    Three things:

    1. Mickey Rourke was fantastic in The Wrestler. He's up against stiff competition (I heard Penn was phenomenal in Milk, as was Langella in Frost/Nixon, though I never saw either), but I can't imagine any performance could beat his.

    2. Michael Cera is a douchebag, and it was absolutely Arrested Development that got him famous. I believe I've read in an interview that it was his work in AD that got him noticed by the Apatow Crew; even if not, it was his first time with any success in an American market. And I have to agree with Chris, he definitely plays George Michael in everything he does (and I saw him in Juno and Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist).

    3. Brandon Frasier just makes me laugh every time I see his face on anything. He's got to be one of the lamest people on earth.

      I've come to accept that Stephen will never agree with me on anything.

        It's nothing personal Nathaniel. You're just wrong most of the time.

      Thanks for the backup on the Cera thing! And yes, Frasier's lameness makes me laugh any time I see him also. He should stick to non-speaking rolls like Encino Man…

    I also agree with Chris on Michael Cera. When I saw the midnight showing of Superbad, there had to have been at least 30 people wearing "We Love Michael Cera" shirts, and he got an outstanding cheer the first time he appeared on screen. I would go as far as to say that part of the reason Superbad got so big in the first place was because of all the people that were enthralled by the idea of seeing the character of George Michael in a sex comedy.

    Everyone can have their opinion. Yours is wrong, but you're entitled to have it. :-)
