It's really interesting to see actors talking in a comfortable setting. <br /><br />As for the Rory/Vince debacle, I kind of saw it as Vince hinting that Rory was lying about his less than humble origins in LA. He was badgering Rory about details to the story because they didn't make sense, and Rory reacted by freezing up and getting frustrated. I think he was trying to out the fact that Rory fudged the details of his start in LA to make it seem like he really struggled, rather than making fun of him for struggling.

You know... not so bad, either of them. I love that Armageddon embraces how goddamn BIG it is, you know? Daredevil is another story... I've only seen that once and probably won't revisit it. Just not for me<br /><br />I love Farrell in that episode though.

I find them both to just be fun to watch even when almost everyone else I don't like them. Also rather funny Colin Farrell saying he won't get Alexander. I wonder if he actually believed it.

Back when I got DVDs on Netflix, they had the entire first season available on DVD. I flew through the whole thing and wished there was more.

I mean, who in their right mind WOULD turn down that much dough?

Its honesty is what made it so great, and I would love to see more episodes (but yeah, not on IFC).<br /><br />Gyllenhaal smoking that cigar was almost as funny as Christina Ricci smoking her cigar.

I really enjoyed it when it originally ran and have taken a peek back here and there since.<br /><br />I totally love how Jon talks about keeping in real and small--ok, Iron Man-- but I think I could change my tune for that many zeros on a check, too!<br /><br />Going to rewatch a couple more...so much fun! And, yes Faizon, the secret to the Friars Club is that they're hiding all of the slave ships!

Some of my favorite moments involve Maggie Gyllenhaal smoking a cigar and making a mess out of the smoke while John Sayles and Jon Favreau are talking. Burt Reynolds praising Favreau for playing Rocky Marciano. Faizon Love talking about a horrible movie he did w/ Ice Cube as it was some lame biker movie and he talked about how shit of a director Joseph Khan was. <br /><br />I just love some of the honesty on that show. I wish it would come back. Not on IFC, that channel sucks now.thevoid99https://www.blogger.com/profile/03055459287396592446noreply@blogger.com
