Hey Ma! I didn't fall asleep!

I have (sadly) shunned John Cusack movies of late, but when something wins anything at Sundance I feel morally obligated to check it out. I'm not sure if the 90 pounds and "dad glasses" he put on for his role in Grace Is Gone added to my experience watching this movie... The girls playing his daughters were pretty great too, and overall it was most definitely watchable. Catch it on TNT or USA, because that's surely its next stop.

Taking a break from anti-Iraq-war movies to re-watch Freaks and Geeks, AKA those great people before Judd Apatow got his grubby hands on them.

[Ed. note - turns out, Judd Apatow is responsible for Freaks and Geeks. But why do I love it so? The world is an imperfect place.]

Incidentally, why didn't anyone tell me that Kevin Smith was responsible for Zack and Miri Make a Porno? I totally would've gone to see it... at the $3 theater. I might just have to hold out for this next genius endeavor. The song itself is awesomely bad.

On that note - go Penguins!
