Also Snoop Lion, née Dog randomly shows up in there too.

And this:

Q: What is it like being so awesome?

A: Well, nothing prepared me for being this awesome. It's kind of a shock. It's kind of a shock to wake up every morning and be bathed in this purple light.

I saw American Hustle tonight. Definitely the most out and out fun movie DOR has done since Flirting with Disaster, IMO. Still need to see Huckabees though.

I was talking with a friend who worked in the movie business, and she related her experience of working on "Spanking the Monkey" and how nice DOR was to her.

I said, "Well, you wouldn't know it from that outtake in Huckabees with Lily Tomlin and Dustin Hoffman."

And she said, "But every movie is like that! That's like a regular day on any movie set. That's why I loved that audio from a set where Christian Bale just went off. The pressure is so intense. People snap all the time. He just got caught."

Saw Nebraska last night. It was really powerful and generous of spirit. Much better than I thought it was going to be. Will Forte was outclassed in the acting department, but he had some serious competition.

We saw Nebraska last weekend, and I went only reluctantly because TCG was worried if we didn't see it right away, it would quickly disappear from the theater. The reason why I was reluctant was because there was so many movies on my list of must see right now, and Nebraska wasn't even on my radar. I was so pleasantly surprised. Like you said, the acting was wonderful, and it was such a great story. I love occasionally seeing a film where people look and dress like people. When I looked at the IMDB page for it, I was amazed at how many of the minor characters were played by people with little if any movie experience.

You think? I didn't know him, and I thought he did quite well.

Anyway, I really enjoyed it: I liked that everyone looked like real non-Hollywood people, and acted like it. The sons' frustration at dealing with their father struck me as very familiar, much like what it was dealing with my mother during the last few years of her life. The humor was nicely played, although the two truck-obsessed cousins were overdone, I thought.

I did come away wanting more information, like about his war experience, and all that, and found it frustrating that Alexander decided to dangle that in front of us but not answer the question.

I agree with Scrappy on this. Forte was really good, much better than I was expecting him to be, but everyone else was acting circles around him.

We're going to see American Hustle today to see if we can spot TCG's dad and how many locations I. Worcester we recognize.

Donald from Pitch Perfect is totes adorbs and I want him to live in my house and rap at me.
