We just got the one sheet for Prince Caspian. Oh goodness. I've gone from oh yeah, they're making another Narnia movie to WANT. NOW!
I'm fairly certain I said no interruptions.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
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.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

"Starring Dane Cook and Jessica Alba" was the first clue.

I have to say I don't get the whole Dane Cook thing. People seem to get so worked up over how bad he is, but - who the hell is he? Why do people care? I feel like I've missed some huge cultural moment or something, because he's never even pinged my radar in any way that would make him worth even getting aggravated about.

He had the best-selling comedy album since Steve Martin even though he (a) steals jokes but (b) still manages to be a terrible comedian. Reportedly his success was through canny use of MySpace.

Ah. Maybe that explains it.
Wait, is he the one Joe Rogan is in some joke stealing feud with? No, wait, that's Carlos Mencia. I'm still so confused...

Joe Rogan complains about Cook too, but Mencia is the notorious feud, yes.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
His delivery style (at least when his first few Comedy Central specials came out) is super-frenetic, which can give the illusion of hilarity. I find him frat-boyish and annoying.

Cook does make for a hilarious impersonation by Ike Barinholtz on MADtv.
For me the irritation is a combination of singsong vocal delivery, ADHD rambling material, the accounts of stolen jokes, and the smugness that rolls off him in waves in recent years. Oh, and the movie Waiting. Though I did like him when I first saw his act back in the 90s.
