I saw a commercial of this film and saw Ewan McGregor talking about Jedi and I was like what but he was Obi-Wan


In that movie's universe, who played Obi-Wan


who

George Clooney.

Who played a good role.

Jeff Bridges was good as well - but there is no fucking point.

I'm interested now.

Have you seen 'I heart Huckabees' and if so, would you consider it totally pointless as well?

It's a comedy about the psychic soldiers in the 80s. The military tried to group together a bunch of people and hone their psychic ability to use them on the battlefield and stuff. It sounded interesting but I knew it wouldn't be good.

Both great movies.

Kevin Spacey hate. Funny.

I couldn't even watch all of American beauty, and I watched Seven once and don't really care to see it again. Boring movies.

So yeah, I'm just such a hater. :rolleyes:

American Beauty was one of the best movies of the 90s.

I'll admit that I haven't seen Glen Garry, Glen Ross. I'm going to have to check that one out.

I'll give the Space man a fair shake.

To all the Spacey haters: Pay It Forward FO LYFE






































































Actually, fuck that stupid fucking waste of film. I was just being nice to my sister-in-law by watching it. If I ever have to view even one fucking second of that train wreck my brain will explode out of self preservation.

Seven was great but you can't watch it more than once. AB is okay.

On topic, this movie looks like every other pile-of-shit cash grab that Clooney has put out on the past decade...pass

Clooney isn't all worthless. The Ocean movies may be trash, but Michael Clayton was a good movie.

I just realized I haven't seen a lot of George Clooney movies in the past decade.

The only Clooney movie I ever liked was O Brother.

I had the awesome experience of my mom making me take my sister to fucking Batman & Robin.

I forgot about L.A. Confidential. Somehow, I forgot he was in it.

Dusk til Dawn?

Three Kings?

Clooney has the potential to be great as long as he's merely an actor and not a producer/director.

You can't beat Keeton, but I still think Clooney would have made a good Batman if he wasn't in that piece of shit movie. Val Kilmer can suck my nuts. Batman Forever would have been better with Clooney in it.

I'm a sucker for George Clooney. And despite what I read in this thread, I still wanna see this movie.

Clooney was great in Burn After Reading.


Which, coincidentally Tonk, is an incredibly pointless movie.

lol

That movie was truly horrible. We got free theatre tickets for an advance preview showing. Even free was too much to sit through that. They should have paid me...

Saw it, did not like it.

Same lines as Men who stare at goats, but a little more understandable.
