That director's a hard nut to crack. 1.5 stars, while Bill Murray bends an ear and 'is understanding', and beef on a stick?

My dude, that's crazy bro.

Apparently he just really likes flex-straws

Considering trading Ziggy and Red Stripe in a 2-for-1 deal.

TPs for all decent offers.

Question for anyone who did a yelp! today:

If you could redo one pick, which would you do? And what would you replace it with?

Personally, I kinda regret not going w/ karaoke:

I should've drafted beirut. Although, I would of course then have to come back like Jordan wearin the 'fo-five.

I've never though of beirut as a bar game myself.

I've played plenty, but never at a bar before. 

[Lucky17]

I don't know if it would work in a bar. You need a decent amount of elbow room, plus sympathetic/attentive by-standers to help chase down the ball--before it gets crushed underfoot--when it inevitably gets away from the players.

ROOM 112 YELP PART 2!

Room 112: Where the Playaz Dwell

I came into Room 112 in need of a drink.

I'm a director. For the longest time, I was treated like a god around these parts. But then, things around here changed. And all of a sudden, the actors weren't working for us, WE were working for them.

"You have to shoot me like this", "I have to say this", etc. The fact is we were taking cues on how to make a movie from people that don't know the first thing about great cinema.

So eventually I had enough. If I wanted to get back to making great pieces of film that I could be proud of something had to change.

So I decided to built a holographic actress that I would superimpose into my movies without letting anyone know it.

And at first it goes great - I'm making movies I love again. Commercially successfully, critically adored! Everything you could want and more! I was BACK, guys!

But then 'the business' steps in and everyone wants a piece of my holographic actress! And it's just too much for me, guys! I JUST WANT TO MAKE GREAT MOVIES.

So I made the tough decision to stop making movies with my holographic actress, forcing me to retire from Hollywood.

So I came to Room 112 looking to just get away, and what a great time I had!

I came in and had (quite) a few Rum & Cokes and told the whole fiasco to Bill Murray, who really could relate to my case. He couldn't have been nicer!

Then after our conversation My Morning Jacket came on and played an incredible set, all their songs, and then a ton of great covers like "Get Down On It" by KC and the Sunshine Band, "Express Yourself" by Charles Wright, and then "Move On Up" by Curtis Mayfield! Then they shared the stage with the Roots and did "Wordless Chorus," "Dear God 2.0" and a whole lotta more stuff!

The beer selection was great! The beef on a stick was surprisingly good, and I had SO much fun playing skeeball horse races (Prince was announcing the races).

But I had to take points off cuz they didn't offer flex-straws:

1.5 stars


Entertainers: The Roots, MMJ, Prince
Specialty Drink: Jameson & Ginger Ale, Rum & Coke, Whipped Cream Vodka & Orange Soda
Beers: Smithwicks, Magic Hat #9, GL Christmas Ale,
 Wilco Tango Foxtrot Beer, Coors Light, Sunset Wheat
Bartender: Bill Murray Bouncer: Blade
Specialty Food: Beef on a Stick Activities: Skeeball Horse Racing

Simone?  Or whatever that awful Pacino movie was called. 

I like the "crappy movie plot" theme I'm pickin up here.

I've played plenty, but never at a bar before.  

In college there was a bar I used to frequent on Wednesday nights that had beirut tournaments.

Winning 2-person (or 1-person, but that's very ill-advised to attempt) team got 75% or so of the $5 per team entry fee. Pitchers were $2.25 til midnight of beast.

I won once or twice, no big whoop.

Agree. I would've drafted Milwaukee's Best can called it a day.

I don't know if it would work in a bar. You need a decent amount of elbow room, plus sympathetic/attentive by-standers to help chase down the ball--before it gets crushed underfoot--when it inevitably gets away from the players.

Ah no, we played with quarters. Games are faster, easier to play while hammered, and I'm really, really good.

I've seen enough promotions that it must work OK

We played Atomic Beer Pong once, where one of the 10 cups is filled with 151, and you're not allowed to smell the cup before drinking it. 

We didn't play it a second time.

Those games are hilarious - we used to rum or coke pong, the facial expressions are priceless.

THat's a movie so terrible I've never even heard of it.
