I'd say liking SJP was an unpopular opinon, other than Carrie she's completely awful at everything and she's even quite annoying as Carrie.

And she looks like a foot

She's actually very nice and was quite good in LA Story

Yeah she was funny in that. And from her appearances on Conan she does seem quite nice. I've changed my mind ---- I love her!

Wall-E is okay but not a masterpiece.

though i have yet to experience Wall•E (probably this thursday), i must say i tingle a bit each time i read a lackluster review.  thanks also to Basil!

roner, ages ago (last summer) you were talking about coming into chicago for a day trip, any chance of that still?  movies in grant park is pretty cool...

I'll be interested in hearing your take on Wall-E after you've seen it.  Most people saw it either at the start or during the big hype for the movie.  It'll be interesting to hear from someone who listened to all the hype then saw the flick. 

As far as a trip into the city, yeah I'd still be interested depending on schedule and what movie is playing.

the grant park films are tuesday nights, but there is usually something worthwhile playing (music box, siskel, doc, etc.).  i haven't been to many movies lately, too busy and tight budget, an excuse to get out is always good.
But I wish the public could, in the midst of its pleasures, see how blatantly it is being spoon-fed, and ask for slightly better dreams.

Baby Mama is better than the Wedding Crashers and the 40 Year Old Virgin.

I agree with the Wedding Crashers part, but I still like 40 Year Old Virgin better. Maybe if Baby Mama had given Romany Malco more to do, I'd give it the edge.

I love Steve Carell but the last hour of Virgin is pretty bad. What is with the scene with the chick in the tub?

Wedding Crashers was a huge let down. Great cast but just not all that funny. Never understood the critical reaction.

Maybe it's a case of low expectations combined with my affection for the cast but Baby Mama hit the spot.

What? What are you talking about? It's girls and spaghetti. We love girls and spaghetti.
