One of the really fun comedies ever made is on tonight on Fox Movie Channel (133 on Dish) .. "Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter?" ... Its on three times including right now .. It starts again at Midnight if anyone sees this in time ...

Tony Randall is brilliant in this, and Jayne Mansfield is just hilarious ... ****1/2 ... This is actually a film I first saw in American Cinema II class at Rutgers ....

I saw a more serious movie on Tuesday. "Babel" .. it was complex, and interesting .. but the stories didn't quite interlock well enough to me *** ... Not as good as Inarru's brilliant "Ameros Perros" ****1/2

Really great writing in Rock Hunter .. if you haven't seen it yet you should .. It just a blast.

What is a comedy you really like that a lot of people don't know about?

I heard Jayne had a very high I.Q as well,
its been said the whole dumb blonde thing with her was a huge act, but that she become obsessed with the whole self publicity thing to keep herself in the headlines.
Really tragic what happened to her.
I think if she had played her cards right, she could have done better quality stuff down the road

I saw the new Bond Casino Royale *** ... Daniel Craig's early bond is extremely diff then the other bonds .. much much more rough and tumble ..

I thought the accountant was extremely cute, but didn't did the hispanic woman early in the movie at all ...

Wil Wheaton called it the best bond ever in its blog .. It was OK but prefer Pierce Brosnan so far ...

Favorite Bond for me by far and away is Goldfinger ***** .. .That's the bond you need to see if you have not already .. Odd-Job and the hat .. Goldfinger, Pussy Galore, etc .. A really wonderful film.
