      I know you hate any director people enjoy Kep but most think Phillips did quite well with this film. That doesn't mean a sequel will be good but Phoenix won't do it if he thinks the story sucks. I doubt this next one will be another Scorsese pastiche.
      I'd like to get Jonathan Nolan away from his less (albeit still) talented brother. He has a good mind and I think he could deliver a movie that was perverse without it being for its own sake (the pitfall of almost every Joker rendition). He also puts the ideas first and the glam second, which is what every truly great director since Welles has done.

      But even the Nolans are old snooze now. I'd love to find some heroin addict in their late 20s / early 30s who doesn't have a single f-ck to give about the hamfisted cliches of the genre and have them remake it. Like I said this is as close as there will be to a "safe" investment for the Hollywood dollar morons so let's aim high for the first time since, oh, 1958.

        Moore is a horrible human being but in his day he was as close to God as comics will ever get. The dude took a box of tinkertoys and turned them into fine china. He's the Babe Ruth of the genre. He made it adult, and by adult I don't mean gritty and mean and vicious like Miller I mean worthy of the intellect of someone over the age of nine.

                    Vice.

                    Probably the worst movie to watch during this time of political chaos. About Cheney. Great cast. Good acting. Honestly, it didn't know whether to be a satire or a true scathing bio-pic. The styles clashed with one another. While entertaining to see, and worth seeing, I wasn't all on board because of it. If they chose one style over the other, I have no doubt I'd be lauding this movie to no end. Each style, separately, would have been very excellent, given how they did it. Mashed together? Eh, I guess. If that's how they wanted it.
                    Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                          I really want to see that. I saw the other Mr Rogers movie, and I thought it was quite charming. It was like curling up in a blanket on a cold winter day, with a cup of hot chocolate.

                            The Doc is better...but **** this is just so wonderful. If you watched Mr. Rogers back in the day it is a must see. You will feel 5 years old again

                              That is good to hear, because that's what I felt like when I watched the doc.

                                Been wanting to see this. Glad to hear.

                                Of course Kep will hate it, since it stars Tom Hanks.
