I'm not sure what that was about but you have my attention...

Do you know anything about Nathan Fielder?

He's been somewhere attached to some of the best subtle, dry, cringe comedy of the past few years. Nathan for You is a great show.

One of his best bits that went unnoticed for a weirdly long time, when Instagram first came out he would post selfies, and he happened to usually be wearing sunglasses.

I'm not much on the cringe but the rest seems right down my alley. No idea who he is. Will watch...

Ok, just watched the Dumb Starbucks bit and it's every bit as brilliant as Hotep Jesus and his trolling.

I'm in...

He was pretty damn funny in Tour de Pharmacy.

Yeah, I chose the Instagram thing because I wanted to pique interest if someone is unfamiliar with him without spoiling by just putting out his greatest hits.

Wading into Nathan's unitiatied work is a fun prospect. Particularly since he presents it in a way where you have to decide for yourself what actually is funny, if that makes sense.

It's not punchlines or gags, it's just matter-of-factly presented material that dips into absurdity and you get to discover for yourself where the absurdity becomes hilarious.

One compact clip that captures his style is when he did a promo for a completely unrelated work 'How to With John Wilson' with it's own eccentricities [though Nathan was an EP on the show], and took slowly, subtly it in an entirely different direction.

The Beach Bum-- 7/10


Matthew McConaughey, Snoop Dogg, Jimmy Buffet, Jonah Hill, Martin Lawrence and Isla Fisher's lil sexy butt.





This is a weird movie but a fun one. If you need the conventional storytelling with stakes and resolution this probably isnt for you.
Imagine if Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, The Big Lebowski, Mean Streets, and One Flew Over the outstanding citizenoo's Nest all had a gangbang and made a lil bastard movie. This is that bastard.


This is a rollercoaster ride of straight WTF with good music to boot.

I'm not really sure how to describe this outside of dark comedy and satire. But it was awesome.

I watched and thoroughly enjoyed the Gray Man. I wasn't expecting a ton, but the action was good (very good), production values were great (even though it was pretty ambitious), and the performances were good.

I didn't dig the CIA guy. My wife said he was in Bridgerton or some shit. IDK, but that's really the only gripe.

There was some really smart Dialogue and banter which makes some sense with the Russos. I was really impressed with Gossling. First, he looks really fucking good for 42 (fuck that dude LOL), but he was really magnetic. He was way better than Crazy Stupid Love or The Big Short as far as being charasmatic. And the action stuff, which some of it really was him and you can't fake. Much impressed.

Evans was funnier than I anticipated. Gossling too, but he can be funny pretty well.

It was pretty low stakes in terms of me watching it being invested in the outcome, but I really enjoyed it, and so did the wife, which was unexpected.

Vengeance is perhaps the best movie I've seen this year.

I watched the Most Dangerous Game.

Pretty good for an Amazon Flick. Kind of predictable but whatever, it’s a good time.

This looks like it might be entertaining.

Who else is psyched for the reboot of roadhouse with Jake Gyllenhall and it’s set in Florida.
