Sidney Poitier
I dunno if anyone has mentioned this yet (Criminy, even I don't have time to go through all the comments on my posts) but an astute reader named Colin deLeon-Horton emailed to point out that Wayans grating accent is actually a devastatingly accurate impersonation/caricature of Sidney Poitier's voice.

I reviewed it for next week's DVD section. I recalled liking it the first time around but it was fucking interminable during the second go-round.

While "Bamboozled" is a profoundly flawed film it's also a film that deals with an incredibly important and over-looked subject in a fearless, audacious fashion. It succeeds whole-heartedly in angrying up the blood and provoking debate even if it's less successful as a narrative. Furthermore, it has a really unique,

"When the Levees Broke" is absolutely devastating. He's a great documentarian, that Spike and that might just be the most ambitious thing he's ever done.

he was so the best Hannibal Lector. Creepy and understated as opposed to hammy and over the top.

Great job, Noel
Cox has long been one of my favorite actors, so it was neat to see that he's an interesting and candid individual.

It's pretty terrible. Nauseatingly sentimental and terminally cutesy. I love Kaufman but that was about the worst vehicle ever.

Scott and I have both seen it and neither of us could remember much about it, though that probably says more about our movie-clogged memories than the film itself.

Yeah, it's really creepy. Apparently its failure doomed a prospective Tony Clifton biopic Kaufman and Zmuda were writing around the time. Damn you, Heartbeeps!

Has anyone else
seen Clifton during his Chicago stint? What did you make of the show? Also, were you sober? How did that affect your enjoyment of the night's debauchery?

Yes, but only after touching the magical head of waterstain Jesus. There, now I'm sure you'll all want to flock to this heartwarming quirkathon.

I actually did a two part, hour and a half long Conan O'Brien interview a while back. You can find it in the archives. I'd love to talk to him again when he takes over the Tonight Show.

That's kinda awesome. I hadn't seen that before. I like Videocracy but I don't follow it religiously, I'm afraid.

What is the deal with airline food? I'm getting sick just looking at it, the guy next to me, he's asking for seconds? Who are the ad wizards who came up with this? Anywho, I promise that my next blog post will be less Andy Rooneyesque.

The wrong son died!

Thanks, Rodolfo. This one was a little light on jokes but it's good to know that people enjoy MYOF entries that are a little more serious and analytical instead of jokey and smartass.

Hey, Scotty's dramatic chops are what really hold his porn films together.

yeah, if you pick it up you'll learn more about me than you probably want or need to know. It's brutally, perhaps unwisely candid that way.

In the Spring or Summer of next year. Catch the fever! Thank you in advance.

I'm trying to make them shorter, but this one was tough to whittle down.
