At least the Pink Panther remake was also moved to 2006. Whoever thought that that was a good idea was smoking something.

Hey. New board.

Hint: It was crack.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
I just got back from seeing "The Man With The Screaming Brain" which was written and directed by Bruce Campbell. There was the added bonus of Bruce being there himself and signing copies of his new book "Make Love the Bruce Campbell Way". Both Bruce and the movie were very entertaining. He did a harange about the kind of crap that is considered A list material for movies these days. Remakes of old TV shows or old movies or crap like Deuce Bigelow 2. He also has it in for Ashton Kutcher.
I love Bruce Campbell!

I suppose as one of the foremost experts based on his career, he knows crappy movies when he sees them.

That he does, Matt. And is damn proud of it.

I just saw my first ad for Transporter 2 on TV. Now I'm amped.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Just got back from Broken Flowers.
I'm a huge Jarmusch fan so I knew the pace and feel going in. I really liked it a lot, although I don't think it will be one of my favorites of his. Even a not-fave Jarmusch film is going to rate pretty darn high in my affections. An interesting meditation on personal history and human connection. Jeffrey Wright is adorable and there are lots of terrific moments. One nice thing--a Jarmusch audience is there to PAY ATTENTION--not one person talked or used a cellphone or anything rude and distracting during the film. Lovely.

Oh, I can't wait to see Broken Flowers. I've been a Jarmusch fan since a friend sat me down and made me watch Down By Law.

I love that movie. I think it's my favorite of his (that I've seen). It was so unexpectedly sweet at the end. Watching it made me forgive Roberto Benigni for much of his over-the-top schtick during the Life is Beautiful era.

Johnnny Stecchino and Life is Beautiful have wiped out any warm and fuzzy feelings I might have had for Benigni after Down by Law.
Robin, I pretty much had the same feeling about Broken Flowers as you. Not my favourite Jarmusch by any stretch, but much better than most films anyday.
