    Re: For Your Consideration

    I know that's the standard Guest ensemble cast, but Gervais should have a bigger role. Matter of fact, I'm ready to see him in more stuff.

    Speaking of, did anybody watch the HBO "Extra's"? It's not out on DVD yet, but I'm definitely interested.

    Season 2 of Extras is airing (or just about to air) on BBC. Shouldn't be long before it starts over here.

    I heard it was weak. Personally, I think they peaked with Best in Show. All those other films score a solid "meh" with me (that does not include Spinal Tap since it's not the same ensemble).

    I think they're all great. Best In Show is the most "mainstream"...however you wanna take that...but I've enjoyed (and own) them all. I think the characters in Best in Show were more over the top than the characters in most of the others, but I'm pretty impressed with the reallness of the others.

    Parker Posey in it makes it worth while for me.

    A Mighty Wind was a close second to BIS.

    I still can't wait for this one.

    There's a puppy in the parlour
    And a skillet on the stove
    A smelly old blanket
    That a Navajo wove.

    Re: For Your Consideration

    Welp, I enjoyed it. We sat behind a group of Sooners who were at the OU/OSU game prior to coming to the movie. At any rate, I'm not as big a fan of the non-documentary-style movie that they've done with A Mighty Wind and this one, but it was still greatness. These people are so great that the characters in the documentary style films seemed so real...the traditional movie style doesn't have that same feel but it was still great.

    Their mockery of all the different media-types was outstanding.

    Yep. It's still my favorite. I like the new additions to the cast since then...there are really some great "new" ones...but it's starting to get to be a lot. There are so many that you don't become as familiar with the characters as you did in Guffman.

    In that respect, it's probably better that they went away from the documentary style.

    I just watched AMW again and noticed that it is the documentary style. One of the guys I watched FYC with said that AMW wasn't doc-style, and I couldn't remember. At any rate, I'm a much bigger fan of that style than of the more traditional style they did this time. They are just so talented at the improvisational part in the documentaries that it's a shame to have a more traditional style that hinders the improv.

    Fred Willard is a genius.
