Star Blitz! That's the name I was thinking of! I like to think Buzz Marketing as a subdivision of Star Blitz Incorporated.

Never speak ill of Buzz Marketing!

I think we're losing sight of what's really important here: James Earl Jones has a secret passion for goats! Do I have to spell it out for you people?

Oh and Alfred Molina's dad and Olivia Williams tart-but-caring teacher from "An Education". You know, I probably underrated that one.

Good job as always, Noel
I'm impressed that you managed to post this, since I expected your head to explode with rage upon learning that "Paper Heart" won the Waldo Salt screenwriting award. (I suspect much of the film's screenplay read: Michael Cera wrinkles nose adorably, seems uncomfortable! OMG! He is so cute! I

Donald Glover is really fucking funny in Mystery Team.

Class of '94. Went to the emotionally disturbed prom. It was weird.

For my money, Radner was as talented as anyone in the history of the show. It's a goddamned tragedy that she A) didn't live to be a 100 years old and B) never got any decent film roles. The studios wanted her for Olive Oyl opposite Dustin Hoffman as Popeye but Altman, for better or worse, held out for Williams and

Yeah, but when Chase left SNL people didn't expect him to do O.K or better than Laraine Newman: people thought he was going to be the next Cary Grant or Johnny Carson. He was called the funniest man in America and pegged for super-stardom so I don't think it's too much of a stretch to call him a phenomenal

He got off to a fairly good start with Caddyshack, Foul Play and Funny Farm but even in the early going he had a predilection for stupid choices and lazy films (Under The Rainbow, Oh Heavenly Dog, Modern Problems). He certainly had talent. He just squandered it.

For what it's worth
I was one of the folks who was against this Inventory idea as needlessly dismissive of artists and art forms enormously important to a lot of people, and for very good reasons. I don't in any way want to suggest that poetry or free jazz are bad or illegitimate, just that I've never gotten into

I think we can all not agree that "Southland Tales" was at once terrible and great.

Spike Lee is a great filmmaker period. I admire that he moves so smoothly between film and television, narrative films and documentaries. That said, I still haven't seen Miracle Of Saint Anna. Usually when Lee fails horribly it's at least an audacious, ambitious, noble failure but that one just doesn't seem too

Yeah, Passing Strange, Big Fan and Humpday are easily my three favorite films of the fest so far.

Thanks to "Big Fan" I will always associate the Eagles with Michael Rapaport now, in a good way.

I was invited to a screening by one of the screenwriters/co-stars so I'm probably going to catch it tomorrow (in part because I love having my ginormous ego stroked) morning, that is if I can break my streak of waking up at 11:00 and missing the first screenings of the day. Going to bed at 3 A.M probably isn't going

Wow, a late period Masta Ace reference. There's something you don't see every day.

Bragging about drinking is kind of obnoxious, isn't it? I vow never to do it again, which shouldn't be hard, considering I will never taste a drop of alcohol ever again.

For the record
the double photo post is totally an artistic choice commenting artfully on the fractured nature of the psyche and not a sad side effect of me still trying to figure out the new system. Yeah, that's the ticket.

I actually used to get my hair cut by the students of Mack Daniel's beauty school for five dollars until I realized that waiting an hour and a an hour and a half to get a shitty haircut by an amateur was really not much of a bargain. The final straw may have been when I got a haircut from a woman her three-year-old
