mileage out of premiering within months of the Brown and Goldman murders and the OJ story overtaking culture.

I’m glad he’s probably got another twenty years left in him to be put through the wringer by the feds. I do wonder if he’s too proud to do the standard Weinstein feeble old man transformation for courtroom appearances.

According to google, Kyle Petty is 6’2”, and he looks like one of them should be carrying him in a New World Order baby sling. I know it’s breaking news, wrestlers big, but damn.

FEBRUARY 2024 Wrestling Talk

“Uptight urbanite Jason Segal moves to the backwoods to finally write his novel and discovers his neighbor is a Stone Cold Steve Austin type” could absolutely have been a comedy that I watched on Netflix or Prime in the past decade and forgot every moment of as soon as it was over.
