What’s the last good book you read?

And lie about their age and pretend to be two years younger than they really were. Like a fucking woman.

Buster was the best.

2 years really isn’t much of a difference when you look 55 haha. Nice veneers, stupid.

This book is gross. I read a few dozen pages out of curiosity and then immediately deleted the file.

If you're interested in old comedy that still holds up I'd recommend Scoop.

It's from 1938, but still has some surprising surreal humour in there.

And of course PG Woodehouse.

I wanted to make a joke about him dying so looked him up and saw that factoid. When he died it turned out he'd spent his whole life pretending he was two years younger than he actually was. Like you say, pointless considering he looked like an old man back when he was in Raging Bull. Just pointless in general really. Real man's man!

I forget the exact line but Groucho said something like "I wish you were at the opposite end of a shooting gallery" and it always made me laugh.

Wonder what Johnny Russo and Brad Trackman have been getting into

Probably little boys' buttholes

Great book, written by a hostage negotiator.

Sing Backwards and Weep by Mark Lanegan. The audio book read by him is the ultimate way to experience it. It's easily one of the best rock memoirs I have ever read. Mark was great friends with Kurt Cobain and Layne Staley so there's a bunch of stories about those guys. Lanegan was in Screaming Trees who were successful enough to be on MTV and Letterman etc. But spent his height of fame living in a shit hole Seattle apartment or outright homeless cooking crack on a Coleman propane stove and ripping and running. I couldn't put da fawkin thing down.

I started watching Abbot and Costello Meet Frankenstein on Halloween and that was making laugh.

As a kid I was obsessed with the Universal Monsters, so I remember checking that one out. Absolutely loved it and it's become a regular watch, in addition to making me a fan of AnC.

 

[FrogmanKurlan]

Last of the Mohicans was pretty good.

 

[HeyItsVos]

Horse Feathers is my favorite but I love Duck Soup.

I’m partial to Monkey Business, but those are both great.

You've reminded me of the actual greatest book aout old Hollywood.

That's a great one, so is this:

It's more film theory than anything, but it's a great read.

WWAWD Day for Night? I love that movie.

Can't hold a candle to "The Rules of The Game" when it comes to the French cinema.

And nothing compares to "Breathless".

Pierrot le Fou is better but I'm not sure what my favorite Godard is actually.

Vallista by Stephen brust. I read a ton but it's all fantasy schlock.

Whenever I tries to read "high brow" shit I get bored to tears. Probably my sobel level iq.

 

[O-BLOCK NIGGA!]

Blood Meridian.
