Tuesday thoughts

-Been quite busy over the last few weeks, so the Top 50 movie list is certainly on the back burner. I'll get back to it sooner rather than later.

-Another Yankee season ends without a WS win. And frankly, the Yankees didn't deserve to win this year. Sure, they were much better in the second half, but this team needs rebuilding. Time to stop just playing free agent lotto and start rebuilding from inside the farm system. This may mean (gasp) not making the playoffs for a year or three, but in the long run, it'll be worth it. And the solution to the problem is NOT firing Torre; it's giving him the right pieces. I blame Cashman far more than I do Torre.

-Checked out "In Her Shoes" this weekend and just as I suspected, it's one of those rare chick flicks that actually is entertaining for men as well. Doesn't hurt to have Curtis Hanson manning the helm or having Cameron Diaz and Toni Collette playing the most un-Jewish Jews in the history of Film. Still worth checking out.

-Been very dissappointed in Curb Your Enthusiasm this season. Seems like Larry is obsessed with the whole religion issue and has been churning out alot of unfunny crap. This week's episode was the best of the bunch, and even it couldn't compare to the last season's lesser episodes.

-On the flipside, Extras is quickly becoming one of my favorite shows. The Ben Stiller episode was awesome, as was the Kate Winslett one. From what i understand, Samuel L. Jackson will be appearing this season as well.
