Apparently most of the US released copies are the overdub that flattens out the accents enough to kind of get what they're saying, at least that's what I understand from a friend who saw it in England.

I tried very, very hard last night to watch I (heart) Huckabees. I am not sure why I did this.

Did they really pull that steamship up that mountain?

And that scene in Aguirre, the Wrath of God, where he blows away the natives during a conversion to christianity over a simple language misunderstanding, was a classic.

Prime Suspect 2. Good show. I'd probably consider it an indirect precursor to the Wire.

Over The Hedge--The super-hyper Steve Carell-squirrel is very funny, especially at the end, when the Bruce Willis-racoon gives him caffeine.

Have you ever seen Iron Giant? There's a scene in there where the kid gets espresso. Very funny.

I'm in the middle of Red Dwarf VIII. It's a fun season. Too bad it was the last one.

I re-watched The Pacifier with my sister and my mother this weekend. It's still funny the third time through. Not as rewatchable as Airplane, but cute.
