DVD Tuesday: Will Smith Sucks

Hancock wasn't a terrible movie, but--like everything in which Will Smith meddles--it was mediocre and toothless. It would have been a better movie if superhero Jason Bateman had played the, uh, superhero. I don't get 24. Never have. Never will. I mean, don't people realize that it's Kiefer Sutherland up there on the screen. Anyone really scared of facing down Kiefer in a bar fight? Does anyone still think Jon Stewart is funnier than Stephen Colbert? David Lynch's films don't always work for me, but I love that he exists.

It's nowhere near Rushmore or the supreme achievement of The Royal Tennenbaums, but Bottle Rocket is a great first feature from Wes Anderson. The fact that it's a Criterion release = automatic purchase, of course. Same goes for Spy and Express, too (buy them for me, family!) With shame, I must admit that I didn't really get Freaks & Geeks when it was on TV. I am completely sold on James Franco now, though. Wait till Milk, people! You'll be sold on him, too! And the story will fill you with a tragic sense of regret.

Forget about Hancock - the Pink Panther Ultimate Collection includes the god-awful 2006 Steve Martin and Beyonce version?

Did anyone else think it was inappropriate to allow Beyonce to feature her crap - I mean music in the movie? I mean, I like to "check up on it and work up on it [ass]" as much as the next guy, but to feature that song with her wearing nothing and, well, shaking her big ass(because that's all she can do), in a PG movie and have the video w/the Pink Panther cartoon starting it off is not a good idea.

No wonder there are so many teens shaking their ass on video - because of this gyrating classy woman.

Does this 12 year old belong to anyone?

Stay classy America.

Finally someone who thinks like me. Will Smith is probably the worst actor... Well... Mark Wahlberg's acting in 'The happening' is one of the worst ever...
