Agreed. Wanted WWB to be better than it was. Thought it was pretty formulaic. I kept waiting for a big payoff but it never really happened.
yep. I liked it but I wanted to love it. Nothing about it was really unique.

When he first starts playing that arcade game and the dude is like, "you gotta go your own way", I was like, eh, yay cliches ARE COMING!!!

The Spectacular Now
watched this last night and I really really liked it. I get the since that a lot of the interactions between sutter and aimee were improvised because it looked genuine and sincere. A great film

But the whole movie felt like a giant, great cliche' of awesome to me though. It's cliche' in all the best ways, I guess. I fricking loved TWWB. Thought it was one of the better movies I saw last year. Just a fantastic trip back to when you were that age and all the feelings and emotions that exist in that time. Even though it didn't really line up with my childhood, I still felt like it was a great trip down memory lane, if that makes sense.

And Rockwell was awesome. I didn't even hate Maya Rudolph, and I usually want to slap the shite out of her.
