As a lifelong Red Sox fan - although it wouldn’t be my first choice - the thought of donning a Derek Jeter jersey for charity wouldn’t be the end of the world; he was a damn good all-around player, and I can respect that.

It took me a minute to recall that the current Seth Myers’ Late Show is actually the same program as the Letterman version.

Not that it’s the best movie in their vaults, but if they insist on remaking their cartoons into live-action, The Rescuers might be a good one to tackle. Although they would have to improve the pacing (the original movie dragged quite a bit), the basic story structure and potential visuals might be interesting in…

Maximum Derek. Glad to see he’s moved on from wind chimes.

Actually, 650 grams (1.4 lbs). That’s a helluva lot of blow.

I really want to like Tim Allen, because he can be genuinely funny and he’s had leading roles in some of my favorite films from the last 30 years. But... nope.

He’s very good.

I agree that character is supposed to be charming and overconfident, but I think (for me) Clooney crossed the line into smug and annoying. Just one opinion. But (as Doctor Boo mentioned above), I have thought that maybe I should give it a second watch one of these days so maybe I’ll do that.

Am I the only one who didn’t like The Fantastic Mr. Fox? (and thanks in advance to the person who just responds ‘yes’). It was probably my favorite book as a child so perhaps I put it on a pedestal, but I still really wanted to like it... and just didn’t (I’m not even sure I finished watching the whole movie). I can’t…

Yeah, but now Harrison’s estate owns the rights to both songs (at least in the U.S. and U.K.)

Agreed, Abbalanche is an awesome name.

Made me think of this exchange from That 70's Show:

So now it’s Dick Clark’s New Years Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest and Roselyn Sanchez. Since few people under the age of 40 even know who Dick Clark was, and few people under 30 even who know who Ryan Seacrest is, maybe it’s time to shorten it to just New Year’s Rockin’ Eve?

She also exhibited an Oscar-worthy performance of being totally baked in that one scene in The Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind.

Umm, hello Tom? Where’s Mazes and Monsters?

I was somewhat nonplussed right up until the last paragraph. Yay, another Christmas Carol adaptation, we sure need more of those. Maybe next they’ll come up with a Christmas Carol/Paranormal Activity crossover, they haven’t tried that yet.

The spirit of Christmas is back... with a vengeance!

Agreed, he did his best. Unfortunately you can’t polish a turd.

This TV movie is definitely one of those slow-motion car crash things, where it’s horrible but you just can’t look away. And I SO wanted it to be good based on the original Stephen King short story, but it really really wasn’t. The script, the overacting, and the 1990-era special effects... it was a trifecta of…

I see he still managed to fit a gun in there, though.

Yeah I can see the Wonder Years influence but it’s clearly channeling A Christmas Story.
