Justin Long in Dodgeball is HI-LARIOUS. I have only to think of him and a wrench and I will laugh like a loon.
Oh, god, me too. It's my secret shame. Well, it would be secret if FX ever stopped playing the movie.
Sometimes when I'm sitting in class... You know, I'm not thinking about class, 'cause that would never happen. I think about kissing you. And it's like everything stops. It's like, it's like freeze frame. Willow kissage.

Man, that movie shouldn't be as funny as it is.

Richard Roundtree has joined the cast of Speed Racer.
You guys know that Scott Porter ("Street" from FNL) is playing the young Racer X, right?

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm so glad it is, though. These days, even the pinging sound of a rubber ball can elicit peals of laughter from me.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Live Free or Die Hard was awesome! It was very much a Die Hard movie with lots of great explosions, as Gris mentioned, but more than that, it's an action movie that gets you viscerally involved, where you're leaning back in your seat and ducking to avoid debris and all that shit. It's a lot of fun. And Justin Long is good, too. I would have to rewatch the other movies if I wanted to bother with comparing it to the others, but I loved it.
My only complaint, really, is that, despite the fact that I like Timothy Olyphant in Go, he doesn't really pull off the villain role in this one. He's no Alan Rickman or Jeremy Irons or whoever the hell was the villain in the second one...though I guess he must be better than him, if I can't even remember him. There's not much to his performance beyond a one-note intensity.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Have y'all watched the extras on Dodgeball? Justin Long's monologue to the two beefy guys flanking him as they're waiting for the cheer tryouts in hi-frickin'-larious. Bless.
