KKras: Big News!!/License to Wed

Howdy y'all. (That was for you, Mrs. Schrute)

Two things:

  1. Over this past weekend, I rented "License to Wed" from Netflix. To be perfectly honest, the movie was not very good. If you've seen the "veritable movie suckfest" (Mrs. Schrute!!) titled "Because I Said So," you can compare it to that. It wasn't very good. It was very poorly written and at some points, a little unbelieveable (i.e. driving through the streets of Chicago blindfolded). However, it was totally and 100% amazing at the same time. This was obviously because of the wonderful and talented John Krasinski. He made the movie. Also, many of his Office cronies joined him in this movie, including Mindy Kaling (Kelly), Angela Kinsey (Angela), and Brian Baumgartner (Kevin). The four of them brought this movie from about a two to a ten (out of ten.) JKras, you can do no wrong in my eyes. Is it just me, or do these Office actors seem to travel in packs when they appear in movies? For example:
    - "The 40 Year Old Virgin" ~ Steve Carell, Mindy Kaling, Jenna Fischer (uncredited), Phyllis Smith (uncredited)
    - "Knocked Up" ~ Craig Robinson, B.J. Novak, Steve Carell
    - "Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story" (a parody of "Walk the Line") ~ Jenna Fischer, Ed Helms
    - "Evan Almighty"- Steve Carell, Ed Helms, Craig Robinson
  2. Rashida Jones returns in a new form. She's now in the Foo Fighters' new music video for their song, "Long Road to Ruin." Ugh.

    I'm so sad. The writers' strike is in full swing and because of this, SNL with host Dwayne "the Rock" Johnson and musical guest Amy Winehouse is not going to be live this week. Man, that girl can't catch a break. Oh well. I guess I'll have to wait until next Saturday.

Adios, mis amigos.
