His other stuff is at least good enough to get a good laugh.

Lost in Translation is one of my favorite films. Tome, the film really gets down to the core of what makes us all human. Life is really just a series of interactions and relationships with other people. Peoples lives just crashing into each other unexpectedly. You can't fall in love with every single person you meet, but sometimes you can't help it. Even though you can't act on it, a lot of these random meets can change our lives over the course of a few days. I love the film for showing this side of humanity and not just going down the romantic path that less remembered films do. LIT is special.

True. I liked him when he started off, but he's gotten old doing the same old schtick.

I heard Wolverine wasn't in very much of it.

Lost in Translation or the new Jim Gaffigan special? I'd bet odds he didn't get much face time in either.

Agree with all of this.

Finally sat down and watched all 3+ hours of Oliver Stone's JFK last night. Remarkable film-making. Holds your attention for the entire run time. And what a cast! Costner is the lead for sure but every one of the supporting characters is brilliant playing some pretty "colorful" real life people.

Do we buy into Garrison's overall conspiracy theory? Not really, but maybe just a little bit. But so many true facts are raised that make you wonder how they all might have been connected.

Two of the ones that stuck with me:

- All FBI offices receive a telex from the Director 5 days before Kennedy is shot warning of a possible assassination attempt on the president in Dallas. Yet no additional security personal are dispatched and neither the secret service or the FBI advise Kennedy not to ride in a convertible. Hell, even if not for the Telex, he's in Texas where he's loathed by an extremely red state.

- The Warren commission single shooter conclusion. Too many witnesses testified to hearing shots and/or seeing puffs of smoke coming from the wooden fence at the top of the grassy knoll. And these were people in numerous locations. The movie makes a great point that if Oswald was the lone shooter, why didn't he take the shots as the car was driving towards him where he had a clean view rather than wait until the car was driving away where he had to shoot with a tree partially in his way.

Anyway, great, great movie. 5 stars all the way.

Lmao.

**** that movie. Solid film, but it spurred way too many nutters and made a trend out of disrespecting the dead.

@Chula

Stick with that train of thought. We need a new Roxy.

What are you two getting at? I've spent all morning checking out a few of the details raised (not the overall conclusion, just some of the details) and it turned out they really did happen.

Sound bounces, senor. Multiple shots my ass.
