Do you think College Road Trip will be a close second? It has the whole family-oriented vibe.

I know we'll be going to it for sure. The boy still has a thing for Raven. I don't mind, she's a sweet girl with a great voice.

A.O. Scott's review of 10,000 B.C. in today's New York Times made me laugh out loud.

a sample:

God, I LOVE A.O.

Here is where I'd quote my favorite A.O. review - if I hadn't just quoted it in conversation with Jesse all of two weeks ago.

Honestly I haven't a clue. I would never pay for it but I also don't have any sense on how hot the teen passion for Raven is. Five years ago I think it would have opened pretty big (when I saw her and the reaction the Princess Diaries 2 premiere I didn't even know she was still working) but I don't know any more.

She's pretty fun to watch, and it is great to see a normal body figure treated as that (as opposed to a normal body figure being presented as fat but ok). It's a good Disney channel movie (in terms of quality it reminded me of Saintly Switch if you ever saw that, which was a Disney Channel movie).

I kind of wondered if they planned it for TV but then got Lawrence to sign on and figured they might as well try something bigger.

TeeHee, I can't wait for the future casa de mousepod double feature of 10,0000 B.C. and Mysterious Island.

(But where does One Million Years B.C. with Raquel Welch fit in??)

...with Clan of the Cave Bear, of course. BTW, we'd have to watch the UK version of One Million Years BC - the US version was edited...

... wait, maybe instead of Clan we could have Caveman with Ringo Starr...

And at 22 she is a very attractive young woman. Particularly in the late scenes when she's dressed for an interview. She works professional attire very well.

Just watched Michael Clayton finally. Really enjoyed it. I was glad they didn't go in the direction I thought they would. The acting was great, even the guy from Caddyshack. Damn, he got old.
