Anyone seen Hollywoodland?
By every single one of my metrics, it is a gawd-awful movie.

And I continue to watch it when it is on.

What say you?

1. I've seen Jiminy Glick in La-La Land, is it similar?

2. Same acting talent in the male lead, but...
alas, they are kind of different.

3. I've seen it
aside from finding it cool to look at my current hometown as it was in a different era, yeah, it pretty well sucked.

4. I am envious! I love Hollywood/LA
But why do I keep watching the damn movie?

Am I looking for nuance?

6. I do too...
love it here, I mean. ;)

I have no idea why you keep watching it! I have the movie poster up in my living room (which is decorated w/ movie posters), but really I just wanted the "Hollywoodland" part.

As for the movie itself, I only saw it once.

7. I was in Santa Monica/Hollywood last year and LOVED IT
I miss the west coast so badly.

And as far as the movie?

Maybe I like the 4 shots of Ben Affleck's bare butt.

Who knows?

5. You are a masochist
seek professional help before you devolve further and start watching Owen Wilson movies not directed by Wes Anderson and end up trying to kill yourself the way he did
