Here are my reasons why Jeremy Piven is an "A-list" actor over Ron Perlman:
ReplyDeleteJeremy Piven has 3 Emmys and 1 Golden Globe for playing Ari Gold on Entourage. (2006 - 2008)
Ron Perlman has 1 Golden Globe for playing The Beast in '89.
I think the majority of people would know who plays Ari Gold on Entourage rather then who plays Hellboy.
Jeremy Piven is big in the Hollywood scene. What the heck is a Hellboy anyway? I don't know.
It's Mike Epps, not Omar Epps, I need to fact check these podcasts before you post them.
My Top Ten Movies of 2009:
1. (500) Days of Summer
2. Inglourious Basterds
3. District 9
4. Star Trek
5. Avatar
6. Next Day Air
7. Sherlock Holmes
8. Watchmen
9. Observe and Report
10. Taken (Based on its US release)
I noticed some Dance Gavin Dance on soundtrack, did you give the new CD a listen?
*Air high-five, Jesse*
what i the air five for? just cause we are both awesome?
ReplyDelete*air high five*
I totally agree with you about Jeremy Piven's A-list status over Ron Pearlman.
Cool Top 10 list!
I watched Next Day Air. I'll share my opinion on it on the next podcast. It wouldn't have maybe my top 10 list though. Maybe top 20.

ReplyDeleteHaha, you gave me an air high-five during the podcast because we both did not care for Terminator: Salvation.
ReplyDeletelol that's right I totally forgot about that! Nice!
ReplyDeleteJeremy Piven's highest grossing starring role: Don Ready in The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard = $15,122,676 U.S. Gross (no Worldwide Gross)
ReplyDeleteRon Perlman's highest grossing starring role: Hellboy in Hellboy 2: The Golden Army = $75,986,503 U.S. Gross, $160,388,063 Worldwide Gross
Piven has a higher lifetime Gross, but only because he rode the coattails of big name successful movies with such significant and memorable roles as Ross Giggens in Scary Movie 3 ($155,200,000 Worldwide) and Versace Salesman in Rush Hour 2 ($347,425,832 Worldwide).
In closing, Ron Perlman was in Police Academy 7: Mission To Moscow. What's more A-List than that?
I actually discovered that I already had that Dance Gavin Dance album on my computer. Is it the new one?
Oh yeah, and HOLY SHIT! Observe & Report made your Top 10? I didn't think you liked it that much. More than Taken?

rian when ever you talk about the halloween remake I just roll my eyes. your wrong.
Joel-
ReplyDeleteI think you will really enjoy The Hurt Locker.
I will never understand why you are avoiding Avatar. The other movies you avoided I can understand.
GI Joe was terrible. And it wasn't really JGL's fault. He was barely in it. And when Cobra Commander has a mask I just pretend its just some stunt actor.
I really want to see The Road and Up In the Air. I have a feeling that The Road would have made my top ten list of 09.
How many movies did you see last year?
I believe I saw 17 movies released this year. Movies are expensive I only go if its something I definitely want to see.
ReplyDeleteI'm avoiding avatar because I don't care about avatar . when you guys reviewed it, you mentioned how visually stunning and amazing the special effects are but how the story is something you've seen before. I don't care about special effects. especially special effects that cost 400 million dollars. 400 million they souldnt just look good...them damn blue people should pop out of the screen and make me a sammich and do my taxes for 400 million dollars.
to me as much as everyone preaches about avatar, I cant get excited about it. I just dont care at the end of the day its all Just fake stuff and pretty colors. blue people on dinosaurs fighting helicopters and giant robots. to me its the same as a transformers 2 or 2012 big fake cgi things exploding. sure it might be the best and biggest cgi things exploding movie ever! but I still don't care.
those movies are the same its the wizard of oz big, powerful menacing and then you look behind the curtain and its just a little dude.
Honestly I'm indifferent to avatar I only put it on my movies I avoided list to get killah all worked up after his halloween comments.
Happiness is the new album by Dance Gavin Dance and the song you used is the last track. Make sure you listen to: Tree Village, NASA, Happiness, Don't Tell Dave, and Strawberry Swisher Pt. 2.
ReplyDeleteYeah dude, remember when we left the theatre, you were like, "It was ok, but that ending!" and I was like, "I loved it! I thought it was great!" I gave it 5 stars right away. It's deeper than Taken, but Taken is still badass. Now Seth Rogen needs to star in an action film and never stop making that face he makes as he's being escorted out of the mall after the massive cop fight.
@ Joel:
ReplyDelete"1. G.I Joe- the first bad movie JGL has been in with the possible exception of h20."
You do realize that JGL is in Killshot, which you also put on your worst films list, right?
And I'm not wrong about Halloween, because my opinion is that it's way better than the original.
I could argue with you to the ends of the Earth about AVATAR, but I know that it would be a waste of time. I'll simply say that you should see it before you trash it. If you don't want to see it, indifference is one thing, but blind, misguided judgement is another. Then again, I'm sure that 90% of your arguments against the film are, as you say, merely meant to inspire a reaction from me.
@ Brian:
I guess I didn't remember that. I only recall that several months ago when I was saying how much I wanted to see it again you sounded really surprised and I guess it gave me the impression that you didn't think it was worth the fuss.
damn I forgot he was in there
ReplyDeleteto be fair JGL is the only good thing about killshot. when he gets shot in the face I turned to my buddy DAX and said he just killed the only good thing in the movie.
I tired to be indifferent to Avatar and I really don't have anything against it. But when a movie is that popular and so many people are in to it that answer is just unacceptable.
"hey you see avatar"
" no, doesn't really interest me."
"what?! no you have to see it! its amazing!!!!!"
thats happened to me a bunch of times since the movie came out.
I'm glad the movie was everything you wanted it to be, glad it was worth the wait. But lets be honest you made up your mind about that movie three years ago when it was announced.
is it really that much more complicated then what I've said with out seeing it? is there that much more to it then " humans show up, humans bad, human becomes blue guy, meets blue lady, falls in love, white guy as blue guy fights bad humans? "
@ Joel
ReplyDeleteYou can break almost any movie down into simple terms like that and make it sound meaningless. My favorite movie is Aliens, and you could do the same to that film. Some of Jesse's favorite movies are the LotR trilogy, and you could do it to that movie. You could do it to any movie in your Top 7 films of the year.
Just because a movie can be simplified into dumbed-down terms doesn't mean anything.
And no, I didn't make up my mind about AVATAR three years ago. If it sucked I wouldn't have named it my #1 movie of the year. As it turns out, it's pretty awesome, and I'm not the only person who thinks so, and I doubt that every person who likes it decided that they would three years ago.
I still don't understand your hostility toward AVATAR. You're not interested. That's fine. Just because a lot of people are telling you that you should watch it before you write it off doesn't mean that you should take out your annoyance on the film. If anything, I'd say that it is you who has made up your mind about the movie before having seen it.
