What you may need to know:
1. Whitey Bulger (Johnny Depp), South Boston’s most infamous criminal turns FBI informant. Biopic directed by Scott Cooper.
2. Worst. Masterchef. Ever.
3. Contact lenses? Very Fields of the Nephilim circa 1990. Someone’s been to Asha.
4. “Funny like I’m a clown? I amuse you?” If Joe Pesci wasn’t retired, he could have pulled this off in his sleep.
5. Looks like a step up from Mortdecai (2015). Mind you, what isn’t?
6. Broadsheet Prognosis: Whatever. I’m still processing that Star Wars Trailer.
Release Date: September 25.

I think it actually looks good, but I thought it was another movie about the Iceman at first.
According to wiki “There have also been plans for a Whitey Bulger film to be directed by Ben Affleck and star Matt Damon, although these plans have been complicated by the production of Black Mass”
Um, yes please
You a bit of scum glorification?
Hell yeah, loved gangster mafia type movies since I was a kid
How do you know if it is glorification? The departed didn’t do too much glorification. I thought it made the gangsters seem petty and grubby.
Yup. Looks solid. Nice Triumph in the trailer too.
Wasn’t the fictional movie about a fictional Whitey Bulger in the Tv show Ray Donovan called Black Mass?
Woah there, Drogg! That’s a bit meta for a Friday afternoon. Kudos, though.
I have an eidetic memory when it comes to tv and movies, everything else i forget really quickly.
What’s the last decent Depp performance in a decent movie?
The man had so much potential.
Blow.
