I was trying to remember the name of that movie.
I had to look online to figure out what the hell I had just watched. I had absolutely no clue.
The gangster movie with Jack Nicholson and the rat drawing, can't remember the name of it. I've watched that one twice and I still don't get it.
Just looked it up. The Departed. It baffles me.

This is another one where the book helps the movie make sense. It's crazy, man, crazy.

1408. Another great King story.

Towards the end of the film you can hear the operator on the other end of the phone say something like "even if you get out of this room, you'll never leave".

I took that to mean that at the very end of the movie it's just another con job, he's really still in the room.

There Will Be Blood. I love that movie, love it, but the ending always strikes me as rushed. Maybe there's something about it I never got, but it just never struck me as proper for a film as awesome as it was.

I've always kinda agreed with that thought Joe. I think because the movie itself is almost so anti-climatic until the very end, you are just waiting for stuff to happen, and in the last 8 seconds it all does. I love the movie, anything Daniel Day Lewis is in, is by default amazing, but it has that crappy, climax/rush the ending culmination, although the scene in the in home bowling ally is pretty awesome

Tarantino referred to the brief case as a MacGuffin, he wanted it vague. You're still talking about it...??

Did it matter what was in the brief case?

MacGuffin clicky
