I'd probably rather go out drinking with him than Affleck. He might be boring, but Affleck would be obnoxious and probably ignore you while getting the phone #'s of all the girls you want to talk to.

I've heard good things about the movie! I'm excited what with the mantots and all...
i think you're right about the beers. although, matt might be the guy who sits back & just lets the ladies come to him. his wife is very hot.

He talks in that profile about how Affleck learned the hard way about the perils of overpublicity, and how if people know a lot about your personal life it's going to distract the audience from seeing you as a character in a story. It's as if they were equally strong actors with different personalities at the time of Good Will Hunting, and then they took very different routes not in the movies they chose but in the way they publicized themselves outside of those movies.
Affleck must've had a hard time watching The Departed. Boston movie without him.

that's sooooo generous, though. Affleck has done a very poor job of managing his career apart from his personal life as well.

I was trying to remember what movie I saw where he did a decent job in a small role, and then I realized it was Smokin' Aces, so never mind.

I'm going to fucking wreck you! That's to all the weak ass bitches. Sure I forgot who the fuck I am and people are trying to kill me and I'm not 100% sure why, but that doesn't mean I won't put a pen through your fucking hand or pound a book into your trach Vic Mackey style. Sometimes I get confused or have episodes. Then I start speaking in foreign languages I didn't even know I knew how to speak. Then there's time for fucking people up again.
Oh so you got a car now? Fuck that shit. I'll ride a moped and still fucking wreck you. You think you can stop me? You can't even contain me. Try to shoot me. I dare you. I'll make you miss and then jump out the window in shame. Fuck that, in fear. The moment you realize you fucked with Jason Bourne is the moment you jump out a window because you don't want to get fucked up by me. Thats right bitch.
See my movie.

This is good, from Hopper's blog - Stevie Wonder doing "Superstitious" on Sesame Street: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ul7X5js1vE
― Eazy, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:19 (seventeen years ago) link
i misread that as "hooper" as in "Mr. Hooper" and then I remembered that he died.
― sweet tater, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:24 (seventeen years ago) link
poor ol Mr. Hooper
― kenan, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:24 (seventeen years ago) link
Speaking of Hopper...
The only thing everybody at Lollapalooza has in common is the willingness to be painfully gouged for a ticket. Even crowds that might seem a bit more like-minded (at Pitchfork, para ejemplo) make for a grim and dystopian scene
... no one at the Reader knows Spanish well enough to change that to "por ejemplo"?
― jaymc, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:25 (seventeen years ago) link
also, that is a jammin version of superstition

Has anyone been to the Great Taste of the Midwest Beer Festival in Madison? I may be performing there next weekend....although I'm not sure the guy fully comprehends our show. I mean, from what I know, small children are at this festival.
― sisut, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:32 (seventeen years ago) link
Yeah, my band plays there every year. :>
― Jordan, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:33 (seventeen years ago) link
What is your show? I don't see many kids there, just wasted parents.
ps it's a great time
Burlesque...that's why I'm confused. At least one of the other dancers and I are game for the gig, but we need to find out details. We can definitely modify to make it more family friendly, but it's still gonna be burlesque.
― sisut, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:35 (seventeen years ago) link
family-friendly burlesque is an oxymoron, no? Or at least not much fun. :(
― kenan, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:36 (seventeen years ago) link
The group does have some numbers that are straight up dance numbers, no clothing whatsoever removed, and a couple of us sing. But since several of the other dancers are unavailable next weekend, this would probably be strictly solos.
― sisut, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:38 (seventeen years ago) link
Hmmm, it's basically a bunch of drunk Midwesterners drinking unlimited beer in a sunny park during the day. Maybe it would be weird, but there's a pretty great vibe there, so I could see it working out fine.
(the website says kids are allowed btw)
― Jordan, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:40 (seventeen years ago) link
What kid wouldn't love watching some pole dancing and "Pour Some Sugar On Me" with a corn dog and some fries?
― Eazy, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:44 (seventeen years ago) link
that's not burlesque, either!

ISN'T IT

hahahaha that's straight up stripping
― dan m, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:47 (seventeen years ago) link
It depends on how the corn dog & fries are used.
― Jordan, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:47 (seventeen years ago) link
Tell that to Amber, Angel, Montana, and Quinn.

oh, you said Quinn.
― kenan, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:51 (seventeen years ago) link
the name Montana still instantly makes me thing of Montana Wildhack from Slaughterhouse 5.

That I did know!

and she's disney's pawn, no?
I don't know who you people are talking about.
I'm trying to wean myself from "cheating" on crossword puzzles, but it's not going very well. I can only seem to complete one w/heavy internet assistance. :(
― Jordan, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:02 (seventeen years ago) link
there are support groups for cheaters like you.

― Jordan, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:05 (seventeen years ago) link
xxpost Yep.
We are talking about Miley Cyrus, Billy Ray's 14-year-old daughter, who appears on a Disney Channel TV show called Hannah Montana in which she plays a girl named Miley Stewart who performs as a pop singer named Hannah Montana. In real life, Miley Cyrus skips the middleman and performs and releases albums as Hannah Montana. Shit's huge among the tweener crowd. And certain ILXors.
I do crossword puzzles on the train, mostly, so I can't cheat.
