No way! Ali G is in this movie? Gotta see it now. Let's hope its Anchorman Will Ferrell and not Bewitched Will Ferrell.

Agreed. It will be this summer's Wedding Crashers, complete with an August release.

(snickers to self)

For some odd reason this happened to me. I was on a business trip trying to kill time for my flight and I went to see Cast Away, it was in its 589th week in release so I was the only one in the theater (literally). That was until this strange guy came into the theater who gave me child molestor vibes. It was one of those mini 40 seat theaters and luckily he didn't sit next to me but I got up to got to the bathroom and had to pass by him and he was "hanging out". Who does this sort of thing anyway?

Anywho, I didn't go back inside and chose to sit inside Del Taco for 2 hours instead.

Dude had a thing for horribly drawn out story lines and humanized volleyballs? That's one hell of a fetish!

I bet D-Dogg yesterday that this flick will pull in more than $30M this weekend. I compare it to Wedding Crashers, which also had a late-summer opening and raked in $33.9M opening weekend and $209M total. Not sure if RB will crack $200M though.

The HSX option play is $35M, so I like my chances.

I am not normally a huge Will Ferrell fan, but when I went and saw Pirates of the Caribbean they showed the trailer for Ricky Bobby and I can't wait to see it.

Word is this is worse than Anchorman, and I thought Anchorman was pretty bad.

It certainly looks even stupider than that.
