I didn't realize we had a list already for potential titles.

Ok, next threads.

I hope we have a next thread. This isn't Ewan's most popular movie around here.

Well, because it wasn't very good. The timing/flow was off.
And Clooney and Ewan should have switched roles.

I want Ewan/Clooney to work together again on a better project. Even Ewan/Kevin Spacey & Ewan/The Dude (spacing out on his real name right now) Cause they weren't a bad cast.

Jeff that's it!

They should go for a drama now, not a comedy.

I wouldn't mind a comedy. Just one that was not based on a true story, or a book.

^ But I think a movie could still be funny if based on a true story (ILTPM) or a book. They just needed a better book.

Well, the script and direction and editing need to be better next time.

it's easier to say the whole damn movie.

The only good thing was the chemistry, I think. And overall acting.

Next time Ewan & George work together, I want Ewan to be the wise one who has to teach George what to do.
