Watched Dark Waters last night. 2 hours of Mark Ruffalo doing this - :thinking: :face_with_raised_eyebrow: :open_mouth: :anguished: :thinking: :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Loved it.

00-05 rom-coms really are pretty universally great and watchable imo, and they sincerely don’t make them like that anymore

I think they’re awful, it’s very hard to relate to mid-30’s NYers complaining about their love lives

They’re definitely not meant to be relatable.

how can you get invested in a film where you don’t care about any of the characters?

Not sure how to answer that as I don’t think I’ve ever seen a film where i’m like OMG SHES SO ME…well maybe I Feel Pretty :cry:

Aspirational to live in a gigantic flat in New York and yearn for someone who works in an independent book shop or something though, right?

I’ve tried to watch a few classics recently and found them a bit nauseating. I did enjoy Sleepless in Seattle though

change NY to London and that’s half the boards

watched 3 Days Of The Condor (3.5/5, one of the worst sex scenes I’ve ever seen and a bit too ‘silly’ overall) and rewatched Marathon Man (5/5 all time banger) this week so far - gonna do Parallax View tonight

When Harry Met Sally will always be the gold standard for me (don’t @ me if you don’t like it I don’t want to know :wink:)

It’s a good film but I prefer Sleepless In Seattle.

You know what I’m not sure I’ve seen SIS. Or if I have it was so long ago I can’t remember it. I should definitely address that

I saw SiS in the cinema whenever it came out. Really liked it. It’s more gooey and saccharine than When Harry Met Sally but that’s fine with me.

On my first visit to New York I went to Katz Deli. I didn’t have what she was having but had a sandwich so big there’s no way I was going to get that in my mouth. Couldn’t eat much of it but good pastrami.

I’d love to go there (I’ve been to NY twice but I’m an idiot). In the film the meat is just piled on their plates and they kind of make their own sandwiches

I think I might like You’ve Got Mail the best!

The queueing system is weird. They give you a raffle ticket on entry. I can’t remember what you’re supposed to do with it.

When the bloke serving said the bill was $15 I tried to hand him some cash but he comically and frighteningly waved his meat cleaver slightly at me and told me in a Danny Trejo voice “No my friend. You pay at the counter!”
