I watched two movies back-to-back while I was finishing the comic, here are the notes for the second one

I love the US version of The Office, and I like what John Krasinski brings to his character. I love Robin Williams, his HBO show being one of my favorite one-man show. Mandy Moore is kinda cute and isn't all that bad an actress. Wait, there's a movie with all three of those, directed by a guy who directed some Office episodes? I'm in!

Too bad the story's lame, really. A couple about to get married get tested by a weird (almost creepy) reverend (Robin Williams), and hilarity ensues (not). Despite giving it all they got, the actors seem out of place. Robin Williams isn't even funny despite throwing one-liners at every turn. This would have been okay as a twenty-minute sitcom episode, really.

Fun thing though, a bunch of actors from The Office appear as cameos throughout the movie - which makes it feel even weirder.

Is this really my fourth movie for today? I started In the Shadow of the Moon and then thought "Hmm, maybe I've had enough movies for today". So I'm off to read the new comics I bought, and then SLEEP! Yay!
