The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
In this quirky dark comedy inspired by a real life story you will hardly believe is actually true, astonishing revelations about a top-secret wing of the U.S. military come to light when a reporter encounters an enigmatic Special Forces operator on a mind-boggling mission. Reporter Bob Wilton (Ewan McGregor) is in search of his next big story when he encounters Lyn Cassady (Academy Award®winner George Clooney), a shadowy figure who claims to be part of an experimental U.S. military unit. According to Cassady, the New Earth Army is changing the way wars are fought. A legion of “Warrior Monks” with unparalleled psychic powers can read the enemy’s thoughts, pass through solid walls, and even kill a goat simply by staring at it. Now, the program’s founder, Bill Django (Oscar® nominee Jeff Bridges), has gone missing and Cassady’s mission is to find him. Intrigued by his new acquaintance’s far-fetched stories, Bob impulsively decides to accompany him on the search. When the pair tracks Django to a clandestine training camp run by renegade psychic Larry Hooper (two-time Oscar® winner Kevin Spacey), the reporter is trapped in the middle of a grudge match between the forces of Django’s New Earth Army and Hooper’s personal militia of super soldiers. In order to survive this wild adventure, Bob will have to outwit an enemy he never thought possible. The Men Who Stare at Goats was inspired by Jon Ronson’s non-fiction bestseller of the same name, an eye-opening and often hilarious exploration of the government’s attempts to harness paranormal abilities to combat its enemies.
I giggled. I don't know if Ewan McGregor being in a good film about fake jedi would be ironic or not.

That's so many!
In some countries you would be worshipped as a master of your discipline, a butts-guru whom other butts-collectors would follow across the globe, prostrating themselves upon your doorstep in order to learn your secrets.
I hear it's Batmans all the way up, though

"It's a fool who looks for logic in the chambers of the human heart" is one that I use quite frequently, usually in a way that actually has a bearing on the conversation at hand

Specifically mine
But in the immediate sense I'm more curious about how many butts Gatsby possesses.

So many

More than eleven?
Also sometimes I get leery of films with so many big names, but I just... I just can't fathom how this could possibly be bad.

Well, aint this place a geographical oddity - two weeks from everywhere!
Watchin dis so hard.
I've been killing goats with my mind for years
also:
I'll watch anything with George Clooney in it, especially dark comedies
I loved Burn After Reading, this looks good
my only qualm about the movie is that it won't be completely nonfiction like the book is
you two is just dumber'n'a bag a hammers
Oh Mr Monroe, I can tell you too are a Dapper Dan man
They're making it into a movie?
Wowsers.
but the main reason I'm seeing this movie is George Clooney, Jeff Bridges, and Kevin Spacey as crazy psychic warriors for the CIA
