I enjoyed that when I saw it. It's faults were very Mamety so I couldn't act surprised.

Hello Gear. What is the problem? How may I help you?

"Pretty good" is only a few notches up from "sort-of." I wasn't saying "CLASSIK D00D," I was just pleasantly surprised.

And I like to see moving pictures of Alaska any day of the week.

i'll agree that a movie in which two men battle their own demons and a bear can;t be all bad

It would have been better if Anthony Hopkins had to team up with a bear to kill a wild Alec Baldwin.

i hope someone will now photoshop a rabid-looking baldwin in place of the bear in the above still

I guess it's a truism at this point but Mamet's dialogue is so amusingly improbable.

The best is in whatever that heist movie is, when Devito (I think) says, "Everyone wants money -- that's why they call it money."

― Zed Szetlian (Finn MacCool), Friday, 15 July 2005 01:02 (twenty years ago)

I'd happily watch Mamet taking a 2 hour shit.

P.S. I am wanking as I write this.

since when is dialogue supposed to be probable

― s1ocki (slutsky), Friday, 15 July 2005 01:44 (twenty years ago)

Shakespeare's dialogue is shit. Who speaks in iambic pentameters?
