Grosse Pointe Blank 2

Just to update you all on my home theatre (im sure you are all incredibly concerned). The home theatre is working again, though the display screen seems toast. It constantly lights up everything all the time. Sucks, but at least my surround sound isnt toast.

I was even able to watch a movie, and the movie chosen was "War Inc.". John Cusack has referred to this movie as kind of a spritual sequel to Grosse Pointe Blank, though he strangely didnt do any press for the flick (not unusal for him) or even show up for the premire with the rest of the cast. And this is a movie he co-wrote.

Anyways, its worth viewing if you liked GPB. In addition to John, His sister Joan, and Dan Akroyd all are in the flick in GPB similar roles. The movie goals off the rails a bit near the end, and fails a bit at some of things its obviously trying to achieve, but it was enjoyable. Also in there are Marisa Tomei and Hillary Duff. Everyone should watch the movie to see how well Duff plays a hootchie, and to see what she does with that scorpion.

Me too. His solo DVD is really good, and it comes with the ability to download the audio of all the songs on the DVD.
