Some shit went down 3 years ago.

We were all restricted to base for about a month, except for travel from base to base or home to base if you lived off base. After a couple weeks, dependents were allowed to go off base. For the last three months I was there, we had a midnight curfew. I heard the curfew was going for a couple months after I left, but I didn’t hear when it was lifted.

That was the only time time

we had any kind of extended restriction in my 3 plus years there. It helped me justify getting out at that time.

Somebody fell out of the LF stands trying to get a ball that Josh flipped to him

But apparently that Oakland bullpen lived up to their advance billing and got him on a stretcher.

So

I’ve been trying to get Ben to see “Crimes and Misdemanors” for over a decade. Tell him it is a great movie, that he’ll relate to certain parts of it, that I think he’ll really enjoy it.

He says no, because Woody Allen movies suck.

I ask him which ones he’s seen, and he says none, he just can tell that they suck.

by Adam J. Morris on Jul 7, 2011 9:01 PM CDT reply actions  

that sounds like the most Ben thing ever.

What’s weird is that I think his sense of humor, from what I’ve seen on here, would jibe pretty well with Allen’s acidic views.

Snark, this got buried in GDT2

Admission: I thought there was a decent symmetry between Owen Wilson’s halting cadences schtick and The Classic Woody. But yeah, what are we measuring Woody Leading Man performances against — fuckin’ Jason Biggs?

Actually it’s Woody’s fault, ratcheting up our expectations w/ Vicky Cristina. Which turned out to be (cringe) some kind of Aubrey Huff clutch jack.

I agree Marion didn’t run away with it, like Radha Mitchell somehow did w/ Melinda x2. (Will Ferrell as Woody? Pffffh, uyuk yuk.)

Rather than another Woody subthread

Snark, re: Wilson acting like Allen, I think it’s more his writer’s voice is so singular in his protagonists that they can’t help but be surrogates for his own persona.

Someone who I think pulled it off exceptionally well, who I don’t like as an actor, is John Cusack in Bullets Over Broadway, which is one of my favorites of his.

"beiacte like you hjave to read tha at ovie and then you read the eholwe thin g an d but ibecause you dont want to and then if when ifo u dont read te lyrics but inot becaise ists a song but its like the wordfs sand stuff wehat you do, but you read it, but when you dont whic that is the point of thwat i am saying you are so god fdam dammnit fucking , becauset now our ost yobecuasee ttyou havent read i , and then yo go iwht poprocrn!!!" - TagDon'tTweet, 06/23/11

by vfn on Jul 7, 2011 9:04 PM CDT up reply actions  

I don't think there was any reason for Wilson to mimic Allen in "Midnight in Paris";

based on his dialogue, it wasn’t at all an Allen-like character. And he does write some — I mean, Javier Bardem obviously had a supporting/ensemble role in “Vicky Cristina Barcelona,” but he wasn’t Allenesque in the slightest. And “Match Point,” horrible as it was, also lacked that character…
