INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS - What!

INGLOURIUS BASTERDS web site almost running...

But it does have a trailer: INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS.

Brad Pitt seems to be channeling Warren Oates...not a bad thing at all...

PINEAPPLE EXPRESS - wow, do I feel like an old geezer

Maybe it was Seth Rogen's constant screaming that made this movie so ponderous for me...or maybe its my age. After popping the DVD out of my player, my wife yelled from another room (she didn't watch it but could hear the dialog), "That was terrible!"

While I didn't think much of the film (although I got a kick out of James Franco's performance - not in a Sean Penn as Spicoli way, but it was good to see him break away from a sort of type he's played), I chalked it up to the fact that I'm no longer a weed-adled 20 year old, which is the ideal demographic for this movie.

I found myself defending PINEAPPLE EXPRESS, saying to my wife, "I'm sure when somebody my [current] age saw CHEECH AND CHONG'S NEXT MOVIE when it first came out, they didn't find it nearly as hilarious as I did..."

I was 20 when CHEECH AND CHONG'S NEXT MOVIE came out...and I was literally rolling in the aisles...
