    The guy in It’s Kind of a Funny Story who you guys talk about before talking about Jeremy Davies (Daniel Faraday from LOST) is Adrian Martinez, he plays Johnny in It’s Kind of a Funny Story .

    Also, I had the same projection problems (@89:00) when I saw Scott Pilgrim — the bottom stats were cut off

    Yeah, it was pretty frustrating. Ironic thing is that I’m never willing to get up and say something to the theater staff because I don’t want to miss anything while the film is playing. They really need something in the seats (like the flight attendant assistance buttons on planes) that theater goers can use to alert the staff of issues like that.

    Ok, after looking Adrian up, I have seen him in a couple of things.nnP.S. Re: Your post on facebook, I don’t think we hate everything. We may be a little vocal on the things we don’t like… but we rant just as much in favor of the things we love.

    This episode was exceptionally hilarious. Albert is a funny dude. And I agree with him that M. Night still has a good movie in him. Unbreakable is one of my favorite films, and I would love to see him get back into that mode.nnAlso, I saw Going the Distance awhile back. Don’t let the trailers fool you, it’s a seriously hilarious hard R-rated comedy in the vein of Knocked Up. It’s well worth checking out.
