    Let's Go To The [Theater] Hop

    I fully enjoyed The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard. Jeremy Piven has redeemed himself from Smokin' Aces by letting Temeculan Ari Gold have his own movie. Rob Riggle, Buster Bluth, Ving Rhames, James Brolin & Will Ferrell are great & genuine participants in a well rounded & high-larious ensemble cast. I also appreciated the respectful approach to hustlers, strippers, smoking on planes & non glamorous DJ work. The return of the R rated, blue collar comedy did not come a moment too soon. It's great to see Neal Brennan, Chappelle Show writer/collaborator and funny guy, cranking out some good material. This movie's roots are easily identifiable in Used Cars, an R rated blue collar comedy starring Curt Russell.

    Bonus Round: Distict 9 was equally great but obviously in a different way. Peter Jackson & Neill Blomkamp have triumphantly made sci fi widely relevant & not just cautionary. The doc style turned fugitive action movie was funny, ironic & truthful. The plot was multi layered (as was The Goods), moving & without a typically happy ending (as was The Goods).

    I believe both will have long, happy lives re running forever on cable TV & eternally being Bit Torrent-ed.

    Super Bonus Round Preview: Extract. I love Mike Judge and Jason Bateman. I'm seriously hoping for the Office Space of manufacturing in this movie.
