@BabyJane: Did she learn nothing about the dangers of reckless driving from her "Vanilla Sky" experience? Or did she get that movie totally Eternal Sunshine-d from her memory?

She's lagging a little behind, but that's understandable -- walking through spiderwebs would slow anybody down.

J-Lo + gruff paternal figure + Ben Stiller? Perhaps some sort of crossover "Meet The Parents"/"Monster in Law" sequel.

The stacked-up cars backdrop really produces a proverbial "she stopped traffic" effect, especially with Vail Bloom.

Also, I love that Queen Latifah photo. It's refreshing to see someone look so relaxed, casual and jovial on the red carpet.

She appears to be back to her feisty-teenage-niece weight from "Under Siege 2." Steven Seagal to the rescue!

For some reason, I'm more interested in discussing the second-hottest team in baseball.

My sister pulled a Daniel Craig last year, slicing off her fingertip during a lake vacation. I'm keeping the text message forever: "Lost a finger at the lake. Always an adventure w/me. Don't tell mom!"

Why put an actress in cornrows when the already-cornrowed Lady Sovereign just sits by the phone, waiting for that first film role?

SJP pulls off the mermaid look smashingly. Also, I know Miss Piggy, and I've never heard of Nicole Forester, though I feel she deserves better than "the ugly," especially after taking the time to color-coordinate with the poster behind her.

Wed, 28 May 2008 09:56:14 EDT

As far as political endorsements go, this is much better than when Berry, as Nina in "Bulworth," expressed her approval for Senator Jay Billington Bulworth (Warren Beatty) by telling him "you my nigga!" Many people at the inner-city theater at which I saw that film were highly nonplussed at that scene.

garbageday commented on Is Ugly Betty Headed To Broadway?

Wed, 28 May 2008 09:12:49 EDT

On first glance, I read "lardy arse" as "lady ass" in Cockney, like "I have a womanly bum." Which would sound quaint, but really wouldn't work in the complaint context.

Tue, 27 May 2008 11:19:06 EDT

@HIV 2 Elway: Perhaps if you've listened to the Royals on radio, you've heard the omnipresent (seemingly every inning break), inadvertently tragicomic commercial in which a woman blurts "Honey, it says here the Royals lead the league in really bad innings." The guy smugly corrects "no, that's RBI-runs batted in." Aside from the obvious hackery of the women-are-idiots-who-can't-comprehend-sports gag, this ad grates because:
1) The Royals are literally the furthest squad from the top of major league baseball's Runs Batted In standings.
2) The Royals probably DO lead the league in Really Bad Innings. Vindication, mocked wife!

garbageday commented on Synecdoche, New York Premiere: Can't Wait for the Movie, Can Wait for the Ugly Dresses

Tue, 27 May 2008 10:41:33 EDT

@tweenmama: Agreed about Samantha Morton -- she really can do no wrong. "Morvern Callar" is probably her signature role, but "Code 46," "Enduring Love" (with Daniel Craig) and "Elizabeth: The Golden Age" (in which she plays a crucial supporting role) are also essential.

Hopefully, all this Morton praise will serve as self-penance for the fact that through my just-woke-up squint, I thought she was Lindsay Lohan in the post-opening picture.

Ahh, "Synecdoche." I haven't thought of this word since high school English, when one lad mispronounced it "sonic douche," inadvertently earning himself a nickname he couldn't shake.
