UPDATE NO. 2: Barry Schwartz informed me Todd Phillips made “The Hangover.” The name meant nothing to me.
“Cribbs, it’s the guy who made ‘Old School.’ ‘Road Trip.’ He’s got a good track record. You want your blog to be big, right?”
“Not big. Regional,” I said.
“You gotta be on top of that.”
“I don’t like Todd Phillips. I don’t like those movies. But when I get bigger we’ll have graphics with these things.”

“The Hangover” popped up on Apple Trailers last week, and I ignored it because it was called “The Hangover,” and it had three guys in an elevator, and one of them carried a baby.

One of Cribbster’s first posts was about the first screen shots from Spike Jonze’s “Where the Wild Things Are,” one of the few children’s book adaptations I’ve ever eagerly anticipated. The crazy-ass images in the book always stuck with me, and I’m sure it’s still somewhere to be found at good, ‘ol 8410 Woodside Court (don’t murder my mother who still resides there).

Zac Effron was in "Footloose." Now he's not. Good. Because having his huge face on this blog repeatedly would make me uncomfortable.
They’re remaking “Footloose.” Why? I don’t know. The original’s kind of fantastic. And by “they,” I mean Paramount Pictures. Continue reading ‘‘Footloose’ remake to shoot in Atlanta?’
