I really wanted to love the way way back, but just liked it instead.


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.

Haven't seen Now.

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
