I thought that maybe I just wasn't up on Tobey Maguire movies. But I just checked out his imdb and he really hasn't been in a lot since Spider Man 3 (which was 2007, apparently!) Where has the time gone?

I just watched Iron Man 2 for the second time on netflix last night. I enjoyed it more the second time around. However, I was thrown off by the fact that the government was ready to take the Iron Man suit by force. Um, don't you have to pay for that shit, guys?

I deleted my MySpace page back, circa, 2007. In fact, when I heard that NewsCorp had bought it for lots and lots of money (I don't recall the amount), I thought to myself, "That is really dumb."

Did they CGI a weird looking boob on the girl in that picture?
What the hell is going on there? Is GL's costume glowing through her dress?

I am legitimately curious what the venue was.

Successful secondsies?

Statute of Limitations
So this guys talks because the statute of limitations has run on the robbery, but what about the murder (or attempted murder, the article doesn't make it clear)?

American Gods
I picked up the book recently based on all the praise in AV Club comments threads. I haven't read it yet; I'm about the finish another book. But I trust all of your collective tastes so implicitly I thank you in advance for recommending such a good read.

I'm not sure…
I really buy the premise that the audience didn't know a lot about Super 8 before seeing it. Yes, the trailer didn't show the monster, but most of the other big elements were known.

Alright,
so we no longer like the RHCP. Good to know.

"The 'L' is for 'fuck you.'" Awesome.

I wish
some old guy had offered me pot-laced food when *I* was doing chemo.

Not a great experience with Amazon
I downloaded the latest Decemberists album from Amazon because you could get it for $4, as opposed to $7 on itunes. But three of the tracks would only play about half the song then it would skip to the end. Amazon customer service was nice and they gave me credits to redownload.

Nancy Grace is a terrible, terrible person
I've met many prosecutors while working at a public defender's office. While I disagreed with their views on cases, I found most of them to be pleasant, reasonable people. Nancy Grace gives prosecutors a bad name.

This made me lol in the law school library.

Wait,
P. Diddy Swag Whatever had a comeback? Does he even make music any more? Is the new fall line of Sean John a comeback?

Bridesmaids
I took my fiancee to see Bridesmaids in the hopes that it would be a not-too-painful payback for making her see Sucker Punch.

Ess Eff
My fiancee and I are relatively recent SF transplants (been here for almost 2 years). She is a huge Hitchcock fan and she just showed be Vertigo for the first time a few months ago. I did wonder where that apartment was. Now that I know I think I'll surprise her by taking her there this weekend. Thanks, AV

I think the guy reflected in Tom Cruise's glasses in keffa's second link may actually be douchier than Tom Cruise. It's like the picture was taken at a douche convention.
