Unless you're thrill. Then The Notebook is The Notebook for dudes.

Made a rare theater appearance and watched "The Hangover" the past weekend. Definitely a hilarious movie, although I thought it could've been just a bit funnier throughout the course of the movie. Although once the credits hit, it just landed the in the A+ category. It'll be one that I buy on dvd when it comes out. Definitely a movie that I could rewatch quite a bit, right on par w/ Old School if you liked that.

I watched the Korean genre-bender The Host streaming on Netflix. It is your classic horror/tragedy/comedy/drama/social-political indictment/suspense-thriller movie. I can't think of a single movie to compare it to. I thought it was very well done and really enjoyed it.

It's an amazing blend of genres. After I saw it, I kept thinking "that shouldn't have worked at all." Yet it did.

Crossing Over-Uggggggggggggh. Has any actor fallen farther than Harrison Ford? Also, I hate Crash even more now for spawning an endless number of mediocre/terrible movies with ensemble casts and 10 different story lines that vaguely and implausibly intersect.

I finally saw Role Models last night. I thought it was really funny. I particularly enjoyed the reformed crack whore/program leader.

I thought the same thing. I also thought she was the funniest character in the "40 Year Old Virgin".

You guys should watch Party Down. She is great on that show.
