Very funny, very good movie!


I reckon this movie was *beep* hilarious. The pause and stare after he says "you've never seen Taxi Driver?" and then carrying on and then repeating "you've never seen Taxi Driver?"

I thought that T.J kinda bombed the audition. The guy who got it was too big. Though that he later kept asking "was that too big?" was really funny. Too bad he turned into a dick. Acting all "cool" *puke*

Sigourney Weaver was brilliant. Horrible awful character played really well.

David Duchovny's characters wife was really sweet.

That british network dude pretty much blows. As someone else mentioned, a character in the process of buying into all the *beep* that makes television near unwatchable. He talks about the importance of family but in the end sticks with the job. It would've been cool if he'd got the show through and then left with his family but that doesn't sound like what this movie was really about.

It's sad in a soul crushing way that Davids characters vision was *beep* with. He had a really personal story to tell but... the jaws of mediocrity managed to clamp down. It looks like he was trying to do the best thing for his family which is nice. Still, crap about the dead brother changing into a dead mother.. uggh.

"This character is a free baller" .. "that's good to know.. especially for the women whose handling Robs clothes" .. "it makes sense" .. "you did your homework"

The Travis Bickle version of the funeral scene is pretty funny. Seeing him doing an over the top imitation of De Niro. ".. about BASE BALL.. and NIPPLES.. the guy you RELATE TO THE MOST"

in reference to the cut of the mother dies version "maybe we should *beep* it a little more, make it even lamer" haha

also like the part where Davids characters manager says "yes", that it's exhausting bending the truth to keep him from getting upset.

The Drexler Chronicles is a pretty *beep* name for a show.

and lastly - slut wars, haha - 19 shares mother *beep*!
