A case of PBR can remove pants and loosen lips as good as anything, but of course its also good for bringing together some pals for pyramid construction and a possibly recurring trip to the local evil BB itself.
An American Carol (2008)
Personally, I'm not a Michael Moore hater - I find his films interesting and point-proving to my admittedly malleable noggin, though I don't bother to double check his facts like those internet hawks out there. Some people, however, wanna crucify the lard for being such a hypocritical d-bag, and I can understand that stance. Featuring Kevin Farley (Chris's brother), Leslie Nielsen, and Kelsey Grammar, Michael "Malone" gets run through the old Scrooge wringer, with a series of spirits pointing out the mistakes in his logic & presenting revealing histories and potential futures. Some good points are made regarding college professors and the film puts the recently highly revered Jimmy Carter in a very interesting light. I try to have an open mind, and I don't think I know enough about anything to have a political opinion worth mentioning, but I don't think I would have even given this a second glance without my more comedy-appreciative friend's insistence.
The Karate Kid (1984)
The case of PBR was about pilfered by the end of the first film, and the company was getting slightly out of hand, but even though I hadn't seen this before I think I gathered the gist of it, plus of course I knew the premise going in. It's definitely a good clean fun PG 80s coming of age flick with a good spicing of action. In particular I enjoyed the very neat, clever transition from slave labor to combat training. Fun fact - Pat Morita was a comedian in San Francisco, complete with slightly effiminate very American accent, and was originally thought to be a strange choice for the role, but the character he came up with seemingly out of nowhere is definitely one of those memorable father figures you won't forget.

I did conceed and buy flower (PS3 via PSN) today, and it's definitely more longevitous and enjoyable than the studio's predecessor flow. I'm only halfway through and it's already taken a strangely dark turn, and I anxiously await the hinted at meeting of the dual contrasting settings. Best sixaxis controls yet, I think. Now if I can just overcome the urge to trade in Soul Calibur IV for Street Fighter IV...
