Last Night's Dream
So this is a weird one. Andrew Ross Sorkin, business reporter for the New York Times, attends a party at my parents’ house in Florida. Afterwards, we discover that he apparently has a habit of writing down any witty aphorisms or interesting bits of info that anybody says around him.

Simon Cowell to Leave ‘American Idol’ - Media... →
I am starting a new popular movement. DRAFT GEORGE MICHAEL. Think about it. He’s retired from performing. He knows what he’s talking about. He replaces Simon’s British accent. And he replaces Paula’s “out of my mind on drugs” factor. He is absolutely perfect and I hope his phone is ringing right now. Plus it would give us a panel that is 50% gay and 50%...

Gay marriage, Perry v. Schwarzenegger, and the... →
It’s time to admit something that we’re probably all a little afraid to say: If there’s any chance of getting marriage equality in this country before I’m a senior citizen, Perry v Schwarzenegger is that chance.

A-Team Trailer - TheFilmStage.com on Vimeo OK, yes, this is like saying “There is oxygen in the air,” but this looks incredibly stupid. Why is some nobody queen doing Mr. T drag? And why, after a long stretch of relatively down-to-earth action shots, are they suddenly CGI parachuting out of an exploding CGI jet in a CGI tank and shooting CGI planes out of the CGI sky? Garbage.
