HE HANDED US FICTION AFTER FICTION AND WE PRINTED THEM ALL AS FACT. JUST BECAUSE ... WE FOUND HIM ENTERTAINING. IT'S INDEFENSIBLE. DON'T YOU KNOW THAT? The AV Club's list of the twenty best film performances of the Aughts includes only two from the same film (You Can Count On Me), no love for double-Oscar winner Sean Penn, Nic Cage's doubly-awesome gonzo performance in Adaptation or the luminous Kate Winslet (Clementine!). The list is deficient on comic performances (possible additions: Johnny Depp, PotC; RDJ, Tropic Thunder; Steve Carell, 40YOV; Mark Wahlberg, The Departed; Owen Wilson or Ben Stiller, Zoolander; Michael Douglas, Wonder Boys) and, seriously, Ben Kingsley may want them to turn this opportunity YES. All in all, though, it's certainly more right than wrong, and I think we've got something to discuss.
