What are the odds that two Jackie Earle Haley vehicles would be mentioned in the same thread? That's just weird. I saw All the King's Men this past winter & couldn't help but think of Kelley Leak every time that he appeared on screen.

Loved Breaking Away. Actually read the book (based on the film) before I saw the movie. I still have the paperback if anyone wants to borrow it.

To make Grumpier Old Men you would have to dig up Jack Lemon, Walter Matthieu, and Burgess Meredith. Kevin Pollack is the only male actor from that movie that is still alive.

If we'd bothered to get on Venus Cop like we should've, we'd already be a third of the way there to a superior trilogy: Venus Cop II: Criminal Desire, and Venus Cop III: Here Come the Love Gods.

Does that mean we need Even Grumpier Older Men to be made?

I think The Mighty Ducks is really the only trilogy to come out of MN. Aren't we proud.

I went to college with "Adam Banks". Lots of whispers and sneaky looks. I think he was a business major or something. Figures, right = character from Edina?

I should start a blog so I can ask “what the fuck is wrong with minnesota regarding public transportation?” and then answer.

I own Slapshot and Slapshot 2.

And yes, the sequel is a bad as you think it is.

Told you so.

Jackie Earle Haley is enjoying a huge comeback right now. He was nominated for an Academy Award for Little Children and will be playing Rorshark in the Watchmen movie, which is an incredible coup of a role for an actor to get.
