I don't think I can describe how funny ten year old me found the Monoploy Guy line.

They just hired the wrong directors, flat out. I give them credit for doing what they can to rectify that mistake, but what a mistake it was. I can't even begin to imagine what they were thinking.

In defense of Ehrenreich, Lord and Miller were apparently directing to go in an Ace Ventura-esque direction. I can see why the higher ups might thing acting lessons were in order.

There's not any one film you have to see to appreciate it, but you'll appreciate it more the longer you've been living with Jackman as Wolverine. In theory, a working knowledge of who Wolverine and Professor X are is enough to be able to watch, but I'd at least watch X-Men, X2, and The Wolverine.

How Was Your Pop Culture Weekend?

Holy crap, Preacher.

Nope! Sure don't!

That wouldn't even rank in the top 20 weirdest things to happen on LU.

We don't know that! Johnny Mundo could be Elijah Mundo's long lost evil brother.

I am A-OK with lying but I fear my co-inhabitant may not be. I'll try to convince her to live on the wild side for the sake of quality TV.

Career downturns aside, if there's one thing Kasdan has proven he has a good grip on, it's Star Wars.
