The post in which I go off on Jude Law for no particular reason

Just when I thought that Jude Law's cruel reign over the movie theaters of America was going to be over with Martin Scorsese's Leo's-career-isn't-dead-no-really, Oscar-buzz-so-loud-its-deafening, Howard Hughes biopic The Aviator, IT'S NOT. It turns out that Jude has managed to dip his weiner into yet another 2004 feature film, Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events. Granted, it's only his mellifluous voice in the role of Lemony Snicket that will be featured in this one, BUT STILL. This man must be stopped! Since he faux-drawled his way onto the big screens this time last year in Cold Mountain, Jude has appeared in I Heart Huckabees, Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, Alfie, and Closer. With two more movies to go before the year wraps up. You'd think with all that exposure he'd be the one raking in the three Golden Globe nominations, and not Jamie Foxx. Speaking of, I think Mr. Foxx needs to fear the wrath of my poison keyboard next, 'cause the whole Twista-Kanye collaboration was really too much. STICK WITH THE ACTING, JAMIE. It's working for you.

And while I'm at it, SHAQUILLE, STICK WITH THE BASKETBALL. And RON ARTEST, I haven't heard your rap album yet, but I'm willing to bet IT SUCKS, TOO.

The reason I have Lemony Snicket on the brain is, incidentally, because BK and I have been volunteered to help chaperone a nine-year-old's birthday party this Friday, the central event of which will be the movie. So really, with THAT looming in my future, the blog entry possibilities are truly mind-boggling.
