We are at T-minus 5 minutes and counting. Everyone begin their movie as close to 9:05 p.m. ET as possible.

(As far as synching, we should all be within a few seconds of each other.)

Should we start from the beginning of the actual movie or from the pre-credits.

Yep, that's right. The 20th Century Fox is just before that. Maybe wait a few seconds after 6:05:00

That comes right after the 20th Century Fox fanfare, so maybe ten seconds difference.

James Cameron was married to Kathryn Bigelow at the time the movie was made if you're wondering why he got an EP credit.

I assume the casting note for John C. McGinley when he read for "Scrubs" was just to repeat this character.

Given Keanu's current stature and his apparent willingness to revisit his older hits (B&T and the Matrix) a sequel is made right around now if Swayze is still alive, right?

This really is the perfect Keanu Reeves vehicle, by the way. It checks everything he's good at as an actor.

Despite the fact that he's obviously vindicated eventually, I feel like the rest of the FBI LA bank robbery division is too quick to dismiss Pappas' theory about the Presidents.

I appreciate that the movie doesn't take a lot of time for Pappas and Utah to bond. This is seriously a really good decision.
