Death of a Superhero... watch it!

I saw 'The Fault in Our Stars.'

Yeah.

Both movies seem worth a watch. Down to my to-watch list. Thank you!

Ben Stiller movie from last year.

Just found on Netflix and watched.
Surprisingly awesome! ..I'm gushing I know.

the credits wrote:INCREDIBLE SKATEBOARD TRICKS BY___RODNEY MULLEN

Gotta gush some more: the Space Oddity scene! --and the parody of Benjamin Button!

Umm, why not just post this in the pinned Movies thread?

Dope! Thanks Tom.

Not a huge fan of Ben Stiller.

Regardless, I do like some of his work. Flirting with Disaster is quite good while Tropic Thunder is a guilty pleasure.

As a footnote to Tropic Thunder, who knew Tom Cruise could act in anything but Tom Cruise hero mode?

Me neither, thus my surprise.

Zoolander (guilty pleasure), Tropic Thunder (guilty pleasure as well), and Night at the Museum are pretty much all I know him for.

Imdb informs me that Walter Mitty was a remake that took awhile to come together.. maybe that's why it is such a contrast (actually having respectable substance) to the above?

Har! I was sitting in the cinema, then as the credits rolled I had a revelation!

'Um. Is that Tom Cruise?'

Is this what they mean by method acting?

Ben Stiller has some really good ones where he is the director and/or writer, but he has a very distinct type of humor that usually doesn't fit much else. He reminds me a LOT of Andy Kaufman in terms of humor style. For example, the extras section from Tropic Thunder has both Ben Stiller and Robert Downey Jr in one of their scenes going back and forth many times over. Not many people can actually appreciate the intensity that both actors portrayed and their acting chops. Most people write that extra off as silly, but in reality, it is incredibly intense and amazing.

And I wholeheartedly agree about the footnote with Tom Cruise. That was amazing in many regards, I don't usually care for the guy.

Guys, you're the worst. Now I must find and watch this Tropic Thunder-movie of yours... Thank you so much!

i recently watched "john dies at the end"
