    I love the movie “Coyote Ugly” because it’s all about moving to NYC from an exotic far-away location (New Jersey).

    TIL, and I'm sure I'm incredibly late on this, that the film (and memoir) EAT PRAY LOVE is the sequel to COYOTE UGLY because the latter is based on a piece Elizabeth Gilbert wrote for GQ in March 1997 about her experience bartending at the NYC establishment.

    Crimson Tide would win best picture if it was released today. Coyote Ugly should get a remake or legacy sequel. Con Air -no notes Gone in 60 -I think it’s secretly based on a true story The Rock- definitely secret James Bond movie.

    Tonights movie with my dad was Coyote Ugly. I‘d seen it a long time ago when I was a teen but I feel old now - how main character is laughably naive and I think a bar where they spray you if you ask for water would fuckin suck. Also 😬 at the biphobic rant in the beginning, it felt so out of place.

    > George Lucas desperately needs a good editor Literally his first wife. One reason why New Hope and Empire Strikes Back were so good. Once Lucas got divorced, his screenwriting fell off a cliff. Also, incidentally, Carrie Fisher became an acclaimed script doctor towards the end of her career. She was rewriting a bunch of her own dialog in Return of the Jedi. She fixed up the screenplay for Steven Spielberg's "Hook". Sister Act, Lethal Weapon 3, Scream 3, Coyote Ugly, and Mr. and Mrs.…
