Sometimes Gary wants to watch a movie so much that he becomes unreasonably attached to it and feels personally insulted if you do not embrace it as well.
The most recent example is a heist/chase/relationship movie called Crime 101. It is so long we had to watch it in stages. There’s an hour left and we are watching that hour now. I am writing this blog post right now so I don’t have to focus all my attention on this movie.
I am not the demographic for this movie, even though it stars Chris Hemsworth as a very calm, unemotional man, and given that Gary has been so emotional as of late, that should drive me wild, right? Nope. Even though Chris has been given the direction to be stoic even as he ignores shots fired while attractive women try to date him, and yet he leaves me cold.
Here is a gallery of the range of emotions he shows in this movie, courtesy of IMDB.

Gary, on the other hand, loved it. He spent the last hour of this movie exclaiming “I LOVE THIS MOVIE” at all the tensest moments.
