This is a crummy way to start my day. Unbelievable. RIP Mr. Breitbart. I regret not having had a chance to meet you in person.

I'm risking some down thumbs here, but here goes:
Truthfully, it's not simply the politics of the cast that makes me leery of the movie, although that does play a factor. It's the director/writer Joss Whedon. I know that many people are all happy because they think that he can nail it, but truth be told I was never that impressed. Sure, he had Buffy, and people still call "Firefly" criminally underrated, but truthfully I find his work over rated. I feel like all his characters, regardless of circumstances, delve into the same bag of tricks. Snarkiness, sarcasim, and the occasional attempts at genuiness that feel forced. I think that Whedon will be the downfall of this movie, and it will kill his standing in Hollywood. Or at least among fans.

A few lazy swipes at conservatism and a nod to the OWS crowd hardly counts as enough to make me happy. To me it's like being happy that I was flogged less today than yesterday. As far as Chris Rock's comments about voice actors go, he's an obnoxious twit who has no business commenting on it. Being a voice actor use to mean that you actually displayed something called "range." Just because you aren't in front of a camera doesn't mean that it takes no talent. I think he's confusing his own underwhelming lack of ability as how the real voice acting (or acting period) community functions.

We recently had a guy in the church I go to get back from deployment just in time to see the birth of his first daughter, my wife and I weren't able to catch a glimpse of their new one because of the crowd around them congratulating them.

Take a second to consider what I just wrote. If you don't realize that modern Hollywood represents the antithesis of everything that the sentence stands for than you don't know modern Hollywood. This article touches on so many truths that it would take a series of articles to just to explain to Hollywood lib. Why should I continue to shell out money and time to see the same insipid garbage that they make year after year. Why should I even attempt to see the movies that are up for best picture when I can pretty much count on them to contain numerous stabs at my beliefs?

Hollywood hates me and I that I stand for. But it's okay Hollywood, don't worry. I hate you too.

Johnny Depp as Kolchak? Not only are they trying to replace the unreplacable McGavin, but they can't even find a man to play the role. Geez.

I don't have many people on twitter who follow me, but I did tweet about it. I will also post up a link on facebook to the trailer to help get word out. I'm a sucker for most things with Christopher Lloyd, and the film looks fun. Hope it does well.

Sorry to speak ill here John, but you need to have better research/investingation into the links you provide at times. I clicked and read the article about the "7 worst role models for women in Romantic Comedies" and it had a few slams on Christians and wrapped up with a slam on Mitt Romney. (Not that I'm a supporter, just that a cheap shot at a Romney seemed like a stupid way to wrap up the article.)

So Kevin Smith wants to "help" other indie film makers get noticed? How come I smell a rat? Wait, that's just Kevin Smith. Probably starting to think that the best way to make a new name for himself is to ride the coattails of others. Figures.
