who's in that? Johnny Depp? Christian Bale? Marillion Cottard? Robert Downey Junior? Kate Bosworth? Stephen Dourff?
me: everyone under the sun
yes yes no no yes
Giovanni Ribisi, Channing Tatum,
Billy Crudup apparently?
Tim: what? really? you made that up
Billy Crudup doesn't exist
me: hah
he's MF J Edgar Hoover
I don't know, I don't think I watched that part
despite being about gangsters and including stephen dorffffff, it was sorta boring
maybe I only watched the parts with stephen dorffffffffff in it

I like that he takes those chances
unflattering haircuts
Tim: yeah, terrible movies
me: hah
SHUT UP BLADE IS AWESOME
I Shot Andy Warhol
I am loving Somewhere the more I think about it

Space Truckers
the end

the capitalization is my own
me: hahahhaha

Charles motherfucking Dance?
Tim: oh yeah
he's the bad guy
I forgot about him
me: Lord Lannister himself
Tim: obviously
Charles Dance is the bad guy
he's the bad guy in everything
except Alien 3
where he is somehow the love interest
me: They've shipped everything from square pigs to anti-gravity beer... But now they've got a load of real trouble.
oh ah
I did not realize that
I actually liked Alien 3
Tim: yeah me too
yeah he's the doctor that gets busy with Ripley
before he gets Alien'd
I really like Alien 3
me: gotcha

I love teams working together
overcoming something, whether it's bank security or homicidal aliens
