Sometimes, this is the appropriate reaction fwiw.

I pretty sure that's what they were going for. Top five movie of the 90s.

We went to the new musical "Oh Africa, Brave Africa." It was a laugh riot.

Patrick Bateman: Do you like Huey Lewis and The News?

Paul Allen: They're OK.

Patrick Bateman: Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor.

Paul Allen: Hey Halberstram.

Patrick Bateman: Yes, Allen?

Paul Allen: Why are there copies of the style section all over the place, d-do you have a dog? A little chow or something?

Patrick Bateman: No, Allen.

Paul Allen: Is that a rain coat?

Patrick Bateman: Yes it is! In '87, Huey released this, Fore, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip to be Square", a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself.


Good entertaining movie. The first time I watched it, I was just watched in awe of what would happen next (especially once he put on the raincoat).

My favorite line in the movie. And that subtle look of self-satisfaction at the end of his spiel kills me everytime.

Love it. I could watch it over and over.

I don't want you to get drunk, but that's a very fine Chardonnay you're not drinking.

I haven't read it, but I did hear about one of the scenes from a friend who had. He told me about the rat and and cheese scene

True. It definitely feel like a 90s movie. I just had to be that guy.

It really makes the 80s seem like a terrible decade.

Patrick Bateman: Did you know that Whitney Houston's debut LP, called simply Whitney Houston had 4 number one singles on it? Did you know that, Christie?

Elizabeth: [laughing] You actually listen to Whitney Houston? You own a Whitney Houston CD? More than one?

Patrick Bateman: It's hard to choose a favorite among so many great tracks, but "The Greatest Love of All" is one of the best, most powerful songs ever written about self-preservation, dignity. Its universal message crosses all boundaries and instills one with the hope that it's not too late to better ourselves. Since, Elizabeth, it's impossible in this world we live in to empathize with others, we can always empathize with ourselves. It's an important message, crucial really. And it's beautifully stated on the album.
