To me, oceans 11 and the first pirates of the Caribbean are the two movies that perfectly nail what light-hearted entertainment should be.


Weird to think how big Clooney was that Pitt was second fiddle...

Also weird to think that the movie is almost 25 years old.

Can we just stop for a second to appreciate how perfect this movie is?


No question! There’s not a thing I would change, and it’s a movie I can watch endlessly without getting bored. Oceans 11 is really the entire reason I’m a sucker for heist movies, and it remains the best at that.

Damn. Clooney gonna do a "So, you think I'm 75" scene?

He could have passed for 50 in that movie. Or 40. Not sure anybody would confuse him for being 75 now. Which is why I hope--and think--they do a little nod to it.

The more I think about it, the more I think this doesn't get made without Soderbergh. No matter the skill of the new director, it would either be a totally different movie or come off as a cheap knock off if they tried to mimic his style. And he was just as much a part of the ensemble as the cast. His directing style and Las Vegas are both characters in the movies as well. And I'm not sure Clooney or Pitt would make it without him. I could be wrong, though.
