    They played the trailer before Rambo, but I wasn't too thrilled by it.

    Looks like a similar concept/theme to Be Kind Rewind, but I'm more interested in Gondry's film.

    I missed this at last year's SIFF. It's a shame too, I heard it was pretty dang good.

    That trailer does little to inspire faith in the project, but if you all say so...

    The praises for this have been really strong. I wasn't too thrilled by the concept, but I gotta check out what the fuck's everyone's been raving about.

    It reminds me of Sidekicks more than BKR, really.

    I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he’s like, ‘There’s a culture of outrage.’ I’m like, ‘Well, they have a reason to be outraged.’ I think it’s a lot of dudes just being scared. They’re like, ‘What if I did something and I didn’t realize it?’ I’m like, ‘Deal with it.’

    Oh that recalls 90 minutes of my childhood I'd have rather left forgotten.

    Seeing how I watch Sidekicks every 2 years or so, I can't really call it my "childhood", can I?

    I think this has been playing around America for a while now. Anyone else seen it? It's a sweet little movie for the most part, but plays deeply into some pet peeves of mine with audience manipulation. The two kids are pretty great, though.
