    I can't believe it. I was sitting here watching the Today Show and see the commercial for this movie. At first I thought I was seeing things. This guy is a madman and he gets cast in this kind of swill.

    The Holiday Official Web Site

    I hope it's just marketing spin and he keeps his crazy guy persona.

    So, Kate Winslet gets cast as his romantic interest? What message does it send? Chubby people can only date other chubby people?

    I saw that trailer the other day before Stranger Than Fiction. I told my wife then that I won't be going to see that.

    Looks like a good movie.

    Holiday has one l in it, incidentally.

    Please leave your man card at the theatre ticket office when you arrive. It has been revoked.

    Stalking? I just point out things that prove she is a no talent phony. It's a hobby of mine.

    Yeah, the movie looks bad.

    Jack Black in a romantic role is intrigung though.

    Also--Kate Winslet isn't chubby, she's just not borderline-anorexic.

    Exactly.

    Geez you would think w/ all the Kiera bashing on this board (cause of her stick figure), people would be happy to see someone with some curves and meat on her bones. Winselt isn't fat, nor is she skinny. I'd say she's just right.

    Jack Black has already had a romantic role (basically) with that other "fat ass," Gwyneth Paltrow.

    Jack Black is an idiot. That Tenacious D movie, looks like the stupidest thing ever made.

    Worst actor ever?

    Somewhere in the Anthony Anderson's, the Frankie Muniz's and the Dolph Lundgren's he has to draw some consideration. :D

    yeah... i heard this one time.. this guy went to see a romantic comedy.... and the movie literally jumped off the screen.. and cut his balls off...



    in other news. Jack Black loves swill. Orange County. Cable Guy. Nacho Libre. Shallow Hal. And.. Tenacious D looks promising in the cinematic swill area.

    That bit part in King Kong was utter swill.. Uhm.. lets see..

    his only saving grace is School of Rock... and.. he was outstaged by the kids.. The guy was out-acted by the drummer..


    Yep. I should say... Jack Black is a lousy actor. That loves swill..

    Have you never seen High Fidelity? He was great in that movie.


    If your hobby is trying to prove that a teeny bopper is a no talent phony, then you shouldn't be talking to people about their "man card". :p
