I can't figure out whether Young Money is the best or worst thing to ever happen to metaphors.

They killed it live. Very funny stuff. I was super impressed.

The one time I've been to Vegas with Keith Phipps Dangerfield was playing. It was eighty five dollars. I was all, "I love Rodney, but I don't know if I eighty five dollars love Rodney.

I see "Mr. Show" as a bit of an extension of "The Ben Stiller Show."

I'm not blaming the studio for ruining the movie. I agree with Odenkirk: it doesn't make sense to fight for a film that would have been an interesting failure with lots of great ideas haphazardly realized under the best of circumstances.

I appreciate the sentiment, Heche but I feel like so much of what makes this movie interesting and heartbreaking is how much Mr. Show meant to people in the 1990s. So the nostalgia trip seemed not only appropriate but necessary.

Yeah, I think BRAIN CANDY or WET HOT AMERICAN SUMMER would have been the best-case scenario for how this might have turned out. Love both, wanted to love this as well.

Yeah, the kid is terrible and the concept of "let's convert the Jews!" is super-offensive.

I had a blast. I just have an innate aversion to smiling in photographs. Showing my teeth and whatnot.

Sports Dome is genius, as is Onion News Network. Between Sports Dome and Sklarbro Country, I'm really tempted to get back into sports.

I think I'm probably a lot harder on books like these than other people because I've read so many of them. Consequently, I've gotten more jaded about the debauchery and decadence contained therein than if this was the first book I'd ever read about the rock world of the 1970s.

Great/dead-on Cherry 2000 reference, haysoos. Good to see I'm not the only person who saw/remember that movie.

It is brilliant. I am quite Taken with it, not unlike that Liam Neeson action movie, The A-Team.

I'll be covering "How Did This Get Made" for us. I'm a big fan (shockingly!). Shit, I'm actually going to see "Drive Angry 3-D" to prepare for the next episode (also because that movie looks awesome)

I've ordered Leonard Part 6. I saw Prince of Persia and felt it was pretty boring, standard boiler plate nonsense. Probably not worth a Case File.

I'd say Fu Manchu is less politically incorrect than egregiously offensive. Then again, they are making a Speedy Gonzales movie. It's George Lopez-approved (it will also star George Lopez).

The 37 line thing sounds right. For a guy who never does anything but gab, smile and do shenanigans in his movies, Gooding Jr. spends an awful lot of time glowering, saying nothing and suffering for humanity's sins here.

Not a bad idea at all. I like to turn readers onto weird, obscure, fascinating obscurities but I know a lot of commenters like to read and comment about films they've seen, or are at least familiar with.

Definitely considering it. It'd be a popular favorite, though I don't know if a second viewing would change my opinion on it. Fuck it, I'll buy it on Amazon so I'll have it around in case I do decide to give it a go.

This may end up being Helen Mirren month if the next Case File is THE FIENDISH PLOT OF FU MANCHU as planned.
