I agree. I never understood what all the fuss was about her attractiveness. Always thought she was about an 8. The blond hair takes her to a 10. Gives her the extra sexy.

Persistence and a bold, manipulative salesmanship type of personality required to convince people to take risks. That's his only real "talent" - raising the capital needed to fund film production. Sadly, this is the key to rising to the top in almost any profit driven corporation in America. And it is because of these same traits that he was able to get away with what he was doing for so long. He's the classic emperor with no clothes.
Because Winter and Ivy have likely become lovers and instead of killing Ally as they're doing to everyone else they've decided to create a charade to drive her crazy and provide a reason for Ivy to leave her.
The only reason that they are a "religion" is because they wanted to be recognized as such for the tax exemption status. In an embarrassing acquiescence, the federal government caved in to strong arm tactics employed by Scientology to get the IRS to grant them this designation. Tactics included going after individual IRS agents and their families with Mafia style threats and clogging up the courts with thousands of frivolous lawsuits.
Simon is a d bag for buzzing Puddles. He's a great theater or Broadway type of singer. Simon has a hangup with these types. On American Idol he always panned them saying that they were too "cabaret". AGT is supposed to be a variety act show. I'm tired of all the regular singers that always get put through. Puddles was unique and different.
Well said. Unfortunately great films like this one are being relegated to indie production companies and playing more and more to shrinking audiences. The big money is being thrown at the mindless shoot em up and fantasy "blockbusters" - mindless being the operative word. Anyone under 30 these days is the target demographic. Film as an art form is slowly disappearing because the Millennials can not appreciate anything that doesn't give them instant gratification.
He's a cheeky monkey! He makes the show a lot of fun. Good to see him back, even more so as a fictional character. Brilliant.
