Que? I can't find it on Netflix.

It was on Sundance Channel. It's ultra-dark dry comedy in a sort of alternate universe starring Zack Galifinakis.

The same thing could be said of his standup comedy special. BTW, his real name is Zacharius Knight Galifianakis. Just adds to the weird.

EDIT: And he's currently filming a new MUPPETS movie? I have no words. Check out the freaking cast: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1204342/

it's a who's who of white comedy.

really though, any actor/actress/comedian/athlete/celebrity should give their left arm to be a part of any Muppet or Sesame Street production.

imo.

great cast, but odd, a bunch of really funny men, one real female comedian/comedy actress (Rashida Jones), but the 4 women are all really hot

He got picked for the role before...and then they dropped that movie for the Superman Returns snorefest. Apparently someone thinks he's perfect for a new take on Superman. We'll see. Very different from any role I've seen him in.

Rashida Jones is off-white. Sort of a very attractive mocha. Hmmm.

Well...she's probably real, supposedly female, and tells jokes, but that's about it.

Machete.

Lot's of fun. There's pretty much nothing at this point that I wouldn't watch Jessica Alba do.

I'd like to watch her eat a steak and french fries.

Ladies and gentlemen...

COWBOYS AND ALIENS
(wherein James Bond and Han Solo team up with a posse of cowboys to defeat alien invasion)
TRAILER:

The greatest movie of all time.

saltydad · « **Reply #1643 on:** February 07, 2011, 12:55:10 am »

Sounds great!!

Potomac Cannons · « **Reply #1644 on:** February 07, 2011, 01:26:23 am »

Peter and Vandy. Very awkward indie flick about two really screwed up people who are bad for each other but even worse for others.

Looks like all 14 HBO specials for George Carlin are now streaming on Netflix. There goes tomorrow's productivity.

True Grit was one of the funniest movies I have seen in a few months.

I thought it was supposed to be like real super serious, artsy Oscar-bait snobby type stuff....

but I was rolling throughout the whole movie.

So is that bad? Are you saying that it was supposed to be serious but it came off cheesy? Or is it still worth seeing?
