I saw Wedding Crashers last night, and it was hysterical. Not quite Zoolander, but as good or better than Starsky & Hutch.
Seeing FF tonight, and will report back.

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Rotten Tomatoes already has 27 reviews up, and FF has garnered an overall average of 21%. It looks dismal.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Check out the photo of the fans dressed like two of the FF - the guy has these prosthetic arm thingies to make it look like he's stretching his arms. Sorta.

The King Kong trailer looks like a lot of fun.

Note to Avi Arad: If you want Harry Knowles to help spread good word-of-mouth about your film, publicly calling him "Fat Harry" is probably not the best way to win him over.
