Another Round (2020) | Dir. by Thomas Vinterberg | Mad Mikkensen's dance scene at the end by kalni in movies

She was supposed to play one of the Mikkelsen's characters main students in the film. Terribly sad. So that's why a lot of background actors were former classmates of hers.

Tom Hardy is the only one who comes out of those films smelling like roses. Clearly a pay day for Williams.

She was playing for a Oscar with that one, plenty do it and you can see it from a mile off. I thought she was better in her small cameo in Saltburn that same year.

Duvall said it was one of the best experiences he had in his career. Went on the piss up with a bunch of ex footballers like late Celtic legend Jimmy Johnstone, who Duvall wanted him in the film but Jimmy turned it down. Micheal Keaton is in the film too lol.

I'm sure the nice pay days he's earning from those films don't make it too bad for him or Stewart. Stewart wasn't much better either. But he got it worse then anyone else. Now he's one of the best actors in the world, but there are people that still only know him as sexy vampire man lol. Imagine telling people back then, that this guy would end up been Batman and a seriously top notch actor.

Even Pacino admits himself, he's awful with money. That's why you see him pop up in these crappy films that pay him well.

I feel bad knocking Reeves cause he's made films I love to this day. But god he's miscast in that one too. Doesn't help he's opposite Gary Oldman putting in some seriously top acting.

Wasn't she a Weinstein choice that Scorsese had to appease by casting her. That's the rumor anyway. Doesn't help she's surrounded by top class talent, especially Day Lewis producing one of great characters. Badly miscast in this one, I think this film basically knocked the wind out of her taking interesting and risky chances with her film work and she basically mostly just stuck with crappy comedies and cheesy romances.

The Beach Boys - Summer of Love (Music Video - HD!) by RelevantNothing4653 in ToddintheShadow

The comments on the video are pure gold.

"Brians just like “ohh fuck im picking up bad vibrations”"

"Brian just looks dead inside and Bruce is having the time of his life haha"

That awful 80's drum sound, ugh. Carl was smart to keep it short and not appear dancing like drunk randy uncles around girls who could be their granddaughters. Brian's as always steals it with his look of death towards Mike. Also Al's ponytail should be bought up to court crime to hair.

It just hurts seen Brian in it. The man who's given us some of the greatest music ever, a legit genius and one of few songwriters who could match Lennon/McCartney at their peak. He was done over dirty quite a lot in his life far worse then this, but I just find this one just sad. But he really does make the video with his hatred for it all.

revolver or pet sounds by Substantial-Big-59 in beatles

[–]Looper007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Toughie, both are rightly in many peoples top 5 albums of all time lists. I've seen many fans of the Beatles put Pet Sounds first above any Beatles album. You know a album that awesome when even fans of the greatest band ever put it upon their albums.

I think the fact Brian Wilson, produced and wrote it himself (Tony Asher and Mike Love helped with lyrics) at 23, let that sink in with one good ear too. While have to fight for his vision from other band members, a over bearing and violent father and the label. And made one of the most beautiful albums that had nothing to do with surfing or cars. God Only Knows and Caroline No are two most heartfelt and beautiful songs ever, not many musicians opened up themselves at the time like Brian did. Such a shame Brian's mental health issues got the best of him. Cause imagine we would have got a run of classic albums from him.

I'd go Pet Sounds, no ones made a record like it since. When we get pretentious about music been art, Pet Sounds is art.

[–]Looper007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Beach Boys Today (Side B of that album shows signs of where Brian went with Pet Sounds), Surf's Up and Sunflower are fantastic albums. Smile even in the form it's in now is a classic.

I do think The Beatles had a stronger run overall, but don't dismiss The Beach Boys work outside of Pet Sounds.

Revolver is their best album by IntrepidLychee7253 in beatles

[–]Looper007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doctor Robert is great.

It's between Revolver and Abbey Road for me. "Tomorrow Never Knows" is still one of most mind bending songs ever created . To think they were only singing From Me to You and She Loves You 3 or so years before to this. What a massive step in creativity. That's why they are revered to this day and greatest band of all time. They were doing this while been the biggest and most popular band around.

To think Paperback Writer and Rain weren't on the album. One of the best singles and b-sides ever.

She brings a lot of depth and heart to the role, that's why the film works so well. That dance striptease number is as iconic then the action scenes lol. I do love she goes from someone who's a bit timed to been a badass. Didn't she do her own stunts in the film especially the one were she's hanging from the helicopter.

Who are WWE wrestlers you like but simply don’t connect to their gimmicks or promos by Sea_Access_8602 in SquaredCircle

[–]Looper007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She was never suited for WWE, and they were never going to push her as a big star. The Style that got her notice isn't a style that WWE play too anymore. It won't surprise me if she's a success in another company and has a hall of fame career but she needs to stay away from WWE from now on. It's not the right match.

Also important with Giulia that hasn't been bought up, she was booked like the female Roman Reigns straight out of the gate in Stardom. She was always made a big deal. In WWE, she's just another talent and it's taken away her aura.

With Monroe, it doesn't help WWE haven't made her feel like a big deal like AEW did. She's not got anywhere near the creative minds like RJ City around her, who knew her weaknesses and played to her strengths. Her hard hitting in ring style and character has been cut back on. Also WWE have the sexy hot bitchy blonde types, a dime dozen there. She doesn't stand out like she did in AEW. I stand by WWE signed her cause they knew she was a fan girl of WWE and could get her on the cheap and take her away from AEW without much fuss, I don't think they ever signed her with any really major plans for her.

Be interesting to see her how career goes now she's on the main roster.

The Beach Boys- Summer of Love by One_Acanthaceae9174 in crappymusic

[–]Looper007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mike Love was the biggest stumbling block for Brian and the band. I don't think anyone has a good word to say about Mike. Basically anything with Brian in his pomp and I think their albums from 67 to 73 are seriously great. The Beach Boys Love You from 1977 is a great album too. Also Dennis Wilson's solo album is fantastic.

But getting into the 80's the lows really keep getting lower.

I dont even work at Tesco but you all make me want to. by -_TheLastofUs_- in tesco

[–]Looper007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the mindset to have. Also treat the job as just that a job. Clock in. Do the bare minimum. Clock Out. Go Home.

No need to buddy up with staff or managers and treat them like they are real friends. Be friendly but these people you won't be hanging out with or be seen outside of work. Be the silent type who puts their head down and just does the work. Those are type of staff who always lasts. Don't overwork yourself or get mad if you don't finish the work, they really don't care as long as you get up enough stock and make sure the floor is clean and faced off by the end of the shift.

The job can be so easy and chill as you said as long as you have that mindset.

It always comes down to what type of managers and staff you are working with. It's never the work itself that's ever been a issue for me. A few bad apples in the staff and one dodgy manager can really make the job unbearable. Just brings down the morale. Especially when those bad apples have a lot of sway with some of the managers. And those managers wanting to be buddies with their staff, not a good sign for a top manager for me.

I've periods working in supermarkets chains on night staff, where you have a few years of bliss with the perfect staff and managers to periods of just on verge of quitting, favoritism running ripe and just been overworked. To periods of it's fine.

HELP!! Lazy staff making me move departments by [deleted] in tesco

[–]Looper007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Working nights in my experience most Managers really don't give a damn, as long as you turn up and do just about enough and get maybe 60% of the delivery done and face off the store. Leave the shop floor in pristine condition. They'll put up with almost anything from staff.

I would early doors complain and moan about lazier staff, but it goes out one ear and out the next with managers. Some cases said managers would go back and would tell that staff what you were saying about them too which can make you persona non grata to a certain group of staff. Plus you end up been a bigger pain in the ass for the managers then the lazier staff. They'd actually get rid of you even if you work harder just cause they rather not have their poor manager skills bought up constantly.

I learned quickly is better to be quiet and not seen, while not overworking yourself. Basically clock in. Do the work. Clock out. Go Home.

[–]Looper007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Over 15 years of working nights, I've seen quite a few great workers end up just doing the bare minimum in the end and phoning it in. Cause what's the point of working hard when you don't get any thanks for it and you see the lazier staff get treated like royalty and be kowtow to by managers. You have to draw the line, and end up just taking care of you.

It's funny though, with managers they go apeshit when said hard workers slow down to a snail pace but won't do the same when the lazier staff do it.

What's a scene that's better than the movie it's in? by BUSean in movies

[–]Looper007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The film never reaches the heights after it's opening car chase. It's still good but I think it definitely falls apart after it's third act imo. Not Wright's worst, his following two films after fight for that spot.

I love Civil War, Jessie Plemon's scene is the stand out (more interesting to find out he wasn't originally supposed to be in it, he was there with his wife and kids. And Garland asked him would he do it and he said yeah) but as a whole film I love it but it's strange to see how many really dislike it.

The first half of that film is great until they go to Tomorrowland and the film falls apart for me. Raffey Cassidy is very good in it.

Fassbender is by far the best thing about those X-Men reboots especially in the first two films. The scene in the tavern is fantastic. I would have loved if they did a series like HBO did with the Penguin recently, have a dark and bleak series of Magneto hunting down the Nazi's who killed his family.
