12.26.08	DVD	Man... Tom Cruise dancing is just so odd. I liked this one seeing it again. The adoption thing was a bit stronger the second time through. McConaughey lamenting about how Tuggernuts at least gets to choose his son was perhaps my biggest laugh. Good stuff.
08.22.08	Cinemark Pflugerville	Pretty damn funny. I remember when I first saw Zoolander and it wasn't really connecting with a lot of people right away but now it's considered a classic in a lot of circles. I got a similar sense from this... some of the turns are so bizarrely odd and extreme that I think a lot of audiences instinctively reject it at first, but I bet Tom Cruise's little G5 dance will soon become something widely emulated at parties. Downey and Jack Black also have some amazing facial acting here. I can't believe the expressions they pull off. I would've liked to have seen more from just about everybody but I guess that's what the DVD is for. good stuff for sure. Man, this summer's turning out to be one of the best in recent memory.
