It’s almost not worth reviewing…Dodgeball is like a long Saturday Night Live skit, or the type of movie you put on while you are doing something else. There are a few very funny, physical-comedy scenes, but other than those bits, there’s not much to it. Rip Torn’s wrench chucking scene was the best part of the movie.

What are you talking about? This is one of the funniest things I’ve seen all year. Well…that and Wedding Crashers…and I don’t really like Vince Vaughn that much…funny how that works.
This movie is so steriotypical it’s funny.

Listening to:

Artist: Santogold

Reminds me of The Go! Team with half of the bouncy happiness drained out and replaced with M.I.A.

Last watched:

The Wrestler

Director: Fox Searchlight

If there's one thing Aronofsky knows how to do, it's how to portray bleakness.

Reading:

Anathem

Author: Neal Stephenson

One of my favorite things about this book is that in this fictional world there are names given to ideas that ought to have names in the real world. For instance, Diax's Rake is the idea that you shouldn't believe something just because you want to. The name itself isn't that important, but I like that Stephenson recognizes that some ideas deserve to be acknowledged.

Playing:

Red Dead Redemption

Publisher: Rockstar Games

Like GTA in the Old West, but so far, more interesting. I just hope that the buddy characters don't require the same kid-gloved hand-holding from GTA4.
