I thought he did a good job inthe film as did Portman. Her better performace of all her films I've seen was in Garden State. I just didn't like the film a whole lot. It was entertaining, but it was just the same old story and nothing real new. It was a "seen it all before" film for me.

Little Miss Sunshine comes out on DVD tomorrow. Maybe I'll get to see it. :)

I very badly wanted to give you "Scary Christmas" mojo, but apparently I've given you too much mojo love already.

You think wayyy much about what I post.

The lawsuit filed by the drunk frat boys was thrown out, dear.

Find it hypocritical if you will, I don't really care. I refuse to defend each and every one of my posts. It is what it is. I can't stand your buddy Mel. Move on.

Mel Gibson's several sandwiches short of a picnic. His movie is not the hit the studio and he expected it to be. Call it schadenfreude if you will.

'Bang the Drum' was playing but I slept instead of paying for a headset to watch it. Too tired.
:)

I like the theory that people are being encouraged by the studio to sue Borat. A few out-of-court settlements are a small price to pay for the proof of veracity that such lawsuits bring.

Either way, funny or not, things like Borat must be making life at least a bit more difficult for legitimate documentarians.

I suppose, but I guess one could also say that of Christopher Guest movies, too. I don't see those fakeumentaries like 'Spinal Tap' ruining anything.
I get what you're saying, though.

Does Christopher Guest use unstaged scenes with unwitting participants? Then get them to sign model agreements by making them think they were part of a valid documentary? It's been so long since I saw Spinal Tap but is there anybody in that movie that didn't know they were in a movie?

If so, then yes I would include him in that statement as well.

Another film is openeing that I want to see and I can't seem to get to the ones that are already out!

Venus has been added to the list.
