]]> <![CDATA[John Cusack Disaster Reaffirms Iraq Films' Special Place in America's Heart]]> I actually dreamed last night that I had a childish ghostbusters themed birthday party in a nature park, and that John Cusack showed up and half heartedly acted out a party play as one of the ghostbusters with Harold Ramis and Dan Ackroyd. Far from being amazing, it was oddly depressing in tone.

I am certain it was a metaphor for the death of my youthful idealism, and that Cusack's place in it had a lot to do with where he started and where he's ended up.

Seriously?To be honest,it never actually bothered me all that much until I'd watched Max for maybe the 847th time and then I was like, 'hang on, what the...!''Yeah, I'm sharp like that.
I dunno, I'm torn.I haven't watched it in about 3 years so maybe I'll watch it again and then all of this guff I'm spouting will be redundant and I'll want to have his children again.Sadly, he will still not want to have mine.Oh well...

But it had the odd moment of world-weary Cusack greatness -- just a line here and there, a look, the cock of an eyebrow, a fleeting bit of brilliant dialogue that you knew he wrote -- that made sitting through all the rest quite worth it.

And another weird thing? Hilary Duff was pretty good.

And Calraigh? I have friends who thought the lemonade line was one of the best Cusack lines ever. Go figure!

]]> <![CDATA[John Cusack Disaster Reaffirms Iraq Films' Special Place in America's Heart]]> Yeahhh, I've had cause to re-examine my previous devotion to Cusack's 'oeuvre' and I'm not entirely convinced that he hasn't just been acting like a 'really cool guy' all these years.That's because a 'really cool guy' would not make 'Must Love Dogs', The Martian Child' and say the line in a movie about young Hitler, ''C'mon Hitler, I'll buy you a glass of lemonade.''

Now I loved 'Max', I thought it was sexiest thing Cusack ever did but Jesus CHRIST almighty.What, WHAT, goes through his mind when he reads these scripts?His is truly, a mind of sphinx-like qualities.
