Woe to the man who ignores the recommendations of both Pclem and Orson Scott Card: I saw Dodgeball today. It was...not the worst movie I ever saw. Parts of it were actually really funny, especially the cameos, especially...well, I don't want to be accused of "spoiling" anything, as I so often am.

Other parts of it were pretty juvenile.

Basically, if you think there's any chance that you might like it, you will.

More important than Dodgeball, however was a realization I had during the previews, namely that the true impact of Fahrenheit 911 will come not through the (surprisingly high but still not enough to swing the election) numbers of people who actually go to see it, but through the much greater numbers of people who are forced to watch its incredibly effective trailer before other movies, like, say, Dodgeball.

I hadn't realized the trailer was in general circulation, as I'd only seen it before genre pieces like Supersize Me; I'm very glad it is. "Now watch this drive" will change some minds.
