The Italian Job is like........................

.....................................

So insane. It's sort of like Ocean's Eleven (a great movie) in that there is a huge, meticulously planned heist, but with the excessive unbelievability of Bad Boys II. For instance, in one scene Mark Wahlberg is trying to drive his turbo-powered Mini Cooper out of a tiny dead end, and then in flies Edward Norton. In a helicopter. They also take control of Los Angeles' entire traffic system. Ridiculous.

Also, YOU'LL NEVER SHUT DOWN THE REAL NAPSTER!!

<Ken> When you apply at In-N-Out you have to pick from four character classes.
<me> I'll be the elf.
<Noah> I'll be the short, fat guy.
<Ken> I'll be the guy who spills ketchup all over the trash can.
<me> That is actually a fifth, hidden character class.
<Noah> I unlocked it.

If you're interested in something a little less insane than The Italian Job, you could go see Gigantic: A Tale of Two Johns, which I went to go see on Saturday with visiting They Might Be Giants aficionado, Morgan. This is a must-see for anyone who considers themselves a fan. Lots of great interviews, "behind-the-scenes" clips and concert performances. Non-fans' mileage may vary. It was definitely worth my ticket money and having to endure the horrible, horrible theater muzak, though.
