The GBGBs are back with our review of GANGSTER SQUAD (2013). What, you don't remember this movie? C'mon it has Gosling, Emma Stone, Sean Penn, Thanos, The Falcon, Crossbones, Ant-Man's funny friend Luis.... Really?? Well it's about a ragtag team of mavericks who are trying to take down a mob boss in 1940s Los Angeles! It was also critically panned and was a box office flop. Not all of Gosling's movies are winners, but with a hit rate like that guy, we had to go for a stinker this week.

Ryan (our Ryan) also guides us through the arcane art of "remote viewing" a technique used by the CIA to locate UFOs buried under the Denver Airport *citation needed*.

Thanks for stopping by!

The GBGBs are back in Gosling's Garden to watch the 2007 indie comedy, Lars and the Real Girl! This movie stars our friend the Gosman as Lars, a shy yet kindhearted fellow who lives with his brother (Paul Schneider) and sister-in-law (Emily Mortimer). Things take a turn when Lars begins a romantic relationship with an anatomically correct sex doll named Bianca. Lars's community then decides to go along with his delusion in hopes that he will find the connections that he needs.

This movie was an unexpectedly emotional ride for the GBGBs. No car chases, no song and dance numbers, just some good ole fashion acting in this here film. What? Were you expecting some kind of bit in this description? We don't have to do those every time you know. Sometimes we can just describe the movie we liked okay? Give us a break, and you know what? Give yourself a break too, you're too hard on yourself and you deserve some credit.

The GBGBs are continuing their Ryan Gosling marathon with a review of 2017's Blade Runner 2049! This movie is a BLEAK, DYSTOPIAN, THRILL RIDE full of philosophy and sobering discussions about personhood. Ryan Gosling plays a Nexus 8 replicant tasked with "retiring" older replicant models. Everything is fine and dandy until *record scratch* Gosling realizes he just might be the long lost child of a replicant mother, placing him at the center of a paradigm shift between humans and replicants. Who and what decides personhood? Can machines have a soul? Does it matter??

Also the GBGBs embark on another ill-advised exploration of audio-only improv. This time complete with monologues and character work.
