Eastwood is certainly not an average director, and Tarantino is not overrated. You guys are getting a bit too cute here.

-Chris Williams' brother was murdered for a gold chain. People forget that.
-Beastie Boys all morning.
-Threatening to fire our housecleaner has quickly become a favorite pastime of mine. Not to his face or anything, but with my wife. He's money... no way would I fire him. But it's remarkable all of the stresses that I can correlate to his services, which are a luxury. Doesn't even have to make sense, really. It's just effective.
House not tidy enough? Is ____ even worth it at this point?!
Kids misbehaving? What's the GD point of a housekeeper if the kids are just going to storm through here all day?!
Late for a meeting? I can't spend my GD time worried about keeping the house in order so it can be cleaned every couple weeks!
No food in the fridge? Maybe we should direct some of the housekeeper money towards groceries then... this is ridiculous!

-Only 75 more regular season games until the baseball playoffs.

Tony Scott? Are you shitting me?
What about your grass cutter? Is she on the brink of being canned, too?
I now feel for Vern the way you guys looked at me for my ignorant NBA take.
Anyone ready the B-Boys book yet? I got it back in the winter but have yet to crack it open. Been on an 80's wrestling kick and reading books about the territory structure, and death thereof.
Just received Outlaws of Cave In Rock (after reading another book on the Harpe Bros) for you W. Ky peeps and Above Suspicion for your E. Ky peeps.

I will always stand my ground when it comes to movie takes. I'm admittedly a film snob. I'm fine with it though. I know what's good.
That would be me.
-I'm sorry, I figured everyone had their house cleaned a couple times a month. No brainer.
-A "he," indeed. Married with kids. He just throws his headphones on and hustles all/air cleaning houses. Deals primarily in cash. I mean, I think he's on to something, frankly.

Your house gets dirty, you kind of clean it up once a month, or not. It doesn't even matter.
Tarntino would firm #2 on that list.

Yeah screw the Oscar’s.
I’d hold out for a Vern instead.
Hey, if I ran the Oscars, Boogie Nights would have beat Titanic for Best Picture in '97. I'm sure you'd agree with that, Doc.

Welp, we now live in a world where Lil Nas X has the longest standing #1 hit in the history of our country. As absurd as this is, at this point you just have to tip the cap to the fella and Billy Ray.

His run from 1986-1995 was incredible.
There is no defending Tony Scott on a top 5 of all time list. Not even Tony’s mother would put him there.
Anyone else get caftan in loserville mixed up with catsfanbgky?
Overtime he posts I expect a scathing response from black mamba followed by a shitty slap fight.

Eastwood is great but some of his more acclaimed movies like "Million Dollar Baby" and "Mystic River" are a one time viewing.
One time viewing doesn’t diminish a movie. I’d rather not watch Schindler’s List every few months, but it was a great movie.
Some of you are just insufferable c#nts.
Million Dollar Baby was great, but my top 3 Eastwood:
Gran Torino
Unforgiven
Outlaw Josey Wales

Eastwood has made some great movies but simplicity and no nonsense storytelling are his thing. He is not an "artist" in terms of his direction. Anyone seriously arguing for Tony Scott (or Ridley Scott for that matter) on a list of all time great directors needs to broaden their horizons. It's like putting James Patterson on a list of all time great writers.
You are stating that an "artist" has to be complex in its final product....Clint's simplicity and story telling are what makes him an "artist" in his own way. Keeping it simple isn't always as easy as it appears.
Pick a movie. Grab a Coke and some popcorn. Not that hard, really.
The 2 best Tony Scott movies are remakes, Man on Fire and Pelham 123.
Ridley Scott - American Gangster & Gladiator. Rest are meh.
Eastwood learned from Sergio Leone, the master of story telling with character development and amazing camera work

My 7 year olds all star season has come to an end. Good summer, all things considered. Went out with a bang, 4-0 final weekend, 3rd championship of the summer. Dude had a diving catch in centerfield that made the opposing yuppy fans from Lexington all in a tizzy. Snow-coned it in the glove, got up, gold chain dangling, and flipped the ball to blue. TFP. Sent them home to their quiet little Chevy chase cottages while the boys from nicholasville howled like caged coyotes.
My daughter made me the faggiest little bracelet of all time last week. Rainbow beads, little multicolored hearts, the works. Pretty awkward showing up on big commercial construction sites with this thing on, but I love my beautiful little princess and it makes her so happy everyday when she’s me wearing it so if anyone has a problem with it you can just get lost!!
KSR gripe: whenever Matt “reads a tweet” that is painfully obviously just a made up lead-in for something he wants to talk about.
Someone tweets in “Matt, I saw you this weekend walking down the road and it looked like you were thinking about the new Tyler Childers album, what do you think?”
I liked the lion king. thought it was visually great and I liked the Timon and pumba characters just fine. I’ve seen much worse this year. The new dumbo was trash. Aladdin was ok. Toy story 4 was stupid. LEGO movie 2 was terrible.

Really hate agreeing with UKO, but complexity doesn’t necessarily = great. Hemingway wasn’t complicated and he’s one of the best authors of all time.
Most avant-garde movies can eat shit, for the record.

lolz. Yup. Painfully obvious.
The whole LeBron celebrating his kid's play "controversy" is dumb -- and basically just shows how ready everyone is for football season just so we can stop these ridiculously manufactured dramas -- but at least it led to this sublime use of the pejorative "beta:"
LOL at Hinshaw saying that Terry Wilson is going to throw the ball "35 to 40" times a game.
Piglet might have something to say about that, Darrin.
I mean Alien and Blade Runner are classics and the director's cut of Kingdom of Heaven is incredible (I've never seen a director's cut transform a movie so much to correct studio interference.)
I get about a dozen FALSE or Nopes on my timeline every year, so consider yourself lucky.
I get those two mixed up and I get Rogue and wildcat Willy mixed up.
