A quick word about Fox Movie Channel

This is not one of the great movie stations on cable – they tend to play Cleopatra at the drop of a hat or play the same film about 35 times a month. But they have one special feature that is un-intentional comedy gold.

They have short feature called casting session. They interview the cast and the crew of a movie and they all plug the puppy talking about how good the script was how good the actors were, etc.

The comedy comes in when they are talking about a dog like Catwoman or more recently My Super Ex-Girlfriend. It’s funny in a grim sick way watching these professionals whore themselves to promote a dog of a film. Hell the best acting I ever saw Sharon Stone do was her talking about how Catwoman was a movie about a woman finding her power. Never cracked a smile.

You sit there and thing of the bad bad reviews and how the film has tanked and you watch them talk about how much fun it was to make My Super Ex-Girlfriend how it’s a twist on the classic romantic comedy and how the actors got along “a real ensemble”. Like it was “As good as it Gets” or something.

Like I said, funny if you’re in a grim mood.
