Various reviews; also, I’m dying

My reviews of last weekend’s “Rambo,” “Meet the Spartans,” and “Untraceable” are now posted. Here’s hoping the reviews are more enjoyable to read than the movies were to watch.

In other news, I’m afraid I’m coming down with the Sundance Flu, a bug that started claiming victims near the end of the festival and has continued to wreak havoc on members of the press since then. Cooped up together in the same screening rooms all day, and then sharing each other’s needles and crack pipes at night — that’s a recipe for disaster.

I’ll try to produce at least the minimum amount of work the next couple days, but if I go away for a while you’ll know why. And if the masseuse shows up tomorrow and finds me naked and dead, I hope she calls 911 before she calls anyone else. (People with the Sundance Flu are allowed to make jokes about anything they want.)

    LOL!

    My tasteless Heath Ledger joke: “Hey, did you hear? Jake Gyllenhall can finally quit Heath Ledger!”

    *cough* But seriously. Very sad.

    With those two jokes, I suddenly don’t feel as bad about worrying about whether his parts for The Dark Knight had been completed, which was my first thought upon hearing of his death.

  3. Randy Tayler Says:

    (They had been.)

  4. Karen Says:

    Thank goodness Sundance had the forethought to quarantine all the critics!

    Did you happen to catch this “flu” from a certain Hilton heiress? If so, I prescribe a shot of penicillin and some oitment.
