    Default Good Will Hunting

    I saw this forever ago, but now that I'm older and more mature, I watched it again last night. Starring Matt Damon, Robin Williams, and Ben Affleck. Is there a better movie that just tells it how it is? So many good quotes throughout this movie as well.

    One of the things I didn't realize and was most impressed with, was that it was written by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck.

    I'd love to post a link to the speech Robin Williams gives to Matt Damon on the park bench, but there is quite a bit of language.

    One of my absolute favorite movies, MJ! I watch it at least once a month. I'm surprised you didn't realize that Damon and Affleck wrote it. The story of that movie's background is legendary (at this point). Look up the whole history. Pretty impressive what two "dumb" kids could achieve. And, although one of the first movies I saw with Damon and Affleck, it's the one movie that firmly cemented my favoritism of Damon over Affleck.

    Haha, I love it!

    Patch Adams and Hook have always been my favorite Robin Williams movies but this one might jump in front of them.

    This one should LEAP in front of them. Good Will Hunting is vastly superior to both of those movies. It's one of my favorites and hard not to like.

    The tangent that Matt Damon goes on when talking about the NSA was fantastic.

    Having never seen this movie (which I probably should), I can only ever think about the fake sequel from Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back entitled Good Will Hunting 2: Hunting Season.

    That, or "Allegedly, your situation, for you would be concurrently improved if I had 200 dollars in my back pocket right now."

    You definitely need too. I want to put the stamp on it that I feel like its one movie every male should watch, especially in their younger years.
