I BELIEVE IT'S SAFE TO SAY THAT HE HATED, HATED, HATED THIS MOVIE: The WaPo's Stephen Hunter, on the new Fantastic Four film: "Hey, FTC! WAKE UP! Shouldn't some truth-in-advertising law require someone to rename "Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer" something like "Zzzzzzzz," or "Yawn," or what about "See Paint Dry!"? Isn't that your job? Surely the dullest of Hollywood's many comic-book-derived summer movies, "Silver Surfer" is drearier than corn dying in the Iowa sun, slower than molasses in Antarctica, as grim as February in Rockville. Sentient humans should stay away; all others may enter confident that their IQs are already in the Chernobyl-fried range and will not be affected, except for downward. So many flaws, so little time...."
I need to balance this post with something positive. Alright. "Don't Stop Believing," via Family Guy. And the Robot Chicken: Star Wars half-hour special debuts Sunday night.
