MOVIES FOR THE WEEKEND

No trips to the theater planned for this weekend. I could care less about the Fast and Furious franchise at this point, so I'll be skipping the latest installment which hits theaters today.

I think I'll wait for DVD on Adventureland, but I might check it out on a matinee in the coming weeks. It's got a great cast (the incomparable Kristen Wiig is in it; she's one of the funniest people on the planet).

I really want to see the new independent movie Sugar, from Half Nelson filmmakers Ryan Fleck and Anna Boden. That's a limited release opener this weekend so when it gets to my neck of the woods I'll be sure to check it out.

From Netflix I have the critically acclaimed French thriller Tell No One. I am psyched.

Next weekend brings Jody Hill's Observe & Report. I am BEYOND pumped for this one. I loved Hill's The Foot Fist Way and his recent HBO series Eastbound & Down. The early buzz has been white-hot. Very excited. Wish it was coming out this weekend.

I also loved The Foot Fist Way.....and only just yesterday I sat down and watched the six episode run of Eastbound and Down.

Good stuff.

Can't wait for O&R.

Yeah, Eastbound and Down was definitely something special.
