Trailer: The Wolf of Wall Street

Directed by Martin Scorsese
Starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Jonah Hill, and Matthew McConaughey
Featuring Kanye West’s “Black Skinhead”

My initial reaction is that this film feels like early 90s Scorsese — in your face and completely self-aware of what it intends to be. It also has these flecks of Oliver Stone-level attitude, but that could just be the subject matter and his history with it.

These are the kinds of roles DiCaprio should be devoting himself to, these over-the-top, in-your-face characters. I think they play to his strengths because, let’s face it, as an actor, DiCaprio doesn’t have a subtle bone in his body.

The Wolf of Wall Street isn’t coming out until November 15, so we have plenty of time to wait, which will undoubtedly be filled with extended trailers and crazy amounts of buzz.

Is this the year DiCaprio gets his Best Actor Oscar?

Funny story there. My mom inadvertently found my Tumblr last week. Didn’t even know what she was looking at it, either.

She called it a “tumblrs.”

So that was fun.

I recognize I work in a casual environment…

But the hemp Rainbows, frayed cargo shorts, stained hoodie, and backwards trucker hat are maybe a bit too casual, new Sales guy.

Go back to Bonnaroo, dude.

I feel like this is a sign of the Apocalypse. When it happens, and we’re all scream-asking “Why?!” someone from on high is just going boom, “BECAUSE PLANTS VS. ZOMBIES ADVENTURES, THAT’S WHY!”

So I found a stream of Yeezus for this lazy Friday afternoon. 

Who knows how long this will stay up. The source URL is already 503ing…

This. Looks. So. Good. I love Neill Blomkamp’s dirty and realistic vision of the future. 

Matt Damon is the perfect modern movie star. Second only to Tom Hanks. And this film will be incredible. Currently, it’s nestled alongside Pacific Rim as the summer movie I’m most looking forward to.

I’m clearly having some delayed feelings over Jennifer Jones getting eliminated on last night’s SYTYCD “Vegas Callbacks” episode.

Pretty sure she was one of the top 5 most talented female dancers there…

Harsh lyrics, but an amazing cut. Can’t wait for this album to come out!

I am very excited for this record to drop (do people still say “drop?”) tomorrow.

But, y’all, these lyrics are harsh. I feel like this album is gonna break my heart.
