The Good, The Bad, and The Really, Really Unnecessary

Hero is hitting theaters wide this weekend. Go see it. Twice. It's that good. Don't see Anacondas: The Hunt for the Blood Orchid even with Salli Richardson in it. She's not that hot. And dear lord, don't even look at the poster for SuperBabies: Baby Geniuses 2. It stars Scott Baio. Apparently he is hoping for a Jason Bateman-like come back. No Scott. Not for you. Jon Voight is in it too, proving he's just as capable of picking crappy roles as his daughter is. Though she tends to realize halfway through most of her flicks that it's a dog and tries to save it with a pointless nude scene. I pray Jon does not do this. Though the MPAA rating of PG was rewarded for action violence and some rude humor NOT old balls, so the world is safe - for now. The Brown Bunny also hits select theaters this weekend. It promises to feature "a very sorrowful fellatio scene".

John Voight proved that a long time ago. Remember the original Anaconda? Co-starring Ice Cube? And what about that made for TV epic about Noah? Yikes.

Yeah. And don't forget Karate Dog - co-starring Chevy Chase and your boy, Simon Rex. I don't know if it's actually seen the light of day, but they certainly filmed it, and it's in the can somewhere.

Holy crap, there is such a thing as Karate Dog. It's going on my Netflix.

And I just imdb'd Simon Rex and was laughing at his early film ventures. "Young, Hard, and Solo - Part 2 and Part 3" And more recently, "Hot Sessions 11 and 12." hahahahaha
