OP, did you even pay attention when watching the show. Go back and watch the very last episode, when Walt finally admits the truth to Skyler, that he did it all for himself because he liked it, NOT to survive and protect his family. Walt might have "initially" started out with "noble" intentions, the good guy, but he ended up "Breaking Bad", thus the title of the show
I agree with what you wrote
Blah blah yourself dude. I take it you are part of the problem? why so many crap movies get released today? Consensus opinion is that The Devil Wears Prada is the superior film, it received and won numerous awards (Academy, Golden Globes and BAFTA), and if nothing else had a single great performance from Meryl Streep. The Intern is pablum for the masses.
Fair enough, Meet The Parents was a very funny entertaining movie, no problem there. For me, The Intern was dreadfully unfunny, not a single laugh in the entire film.
The fact that this dull sugary sweet film has a higher score than the vastly superior "The Devil Wears Prada" (also starring Anne Hathaway), speaks volume for the tastes of today's movie audiences, and where the first rule of film making for the masses, seems to be: DO NOT OFFEND ANYONE!
Because DeNiro has gone from being one of the greatest actors of all time starring in some of the greatest movies of all time, to being just another run of the mill, pay check actor starring in dreck movies, that are essentially pablum for the masses.
He is a terrific actor. One of the best actors working today, and deserves better roles.
Laurence Olivier for the 26 episodes of the World At War series. The greatest narration ever.
I made it through to the end, hoping it would get better, but it was a tedious bore fest from beginning to end. I agree, not only Sandra and Cate, but none of the actresses had any chemistry with each other. A paint by numbers heist movie that committed the number one "cardinal sin" of any popcorn movie, namely being dull.
Popcorn films should be fun, unfortunately O8 is not, it suffers from a problem shared by far too many films of recent years, namely being dull and forgettable. Having said that, O12 was also a dull tedious mess.
He was most likely on salary and working way beyond 40 hours per week. That could mean $60K annual salary with a 60 hour work week, certainly not great but OK by 2004 standards.
Hey its all good, most people that watch these shreds videos find them funny, but like you say, different tastes. There was a reaction video floating around showing Daryl Hall watching the Maneater one and laughing.
Yes indeed, a sense of humor is a prerequisite for this one

Yep, Cruise haters might "wish" he were only 5'4" but he is actually a little under 5'8"
Recently re-watched it after a number of years, still holds up as very good film, and Kidman was also top notch.
Boiler Room - Wall Street
Parts of Canada are sh*holes. If you were blind folded before being dropped off in such areas, based on the "ethnic" makeup of the vast majority of people seen everywhere you turn, you would think you were in some middle eastern or African sh*thole country. Canada seems hell bent on flooding its shores with marginally skilled (or elderly) 3rd world immigrants as fast as possible, and erasing all signs of its white European heritage as fast as possible. The left needs ethnic voters to stuff those election night ballot boxes with lots and lots of leftie votes, while the right needs a steady supply of cheap labor to keep their corporate puppet string masters happy.
Yep, I have seen this film numerous since it release, and each time I am amazed at its originality, quirkiness, black humor, script quality, and cinematography. It is refreshing to find a stand alone film for adults that is of such high caliber, especially when compared to today's kidult driven world of cinema that consists primarily of branding, reboots, sequels, super hero, and animated films.
100 years from now, Fargo will still be thought of as a great film, by the majority of viewers.
"anyway,the text of my post was meant to convey how cringingly horrible that "culturally relevant" line of dialogue was(kind of amusing that nobody seems to get that)"
Yes that was a cringingly bad piece of dialogue, an attempt at trendiness that just ended up being another garbage line that fits the overall mediocrity of this film.
