Cautiously optimistic about this.

I hear you. Because there's such a rich history of this character (and some aren't fans of Jack Nicholson's portrayal but either way) and given where Heath Ledger took it, this one certainly could fall flat. I don't have any qualms about Joaquim Phoenix's acting or ability to pull it off and put his own stamp on the character, and the trailer looks like he does just that, but it all really depends on the script.

The Heath Ledger Christopher Nolan combination's a tough one to top

Have an interesting proposal to mull over.

Have an offer on the table to work in a Management capacity at a golf course here. Money is good, free golf for myself and a guest all season is great and there are multiple perks at other courses out West and a few in Hawaii. The gig is only 4 days a week but longer hours and there will be nights I don`t get home until 1 am.

Working in a non-management position now, making ok money, peers and management are terrific and I have zero responsibilities other than looking after my own paperwork, no real late nights


I shall decide by 1 pm my time today, good "problems" to have

That means that someone sees what you can bring. Management is tough (I've been doing it for longer than I care to mention, but it is what it is). It's the old risk-reward deal. Good luck!

thx, yeah I worked in restaurant Management for the last decade or so and it`s many hours. This one would be a touch different in that I have a manager I report to who would do the majority of the paperwork. Essentially I would oversee, train and develop the staff the course has to work large events, essentially banquet`s so paperwork is minimal.

Hours aren`t bad, start at 5 pm and I would work every 2nd weekend so there`s that too
