He's done some really good stuff... but not without a few cheeseball roles/storylines thrown in- Pelham 123, Book of Eli, Unstoppable, The Preacher's Wife...

But he's done some very underrated stuff as well. Antwone Fisher was very good and an early role with Morgan Freeman in Glory (one of my favorite movies ever).

I think we can get most popular or box office earnings mixed up with best actor.

Some guys have won an Oscar in years when others were far more deserving. Doesn't mean the losing actor is not as good.

I like guys who are very nuanced or make you forget who they are.

Tough to say who the best is.

So is Flight really good? I know a couple people that saw it and said it was just ok. I really liked the premise of the movie and wanted to go see it but haven't yet.

Depends really, I've read some people say they found it hypocritical or preachy. I really enjoyed it. Denzel's character was pretty complex and really a joy to watch.

Agree 100%

I read a Michael Crichton book a decade ago called Airframe. The movie Flight seems a lot like that book. The book was awful which is why I will probably wait to see the movie. Stupid I know.

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      Canes vs Rags 7pm

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
