My weekend's only disappointment: the OddMan's Geek Test score was disappointing low -- a 16.96252% Geek. I'd hoped his scifi library and tech job would have provided a significantly higher score.

I give Roger Dodger a thumbs down. What did you like about it? I have loved Campbell Scott ever since he stole my heart in Singles all those years ago. But in this moive I just wished he would shut the fuck up, which of course, is the point, but it does not make for pleasant viewiing.
One thing about that movie that tied in with the FB was his writing in lipstick on Rosallini's mirro "she likes it up the ass". what was that thread awhile back? THat its a way of marking your territory- showing you fully conquered her?
And speaking of DVDs= I saw Sunset Boulevard this weekend (trying to get the occasional classic in now that I am over my life long fear of black and white movies). I now realize that a few movies have borrowed from it. American Beauty took its opening sequence from Sunset for sure. And Faye Dunway, who was lambasted and iconized simultaenously for her over the top performance in "Mommie" clearly drew from the over the top performances of the days gone by like that from GLoria Swanson. I saw "The Women" and saw similar over the topness. I beleive they thought this was good acting back then, so why wasnt it when Mommie came out? I call Faye' performance a tribute.
and it was a good flick. I recommend.
