I thought it was good. I think the group of 15 year-olds in front of us got something they weren't expecting though. Anyone else see it, or any other good movies lately?

Could you give me a brief plot synopsis? I honestly have no idea what it's about besides that kid from third rock wanking.

I saw Rush. Incredible movie.

haha, They don't really explain it in previews a lot because a large part of the plot is that kid from third rock wanking it. But really just saying its about that doesn't really do it justice. Its sort of about his porn addiction, and the guy figuring stuff out. He's pretty much a jersey shore type douche, and ends up learning a few things. I don't want to ruin it if you watch it, but it is really funny, and makes you think a bit. Also Scarlet Johansson is in it. Very nsfw movie.

It just is man. It's hard to give a good synopsis. I edited my last post to try though. Also, I have to see Rush asap, I just wasn't in the mood to take in that sort of epicness yesterday.

I liked don Jon a lot. Especially the ending, it didn't force a special ending like so many movies do

It's definitely not your typical movie. It's not so much a story as an idea, it's about a guy dealing with an addiction and learning about himself and life in general along the way.

it's a good movie. I love movies like this, movies that dont necessarily have a traditional plot but still tell an engaging story. Lars and the Real Girl comes to mind as a similar style of movie.

Yeah, it seemed a bit like there was no resolution, but the more you thought about it the more it makes sense.

My immediate reaction was 'woah', then "I hope they summarize what happened afterwards in the credits". But as I thought about it I realized that would have ruined the movie. The point was made, he got his resolution, that's all that matters.
