PROP 8: THE HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL! (not affiliated with HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL, thankfully)

[thehefner]

I can honestly say that I think there's a little something for every single one of you on my f-list in this video:

Y'know, this reminds me, I wish I had John C. Reilly's career. Besides the monologues, I would love to be the guy whose career has him doing films with Scorsese, arthouse dramas, broad comedies*, musicals, Stanley Kowalski on Broadway, a TV show on Adult Swim, and even a couple tracks for an album of pirate songs.

I want his agent now, damn it. John C. Reilly has my dream career.



*Too many to count specifically, but I will say that WALK HARD: THE DEWEY COX STORY is a hilarious film that dearly needs to be discovered and embraced years later, like ZOOLANDER was.

Rock on Jack Black Jesus, rock on.
And I think I screamed like a girl when Neil Patrick Harris popped up at the end. Though it shouldn't have been a surprise really.

I love you so much. Thank you for posting this. You have made my day, and my life, so much better for it.

At first, I was like "Oh cool, it's Margaret Cho!" and then I was like "Holy shit! It's John C. Riley!" and then Jack Black came out and made me squee. But then, the always wonderful and entertaining Neil Patrick Harris had to close the show. It was all pure win.

I just threw Zoolander on my Netflix queue. More as an experiment than anything else.

I suspect I won't like it, and so do they. They claim that the average rating of it is 3.4, and they think I'll rate it a 2. Probably based largely on the fact that I hated Anchorman.

But the experiment to see if they're right will be interesting.

I got the same impression of Walk Hard. Reilly seems to want to do comedies like Will Ferrell, since he also did Stepbrothers. I just don't like those films, but I don't want to close things off unnecessarily, either.
