Not only that, but neither Affleck or Damon have ever claimed that their upbringing was remotely like Good Will Hunting. They've always acknowledged they were Cambridge brats.
And you're sure this isn't just some fanboy thing? 'Cause I've fought more than a couple pimply, overweight vamps that called themselves Lestat.

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
It sounded impossible that there was someone who needed to get over himself more than Ben Affleck or Eminem, but apparently, there is.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I always thought Jennifer Lopez outdid both of them handily.
I must admit I'm interested in seeing how Eminem reacts to a sniping war in the press with someone who doesn't wear high heels.

If I only had a brain...
So he's saying "West Side Story" wasn't realistic? I never would have guessed.
You mean 1950s punks didn't dance down the street and have better air time than Michael Jordan?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I was going to say. When your mom is a professor and you went to school with Jesse, you probably did not have a tough childhood.
Eminem, I sometimes cannot tell if he is actually that scary/angry, or just the biggest poser in the world. Which I suppose is the whole point of his shtick.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
See, quotes like that sound as if he could be joking around and they quoted it straight. Thge press seems to do that a lot--report teasing as if it's serious.

You could have gone to school in a meadow and done your homework on slates. Just going to school with you makes it not a hardship, honey.

I'm just saying -- kids I went to high school with did grow up in the projects, in and out of jail, etc., etc. Just not Matt-n-Ben. Don't make me blog about the ridiculous diversity of my high school!

Oh yeah, that.
