It was as entertaining as I expected it to be.
Extended commentary: There were some really funny lines. It wasn't *good*, but it wasn't as terrible as, say, "Van Helsing", which went so far past bad that it headed back into good territory...and then kept on going back towards bad again. You need to not think about things too closely though, or else you'll want to yell at the screen.
There was a teaser trailer for "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", supposedly coming in May. From Disney. There was also a preview for "Son of the Mask", to which I say, "Why, God, WHY did you have to let Alan Cumming and Ben Stein be in that movie??" Alan Cumming as Loki, and at least a cameo from Ben Stein. Damnit. If it weren't for that, I'd have been able to safely ignore it and now I have to at least cringingly consider renting it.

Ben Folds and Rufus Wainwright, "Careless Whisper (Live)"
I'm listening to the same disc!

What disc is that on? I saw them do this live a few months back and it was so great. I NEED to relive this! :-)

anyway. i think I snuck into van helsing somewhere. I got the DVD, maybe i'll watch it again and see if it was as bad as everyone is telling me it is ;)
