JGL seems off to me. Is the character meant to be stiff? I feel like he’s regressed and I used to love his movies.

[melancolour]

IMO he made himself uggo when he beefed up for Looper, and has never recovered

[pseudonygma]

He needs to get off the Leonardo Dicaprio School of Thespians and chill tf out. He was so much more enjoyable to watch when he actually had fun in his films. The weird showman/gameshow host persona he puts on during press junkets isn't doing him any favors either. Idk if it's anxiety or what but he didn't use to do this; it seemed to have snowballed after he did Don Jon.

Lol I know exactly what you mean with the showman persona!!

[bellwetherr]

why do i feel like we get these like based on true story movies/tv shows like 5 minutes after shit happens

[kairoso]

they are bc everyone's fighting for the rights/ getting it on the market first

[msbombtastic]

ikr, and every time, I ask myself who the fuck cares?
like not to be rude, but who legitimately wants to see this story play out in a film, like genuinely? idk :/ lmao

[bellwetherr]

lmao no i mean, i'd much rather read a really good op ed instead of this

[robertsbox_xo]

i saw eva victor is in this and i love her so maybe i'll watch...

Should be interesting. I’m working at a tech “startup” right now. I will never work in tech again after this, not only is it a mess internally, run by a bunch of young dudes with massive egos, it’s totally soulless and morally bankrupt. Before this, I was at ad agencies for the entirety of my career, if that tells you anything.

i worked briefly for a finsta startup and omg it was honestly the worst job i ever had

[warwarwar]

I thought finsta meant fake Instagram account? How does a finsta have a start up?

[misato]

hahaha omg I meant fintech

[therearewords]

What a dumb title.

[izzzzy23]

it's the name of the book

apparently the show is an anthology though, each season focusing on a new business. so will they change the name every season?
