While my hubby really liked this movie, I was much more ambivalent. I felt like the actors did a great job. Very good performances from pretty much everyone involved. But I just have trouble connecting to movies when I can't find anyone to LIKE. I told my sister that it was a movie about a d-bag (pardon my grossness), and his d-bag friends and their d-bag lives and how awesome they think they all are. I was disgusted that Jordan Belfort seems to think that he is some kind of hero.

Ready, Player One was recommended to me by a dear friend and I loved it. I've listened to the audiobook version so much that I may have parts of it memorized. I have deep fears for this being turned into a movie. I think it would be very difficult to film, not even how expensive it would be to get the rights to all of the movies/books/tv shows mentioned in the novel. I'd also be afraid they'd make the characters all sexy and not at all the average looking people they were in the book. Has the author's second book been released?

I haven't watched any of the episodes with Bishop in it yet, but what I hear isn't giving me the warm fuzzies. I had felt, by the end, that Ziva was overused, but I MISS HER! I've watched about 8 episodes of the current season and it's not the same without her. That being said, I would almost rather they didn't replace her at all. Tony and TIm are fine on their own.

ITA with this. I am actually just hoping the writers actually HAVE an endgame in mind and aren't just winging it.
