Possibly my favorite development of the summer . . .

I just saw the trailer for this, and it looks horrible.

I'm talking one schtick pony quality over quantity.

Ummm, I like Underdog?

Seriously, the movie may be horrible - but it's just about the last property from that era to be made into a movie. All that's left now are Hong Kong Phooey and Grape Ape. After they make those two, maybe Hollywood can stop co-opting my childhood and get back to making creative, thought-provoking films.

Plus Jason Lee can play just about anything - he's suffering from a glut of roles - everyone wants him in their movie, so he takes roles that he maybe shouldn't.

Lee is definitely more talented than he gets credit for. He does have a bad choice in roles, though. I've got to agree. I've just seen some really stellar performances from him, so a lot of the stuff he picks makes me sad.

The 3rd verse of a CatBox song I wrote:

Hey there shoe shine boy,
we thought that you should know
The pills that we've been sending
Are just a placebo
We're not in this business
to supply addicted dogs
But you've been kicking Simon's butt
on your own all along
and Sweet Polly loves a myth
You better go deal with it

Because you're free to rise
Free to fall
Free to fail, or rise up to your call
Does that scare you? It shouldn't at all
'Cause the victory is sweet
Standing on your own two feet
