Home of the Brave

If you're looking for movies to avoid this holiday season, I get you started over at Pajiba. Their review of Rocky Balboa is also due up later today, and I'm eager to read it. I saw a preview the other night, and it actually looked (gulp) halfway decent. Which reminds me of a moment earlier in the week that I loved -- I was flipping through a magazine and came to a full-page ad for it. My friend pointed inquisitively, and I said, "That's the new Rocky movie." She innocently asked, "Oh, who's playing Rocky?" Indeed.
