I enjoyed The Namesake as well. It proved that Kal Penn is capable of not coming across as a perpetually stoned and he just generally chooses not to (he seems stoned on House even).

As far as W, I think it will be a movie that I wait a half decade to watch. Honestly, at this point I just don't feel the need to sit through a dramatization of such recent history.

Thirded.

It looks like we're going to Igor this afternoon. Regal cinema is having their Can Film Festival and of course Igor is the only kids movie playing. The boy is excited though becuase he can stop school early and see a movie that won't cost Mom a dime. Well ok, a buck for soda but that's not bad. I told the boy I was going to see The Women instead, he did not find that funny!

I fourth the Namesake. Picked it as a totally random netflix choice and I really liked it.

I saw part of The Namesake the other night on cable. I should rent it so I can see the whole thing.

I had a free rental coupon so picked up Across the Universe. I plan to watch it this weekend.

Across The Universe - I think that one has had a couple of flurries of reaction in this thread, but I'm happy to reiterate that I really liked it - I loved some of it, cringed at one or two scenes, but overall, I was surprised at how much I got out of it. But it's no Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. (I bet you can find that one cheap, too. I dare ya!)

George Clooney apparently is going to be the Lone Ranger. Depp as Tonto.
Rumor has it...

I like George Clooney. I will watch him in almost anything.

I will not watch him as the Lone Ranger.

Aren't you going to review it for MP?

Oh, damn. Did you have to remind me of that? Isn't it bad enough I have to go watch Beverly Hills Chihuahua tomorrow?
