Lawrence gave Josh Huterson a concussion on the set of “The Hunger

Movies Out This Weekend
Hunger
Games - This is potentially the biggest movie of the year. I
guess that’s what you get when you pit 24 teens against each other in a
battle to the death. I read the books, I am going to see the movie.
OYIT’s new favorite actress Jennifer “J-Law” Lawrence stars as Katniss
Everdeen, a young woman who must fight other teens to the death. Woody
Harrelson is also in this, reprising his role as “Woody” from “Cheers.”
I thought it was weird that his character appeared in the novel, but I
guess it makes sense now that it is a movie.

Song of the Week
An 8 is pretty low on your exceedingly generous scale, is Young Adult not that good? I am SO proud to be the father of Hillary Duff's child, and to be Matthew Perry's biggest fan while on this website! The alternative title to Foxworthy's religious game show is 'You Are Not Smarter Than A Fifth Grader'!!
ReplyDeleteI have just been watching really good movies this week. I didn't give Garbage Pail Kids an 8. It was awful, but most of the other movies were really good.
Deletethank you for STICKING IT TO that awful garbage pail kids movie.
ReplyDeleteI shouldn't be saying anything about J-Law publicly, but I hope her movie does well this weekend.
The only reason Garbage Pail Kids got a 2 instead of a 1 was because for the first 30 minutes it was so befuddling that it was entertaining, but then it became excrutiating.
