Ok I recommend everyone except Joe watch 30 Rock then.  The only two actors I absolutely refuse to watch any movie they're in are Matthew Lillard and Ryan Reynolds, f*ck I hate those guys.

And Charles Grodin rules, who doesn't like Grodin?

Although there are many actors I hate(I won't dare list them here, since they're likely most people's favorites), I'll still give their films a chance if they appear to be decent on their own. However, I don't think that'll ever happen with Matthew Lillard though. :wink:

I like 30 Rock, but the second season is already getting noticibly more gimmicky wacky kinda like when Seinfeld past its prime. In the one commentary track I listened to, Trace Morgan sounded even crazier than Tracy Jordan, only extremely sedated instead of manic. :P

You obviously never saw his famous scene in Glengarry Glen Ross.
Great movie. I always recommend that folks check out "Salesman" (1968) as a companion piece. I just love watching both of those movies together.

I only saw the end of Titanic where that bitch (I like the actress, but the character was a total cunt) let Leo die when there was more than enough room on the piece of thingy she was floating on.  Leo is the shit- he's one of my favorite actors- but I'll be damned if I'll sit through that movie just to see him die for no reason at the end.

 I'm gonna sound totally gay for saying this, but that Romeo and Juliet movie set in the present(or something like it) starring Leo was pretty f*cking cool. That opening gas station scene was great. 9mm swords  :D
I'm gonna sound totally gay as well, but "O" is a neat movie based on Othello. The movie changes some aspects of the play, but it is pretty darn neat how "O" follows Othello.

That is truly, truly sad that they needed to pick a name so close to the real actor's name for that character.  Probably because the dipshit "actor" who plays him has trouble enough remembering his own name.  I don't know why he is allowed to be alive.

You have a point there. If you start out sucking in the worst way, it's pretty hard to go past your prime.

haha. I have to agree with B_T; Seinfeld lost its way when Larry David left the show. You can see it plain as day. Not that there weren't any good episodes during the post Larry David era, but the humour just seemed forced.

I  thought Larry David was just absent from most of the last season.

He came back to do the final episode, though.

But GUTS is right-- Seinfeld is the shit, through and through.

Not sure if you guys are meaning the shit as in the good or bad way. I've never been into Seinfeld myself.

I like Sanford & Son.

Keranu, whenever "shit" is qualified by the definite article, it has a positive connotation.

Whenever it's on it's own, it's taken as what you would expect.

Simply, "the shit" = a good thing, "shit" = shit.

I'm gonna have to go against the grain here and say I don't enjoy Seinfeld at all. That's not a statement of quality, just a statement of my preference.

You're not going against the grain, you're just joining my grain. :)
