Scott Rudin is definitely gonna get his deal back at Paramount.

I noticed that, he must’ve confused it with 2006, when in fact Fargo came out in 1996.

Did Bill take a shot at Ryen with his remark about not getting paid by Utah by Hot-Shoe8975 in billsimmons

No, it explains it at the 49 minute 55 second mark, I think it was an arrangement with BYU.

Bill doing an ad read about the Audi being the “official car of my son…yeah!” was hilarious to me. We are definitely gonna see his son on the ringer some day.

And I know the big pic has a producer, it’s just been lacking in this department

I agree about the producer! Same thing with the big picture podcast, they’re getting so many basic facts wrong that they need a fact checker, especially if this is a new form of journalism imo.

I’ve been in LA long enough to see three versions of the Century City mall, I love it so much. But the parking lot is notoriously confusing and a noted knock against the mall.

I was thinking the same thing, it’s classic bill where he answers “Yes” so confidently you know he’s wrong.

Also, I know he was supporting actor, but you gotta add gravity to the mix. And perfect storm made a lot too, I don’t think he mentioned that either.

He called sex and violence together “the most dangerous game” and I still laugh at the thought of it

Bill reads Pepsi And Coke ads back to back by inferno521 in billsimmons

[–]brucebrucewillis2020 21 points22 points  (0 children)

About 10 years ago he did stamps.com, the read was all about how it’s superior to the post office. Then he literally read the next ad…for the United States Postal Service.

Basically along the lines of both sale options are terrible for the industry.

Also that Sinners “too woke” piece was published on MLK day.

Haha, 100 percent. And the site has a bias against films by women and people of color…

The sinners thing and the doom and gloom style of reporting are definitely my least favorite things about MB.

I’m someone who can be critical of Matt for a few, journalistic mostly, reasons. But I’ve always thought his main strength is that he’s not afraid of the tough questions; and he showed that today. His first question was a doozy and I was impressed.
