And in Laural Canyon they also cast an American as a Brit.
Jeez, don't get all Movie of the Week. I was just too cheap to buy you a real present.

Salon has an interesting piece on the Stepford Wife-ing of Katie Holmes. Public lobotomy: entertainment or abomination? Liz Smith does not approve!

Always Anti-fascist!
Liz Smith? Pot. Kettle. Or something. It's hard for me to believe that there is anything in there but "Columnist Liz Smith", come to think of it. Although if KH were my friend, I'd be freaked.

You know, the promo for the new movie about the Brothers Grimm is very odd. It's as if the Brothers Grimm were Watchers or something.
Maybe it's more a movie about a couple of people who happen to be called Grimm and are storycollecting brothers much like the Brothers Grimm in our universe, except that these guys are a team of demon hunters.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Sumi, are you watching 4400, too? I was just going to come in and post about the trailer.
Looked worth seeing, even apart from the pedigree.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I just saw it before The Aristocrats, and it was kind of weird.
As for The Aristocrats -- it made me feel more fondly to a great number of comedians. I've long figured Bob Saget's kids were worth bearing, and that Gilbert Godfried isn't as annoying as he looks, but this movie reminded me of other fondnesses.
It's a lot of laughing -- that in the same weekend as Crashers. But good laughing, even though I felt very self conscious leaving the theatre, like it'd be obvious from my face what sort of variations of the joke I was running through.

looks too Van Helsing-like for me and that movie was one of few that had me leaving the theatre wanting my money and my time back.
plus? i have no love for matt damon.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Bob Saget's kids were worth bearing
Rio's Bob Saget, or the real one?
I just saw Lagaan, which was loads of fun even if I still don't understand cricket. (Not entirely my fault -- they faded out during the scene where the British chick was explaining the rules!) DH and I are seeing the director's new film on Thursday.

For me, the real one. I'm assuming though, that should she be the bearing sort, Rio!Saget is worthy too.
I wonder -- is a Walken impression a cheap laugh? If it's halfway decent, I'm not able to avoid breaking up entirely.
