And with that Oscars, you take yet another step in the direction of the Grammys. The only way I could care now is if Spider-Man 2 recieved it's rightfully deserved 10 nominations (oh, I counted it out, and it should probably truthfully only be 9, but if J.K. Simmons changed his name to Geoffry Rush he'd have that fucker in the bag).

Speaking of absolutely inferior sequels to overrated movies making a mint, Meet the Fockers is going to outgross The Incredibles and may hit $300 million. If this is what America spends on comedy during a bad economy, jebus only knows what'll happen if we ever recover. So is Dodgeball 2 going to make $450 million? Rush Hour 3, $605 million?
SM2... picture, director, actor, screenplay, FX, score, editing, ... ? Supporting actor? Art direction? K-Dunst gets "best line reading" for "whatever *that* means!"

We had this odd discussion around here last week about why shitty movies like Fockers make so much freaking money. One theory is that over the holiday there really wasn't anything to go see with your whole family (unless you go see Incredibles again, which mine did). And though I hate to think that geriatric sex jokes and a flushed purse pooch are family-friendly humor, I suppose we have to chalk it up to "America: What the Fuck?!"
And don't get me started on goddamn Spider-Man 2. Supporting actor? For which one? James Franco has one expression, and Alfred Molina, however much I loved him in Coffee and Cigarettes, did a Pacino on the (digital) scenery.
