- I was trying to remember the name of that movie, thx! -- nm - znufrii, dad. Aug 16, 10:33 7
  - I love that movie. -- nm - kelly Aug 16, 11:27
  - It's unnecessarily vulgar, moderately good otherwise. -- nm - Qale Aug 16, 10:49 1
    - I think of it as sexist but still enjoyable - one scene kind of stuck with me, an odd little one. (spoilers) - b. Aug 16, 11:03
  - also known as 'That movie where Jon Favreau gets both ScarJo and Sofia Vergara and doesn't expect the World to laugh'. (but I did enjoy the film) -- nm - Diva Aug 16, 10:36 3
    - Hey, if I was gonna write a film... -- nm - spamlet Aug 16, 10:41 2
      - Duh, me too but it's still funny. We should all list the 2 costarring love interests we'd cast in our writer/directorial debuts. - Diva Aug 16, 10:46 1

not specifically, but i know anecdotally here in LA, most restaurants view them as loss-leaders for a brick and mortar location - shaolin fantastic Aug 16, 10:24 2
- Yeah, I don't think the concept I'm toying with would be very successful as a brick and mortar business, but maybe... -- nm - znufrii, dad. Aug 16, 10:56
- around here they are test run for several b&m restaurants, proof of concept etc. Lumpia World is the latest -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 16, 10:49
$312.50 -- nm - oblique Aug 16, 10:21
